Location: First of all, it was located in front of the bar of Chungmuro Station, so the accessibility was very good! As soon as I got off the station, it was easy to find because it was right there, and it was easy to move to the subway. In addition, there are many food nearby, so I ordered it to be delivered in the evening. At night, I went out with my friends and played in my favorite bar. š» Room interior, cleanliness: First of all, the room stayed in a room for three people, but it was wider than I thought, so three people went to sleep. It was enough, very neat and clean. There was also a table, so it was easy to eat, and it was okay to bring a laptop and see the work! The bathroom is clean and Netflix is available (you need to use your own ID). There is a washing machine, induction, and sink, so you can cook and wash! (I haven't used it, but,) it was just new and tidy because the bathroom was just built. Is it a little unusual that the sink is on the outside? It wasn't uncomfortable, but it wasn't as noisy as Hongdae or Sinchon. It was nice to be quiet at night, not like a noisy downtown area, but because of its good accessibility and location, it was convenient to use public transportation and places to eat or cafes around. It was nice to have a lot! I stayed with my friends, but I think it would be suitable if you are looking for a place to stay for long-distance business trips or business purposes.. !

Location is fantastic! Just less than 100m walking distance to the famous Myeongdong shopping street and lots of restaurants around. Service was very professional and staff speaks fluent English. They even helped us do our laundry and arrange for a big van to send us to the airport since there are 6 of us. Only unfortunate part is the spa was a waste of space especially for big families and instead of a spa should have more toilets for a room that accommodates 6 person instead of just 1 toilet! Anyway, will still highly recommend this hotel to everyone!!!

I have decided to stay here again because of the hotel location near subway and airport bus . there are clean rooms . But this time, The one was made me not impressed is the air conditioner doesnāt OK! I had read the reviews from travelers which it to be true !The air conditioner in the room is not cool at all. We've tried turning down the temperature, but it's still so hot, we can't breathe, we can't sleep. We have to sleep with the window open every night to let the cold wind outside blow the air in instead. The mattress is too hard and not firm.

I spent 4 nights at ibis hotel, one of the lady at the front desk who can speak good English, and she was really nice, I was so grateful.
My room was at 30/F, the view was awesome! It was clean, but the two cushions on my bed were super smellyā¦ I wish the housekeeper could have noticed and changed the cover. The location of the hotel was great, it took me around 5mins walk from Yongsan Station exit 3 across the bridge to the hotel. Yongsan station is close to Sinyongsan station, so there is another choice if you travel to other line. I wanted to put this information here because when I was using the google map, it couldnāt give me an accurate walking direction. So hope this could help those who wanted to stay in this hotel.
Overall experience I would say not bad, but compared to the other hotels located at Hongdae that I have stayed in the past, I think those are more convenient.

In the middle of Hongdaeās nightlife, you are close to the action. Can be a bit loud on weekends, and I recommend getting rooms further from the bathroom to sleep in peace. Very close to a lot of cool vintage shops, small restaurants, bars and awesome cafĆ©s. Staff was nice and spoke English!

Overall it was a decent stay at the GM JS boutique especially for the price. Service and amenities were standard - staff were polite & hotel room had the basic amenities you needā¦thereās extra charge of 1000 KRW if you use the toiletries though, ie shampoo, toothbrush, etcā¦
One thing we noticed when we entered though was the smoke smell, perhaps it had something to do with ventilation or pipes.. it was gone the day after. It was also quite dusty so our all allergies were definitely triggered for the first few daysā¦ it would be great if the room could be cleaner as well, there were some blotches on the wall/cabinet.
In terms of location, itās near a lot of restaurants, convenience stores, bus & subway station, which was good. If youāre planning on going around tourist areas, ie Hongdae, Myeongdong, Gangnam, area, the location is quite far though. When we tried to take taxis back to our accommodation, some refused as they say they donāt plan to go that farā¦
Size of the room was quite good, spacious enough for 2 people and open up your luggage. Thereās a study table with chair and a small coffee table with chair. Bed was quite comfortable. Bathroom was also spacious with a smart toilet (seat is also heated) & bidet.
Would recommend this hotel for a budget friendly one & good for the price!

