Great room and facility. Walkable to restaurants/cafes/convenience stores. Front staff was very nice. I would recommend this hotel if you are staying around this area.
The Stanford is a modern hotel located a 40 to 50 minute bus ride from the more touristy ares at the center of Seoul. The area is modern business and high rise residential area with nice parks. It’s a nice quieter area with lots of interesting modern sculptures and architecture. There are lots of restaurants and coffee shops near by. A 15 to 20 minute walk away is a busy older restaurant and bar area.

The area was a business area, far away from the city center. No place to get coffee in the morning until after 7am. Although the hotel advertises free breakfast you have to make sure you ask and pay for it before paying for the room upfront otherwise its about 20,000 KRW per person. The buffet was good and plenty of different foods and drinks
The hotel itself is new and well maintained. The facility is clean and the gym is a standout feature, as it’s larger and better equipped than almost any hotel gym.
I only have two issues. One is value. Considering the location the price is about 15% too high. Finally the internet connectivity was unacceptable for a building of this size in this locale. Bouncing between 0 and 5 Mbit shows extreme incompetence from IT staff.
Hotel was nice and in a good location for where I was working. Only downside is the hotel has 2 restaurants. The Buffett was closed on my first night and private bookings for my remaining 3 nights. The Manhatten Grill was open but no staff. On my last night someone did appear but when I tried to order I was told no as my menu choice was for 2 people only and being on my own I couldn’t order it.
The hotel heavily advertises both these restaurants but clearly not designed for hotel guests.
There were food options outside but as temperatures were -13 and snow / ice i didn’t want to go outside…but had no choice if i wanted to eat.

Great gym, poor air conditioning experience
I enjoyed the location of the hotel in proximity to my work, but my air conditioner didn’t work properly the entirety of my stay. I called about it, but it was never repaired. I am not sure if all of the rooms have a set point temperature that doesn't go below 25 celcius, but overall I found the hotel to be nice but a little too hot. The gym is also wonderful and so I would stay again- especially with the location and if they can fix the air conditioners!
Clean room, hotel is in good condition. The location is good for business travelers. If you need metro, the closest and one is Susaek station. You need to walk 10-15 minutes. For bus 10 minutes (but you need to buy a tmoney card before at 7/11 or cu). We didn't take breakfast, so I can't tell anything. But gorgonzolla pizza in the bar is nice. Check-in and check-out is easy. You can find small korean and european restaurants and cafes near hotel.

There are hair in the shower tub. I think cleaning is not perfect. And staff in the fitness center is amateur so I can’t satisfy his service. Also room was a little cold.
