LOTTE CITY HOTEL GURO
10/10 Excellent
"Lotte City Hotel Guro was a great hotel to stay at. The hotel is well kept and the staff was nice and very helpful. Location wise, it was between a 25 to 35-minute train ride from everywhere I wanted to go around Seoul. It was around a 5-10 minute walk away from the nearest train station. The neighborhood the hotel was based in had a lot to offer as well (convenience stores, malls, restaurants, etc.). The gym, outdoor terrace, and onsite laundromat were great. It is also right by a bus stop that takes you to ICN airport which was very convenient. Would stay here again."
Stanford Hotel Seoul
8/10 Good
"Stayed in a family suite. It was a great size and perfect for a family of four, our youngest, 7, shared the king bed with us."
