    excellent location
    friendly staff
    protruding nails
    painful incident
    inadequate response

    The location is excellent for exploring various attractions, with Insadong just a short walk away and airport transport conveniently nearby. Room conditions were decent with comfortable bedding, but stepping on protruding carpet nails was painful and poorly handled. Despite this, staff were friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall experience. Breakfast and other dining options were satisfactory with freshly squeezed juices available nearby.

    convenient location
    inefficient air conditioning
    cramped bathroom

    Convenient location for exploring attractions.

    The air conditioning was incredibly inefficient, leaving the room uncomfortably warm at 25 degrees for the entire stay. I had to open the window for some airflow, but there were no safety locks, which worried me with young children. The overall room quality was disappointing. it felt dark and cramped, and the bathroom was extremely small, making showering uncomfortable, especially for bigger individuals.

    ideal base for exploring palaces and city parks

    Our stay was fantastic, especially with easy access to Changdeokgung just a 10-minute stroll away for beautiful sights and Jogyesa Temple only 15 minutes away for peaceful walks, making it perfect for my weekend city explorations. the staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist, and the rooms were kept clean daily.

    The rooftop terrace offered great views, and I enjoyed the cozy communal hot tub. Coin laundry was super convenient, and the free microwave was a nice touch. The location is perfect for exploring nearby attractions.

    helpful staff

    This place suits me perfectly! With great wi-fi, 24-hour reception, and a cozy bar area, it has everything I need. I remember the staff kindly helping me with directions during my first stay. A good tip is to ask for room options with windows that open. I'm definitely coming back for a romantic escape.

    small family room

    Had an awesome time exploring the nearby Hanok Village with all the teenagers. The staff was super friendly and helped us plan our itinerary. Breakfast was beyond our expectations – a feast every morning with a ton of options, perfect for our hungry crew!

    In my wife’s opinion, a bigger room would be great for our family.

    Cozy stay in Insadong!

    Loved how close we were to Ikseondong Hanok Village! So many cute cafes nearby. The rooftop area was a nice touch with stunning views of N Tower. Rooms were clean, but the decor felt a bit dated. The breakfast was decent too. Perfect for a family of three, just a short walk to the metro.

    our stay at ibis was lovely. the location was spot on, just 5 minutes from cafes, shops, and currency exchange. the rooftop was breathtaking at night! plus, the fitness center and sauna made for a relaxing escape after exploring. we enjoyed the clean standard double room with comfy beds. it's also near convenience stores and the train station.

    the breakfast could be better.
