Sofitel Ambassador Seoul Hotel & Serviced Residences

The bar on the 32nd floor was way too loud, so we ended up leaving early. But the room service food? Absolutely incredible—every bite was delicious and worth every penny.

Best Western Premier Gangnam Hotel

Staying at this hotel in Gangnam, Seoul was an absolute highlight of my trip. From the moment I arrived, everything about the experience felt seamless and well thought out—perfectly blending convenience, comfort, and thoughtful touches. The location is truly unbeatable: just a 5-minute walk to Sinmunam Station on Line 9, with easy access to major hubs like Gangnam and Yongsan stations—all within a 10-minute commute. Even better, the luxury airport shuttle from Incheon Airport stops right outside the hotel, so after a long flight, I could check in without any hassle or extra transfers. That alone made my arrival stress-free and welcoming. Around the hotel, everything you need is within walking distance—convenience stores, cozy local cafes, authentic Korean eateries, and trendy beauty shops are all just steps away. No need to venture far for food, shopping, or a quick coffee break. The room exceeded my expectations—spacious enough despite not being huge, impeccably clean, and beautifully laid out. The bedding was incredibly soft, making it impossible to get out of bed, and the quiet environment ensured a restful night’s sleep. Amenities were spot-on: a 42-inch flat-screen TV, mini-fridge, safe, and a spacious bathroom with a relaxing bathtub. Some rooms even offer views of Namsan Tower—especially magical when the city lights come on at night. Service throughout was warm and attentive; the front desk staff were friendly and available 24/7, always ready to help with anything. On-site dining includes both local and Western options, and the breakfast buffet was generous and diverse—perfect for fueling up a busy day. Additional perks like the fitness center, business lounge, laundry service, and free parking added real value.

Stay Hotel Gangnam

The room is small but perfectly adequate for a quick overnight stay. It's just a 2-minute walk from the subway, making commuting super convenient. The hotel is spotlessly clean, and towels and amenities are refreshed daily—great attention to detail. There’s also a hairdryer available, which is a nice touch. The view from the window isn’t much to write home about—it’s just a wall of the neighboring hotel—but honestly, that didn’t bother me at all since I was mainly using it as a base for exploring Seoul. Overall, it’s a solid choice if you’re looking for comfort, cleanliness, and value in a central location.

Lex Tourist Hotel

This hotel is incredibly convenient, especially for travelers flying out of Seoul. The 6009 airport bus stops right across the street—no need to cross traffic when heading to the airport. Just walk left from the hotel entrance for about 100 meters to reach the stop. A 24-hour bone broth restaurant is just a 10-minute walk away, and it’s popular with locals—great spot for a late-night bite. It’s less than 20 minutes by bus to Gangnam, where you’ll find major shopping spots like Hyundai Department Store, London Bagel, and Tour a Tour. The hotel itself is clean and well-maintained, with friendly staff. One minor note: occasionally, singing can be heard from neighboring rooms until around 11 PM, so if you’re sensitive to noise, consider requesting a quieter room or bring earplugs. Overall, the location, cleanliness, and value make this a top pick for a comfortable stay in Seoul.
