I have no second thoughts about booking this hotel again on my next trip to Seoul - 1) the airport shuttle service (10000 Kwon) stops at its doorstep 2) there is a good kalbi restaurant next door 3) it is right in the Myeongdong shopping district 4) it has a quaint pocket garden in each room - nice touch More

Location was good, with airport bus stopping at front door and short walking distance to subway and Myeongdong, making shopping super convenient ! Didn't mind the rooms too much, as I was there for one night only, though for that price the rooms should have been better. More

Everyone should know that the union is on strike at this downtown hotel. They are protesting against the management on one large side of the lobby and it is extremely disruptive for guests. I did not stay here but I went to my friend's wedding on the 3rd floor. The labor union must have their reasons for using such heavy... More

The entrance of the hotel is very fancy and makes you think this is a luxury place. But this is another story with the rooms: they are old fashioned, quite small and internet access is expensive (as are the prices of the rooms) . Also, don't look under the bed or you may have an unpleasant surprise: they seem to... More

Sejong has a great location if you want to be in downtown Seoul. Its near the Myeongdong district - on of Seoul's liveliest shopping, dining and entertainment districts, especially at night. It is also near Namsan Park - a nice greenlung, uphill runs up to Seoul Tower. Sejong is also conveniently one of the stops for the Airport Limo bus... More

My hotel room was old and with a very small and smelly bathroom. Breakfast prices were also quite expensive. I think the hotel needs some upgrades on some rooms in order to achieve my recommendation More

I am a Korean-American so my first language is English. The workers here would keep speaking Japanese to my family, and we had to tell them at least 50 times that we were Korean Americans. This place is only great for Japanese guests since most of the workers here are fluent in Japanese. It is not a good place for... More

Good quality hotel in Central Seoul. It is a very short walk to shopping streets, restaurants and banks. Good sized rooms, well equipped and very clean. Restaurant large serving good food. Had a happy hour in the early evening when items from the menu and certain drinks were cheaper. Buffet breakfast was excellent with a very range of food available... More
