GLOUCESTER HOTEL INCHEON

The room was quite spacious. There's a CU convenience store right downstairs, which was super convenient for grabbing snacks and drinks. The staff at the front desk, both the guys and girls, were really friendly too.

The location is really convenient. It's right next to a seafood market, and there are tons of restaurants nearby. Plus, the subway entrance is only a 3-minute walk away.

I've been to Korea countless times, but this is the first time I've ever felt it was so big! I just booked this hotel randomly based on its high rating, and it took me over two hours by subway from the city center. I was genuinely shocked – I didn't think there was anywhere in Korea that far by subway! It's also two hours from the airport. I have no idea where this place is located. Every other time I've booked spontaneously, I've ended up in the city center, but this time I picked somewhere so far out. Putting the location aside, the hotel's service and environment are really good. The subway station is right across from the hotel, and there's a 24-hour 7-Eleven right outside the entrance. There are also tons of food options nearby, all frequented by young people and open late into the night! I suspect this is a university town (I feel like I got scammed with the location, but hey). The room is huge with two beds – it's strange in Korea, one bed is massive, and the other is a standard twin. You could easily sleep three people. Besides being far, there's nothing wrong with it!

This hotel is great for a Seoul layover and offers excellent value for money. It's about 25km from Incheon International Airport, with a taxi costing around 35,000 KRW. I recommend checking out the Soraepogu Fish Market nearby to try some local seafood.

This five-star hotel is truly fantastic! The only minor drawback is its distance from the city center, but everything else was excellent. The room was comfortable and clean, fully equipped with amenities like a heated, automatic toilet and an enclosed bathtub, providing great insulation. The bed was also incredibly comfortable. The TV offered a good selection of channels. Breakfast was quite good; although the variety wasn't extensive, you could still enjoy some authentic Korean specialties. The hotel is surrounded by a vibrant area with plenty of restaurants, bars, and a lively nightlife. Getting around is very convenient; you can take bus 303-1 directly from Incheon Airport to the hotel. The streets adorned with cherry blossoms were beautiful. The subway station is right across from the hotel, which is super convenient, though the travel time to and from the city can be long. Plus, there's a riverfront plaza not far from the hotel where you can feed seagulls and pigeons, which was a lot of fun.

The room was very dirty, the carpet was filthy, the chair was broken, and the subway was a bit noisy. The service was okay though.

The conditions are pretty good. It's about a 30-minute taxi ride from the airport, costing around 60,000-70,000 KRW.
