Hotels near COEX Aquarium in Seoul

Our stay was perfect, and it all started with the incredible front desk team. After a long-haul flight from the US, we arrived in Seoul exhausted. We knew check-in wasn't until 3 PM, but the staff were so thoughtful and proactively checked to see if a room was available. They kindly offered us an early check-in, which was an absolute lifesaver and allowed us to recharge immediately. A special shout-out to the staff member who also noticed I had two separate bookings for my 4-night stay and seamlessly arranged to keep me in the same room—such careful attention to detail! Location-wise, this hotel is unbeatable. It’s steps away from the metro and the airport bus stop, making transfers a breeze. Plus, the neighborhood is buzzing with great restaurants and unique boutiques—perfect for shopping and eating to your heart's content. We can't wait to come back!

The location is excellen with several train stations nearby, making it very convenient! I would consider staying here again on my next trip! The only thing that bothered me was that a sewage smell started filling the bathroom from the second night of my stay... The cups provided in the room are paper cups so guests who prefer regular cups may want to bring their own. It was also very convenient that I could store my suitcase in a locker inside the hotel even after checking out!

All good and everything is meet my expectations for the room cleaniness and services. The location is at the cetre of the market street and very convenient for street walking and shopping.Breakfast nice and variety of choices. Not much facilities like swimming pool or gym room for this hotel, but it is ok as i don't use it usually. The only bad is taxi cannot reach direct to this hotel and you have to carry your heavy luggage to the main road for the taxi.

The hotel's location is excellent. It's very close to Sinsa Subway Station, and if you stick to the main road, there's no steep hill like some photos online might suggest. It's right next to Seoul Forest, and you can walk to Apgujeong in about 10-15 minutes. There's also a three-story Olive Young just a few minutes' walk from the hotel, which is super convenient! While the rooms aren't huge, the soundproofing is pretty good, and the shower water pressure is absolutely fantastic! If you stay here, definitely make sure to check out the cafe on the top floor – the views are amazing. Overall, highly recommend. (Pics 1 & 2: Hotel rooftop cafe/bar.

The room is small and a little boring but you’re paying for the location, and it’s comfortable and clean. There’s a good beer bar, Seoulista, on the ground floor. There’s is an aerial walkway connected, which goes to Seoul Station. You can also use the metro Exit 7 (I think) but it will charge you just for walking through if you are coming from the AirPort Express. The breakfast arrangements are quite eccentric, but I had a good breakfast.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel during my trip to Seoul. The hotel was nice and clean, and the check-in process was fast and smooth, which made arrival stress-free. Although the room was a bit small, it was still comfortable enough for 3 people. One of the highlights is the location, there are plenty of food stalls around the hotel, offering authentic local bites without the overwhelming crowds you’d find in Myeongdong. Personally, I found this area much more enjoyable and relaxing. The metro station is just a 3-minute walk away, making it very convenient to explore the city. Travel Tip: From the airport, take the train to Seoul Station (either normal or express), then transfer to the blue line to Chungmuro Station. If you’re carrying luggage, Exit 5 is the best choice since it has an escalator — just walk toward Starbucks. Otherwise, Exit 7 is a quicker option. Overall, I would recommend this hotel for travelers looking for a clean, convenient, and well-located stay in Seoul.

The location is good if you want peace, since it's close to Bukhansan National Park and not city centre. The room is very spacious, but the cleanliness was so-so. I found someone's hair on the bedside table, and the tiles in the bathroom weren't very clean. I guess it's what you get for the price. If you're a budget traveller, it's a good choice, if you want something more, look for other places. But the view was amazing.

It's always a nice stay here! The location is very great, olive young is downstairs , and the subway station also downstairs, it's near the airport bus stop too! They have bidet and the toilet is scpacious, the room also spacious, you can store many luggages, they have tables and chairs too for you to eat or have some work, their receptionist lobby and all the staff also very helpful during my stay, definitely recommended, not to mention they have 24h convenient store at the 3rd floor and laundry room

It's not really excellent but You get what you payed for. Aside from they only provide small size face towels. My only complain is they should no longer provide towels with discolorations and stains. Check in is strict 3pm Check out is 11am No elevator No own kettle inside the room but u can use the pantry on the 4th floor with microwave. Near subway station line9 naebang.

Great location, with a subway station and bus stops nearby. The room is tiny, like a goshiwon (a type of small, affordable room often found in Korea), only suitable for one person. The entire check-in process is self-service, making it ideal for a quick one-night stay.
