RE: GOOD VALUE BUT NEED SOME IMPROVEMENT

Review of Valentine Hotel
3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 16 May 2012
You can take bus 700 from the ktx station to Bomun lake and the hotel located near to the Bomun Lake or on a secondary street off on the Bomun Lake main road. 5-8min walking distance from Hilton Hotel (which the same main road with Bomun Lake).Hard to get food around. You have to take short trip taxi to restaurant or bus stop.

Room clean and comfortable. The receptionist staff or i shall said is the hotel owner is very helpful and friendly. They offer free laundry services but they don't have machines to dry up your cloths. All by natural ways or hang until dry at your room.

Near to some tourist attraction like Bomun Lake, Teddy Bear Museum, Shilla Museum and etc. You may easily take the public bus from the main road which 10 min walked from the hotel to downtown place of interest like Tumuli Park, Analpji and etc. You may ask the receptionist about the bus number. If you plan to visit the downtown at night. You have to back to hotel before 9pm as no bus available to the hotel area anymore. You have to paid around KRW150,000 for the taxi fare.

One best thing is, most of the public bus to Bulguksa Temple & Seokguram Grotto will pass by the hotel main road (Bomun Lake and Hiltion). Just take Bus no 10 or bus no 11.

Reviewed 22 April 2012

The hotel is located on a secondary street off of a main thoroughfare. It is in a resort area where there are lots of hotels and restaurants/attractions, but they are not convenient by foot. This is probably a hotel best suited for travelers w/ a car. It is not convenient to historical sites, but the lake area nearby is popular w/ Korean tourists. The nearest restaurant is a nice, large Korean grill. The room was clean and bright and had a refrigerator. It is a nice hotel, but again would be a bit of an inconvenience for those w/out their own transport.
