Seoul Hotels with Bars

The bigger the hope, the greater the disappointment. By domestic hotel standards, this place is essentially an upgraded budget hotel in terms of hardware. Regarding the service, every staff member I encountered greeted me warmly and proactively. When my ride-share dropped me off at ground level, two attendants helped me carry my luggage upstairs. Its location is absolutely unbeatable, right in Myeongdong. It's very close to Lotte Duty-Free, Shinsegae Duty-Free, and the Nanta show. My final conclusion is: Is it worth over 5,000 won for two nights? I can only say that the Wyndham I stayed at in Busan for just over 700 won felt more like a five-star hotel in terms of amenities, and it only cost a third of what I paid here.

Great location there is an airport bus stop right in front of the hotel that makes arriving and departing seemless. Connected to one of the top malls in Seoul, gym is fully equipped but the swimming pool cannot just drop in need to book in advance to use. Overall good hotel, but the walls are thin, easy to hear the sounds of the hallway and upstairs, rather off for a 5 star hotel.

The room is clean and they provide you a PJ which is very cute. The location is such a great neighborhood and very convenient for good food, good cafes, and shopping. Also don't forget to check out the roof top bar/cafe. The view is stunning in the night.

The location is very convenient, and the room environment is also good. It has all the standard amenities you'd expect from a chain hotel. The front desk service was friendly as well. Overall, it's a star-rated hotel with great value for money in the Jiangnan area.

Overall, my stay was great! The room was a bit small, but it was spotless. For two people, there wasn't much space to lay out luggage, but we managed to pack and unpack. The room amenities were a pleasant surprise: a large fridge and two washing machines. We didn't use them during our short trip, but they would be incredibly useful for long-term travelers. The hotel also provides two complimentary bottles of water daily, and the shower pressure was excellent and very comfortable. The front desk service was a big plus; the staff spoke Chinese, making the check-in process seamless. The location is superb, with a convenience store right downstairs – perfect for buying water, snacks, and daily necessities. Myeongdong shopping area is also within walking distance, making shopping and errands incredibly easy. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Seoul!

Basically, there's nothing special about this place. The bathroom is tiny and seems to be an add-on. When I checked out, the front desk didn't refund my cash deposit. I only realized two days later that I hadn't gotten it back. After I called to confirm, they told me to come pick it up, so I had to take a taxi back. There were three staff members, and not one of them even apologized. It felt like if I hadn't brought it up, they wouldn't have refunded it. It should show up in their computer system, yet they didn't proactively contact me to return it. Their service training clearly isn't up to par.

The room size is quite decent for one or two people. It is fully equipped and feels just like home—while you can't do heavy cooking, there is a microwave for preparing simple meals. There's also a washing machine. Since the weather was a bit dry in September and October, clothes washed one day were completely dry by the next. Other amenities include a TV, a small fridge, a bed, a clothes drying rack (with a bit of ingenuity, you can find plenty of spots to hang your laundry), a small dining table with two chairs, a vanity stool, and even a tripod clothes rack, making it very convenient to use. Housekeeping cleans your room every day, which is wonderful, though there are many different staff members, so the cleaning thoroughness varies slightly. Two bottles of drinking water are provided daily. Transportation is very convenient, just three subway stops away from Gimpo Airport. The surrounding area has complete facilities and offers great value for money. The only minor drawback is that being close to a bustling street full of restaurants and entertainment spots means it can get a little noisy at night.

The room size at this hotel was decent, and the decor was simple and clean. The bedding was also very comfortable. We booked a room with a large bathtub, but it took quite a while to fill it up. The only downside was the noise from outside the hotel. There seemed to be some nightlife activities going on upstairs, facing the street, with many people hailing taxis and talking loudly. Also, we asked the hotel to book a taxi for us for 4 AM the next day, and they agreed, but then failed to do so. This was quite surprising to me, as when we walked out at 4 AM, there were plenty of empty taxis and even buses already running. Luckily, we had a backup plan and didn't miss our high-speed train.

Right in front of Seoul KTX station 2nd floor was connected to Seoul station with sky bridge Super convenient with huge suitcase Room has a unique windows 1 on the top 1 on the bottom as we still can open the curtain and enjoy the night view Breakfast was so yummy with drinks 1st floor has a huge restaurant for pizza and beer Lovely! Super recommend especially if you have an early train Be careful! it still need 20min walk to the KTX platform as Seoul station is huge

We had a wonderful stay at Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. The hotel was clean, modern, comfortable, and very well maintained. The location was especially convenient, with Yongsan Station nearby, making it easy to get around Seoul by train and subway. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the hotel had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The staff were friendly, professional, and helpful whenever we had questions. We also really enjoyed the overall atmosphere of the hotel—it felt upscale without being overly formal. Another big plus was having shopping, restaurants, and transportation so close by. It made exploring Seoul much easier, especially after a long day of sightseeing. Overall, we had a great experience and would definitely stay at Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan again. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, convenient, and high-quality hotel in Seoul.
