In the heart of the young, vibrant, and trendy Hongdae area. This hotel is perfect for people who wanna stay close to the action in the heart of a fun part of town. The property itself is very nice and the staff is very good, the youth of the clientele reminds me a little bit of a YOLO in New York City. The restaurant on the 21st floor is very good and the hotel is right next to a K-pop retail store that draws a lot of tourists. Highly recommend, especially for the younger skewing crowd who would like a little bit of luxury to go with their trip.

The heart of Hongdae

Great hotel in a great location . Only downside was that the rooftop bar which was supposed to be open until 1:00 am was already closed at 11pm . So no night cup for us . Apart from that - would definitely go back there when in Seoul

Elevator service is slow and very busy- can be frustrating. Pool access is not included even though we were told it was—there are pool tickets given for day of arrival which are no longer usable after 3 pm—which is check-in time! An additional cost was required to use the pool, which is very lovely but small. Area is very, very busy with teenagers. Staff is excellent.

Many aspects about this hotel were fantastic, but the advertising was misleading about the facilities. The pool is not included and is 30,000-40,000 krw per person. Don’t expect to be able to use it as you would in every other hotel I have ever visited.

Though labelled as a 4 star hotel, this is really a 3 star at best. Room space is tight, amenities are cheap and flimsy. Always a queue for elevators. Electrical outlets didn’t work. Won’t be back for sure.

Nice hotel and good location. BUT, an absolutely terrible ‘gym’, not even worth using. Pool requires 30k won per person to use and it’s average at best. Rooms okay. Staff were really great and it’s clean, but could easily find somewhere else to ‘stay’ for a lot cheaper as amenities don’t add value to the stay.
