Since the hotel did the renovation, it has become quite terrible: nothing works in the rooms, the power sockets, the water in the bathtub and sink doesn't go away. They have small posters in the bathroom saying the hotel is going green to avoid single use plastic, but they don't have places to re fill water to drink, therefore they give you plastic water bottles in the lobby (contradictory). the rooms have very dim light. I use to love this hotel, but you can tell they are not putting much attention into it. won't be coming back.

Recently redone

Lovely decor & spacious room AND bathroom--well, it's a normal sized room by US standards; much more spacious having come from Japan. Not far from Itaewon metro station & on the edge of trendy Hannam neighborhood.

As it turns out, Itaewon is a great party area, and this hotel is located only a few blocks from the nightlife scene which also means you avoid the noise. Reviews for the Hamilton hotel literally in the nightlife area complain of late night noise. Had no noise issues here. Very nice, renovated clean rooms w excellent service. Most importantly the AC was excellent. I'll never travel to Seoul in August again. The humidity is brutal. Only criticism is the dark hallways which is just a downer vibe. FYI the sports channels start at 100 which i mostly watched bc you don't really need to know Korean. Also, channel 53 plays kpop.

Nice Boutique Hotel in Formerly Fun Area

Overall, the stay was nice. Clean hotel, amazing helpful/knowledgeable front-desk. The sheets could have been softer and might have been nice to have an iron/ironing board in the room. The gym was decently equipped for a small hotel. If you need to be in Itaewon, this hotel should be on your short list. My first visit back to Korea in 7 years and post-pandemic, I'd highly recommend exploring other areas to stay. Lots of closed/empty stores, and the best restaurants are gone--there are a few clubs still open, but this area seems like a shadow of itself. Didn't feel unsafe, just eerily empty.
