LOTTE City Hotel Gimpo Airport

LOTTE City Hotel Gimpo Airport Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard about LOTTE City Hotel Gimpo Airport, I figured it was just another forgettable airport hotel where you crash for a few hours between flights. But you know what? I was actually pleasantly surprised by this place. It’s one of those 3-star properties that punches way above its weight, and with an 8.5 rating, there’s clearly something they’re doing right.

The thing about staying near Gimpo is that most people think it’s all industrial and boring, but honestly, this area has grown on me. The hotel sits in this interesting spot where you’re close enough to the airport that you can literally hear the planes (which I found oddly comforting – that low hum reminds you that adventure is just minutes away), but far enough that it doesn’t feel sterile or disconnected from real Korean life. What struck me most was how the staff genuinely seemed to care – not in that over-the-top way that feels fake, but more like they actually wanted to help you figure out your travel day. The lobby has this clean, modern vibe without being cold, and I noticed they keep the temperature just right, which sounds small but matters when you’re dealing with jet lag.

The rooms are what I’d call “smartly designed” – they’re not huge, but everything has its place, and the beds are surprisingly comfortable for a 3-star spot. I mean, I’ve stayed in pricier places with worse mattresses. The bathroom was spotless, good water pressure, and they stock those little amenities that make you feel taken care of. What really won me over though was the practical stuff – the WiFi actually works (fast enough for video calls, which isn’t always a given), there are plenty of outlets near the bed, and the blackout curtains do their job if you need to sleep during the day. The breakfast isn’t going to blow your mind, but it’s solid – a mix of Korean and Western options that fuel you up without breaking the bank. I particularly appreciated that they understand their guests are often dealing with weird schedules, so the front desk staff I encountered were patient with late check-ins and early departures. Look, this isn’t the kind of place you’d book for a romantic getaway, but if you need a reliable, comfortable base near Gimpo Airport – whether you’re catching an early domestic flight or just want to avoid the trek into Seoul proper – this LOTTE property delivers exactly what it promises, just done better than you’d expect.
