"First off, good luck getting a taxi that can actually find this place. The taxi dropped me off and then I spent an hour trying to locate the place on foot. It ended up being a 25 minute walk to the other side of town with all my luggage in tow on a hot and sunny day which was very unpleasant. Once I arrived, check in was easy. The accommodation was very basic which I didn’t mind because I only needed a place to sleep for one night. The shower leaked water all over the sleeping area even though...

"I visited this hotel two months ago, but I came back. Last time, it was a bit chaotic because it was newly opened, but now it's a stable atmosphere? A staff member who was still friendly welcomed me. Having a staff member who can speak Japanese is a great advantage. They also ran a free breakfast. I didn't eat and just looked around, but it looked delicious. Coffee is free, too. Washing machines and dryers are also free if you just buy detergent. I feel this every time, but Dongdaemun at night...

The Westin Josun Seoul

The Westin Josun Seoul

10/10 Excellent
"True luxury and premium hotel. Location is in central Seoul, right by City Hall and City Hall Station. Property is stylish, with a large entrance and lobby area, and the Bar and Lounge. Staff are, to a person, excellent; friendly, helpful and welcoming. The room I booked, on the 19th floor was an executive king, came with Westin Club lounge access. Room is very well designed, a comfortable size with all the modern amenities, including super fast internet access and a 65” TV. The bed is very comfortable, as expected from Westin. I ate in the club lounge, which offers daily Western and Asian options for breakfast and light dinner. I also ate at the Bar and Lounge and their Italian restaurant Rubrica, which was excellent both in food and service. Highly recommended hotel."
