Hotel right next to subway and more importantly the Airport Express train. One note on the subway, the hotel is just a few steps, literally, from the subway station, however if you want to #2 Green line you'll end up walking several hundred meters to the subway platform. But the below ground of Seoul is really cool with shopping and clean restrooms.
