Positive: Luxury hotel with great choice of restaurants , good location, good breakfast, confortable rooms. A pleasant rooftop terrace accessible from the execitive lounge.
Negative: I think it should be more clean in the toilet. Furthermore, it was included an access to the executive loungue which supposedly should be open until 9 pm ( based on their website) but when we arrived after 7 pm there was no snacks, only drinks and some biscuits. The information should be more accurate.
Summary: Luxurious facilities in a hotel that is well located

Positive: The convenience to doota mall/DDP and dongdaemun station. The staff were superb, extremely friendly. Shoutout to the doormen, they would ask for your cab number (if you’re waiting for one) and actually go out of the hotel premises to wait and lookout for your taxi and guide them into the hotel for you. Impeccable service.
Negative: 4 things, 1. The biggest issue which would concern a lot of people, NO CONVENIENCE STORE FOOD ALLOWED BACK IN THE HOTEL. Meaning, NO microwaveable food, NO kimbap, NO triangle onigiri, nothing that is considered a meal to the hotel staff is allowed. They told me only “small food” allowed, where the reception explained only packet potato chips etc were allowed. This seriously pissed me off because firstly, it didn’t say ANYWHERE in the hotel website or booking.com that no outside food were allowed. Only upon check in did they tell us this ridiculous rule. I asked why such a rule even existed, they told me that it’s to avoid cases of food poisoning but kept insisting that they have a “24 hours in room dining”. No offence, but who’s to say, one wouldn’t get food poisoning from their in room dining too. It’s definitely a possibility. There was a night where I asked them if there was a microwave available in the hotel, they kept reiterating before I could even mention why I needed the microwave (I have a 5 month old baby by the way), that no outside food is allowed. I found that very ridiculous and decided not to carry on with the conversation. 2. Now this was the main issue I had with the hotel, no food deliveries allowed (now I know not everybody would be bothered by this as some people don’t know how to use the delivery app or care to have supper) but it’s all about the Korean experience. We enjoyed going back to the hotel rooms on our previous trips and ordering food we couldn’t stomach after dinner or simply too tired to travel to another place to eat. Watching shows and eating in the comfort of our room. 3. The pillows were ridiculously soft for a pretty hard bed. It’s to the point where stacking 2 pillows on top of the other didn’t work as well. My head still sunk all the way to the bed. 4. Honestly, 5 stars hotel but the toilet was O L D. You can see that they did nothing to refurbish the bathroom.
Summary: 10/10 would not stay again
