Very close to Kondae food street which is great for late night dining and drinking. Also next door to a mall with various shops. Great location, good gym facilities too. Stayed in a superior suite, massive room with more than enough space for a family of 4. Only issues encountered were the heating levels.

I love that it’s in a neighbourhood not too overwhelmed by tourists. Facilities are great, especially the gym. The location is fantastic too - there is an Olive Young and an MRT station side by side, across the street from The Classic 500. Lotte Departmental Store is just NEXT DOOR, and there are so many fantastic food hall options. There is also an 24 hr e-mart at the basement of the The Classic 500. You can tell The Classic 500 has been around for awhile and there's a lived in feel to it, it is very well maintained. They also have a very well equipped kitchen, fridge (two in fact), and a washing machine you can use.

Although I hope for more friendly greetings when we arrived at the property, the overall experience was better than I expected. Considering the location where it's not in the central Seoul nor gangnam district, access to bus and subway is so close, I hardly noticed any inconvinience roaming around the city. Also, due to its close proximity to a local college, it had a lot of walkable eateries close by somewhat reminded me of myungdong. A famous emart and lotte dept store being next door was an obvious plus as well. The hotel though the room looks like it has seen better days, equiped with a bed that is quite comfy and decorated with useful necessities to feel at home. I really appreciated a daily room service as it kept our stay feeling clean and cozy. Kudos to the service team. We also enjoyed using the spacious gym where equipments seemed well maintained. Therefore I'd give 4 stars to this 4 star hotel that it well deserves.

The staff spoke English and Korean. They helped me with the elevator and door because the keys are a bit of different style than other hotels. I also used business center for computer and printing some documents. They have several amazing amenities for their guests.

호텔이 넓고 지내기 정말 좋았습니다. 다른 모든 것은 다 좋았지만 저희가 묵었던 14층 복도에는 에어콘이 작동이 안된거처럼 더웠습니다. 모든 편의 시설이 주변 가까이에 다 있고 엘리베이터도 작동이 빠르고 가족 친구들 만나기에 좋은 곳이었습니다.

One of the best stays and will continue to choose this place in the future when in Seoul! Amazing space and the view was incredible from our floor. The only minor setback was the shower/water pressure. Overall, we loved it!

EXCELLENT! I just came back from Seoul for a 7 nights stay at The Classic 500 and we really fully enjoyed our stay! Firstly, we went to Seoul with a 2 year old toddler and the suite was really toddler friendly. They even provided highchair for me with was really nice! The suite was super well equipped and our room was cleaned up everyday. Our mineral water was also nicely replenished. The hotel itself is super accessible with lotte department store right next to the hotel and starlight. Literally everything you need is next door and we hardly had to venture far to get the things we need. The area is walking distance to Common Ground and Seongsu. There is already a Tasty Street next to the hotel and plenty of food choices. The Subway is also super near which is perfect. We would highly reccomend this place to families with kids.

Friendly staff, arranged transportation for pick up and drop off was easy with staff, suite for 5 was roomy with 1 queen 3 large twins for boys, metro station diagonal to hotel, night market right across from university, food was amazing everywhere, use google translate to type or speak is easy to communicate at mama pop stores, but most places had someone speaking English if needed. Bring your own detergent if using washing machine. You can use camera on google translate to follow directions. It’s a combo washer/dryer. There’s a Coffee Bean and another coffee/drink place called Atwosome on the first floor of hotel. Tons of pastry and coffee shops in walking distance. You can buy Tmoney card at the CŨ market on the street before heading into the metro-use for metro fare and bus fare. Each way for metro cost about 1500 won. You can add more money to card in the metro station. Took us a day to figure out the metro system, but a great way to get around. Great place to stay with huge living room to relax after a long day. Thank you!

As soon as we checked into our room, maintenance rang the bell to change the AC filters, which took some time. We found timing to be a bit odd and inconvenient. Secondly, our sink had visible green mold on the faucet, and the condition of our room was filthy (hair and dust found everywhere). Thirdly, we could very much hear the noise from outside the streets, not just from the guests next door/hallways. While I can’t speak for the entire building, our room was definitely not soundproof. Lastly, the design of the room was pretty inconvenient. There were no plug ins by the table to use our laptops, and the built in side tables were so far away from the bed. Some positives were lots of cafes and restaurants by the hotel, and the checkout process was quick.

Pros: Great location (across the street from a metro stop and a college, so tons of shopping/dining options). The rooms were spacious and clean with lots of amenities. TONS of storage. Good food options in the building too if you don't feel like leaving. Cons: No laundry detergent provided, no instructions in English for how to use laundry machine or microwave. We had a super spacious family suite but for sleeping arrangements, there were two full beds put together for 3 people and a third single bed wheeled in for the 4th person, which made the bedroom a little crowded. We asked for early checkout the night before, and they said we could stay as long as we needed to for an extra $8/hour, but then the next morning they told us we had to be out by noon, which was a little inconvenient. Front desk people were nice but very little English spoken here.

The hotel is within a block of 2 subway stations and next door to a large mall with restaurants and a theater. It is a 15 minute walk to the Han River and Ttukseom Park. The staff was so helpful with any requests. There is a convenience store downstairs for any last minute needs. The suite was huge with endless storage. The washer dryer was so convenient and easy to use. The only drawback was the air conditioning unit. It plays a chime every time it turns on and off. This woke me up all night long. In the bedroom, the AC controls have a blue light that comes on. It is very bright. Between that light, the red flashing light on the emergency pull and a red light in the ceiling, it felt like a disco at times.

낮엔 낡은게 눈에 보이는데, 밤엔 안보이는.
10층에 묵었는데, 구조나 야경은 좋았어요. 거실 소파베드랑 침구도 아늑했구요. 침대룸 하나, 거실과 반 분리된 공간에 침대 하나, 소파베드 까지 4명 잘 수 있었어요. 거실 반 분리된 공간 침대 가죽 프레임 너무 낡았어요. 심지어 반은 삭아서 끝이 벗겨지는.. ㅎ 4명으로 예약했음에도 불구하고, 샤워가운하고 수건은 세개밖에 준비 안되어 있어서 별도로 요청했구요. 4명 객실인데도 테이블 의자는 2개밖에 없어서 요청할까 하다가 말았네요. 코로나19 때문에 모든 부대시설은 운영되지 않고 있었어요. 그외에는 너무 좋았어요.
