To get to this hotel you need to catch the Airport Limousine bus 6015 from Incheon airport and it will take around 1hour 30 minutes to get to the hotel . Then you need to get off at Namdaemun market stop and go down the Namdaemun shopping complex underground and when you get to the other side you will see Ediya Coffee , once you see Ediya Coffee turn up the side street next to Ediya Coffee and you will the the hotel. When you arrive at the hotel you get to go through 3 sets of doors which is different and then you enter the lobby.

They then will explain all information to you about the hotel and if you arrive early before 3:00pm you leave your luggage in the lobby and walk around the area to get your bearings. Once you get your key card for your room you just take the lift up to your room. The room is big enough to have 2 luggage and 2 cabin bags with enough room to walk around and there is an air purifier in the room for you to use. The bathroom is a bit different as there is one sliding door for the toilet and the shower , but it is something that you can get used to over time. If you want can open your windows for some fresh air and look around the immediate area. The bed was big enough and quite comfortable. If you go down to B1 there is the breakfast restaurant if you want to have breakfast in the hotel in the morning. Also on B1 there is a gym if you want to exercise and also a laundry room with a washing machine and dryer. If you want to use the washing machine and dryer it will cost 4000 Won each but only can use credit card. In the lobby is a restaurant called Melo if you want to have dinner at the hotel in the evening. Overall it was a comfortable stay with no problems and the room was nice and clean when we arrived.

Great location, really close to Myeongdong walking street. I especially enjoyed the soak tub in the bathroom. My only gripe is that I hoped there were more options for pillows, I wasnt a fan of the ones provided. The breakfast is on B1 level and can get crowded at peak time but there is a good variety of food. You can make your own ramyeon which was neat. Behind the hotel there is also a road with lots of pubs with good prices, especially compared to the walking street.

A very conveniently located hotel with good facilities, comfortable and friendly staff. They even provided pajamas set. Reservation was easy and seamless. The reservation staff Judy Kim was very prompt with her replies and made everything perfect. Another plus point is that there is a coin laundry available at the basement which only cost KRW4000 for wash and another KRW4000 for dryer. Detergent and dry sheet os available at KRW1000. This is very convenient as we could do our laundry and dry for under SGD10. Only setback was the breakfast. Best to dine outside and not in the hotel as the food was not warm.

Quirky lobby. Nice space alloted for baggage storage . Many seats for those waiting for their ride share drivers. Location looks strategic but actually heart and soul of Myeongdong still a far reach it is not stones throw but a relaxed 10 minutes walk. Rooms not typical in design. Lots of updated design. Smart Tv and automated bidet available. No Nespresso machine which is norm in majority of Korean hotels . Outside the hotel is a 24 hr convenience store , typical of many Korean and Japanese hospitality set up. Breakfast buffet respectable, more of canteen like however. Staff are very polite, and eager to serve.

The hotel is located near tourist attractions and shopping malls. It's easy to travel and close to the subway. The hotel is old and the room isn't as clean as it should be. There's trash left by others. Breakfast is varied and includes Korean instant noodles. The hotel is decorated with cute LINE characters. Recommended for those who want to stay near Myeongdong.

The hotel is located at very quiet location (private street) but easy access to Myeongdong or City hall train station. There are a lot of restaurants surrounding and convenient stores (emart & 7-11). There is twosome and ediya nearby too. The hotel room size is comfortable and spacious. The room has bathtubs, shower area and toilet all partition properly. The only downside is the pillows are too soft and I have to stack 3 together. The room comes with air purify and aircon is cold enough for the summer weather. Overall satisfy with the stay and will consider coming back again.

Outstanding Hotel Experience – Highly Recommended! I had an absolutely amazing stay at this hotel and cannot recommend it enough! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and cared for. Their kindness, warmth, and exceptional level of service truly made a lasting impression. The hotel itself is beautiful and impeccably maintained. Everything was spotlessly clean, and all the facilities were excellent, modern, and very useful throughout my stay. My room was spacious, comfortable, and well-designed – a perfect place to relax after a long day. Breakfast was another highlight – delicious, fresh, and very diverse, with something for every taste. But most of all, it was the incredible team that made this stay unforgettable. Every single staff member I encountered was thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely friendly. It's rare to come across such exceptional service and hospitality. I would gladly return and recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and comfortable stay.
