Hotels in Gangseo

awesome hotel with nice staff. just take note that this is far from seoul (city), will took you 1-2hrs travel time if you are going to tourist spots/seoul.

the room is clean & comfy. surely will stay again

Pros: Great location because it is safe/secure, and adjacent to Lotte City Mall where you can dine and shop. Subway station is also a great plus! Sky Park next door is also a nice place for a morning or evening stroll. The hotel is eco-friendly, clean, and in good condition. They took note of our request for late check in which was good. Cons: Unfortunately, staying here didn't give us much bang for our buck. TV channels are 80% local with no English subtitles. Iron and ironing board are not in the room; one would have to go to the 2nd floor and queue up. Coffee and toiletries are not replenished daily. Our stay is for 11 nights, but coffee was only replenished 3x. Room attendants just give 2-3 sachets of coffee and green tea. No chopsticks, stirrer, and sugar are provided. Shampoo, conditioner and shower gel were replenished 4x; Lotion, not ever! Breakfast spread is very, very limited. F&B attendants clear the table even when you're not yet done with your food. Staff are kind but speak little English. When we arrived, I asked for a room with a view but I was told that I had to pay 263USD extra per night. I discussed this with the front desk, then she called me at the room twice to confirm that I just had to pay the additional fee per night so they could have me transferred to a room with a better view. I just forgot about it as it was too much of a hassle to transfer rooms with all our luggage in tow; no bellhop in this hotel. For what it's worth, I've had better hotel experiences.

The hotel is far from Seoul city centre, but close to Balsan station. The train ride to city centre takes almost an hour, with a few line transfers. If you are coming with big luggage, there is an elevator at one of the exit (not the one close to the hotel) but you will need to cross the main road to get to the hotel. There is a GS25 convenient store in front of the hotel. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants so that can be a huge plus point to many.
