"We would give six stars if we could! This hotel is such a gem and we are so glad we booked it. My wife and I stayed for the first leg of our Korea trip and it was amazing. It is so conveniently close to two stops on Line 2 of the Seoul subway so we had no problem getting to anywhere we wanted. The surrounding area is soo charming with tons of little shops and the world-famous Gwangjang market is just a short walk away! The location is fantastic and we felt super comfortable and safe the entire time.
The room was so modern and impeccably clean and housekeeping did an excellent job every time. We made good use of the washer/dryer and the styler - very nice to have and they worked great. The room has such smart storage (walk-in closet, entry closet for luggage and shoes, a whole wall of storage as well. Staff was so nice and helpful with everything as well, we didn't have a single issue. We are already talking about booking if we do Seoul again next year! "

"Well designed, neat rooms, with plenty of natural light and views out. Great location for shops restaurants sightseeing. The convenience store downstairs is excellent. No frills eg paper cups in room only, order in iron etc. so you’re paying for the things that matter. "
"This is a beautiful hotel! We loved our room it had plenty of space and double sinks in the bathroom, which we really like. It was amazing service… every staff member was extremely friendly, helpful and kind. I especially loved our waitress in the morning at Maru restaurant, she remembered how we like our coffee and was so very nice. "
