"Absolutely amazing and totally recommended. The house is clean, traditional in one way so we can really experience traditional living in Korean’s house but also modern bath room. The kitchen is complete and the host provided food / breakfast which is very helpful. It is so close to palace so we can enjoy all traditional things around here. So happy to stay in this beautiful hanok."

"Loved our stay here. Very helpful staff, the pool was nice though the hot-tub was tepid at best. Gym was nice to have, laundry was great, room was huge and super clean, all the staff was super helpful."
"One of the very first hotels in Korea which predates even the Korean War, I first visited here as a kid in the late 70s when it was one of the top deluxe class hotels in Korea and came back for the first time since. The current version is an elite, state of the art, premium property with the highest level of service, even for Korean standards which are pretty high.
The gym is top notch rivaling most regular gyms, the food is top quality and the rooms are spacious and high tech.
But what separates this property is the service personnel from the front desk, gym staff, housekeeping, bell desk, but most of all the staff at the 20th floor lounge led by Ping. Everyone was very attentive and so pleasant and after a long 15 hour flight, the food and drinks at the lounge without having to venture far before going to bed was just what was needed.
Highly recommend this place - coming from someone who has had a very busy summer of travel to multiple countries."
"The staff were so friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean and spacious. The hotel had a cafe, restaurant, and laundry facilities. There were many coffee shops, convenient stores, and restaurants nearby. Bus stops and train stations are also close. I highly recommend this hotel!!"
"Overall it was great! I was a bit disappointed when we first arrived because the place was small and little walking space and the carpet inside the room is old. But the staff were just amazing and gave us great service. The sheets and bedding were so luxurious feeling which made up for some of the disappointment but overall the responsive as of housekeeping, the front staff, and security downstairs made up for it. It was also so nice to have a laundry machine there. It is a little bit of a walk to the main Myeongdong shopping but very doable. It’s also conveniently located by angelinus which has good cafe drinks and breads and also a 7 eleven. Overall we were happy. They accommodated us late check out also. "
