Good hotel with great breakfast and good facilities. The room was large and comfortable. and has everything I would expect a hotel of this quality to provide.
Dominikus from Singapore (8/10)
Located on a riverside hill, great view, great vibes, and lush environment. Great place for hiking, staying calm, and have a great week. Getting around with the free shuttle is great. Walking down the hill for food and shops are exciting too.

I didn’t try the breakfastLynsey from United Kingdom (8/10)
Only stayed here for one night. Mixed feelings overall…it took us a very long time to work out where to park and where to check in. The place itself is a huge complex used for many things and we only had about an hour before we needed to leave to go to a cooking course so time was of the essence! Once we'd checked in though, the room was amazing, the view incredible, and the free beers and crisps in the minibar much appreciated! Insanely comfortable bed and we enjoyed the luxury feeling of the automatic blinds!
Kelvin from Singapore (9/10)
comfortable beds and room with balcony
Chan from Netherlands (9/10)
신선하고 맛있는 조식이었습니다. 한식, 중식, Continental Buffet, 다양한 빵을 즐길 수 있습니다.
호텔 객실에서 바라보는 River View가 환상적이었습니다.
수영장도 River View이고, 4층의 족욕이 가능한 곳도 환상의 View였습니다.
호텔 주변을 산책하여도 아주 좋아요. 보통 서울은 4월 10일즈음 벚꽃이 만개하는데, 올해는 날씨가 너무 더워서 벚꽃의 절정은 지났지만, 라일락나무 배롱나무 철쭉도 피고, 참 좋아요. 한강도 산책하다 보면 예쁘게 보여요.
그리고, 호텔 직원들도 친절하였으며, 잘 도와 주셔서 감사합니다.
