This is one of the best hotels in Insadong

Our brief stay at ibis Ambassador Seoul Insadong was top notch! Upon arriving to the hotel, the front desk staff greeted and welcomed us warmly. We were quickly checked in and given early access to our room. The lobby was very clean and well organized as were the restrooms on the first floor. The seating area has a great view of the street. Hotel location is excellent-it is walking distance to many places of interest for visitors.

Great newly renovated hotel. Staff is excellent. What we loved most was how we didn’t hear other guests in the next room. Would have loved to have a better shower door that was easier to close and perhaps a shelf for my own toiletries in the shower. Breakfast was ok, we were there 3 days and there’s almost zero variety of food items. The scrambled eggs seemed a little runny too.

The air conditioning barely kept my room cool. I’ve stayed at the Ibis Myeongdong, Ibis Styles Myeongdong, and Ibis Busan City Centre. They all have better aircon. Otherwise, my stay was great!

Employees are helpful. The room temperature was 24.5 degree while sleeping and had to call feont desk in the middle of the night. A bed was not comfortable due to middle of the bed was sinking. The room is super small so no space to put luggages and bathroom is tiny.
