Reviews

  • Rabab from Oman (9/10)

    Location is excellent. Away from Myeongdong st. 10 mins by walking near Duty free mall. Also, unlimited water and minibar. Furthermore, GS25 is inside the hotel and a cafe and BK.

  • Wai from Canada (9/10)

    Clean, amazing beach front unobstructed view, wood floor, entrance area lower than main area so all shoes stay in mud zone

  • Khensani from South Africa (9/10)

    The hotel has only been open for a few weeks when we stayed there and everything was impeccable. The location is great as it’s opposite a market and a few minutes walk from the Myeong-dong shopping district.

  • Rabab from Oman (9/10)

    Second stay at Voco. I think the location and the cafes and restaurants beside the hotel makes it unique. Will stay again for sure.

  • Mehmet from Turkey (8/10)

    While the location of the hotel is excellent, being very close to Myeong-dong, Namdaemun Market, and Seoul Station, the fact that the garage was not free for guests was a significant shortcoming during my stay. Offering complimentary parking would make the overall experience even better.

  • Ciaran from United Kingdom (9/10)

  • Marilyn from Australia (9/10)

    Lovely staff, great breakfast, good cafe downstairs

  • Kadir from Spain (9/10)

    Breakfast was great and varied.

  • Loc from Australia (8/10)

    New and convenient location.

  • Dounia from France (9/10)

    the staff was really nice.
    the room was new and well furbished .
    the location next to the historical city center.
    1 mn from the shuttle bus to the airport and 2 mn walk from the station.
    I will definitely book this hotel again
