This hotel is in the heart of Myeoungdong, close to everything but pretty dated. Nice view of Namsan tower but the window needed a cleaning and the room smelled weird. Everything was outdated and needed a fresh renovation. Big plus was the brunch downstairs. Food was really good with many options and the price was exceptionally good. The entrance to the hotel was a mess with picketers when we stayed there a big eye sore. I probably wouldn’t stay there again since there are so many options nearby at this price point.

The airport shuttle bus was just down the road from the hotel, very comfortable and probably faster than the taxi we used to get to the hotel. WiFi was very good. The room was very clean and comfortable. 2 reasons for not giving a full 5* review: lots of things left just inside and outside the hotel entrance for demonstrations because apparently the hotel let go some staff that they felt was not justified. I was also disappointed that I was charged for losing a room key - plastic card that is easily lost and won’t cost the hotel much.

We’ve been a repeat guests for Sejong. Really appreciate the hotel’s cleanliness and amenities. The room was clean, even housekeeping did a good job when we requested for our bed to be made. The only thing that didn’t change is the worker’s union protest, that seems on-going even before covid. Fortunately, they didn’t bother hotel guests but get a bit crowded when the protest at the lobby though.
