Taereung and Gangreung Royal Tombs Tours and Activities

Room is cleaned, they address any issues or concerns right away. Staff is courtesy, respectful and very helpful. Hotel is in the middle of shopping and night market activities.

This hotel was adequate, but it has so much potential to be excellent if the rooms could be updated! The location is great - really close to train stations as well as the oldest street market in Seoul. Staff was very good; they helped us get taxis a few times within minutes (taxis are very cheap in Seoul). And they clean the room and provide water bottles daily. The wifi worked well, the AC was cold, and there were USB and two-pronged outlets compatible with US devices. There's a big old converter in the closet if you need to plug in a grounded three-pronged device. However, the rooms are older. Upon getting off the elevator on our 6th floor, you are greeted with a door to a storage room with peeling paint. The carpet is old. It seemed clean, just clearly old and worn. They attempted a few low-budget updates to the bathroom like newer wall tiles, but a few tiles were loose and needed grout or caulk. The sink was the lowest sink I've seen anywhere. Maybe we got a handicap-accessible room (I don't think it was), but I placed and sat down on a chair in front of the sink which made it about the right height for me ;-). All of this was fine and acceptable, but the biggest challenge was the old beds that were not comfortable. You can clearly see that the beds slope to the middle and it feels like it. Overall, it was a great location and clean room, but really just ok because of the age of the property and lack of updates, especially the beds.

We stayed in a room with 4 beds which was great for a family with teenagers. It had 2 bathrooms —one full and another that was just a shower . So that was also great for a family of 4 . We loved that they had a complimentary stocked minibar. The breakfast buffet is excellent and a great deal so sign up for that. If you pay the night prior for the breakfast buffet you get it cheaper than paying the day of for breakfast . They help you get taxis but uber is also convenient . Very conveniently placed location . Close to subway and myeongdong shopping area . And also close to the tourist places ( palace and Korean village —though still a taxi ride ) . 711 close by and also a pharmacy . Rooms were clean but you could tell the bathroom beginning to look dated. Staff very helpful. Would stay there again in a heartbeat if I visit Seoul.