The hotel was nice than I expected. The location is great being by the subway/KTX station. There are lots of restaurants nearby. You can also take the airport limousine from the station.
It was nice having a daily complimentary beverage at the bar. The breakfast was quite nice too although there could have been more of a fruit selection. The best part of the room was the Japanese style toilet seat:

GGrace KuangylHotel is located near anguk station. Just a little 5mins walk from the hotel. very near insadong and many food places.
Below the main hotel there are some retail shops and restaurant & GS25(but it seems like the GS25 there is automated cashier or something because you cant jus go in as you wish). But there is another nearby GS25 jus a few abt 2 mins walk down on the way to subway.
Did not take the airport bus because I was rushing for time. Although the Hotel told me that it will be a 5mins walk, but I personally would not recommend if you have big large suitcases because you got to pass through humans as that area is pretty busy in the day. But it is still convenient if you want to take and a much cheaper option. (i would recommend if you take airport bus if you arrive late night)
Hotel room is big and clean & there is mountian view too! Never expect it from a city hotel. I requested for a high floor and was glad they accede to my request. However, I think i requested for a standing shower room too last minute, thus, they still assign me a bathtub room. But thats ok, I just make do with it. Basic amenities all provided (except disposable ones due to korea's law)
They are quite strict with check in time, but I manage to store my luggage at their lockers and did a wash up before heading out for lunch. So if you arrive early, do prepare some small travel cleanser or a fresh clothes in your bagpack so that you wont have to dig your luggage.
overall, im quite happy with my stay and would definitely consider coming back to this hotel.

GGuest UserCons:
First, it was disappointed to find out the shower gel dispenser is broken by ourselves when I was naked standing in the shower room. I would assume the staff should know the condition of the room. I wish the front desk informed me when I checked in and ask if I could accept it or not since I pay no less than others.
Second, the refrigerator has the smallest capacity Iāve ever seen.
Pros:
Room is clean and spacious enough for 2 luggage. Staff are nice. They smile and greet. Location is incredible, super convenient! Kinda quiet in a noisy neighborhood. The subway station is right under the building. Itās easy to reach to most of attractions and can go through to the airport without any transfer.
Money exchanging machine is available in the lobby.

AAnonymous UserLocation is more suitable for business travellers who want to work & commute in financial district, otherwise thereās not much to do in this whole area as itās very hard to find a decent or simple eatery which opens near late night compared to living in Dongdaemun and Gangnam. Our room is located high and we can have a glance of the nearby buildings and overlooked further. They donāt provide full amenities compared to 2 other 5-stars hotels we had stayed in during this trip. So prep yourself with our necessary amenities like earbuds, combs, earplugs, sewing kits if needed in any case..
The hotel room is quite spacious and toilet is equipped with a bathtub which we didnāt get to utilise at all but my child had once because she wanted to play a bath bomb for 10 mins. Other items like ironing board, iron, Nespresso coffee machine, distilled water bottles, beverages and condiments, safe box, fridge were all provided.
And I find it quite troubling as there were too many ābig-countryā tourists either staying in the hotel or those living in Seoul going to the Hyundai Seoul mall to buy luxury goods. And the entire mall is crazily flooded and packed with youngsters on the day of our check-in and the next day. Some came to window-shop while most others came in for food and perhaps after meals, to seek shelter and shield from the cold. You wonāt be believed this you canāt even find a place to eat as all fast food eateries, snacks counters and restaurants were fully unavailable. There were basically long queues everywhere you go. Ended up my super famished poor child had to walk a long way with us & venture out in the cold to find any available restaurant to have our dinner.
International breakfast is served daily at L5 and the buffet spread is limited compared to the one we stayed & had in Dongdaemun. We had to pay additional 55,000KRW (SGD55) per day for our young child to dine in with us as her breakfast was not included in our accommodation package. I think itās really too expensive and given that we always came down only at 9.30am and the breakfast stopped at 10am sharp. The food she always had was a small bowl of cereal, 4 small bite-sized hash-browns and a glass of milk only where she had to eat fast within 30mins before they closed for the day. For such price paid, itās totally not worth it and we canāt avoid paying lesser despite they knew we only had 30 mins left to dine.
Overall the concierge service crewsā attitude and professionalism were excellent and Fairmont had the best staffs with great service i encountered during our 3 weeks stay across 3 different 5-stars hotels. I wished I will have another chance to stay here again but the price for each night is SGD450++, which is really expensive.

