International area convenience

The Hamilton Hotel in Seoul is a convenient location for a stay in the international area away from downtown Seoul. The active nightlife there results in a lot of street noise, but the convenience to shopping, restaurants and other activities makes it worth the distraction. The Hamilton swimming pool opened during my stay, and the music during the afternoon is a bit much when the pool is right outside your window.

Fantastic Family Get a way/ Reunion

We had a great time in Seoul and the place and people were kind. We were centrally located which made it all the better in terms of sightseeing and shopping! We loved the food and the cost was reasonable. The Hamilton Hotel met our expectations and we were impressed how clean and their services from front desk to house keeping was the best. I would love to come back and stay with them. Thanks for having our 5 short day seem like a week's stay only because they cared for us. CD California, USA

I noticed that the places to dine are all the same in terms of quality and cost. They all serve very healthy choices and you do acquire the taste for kimchee at a very short time, it's their appetizer! Try it!

Poor staff attention and English

Poor staff attention and English skills. No concierge. Door staff were not around much of the time. Lots of shouting Koreans in the hall. No iron in the room, but a dirty one was delivered that stained my shirt. Overpriced for what you get, but if Eastern Block communist era inspired decor appeals, this could be the place for you.

Everything was really good about

Everything was really good about this hotel. The only thing is, if you expect to use the outdoor pool (it has its own bar, which I found to be awesome) it gets crowded during the dog days of summer (and they also charge a hefty admission for nonguests and a towel rental fee)

Location right on the subway station

Location right on the subway station in the restaurant district is very convenient. The hotel services/amnenities are nothing special, but considering Seoul prices, they are still ok.

全体的に良かったです。フロントのサービス、迅速な対応に満足でした。 韓国は初めてでしたのでホテルへの行き方がわかりませんでした。 帰りは、フロントでホテル前からリムジンバスがとおっていることを 聞き助かりました。 お部屋は清潔でしたが、1日目にダニにかまれ たことが唯一困った事でした。

Old hotel but very good location. The most worse part is no soundproof. Always hear the noise outside the room.
