The breakfast buffet had a nice assortment of foods. Some of the dishes changed each day, which was a nice change. The hotel is very clean and the staff very kind. Location is great.
Hotel location is superb, especially if you are in Seoul for a short stay!!! Shopping mall, street food market, subway station, all within 5-10 minute walking distance at most! Hotel staff was very friendly and they managed to check us in early, since we took the first flight out of Osaka!
Good location for visiting the city. Plenty of Local shops & restaurants nearby. Hotel rooms are good, modern & clean. Hotel food & drink very limited. Buffet breakfast is OK but then no food available for the rest of the day apart from fast food at bar that only opens from 5-10pm.
We loved our corner room on the 18th floor a lot. The views were amazing day and night. Close to everything. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Having lockers available for the luggage helped a lot, as we arrived 5 hours before check-in (which I found inconvenient being at 3;00pm).
Highly recommended!!!
Great location, staff was helpful and especially the room service lady who makes the beds and cleans the room, she was extremely friendly. We had great experience with Stanford Hotel.
Room was small but is good for solo travel. Had to call staff for room cleanup once during the stay as it seem to have been missed. In a busy area with lots of shops and restaurants.
I spent a week at the Stanford in Myeongdong, in a superior double room, which was quiet, spacious and well-maintained. It even had a nice view of Namsan Park and tower. Aside from the wifi signal being a little weak at one end of the room, I have no complaints at all and would happily stay again. As many guests note, the hotelās location is excellent, and its staff are friendly and helpful. Breakfast is fine, but there isnāt much in it for those who, like me, are lactose intolerant and prefer to eat Western food.
Liked the location and Hotel itself. Staff were delightful, helpful and lovely.
Breakfast ok. Needs to be hotter in temperature.
Daily room service (house keeping) we found to arrive too late in the day. We had been out for a long day sight seeing and arrived back 4 pm and room not attended to on each day of our stay.
The hotel is in a good location. The hotel itself is clean and good condition. The staff are not really friendly, I never see anyone of them ever smile at a guest which is so sad since they are working in a hospitality industry.
