Reviews

  • Benjamin from United States (9/10)

    The facilities were excellent and the staff was very accommodating. We were bumped up to a junior suite although we had booked a double room. It was a beautiful and comfortable space and a remarkable value for the money.

  • Nomadhistorian from Singapore (8/10)

    The location is just few minutes walk from the bus stop of airport bus 6011. The hotel has currency exchange machine which makes it so convenient to change foreigh currency to KRW. There are several bus stops near the hotel to explore other parts of the city. Hotel is just walking distance to the two main palaces. I will definitelt stay again in this hotel.

  • Tessie from Canada (9/10)

    Staff were very helpful and friendly

  • Ellen from United States (9/10)

    Orakai Daehakro is modern, clean and well-maintained. This street is a gem – it is conveniently situated near attractions and a lively street with ample food and shopping, but still not hectic or overly polluted with the smell of cigarettes, like other parts close to downtown Seoul can be. The concierge was excellent – professional, friendly and very helpful. One issue I ran across with hotels in Korea were that they were not as nice as advertised. Orakai Daehakro is exactly as shown and described and I highly recommend it.

  • Łukasz from Germany (9/10)

    It was impeccably spotless, the staff was always there to clean the room every day and replenish the facilities. They also had the best equipped gym in a hotel I've seen in my life. The machines looked as if they were just bought.

  • Jakub from Poland (9/10)

    I have booked this hotel last minute during my Asia trip and I know that it was the best option at that time. This hotel is quite a new building located close to Changgyeonggung Palace. There are 3 convenience store on that street. We had an opportunity to use a luggage storage in the hotel which was very helpful for us. Personal in this hotel was probably the best experience during our stay here. Especially, people working qt the reception were very friendly. I don't know the name of one receptionist but she should be awarded for being extremely kind and helped us a lot! Rooms were specious and almost immaculate with big TV with English – speaking channels and comfy beds. Really appreciate the leaflets and magazines about Seoul provided on the ground floor, Breakfast – there wasn't a huge or small amount of options to choose from but everything vas delicious and fresh. I really loved the amount of fruits there. The restaurant was always clean and there were always free seats no matter at what time you plan to pay a visit for your brekker there. I Was really satisfied that I have chosen this hotel & gonna visit it during my next trip to Asia. I Need to say thank you to orakai daehakro Hotel'S staff.
