Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent
"The breakfast was certainly a highlight of my stay, offering an extravagant buffet with a wide variety of hot, cold, and other options, including live stations for noodles and omelets. I truly enjoyed my time here. While the room was a bit compact for my extra-large suitcases, we managed quite well. Complimentary water was provided daily, and the restroom facilities were perfect, especially with the seated toilet, which I believe guests from Western countries would particularly appreciate. We were at 31st floor with amazing view."
