"This is a nice, affordable hotel with awesome staff. Rooms are basic as are many hotels in Korea, and are clean and comfortable (one double bed and one single bed in most rooms). The staff is excellent. We stayed here because a family member works close by. Some neighborhood restaurants are within walking distance as well as a few “quick marts”. Unification park with some hiking trails and a rebuilt 1.000 year old palace is nearby."

Mercure Ambassador Seoul Magok

8/10 Good

"Clean room and convenient for our purposes, but the room was cozy than I expected."

Mayfield Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best hotels I’ve been in Korea so far. Extremely well designed and constructed sites and completed with neat modern and luxurious touch. It was clean and very stylish hotel and all the staffs were so friendly and accommodating. It’s a resort like hotel just about 5-7 min drive from Gimpo airport. They also run shuttle to the airport as well as nearby shopping malls and cute city called Magok. Also a great outing you can plan from the hotel. I didn’t expect this resort type hotel in Seoul at all to be honest. One downside is that their onsite drinks, food and snacks were quite high prices but besides that everything was perfect with comfort, great design amenities and hospitality. I’d definitely visit again in the future."
