had the most pleasant stay at Mangrove Sinseol in my recent trip to Seoul! The room was spacious, and the staff was easily contactable through an online chat (very responsive too). Mangrove Sinseol is conveniently located near Sinseol-dong station, with a direct bus (6002) from Incheon Airport. It also has many bus services nearby that directly connects the place to other tourist places in Seoul. Would definitely stay here again the next time I visit Seoul.

Love the concept of this hotel. The staff are all well versed with English. Easy to communicate. There’s a bus stop just right infront of this hotel makes travelling so easy ! There’s not tv in the room and they only do room cleaning every 6 days. Do take note if you’re expecting daily cleaning hotel concept. Overall is a nice and pleasant stay while in Seoul. The room is compact, small but have everything you need.

シングルで泊まった。広さは十分。 キッチンが偶数階にあり、たいていの物が揃っていて便利。部屋にポットは無かったが各フロアに給水・給湯があるので困らなかった。最上階のラウンジスペース・バルコニーは眺めが最高で、コーヒー/氷サーバー、簡易キッチンがあるので居心地が良い。 1Fのロッカーは1000W(キャッシュレス)で荷物預け可。チェックイン前に利用した。 スタッフは限られた時間しかいない。 館内の移動は部屋に割り当てられたQRコードやカードを照会しないと出来ない。セキュリティ上は安心だが、エレベーターではキッチンのある階のボタンが押せない時があり、不便だった。また非常階段も施錠してあって、本当の非常時に使えるのか不安だった。
