The hotel has a fantastic location, very close to Euljiro 1-ga station and Myeongdong station, and the Myeongdong shopping district is right downstairs. The lobby is on the 19th floor with huge floor-to-ceiling windows offering excellent views. The staff are polite, and the room is very clean. I would definitely stay here again next time.
