This hotel is perfectly situated in Insadong. The lovely shops and cafés are just acriss the stree in Ikseon-dong! The laundry facilities are comfortable and the roof top has a wonderful space to gather. There is a beautiful view of Namsan Tower! I highly recommend this hotel, and will definitely stay here again on my next visit ro Seoul.

This hotel is as good as expected. Nothing more nothing less. Considering the location and high time of the sight season, the price is fair but as for hotel ranking three stars, the cost performance is as described above.

This is the place you want to stay. Spotlessly clean from the rooftop garden down to the laundry room in the basement. The only negative is that many large bus groups are coming and going many times, so the desk and lobby area gets very congested.,

Now that we know. Seoul marathon 2024 may be the reason why this tourist hotel is packed. Or, Halloween Friday is the major attraction of young tourists from vicinity. The location is very convenient but it took us 1 & half hour on taxi to go to ICN. If there were airport shuttle service or concierge to give us more idea about Seoul marathon 2024, we would have been better off. The service from the front desk is good. Hot bath and gym are very good. Room is fair.
