HotelArrive Seoulful

This boutique hotel was so cute, with a very young vibe (we are late 50s traveling with a 19 and 21 year old) The reviews said there was no elevator, but there was indeed an elevator! The desk staff was super friendly and helpful always. You have to ask to have the room cleaned or if you need towels, more toilet paper etc. but that was easy enough to do. Our room was spacious and very comfortable. AC was heavenly. Super great feature: free ramen bar in the basement! Also a little karaoke booth where our girls paid 1000 won (67 cents) per song and had a blast singing to their favorite K-pop songs. Our favorite front desk staff guy actually treated them to two free songs to get them started. He was amazing-I wish we had gotten his name. So kind and friendly and helpful. A note about the surrounding area-it looked a little “gritty” when we arrived; it’s in a warren of back alleyways and there was trash piled up and honestly we were a little concerned at first. HOWEVER… it turned out to be a great little neighborhood with tons of restaurants and coffee shops and a 7-11 very close (you must have a 7-11 near your hotel trust me). Also very close to the Gwangjang Market. Very safe super authentic area. We loved everything about this hotel and would definitely stay here again!

Very cute, well located place. The staff was very useful with the gentleman at the front being very accommodating and kind! He went above and beyond to help us get a taxi and helped with even putting the luggage in the car. All in all we had a pleasant one night stay. It was just very pricey for what you got but a lot of Seoul was booked up because of children’s day.

Location is new, and everything is super clean and freshly renovated. I stayed a week here and no complaints; the rooms are very comfortable from beds to sheets to maid service. The staff is wonderful, and can commicate easily across different languages. 5 minute walk to Jungro 5 station which can get you all over Seoul easily. Hotel is tucked down a sidestreet, so it's peaceful at night and there are plenty of food options right there. Highly reccomend this hotel and wish them all the success.

Good
