Stressful Stay

Hotel is easy to locate and accessible. But the hotel itself is outdated, hallway from elevator to room is dark. Room is dusty, the mouldy smell will welcome you upon entering the room. There is water leak in the cr the time we check in the room, although the staff address it quickly, still uncomfortable for us, coming from the long trip and expecting to have a relaxing room upon arrival, instead it give us more stress. Also no available food to order in the hotel or in the nearby areas in late night time, since we arrive like 8pm from airport, waiting hours for the leak cr to be fix, and sleep hungry because no food to order. But all the staff are commendable, they are helpful and quick in action.

It was really clean, very well designed in my opinion and the staff was extremely polite and caring. Even held my luggage after checkout when my flight back was at night . I will definitely recommend to stay here if you want to stay in Itaewon. Very close to a lot of foods, clubs and bus stops/ Subway stations are also walking distance.

Imperial palace was our home for 2 weeks while we stayed in Seoul and I’m beyond happy with this choice. It was near the subway (Itaewon station) and was easy to get anywhere in the city from there. The nightlife on the weekends were lively but the party areas were far enough from the hotel that it didn’t disturb us. Very clean part of town and safe. Lots of shopping nearby with lots of restaurants at a walkable distance. The trail to hike up to the Namsan tower is close, as well. The hotel itself was very clean and well kept with swanky vibes and moody lighting. The staff was super accommodating and friendly! Would definitely stay here again! By mid trip, we started referring to it as “home”.

Very easy to find, short walk from subway. Modern, stylish, clean and quiet. The neighborhood has many cute cafes, restaurants and shops. I’d stay there again. They also allowed you to leave your luggage for free later pickup on the day you check out so you could enjoy your last day in Seoul if your flight was later in the day. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Beautiful hotel! Staff were very friendly and helpful. However the room we had were not entirely cleaned. For those who have severe dust/feather allergies, please do let the desk know before you arrive, they do use top on the line feather bedding as priority. We did have card issues several times but other than that, the location is great!!

It was near the mosque and many halal food restaurants. We used the local bus and trains to get to many places from the hotel. The staff was always prompt and organized and often cleaned up the room while we were out for breakfast. There were a couple of structural issues with the room: the sink always had some water because of issue with drain. One of the screws came off the hanging TV, making it less stable. We had the gold room. Staff at the front desk and the restaurant were very nice and helpful.