GGuest UserWe enjoyed our room the most and felt that we had a good night's rest here. This is a semi budget friendly hotel that is close to the palace/park areas of Seoul. The room was clean and well appointed with two comfy beds, two good pillows per bed, a chair, cabinets and drawers to store stuff, a big tv, robes and sandals. The bathroom was nice too with good shower pressure and one of those shower valves where you can pick the temperature you want. The toilet flushed quietly and there was plenty of shower space. There are frosted windows in the bathroom which help let in natural day light but if your partner uses it at night you will see the lights come on.
The location was decent but the metro was further than expected. When we booked trip.com showed us that it was 330m from Dongmyo Station but it was actually closest to jongno 5 entrance 2 which was a 10 minute walk away from the hotel. The palace and Hanbok areas are very close to the hotel and there are frequent busses in the area to take you to the major attractions and areas. Nearby the hotel there are many convenience stores but there are limited restaurant options outside of coffee shops.
The breakfast at the hotel was ok. We found there was a good variety but if you went too early (7:30 am) nothing was out yet and if you went later (8:30) everything was limited. The hot items were not as hot as we liked them to be despite the heaters so it might be worth getting early and getting your food when it comes out so it is nice and hot. There were scrambled eggs, fried eggs, marbled cheese the one day, stuff to make salad, an onion soup, mushroom soup, fried rice, a hot vegetable (one day it was potato and the next it was mushrooms), hot dogs, cut up fruit, bread/toaster, cut up muffins, orange juice, coffee and tea. There was enough to get by and there are pricey a la carte options. The restaurant was a little drafty when we went but it was just enough to get us started each day.
The staff at the hotel were friendly and allowed us to store our baggage when we arrived early so we could go out and explore the city. When we actually checked in it was smooth and quick. The elevators are a little tricky at the hotel and you have to pay attention to which elevator is closest to you and press that button. There are two elevators but there are two separate buttons to call them so it is worthwhile looking where the elevators are and choosing accordingly. The hotel also has a coin laundry facility and a meeting area. The lobby is also nicely appointed with furniture and a small drinks shop but being there in December we wouldn't want to hang out there long.

OorbitantOne thing to keep in mind is that early check-in and late check-out come with additional charges. I paid for 2 extra hours to check in early and ended up extending another night to accommodate a late check-out at 8 pm.
Donāt expect typical concierge services like at hotels, as the check-in process is entirely self-service. The online customer service can be challenging, especially if you donāt read Korean. However, you can walk to their office on street level at the corner if you need assistance in person.
Overall, if youāre looking for a clean, well-equipped, and conveniently located place in Gangnam with a sense of independence, this is a great option. Just be prepared for the absence of standard hotel services and potential extra costs for early/late check-ins and basic toiletries.

SSharnieItās smaller than I had imagined, husband couldnāt lift his arms properly in the tight shower booth. Fire alarm went off at 3am and the hotel worker looked busy checking for a fire himself. After alarm kept blaring for 20 mins my husband decided to call emergency, firefighters arrived within a few mins. Turned out to be a false alarm but it couldāve been over a lot quicker if the hotel worker called emergency first.

GGuest UserA very simple 3 star hotel very close to Seoul Station which is its main advantage.
Very small room gives you some Japanese vibes. That's also supported by the toilet. There was some USB socket broken, though it didn't deliver any problem.
If you're an individual that needs a one night stay in Seoul - the Manu Hotel is quite a good choice. Plenty of the shops and cafes in vicinity. Close to Namdaemun Market and the street. The Seoulista restaraunt or bar (I'd better call it a bar) - is ok for late dinner if you don't want to look for anything else.
Some reviewers wrote about homeless people on the way from Seoul station (right in front actually) to the hotel. Though I didn't find the ācleanā pass to the walkway (from the station) and had to encounter them, I don't see any problem - there's a police station right there. Had a small problem finding a way on top of the walkway as the lift is a bit hidden (but you have to be complete ***** not finding it).
Pros:
- Quite cheap
- Close to Seoul Station
- Lot's of cafes and shops around
Cons
- Small rooms.

4442sanaaeI loved the fact that the location is perfect for a quite night as well as itās so closed to Namsan tower for a beautiful walk in morning, Myeongdong for shopping and sightseeing in evening time and many places I can get to in less than 15 mins The guest house is perfectly clean , they have a healthy breakfast as well as a projector where I played my favorite movies at night before heading to sleep. The family are so nice and always there to help me with everything I needed ^_^ I recommend this place for long term and short term stays~~
