Scenic Hotels in Seoul

"Traveling solo, my stay at this hotel far exceeded my expectations. The room was meticulously clean, and the hotel's location was excellent, making getting around very convenient. The front desk staff were incredibly thoughtful and friendly, making communication a breeze. The room amenities were new and complete, and the twin room was spacious, providing a comfortable and secure stay. Overall, my experience was fantastic, and I'll definitely choose this place again on my next visit."

"The hotel is about 500-600 meters from Exit 2 of Subway Line 9. There are many convenience stores, an Olive Young, Paris Baguette, and local eateries nearby, which is very convenient. Public transportation is excellent, with buses running until 11 PM. Within a 2-kilometer radius, you'll also find a variety of dessert shops, bubble tea places, cafes, and fast-food restaurants. If you're looking to shop, Line 9 goes directly to the Gangnam Shopping Center area. Moreover, the hotel is tucked away in a quiet spot but still close to everything, right next to Mount Jeungmi. It's a great option for friends who enjoy morning runs or hiking. Just a small heads-up: the hotel doesn't provide toothbrushes or toothpaste, but you can easily buy them at the convenience store downstairs."

"The hotel is located in Gangnam-gu, which is convenient for medical aesthetics and shopping in the area. The room facilities are generally good, and the service is decent. They provide two bottles of mineral water daily, and refills cost extra, but it's not expensive. There's an afternoon tea area in the hotel lobby. The staff at check-in spoke limited Mandarin, but we managed to communicate."

"This is a auto check in, is doesn’t like traditional check in. Make sure you need to key in your details and booking number at the machine. Overall 4/5"

"This was my second stay at Mercure, and it was just as fantastic as the first. Since the hotel opened in 2024, the amenities are incredibly user-friendly; you don't even need to bring a plug adapter because all the sockets in the rooms are Asian-style. The facilities are also excellent, with a gym, swimming pool, and restaurant. The front desk staff's English communication was flawless and very welcoming – it seems many young Koreans speak English well now. The room itself was very clean, fresh, quiet, and comfortable. I've previously commented on the excellent location, which is super convenient: it's accessible via Subway Lines 9 and 5, and the Airport Railroad, with a stop at Mapo-dong. Mercure's layout is very well-planned. If you're coming from the Airport Railroad, take exit 6 and on B2, head towards the 'Square' (there are hotel signs). You don't even need to go outside; you'll find the hotel elevator right next to the 7-Eleven. Take that directly up to the 6th floor for the front desk. This is a huge time-saver if it's raining or cold outside. The Airport Railroad is also great for getting to the airport and the city center. The Mapo-dong area itself is primarily an office district, so it's quiet and less crowded. There are plenty of restaurants and cafes downstairs. If you want to go to Lotte Market to buy food and clothes, it's just one subway stop away at Gimpo Airport, where there's a big Lotte! I even managed to capture the sunrise with amazing fiery clouds from my window at 6 AM – what a spectacular view! I'll definitely be staying here again. Super highly recommended!"

"Excellent value for money! The breakfast was plentiful, and the hotel was very clean. There's a convenient store right downstairs, and a direct bus to Myeongdong stops right outside, getting you there in just 45 minutes. Super convenient!"

"This is an older hotel, but its location is quite good. My room didn't have a universal adapter, but thankfully I was able to borrow one from the front desk. The disposable toiletries were all well-stocked, and the cleanliness was decent. However, I couldn't sleep well at night because of a noise, I'm not sure if it was the air conditioner's motor or something else, but it was very loud."
