Seoul Hotels with Bars

With very good location, the hotel design is very stylish and comes with comprehensive facilities even with a very professional gym room! The room is spacious while the air con is not cool enough. Also the luggage storage handling is strange, no security at all, all luggage’s just kept at an open area. While the rest is all good.

My experience staying at this hotel was not very good. Since I was arriving late, the hotel informed me that I should use the self-check-in machine at the entrance. However, when I arrived, they didn’t tell me that they had already pre-arranged my check-in. They had placed an envelope with my room code at the entrance. If someone else had taken that envelope, wouldn’t they have been able to enter my room freely? The most disturbing part was the housekeeping staff in the morning. They kept knocking on my door repeatedly, asking if I needed cleaning, and even opened my door without permission. On the third day, when I was supposed to check out, I had requested a late checkout in advance and received approval from the front desk, with an additional fee. However, the housekeeping staff were not informed about this. They kept knocking on my door and even entered my room again. I explained to them that I had permission for a late checkout, but they repeatedly told me in English, very firmly and forcefully, that it was not possible and that I had to check out immediately. Overall, this was a terrible experience! The hotel did not even offer a single apology and just ignored the whole situation.

Connected to the Chungmuro station, this hotel’s location is superb, being near to most of the touristy attractions. Room was clean and the Front Office personnel were fluent in English and extremely helpful. Despite above, it’s worth noting that there would be some waiting for the lifts. The room size for three may be a little cramped too. The TV is also fixed, that is, unable to adjust and the side bed does not have a good view of it

If taking subway you can head to exit 10 of jamsil station and you can go through the lotte world mall before street level, head straight, take the escalator next to the aquarium up, exit the main doors and cross the road to the left for the hotel. (It it not sheltered/ connected directly between the mall/ station and hotel). We took the side entrance lift up to the reception but if you go further down you’ll see the main car drop off and concierge. The staff service was really friendly, although at the check in reception we were given a list of rules and asked if we had any questions, so the hotel vibe felt quite formal and stiff. Was concerned about the rules on the swimming pool booking and bringing outside food in, but the staff around were kind and welcoming so we soon felt at ease. Was able to rent the required swim cap free of charge. Room was classy, spacious and bed and bath comfortable. We booked the lake view room but one can only see it at the side when nearer to the windows. We had indicated we were celebrating our wedding anniversary but there were no special greetings in the room or wishes at reception, which normally hotels would as part of their hospitality. The lake view from breakfast and the pool was beautiful! Heard it would be even more beautiful in spring! We enjoyed walking around the lake and exploring the restaurants on the other side. Great shopping location next to the lotte mall The swimming pool is small with one lane for laps and others for relaxing. There’s a heated jacuzzi outside and within the beautiful changing area was also has a hot bath and another neat amenities. The gym was huge and had so many machines! All in all a great and beautiful stay! Wish we stayed longer than one night! The only con is that you have the transfer lifts at the reception level each time you go out or in so you’ll just have to meet and greet a lot of people along the way.

We booked a triple room under residents and was happy with the facilities. Well equipped with water dispenser (which is my favourite), washer cum dryer, utensils etc. Room size was also super great for 3 persons, 8 luggages, and yet sufficient space to move around. Lots of wardrobe too. Location is super good, 3 mins walk to airport bus bus stop, 5-6 mins walk to DDP & train station. Near to Gwangja Market, Myeongdong. The toilet is huge too. Definitely preferred and recommended hotel if i revisit again. The only cons if they can fostered the shower & toilet glass door so that both can be used at the same time.

Def going back to this hotel! Perfect location! Very accessible! Right beside myeongdong shopping street, at the building’s ground floor there are convenient stores, a lululemon, and an olive young. It’s also right across the lotte dept store, also very close to subway and bus stops including the airport bus. The reception staff are friendly and can communicate well in english. They can even lend you an adaptor for your electronic devices, and you can leave your luggages at the lobby if you ever arrive/ check out early. most of all the rooms were clean and spacious!

Little bit disappointed with the promised upgrade. Turns out the room they upgraded to was smaller than the normal room. Had a few of my friends staying in the same hotel as we planned our trip together. Noticed our room at the corner was smaller and after reading the pass reviews.. it has happened before. They “upgraded” the floor but down sized the room. The photo u see is the room I stayed for 1 night (different from the website photos) before switching to another room. How unfortunate! Also I booked king sized bed but it was less than 1.7m in width. What standards are the king size bed for an international hotel brand like IHG. Having known I would have stayed at my regular hotel like the Mondrian. Facilities were basic.. service ok. But size of room for my first night was so small I couldn’t open my bag properly without blocking the walk way. Ruined my experience. Having to move in and out of my room. Only plus point is that it is a new hotel and super convenient- right beside the train station and airport bus stop. Will I come back.. not unless they promise not to mislead people.

Nice room, clean, staff very helpful… One regret: no restaurant in the hotel for dinner time… room service offer is very very limited for a stay of 3 nights!

The journey from subway to hotel was so easy to find and the staff was friendly. They all spoke good English - I asked questions and they were able to answer without any language issues. I reported there was a tiny problem with the flush and they were able to fix it right away!! The highlight of the trip was how they could let us keep the room for one more hour before checked out time, we so truly appreciated that! Of course the convenience store on the 1/f was so good ... you would not need to worry about being hungry or thirty and who doesnt visit a convenience store when in Seoul! The room was spacious and quiet, we got the view of Seoul Tower so it's another bonus! :) Definitely could book again for our next visit :)

The hotel is very convenient located at across Yongsan station walk distance with elevator access directly to bridge walkway. I stayed in the normal novotel ambassador deluxe room as well as the suit both are clean and have everything you need. Suit gives you free access to the spa area. Would recommend booking this hotel also due to friendliness and helping staff. They managed to get me early checking after switching rooms. Also the view is amazing as attached picture show.
