Top Kukkiwon Hotel Reviews

Shilla Stay Seocho Gangnam Station

10/10 Excellent

"The location was great with subway and bus stops in a few minutes walking distance and with great restaurants and cafes with some of them open for 24 hours. The room was very small which I expected but the facility was pretty new and well maintained. Will definitely go back if I decide to stay in Gangnam area again."

Shilla Stay Gangnam Yeoksam

10/10 Excellent

"Great area and a really wonderful place to stay in Seoul - I’d definitely stay there again"

Grand Mercure Imperial Palace Seoul Gangnam

10/10 Excellent

"Nothing I don't like. Staffs! staffs ! They make this place the true five stat experience. 다음에 또 올겁니다. 고맙습니다"

L7 GANGNAM by LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were helpful! Make sure you take time to walk around the hotel as there are many things of use, like a money exchange machine on the 9th floor — l realized this a bit too late. Room was clean enough!"

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Gangnam

10/10 Excellent

"great choice for my stay in Seoul."

UH FLAT SIGNATURE GANGNAM

10/10 Excellent

"For the North American or European Travelers the 2nd floor is not for standing height. Otherwise I loved the firm bed. Everything you need is there. If they provided a cutting board and a garbage can it would’ve been perfect. The washer and dryer and sanitizer was just a bonus ! The Apple cafe was just plain addictive. And I recommend returning to the airport by taxi if there are two of you. It’s only $35 plus usd .."

Dormy Inn SEOUL Gangnam

10/10 Excellent

"I really loved it! The breakfast buffet was amazing! The free ramen was nice as well but it was after 9-10:30pm. Filters Water station was available all day, there was free washer (not the dryer) was I was able to hang it and dried quickly in the room. I traveled solo, so my room was a bit small, reminded me of a cruise cabin, but it had everything I needed. I brought a swimsuit for the spa, but no clothes were allowed. That was nice after a long 14 hour flight. The airport limousine bus stops right neck door. Staff was great too and spoke several different languages. I would def come back again."

Hotel Cappuccino

10/10 Excellent

"Very convenient. Clean. Staff helpful"

Hotel The Designers LYJ Gangnam Premier

8/10 Good

"Excellent location, clean, and nice service as a gentleman staff member helped me and my elderly parents with our luggage to the uber. The cafe attached had great pastries we bought everyday from and the rooftop bar on 13th fl had an incredible view. Good for getting mulitple beds and large rooms as it was very spacious. The rooms were clean, but the beds were kinda rock hard. They placed a board underneath the mattress of something. Couple frustrations, the lighting buttons were a pain to figure out, even til the last of our 10th day and annoyingly only had a main pad and not near the bed or bathroom. The AC was a huge problem as there was no way to set a temperature so we literally had to turn it on and off throughout the night as it would be too cold on and as soon as you turn it off, it would raise the room temp to 85° F despite it only being 65° outside. We lost a lot of sleep due to this odd remote controlled AC."
