"Great stay for a solo week in Seoul! Located on a quiet street, with lots of dining options close by.
Walkable to many iconic locations such as Insa-dong Culture Street, Changgyeonggung Palace, and Hanok Villages.
Easy self check-in process with a code to enter, which was very convenient. "
"This property is conveniently located and it is clean and comfortable. The only thing that bothered us a little was the construction (daily) and loud speakers (Sat morning only) noise in the early morning hours. Overall, it was a good stay for us."

"This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed in. If you’re staying in Seoul this is an absolute must, I will be committing to this hotel for any future stay.
Pros
Friendly and helpful staff
Central location near important subway lines
Tax free convenience store inside hotel
Superb cleanliness
Affordable rooms
Cons
The only con is that the rooms aren’t full kitted out with everyone you need right from day one. You will need to ask for pots and pans etc but this is completely understandable and hardly an issue"
"Location was excellent right in myeongdong shopping street. Made it really convenient to go out in the evening to go out and get the street food if you’re Hungry. The cathedral is also a walk away with nice cafes
I definitely recommend this place "
"Just wrapped up a ten night stay here and it was amazing. This is the first time I’ve left a hotel and not thought, “I can’t wait to sleep in my own bed.” Seriously, it was the best hotel stay of my life. Don’t get me started on the mattress and water pressure.
Highly recommend their restaurants, Boccalino and Maru. The service was consistently outstanding and the food was delicious.
And lastly, a shout-out to the housekeeping staff as well. Our room was extremely clean and well stocked, and the daily gifts during turndown service were something that we always looked forward to.
I 100% got what I paid for and I hope to be able to stay there again one day. 10/10 "
