This hotel, located in Yongsan, Seoul, is not easily accessible without a car. Even though it's connected to a subway station, it requires some walking. However, the hotel facilities and breakfast are excellent. The view from the hotel is also very good. However, I'm not sure if the hotel blends well with the surrounding scenery.

This hotel has been the perfect stay. The room was clean and spacious with great views.
The staff was super friendly and it was easy to move around from the hotel to other locations due to the fact that it’s to close to a station. There’s also transport links to the airport from outside the hotel via the airport limousine bus, so overall, it’s very convenient.
Response from Property: Dear Andrea,Thank you for sharing your experience with Novotel Suites Ambassador Seoul Yongsan!We are very happy to hear that you had a perfect stay and that our location was very comfortable and convenient for you.We are looking forward to welcome you in our hotel and exceed your expectations in the near future.Best regards,Zarina, Guest Experience Manager

Overall the stay was very good with few minor details that could use improvement.
1. The hotel common areas had a very strong perfume smell - but this seemed typical in Korea? Not my thing.
2. The light turns on automatically in front of the room door, so if you got up to use the bathroom at night, it would turn on. I didn’t like that. I like to get up as dark as possible at night.
3. When we bought wine to in the bar to bring to our room, it could only come in plastic cups. We are not teenagers, we are adults who can take care of a glass of wine without breaking it - felt it was patronising and no do not want to drink wine from a plastic cup. And we didn’t want to drink it in the bar because of the perfume smell.
4. We came to the breakfast at 6:30 since we were in a hurry to go to the airport - and the staff was so slow, it took 6 minutes to be seated even though the restaurant was almost empty. They couldn’t find our room number on a paper list that looked very unorganised.
5. Would prefer bigger towels at the pool
Response from Property: Dear Guest,Thank you for your kind review of your stay at the Novotel Suites Ambassador Seoul Yongsan!We have taken your notes very seriously and will communicate with the departments in charge to see how can we improve our services. Unfortunately, regarding the perfume that is defused in the hotel lobby there is not much we can do since it is brand standards. But we will still try our best to improve it.Considering move-detection lighting in the room we would like to say sorry that we could not meet your needs. Please let us know during Check-in on your next stay with us that you would like to turn this option off and we will be happy to do it for you.The To-Go beverages are served in plastic cups for safety reasons, sorry that we could not provide you with the glass ones.And please be assured that an appropriate training for F&B will be provided.Thank you once again for the time you spent on the review. We really hope you will give us a second chance to show you the best service of our hotel.Have a great day!Best regards,ZarinaGuest Experience Manager

The towels are stained. When they make up the room, they did not sweep properly, clean the tables, refill shower gel and replace stained bedsheets. Breakfast is not value for money, very few variety.
