Great stay

We stayed in the apartments. The bathroom was absolutely gorgeous and lovely. Overall, it was a great stay. Sofa could be softer. Had washer dryer and an LG styler. Not much walking around but bus stops nearby. We stayed in the apartments, which had an absolutely gorgeous and lovely bathroom. Overall, it was a great stay.

I booked the Suite at Grand Mercure Imperial Palace during my stay in Gangnam, and it was amazing. From the interior decoration to the our hotel room, everything was immaculate. All the staff were very friendly and professional, offering help whenever they can. I would recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Gangnam, as the location was perfect. It was minutes way from subways and bus stops, which made it incredibly easy to travel around. If I'm ever back in Korea in Gangnam, I plan to stay at this place again!

Beautiful palace but a little far from attractions

The property is very beautiful - it‘s a real palace. However it‘s pretty far from most of the attractions and the closest subway Station is about 10 minutes walk. In the room there is an air conditioner but you can not control the temperature - as I was told by the receptionist it‘s central air conditioner for the whole wing and they can’t change temperature - so couple of evenings I found myself getting really cold with about 20 degrees in the room and tons of clothes to keep myself warm after shower

I will probably never book this hotel again.

The lobby looks nice. The check-in counter staff were also friendly. However, one major disappointment was that as soon as I entered the room, there was a strange smell. The odor was unpleasant to the point of discomfort. Later at night, when I returned, unpacked, and tried to take a shower, I found that no water was coming out of the shower booth. I had to wait for almost an hour. Eventually, I requested a room change. I hope such issues do not happen again in the future, and it would be great if the rooms had a cleaner, fresher scent.

Pretty underwhelmed

This was an overnight in Seoul on our way back to the states. It was Christmas time so the lobby was super decked out! Unfortunately the Suite we reserved was anything but. It did have 2 rooms but minimal furniture and decorations. The bed was a Queen (not King) and furnishings looked about 30 or 40 years old. I think there is a newer wing that might be nicer.
