The facility was immaculate and comfortable. Due to covid, we were unable to use a few facilities, but overall, the stay was excellent.

Katherine South Korea

The location is perfect if you are touring Seoul. The hotel is connected to the subway system. There are a bunch of restaurants and shopping feet away from the hotel. The staff and amenities are amazing.

So good food and service , check in staff so helpful for late checkout request.

Staff were very calm and accommodating organising everything I required with no fuss. Location is close to subway and TV and room entertainment system was amazing.

객실에 침대가 편안했고 샤워실도 잘되어있어 너무 좋았습니다. 라운지와 조식이 맛있었습니다.

Mihyeon South Korea

타블로 조식은 기대했던 것보다 종류도 많고 맛도 있었습니다. 느지막히 9시쯤 내려갔는데 대기가 빨리 빠져서 많이 기다리지 않고 이용했어요. 아, 그리고 직원분들이 다 너무 친절하셔서 좋았습니다. 얼리체크인 미리 요청했는데 객실 일찍 준비해주셨고, 룸 뷰도 장단점 설명해주시면서 추천해주시고 굉장히 다양한 요청을 많이 했던거같은데, 그때마다 흔쾌히 해주셔서 너무 기분좋았습니다. 서비스 면에서는 10점 만점도 아까운것같아요. 너무 감사드립니다.

Yeowon South Korea

조식과 룸서비스 !! 동대문쇼핑, 광장시장 빈대떡, 청계천산책 등 이 호텔에서만 도보로 경험할 수 있는 컨텐츠가 좋고 당연히 5성급 서비스라 수영장 객실상태 어메니티 모두 최상급.

Seunghee South Korea

위치 너무 좋고 시설들도 생각보다 엄청 깔끔해서 좋았어요! 그리고 침대 커서 너무 좋았어요ㅠㅠ

Minji South Korea

라운지에서 커피를 마시고 싶을때 마실수있어서 좋았고 테이크아웃 할 수 있게 마련되어 있어서 좋았어요

Suhee South Korea

Комфортабельный и чистый номер. Очень понравилась такая мелочь как одноразовые тапочки. Вкусный завтрак ради которого стоит проснуться пораньше. Очень хороший персонал,готовый удовлетворить любую просьбу. Прекрасное расположение рядом с достопримечательностями. Много развлечений на территории самого отеля. Однозначно рекомендую.
