The hotel was gorgeous and so clean. It was somewhat confusing to have the reception lobby on the 20th floor, but we finally figured it out. We booked a Superior Room for 4 people (2 adults, 2 teenage children), yet to find the room only had a queen bed and a single bed. We asked how this room was meant for 4 people with these 2 beds, the staff had no answer, apology or recommendation for bringing a cot or alternative for their error. Otherwise, modern facilities, nice gym and quality breakfast. Very close to Dongdaemun Design Plaza and subway, very convenient. Lots of options for food/restaurants (which alot of metro Seoul has). Would come back again.

This property has 2 sides, a residential side and a hotel side. The lobby to check in is on the 20th floor. This hotel is in a quieter area but only about a minute walk to the subway. Also, there are many restaurants nearby. If you like a good deal for shopping for clothes this area is the place to be. This area specializes in wholesale clothing and accessories and many sell to the public. These tend to open after 8 pm. There are many day time retail places too. This hotel is very new and the rooms are quite spacious and comfortable. I upgraded to the breakfast buffet and it was worth it. There is also an indoor pool that the kids will love. I was originally going to stay in Myeongdong which is super busy. Myendong is only about 15 min away by subway. The staff are friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend staying at this hotel.
