9.2 Great hotel! - Jarmaine 22-06-2025

Review: Stayed here for 7 days. Initially requested for twin beds but there were none available so we had a king bed. Room is comparably huge. There was plenty of closet space, a mini bar and ref, smart tv, smart lighting and curtains, and a huuuuuge bathroom and vanity. The shower and toilet (with bidet) were separate from the tub.nBed was nice and firm, pillows were great. We could control the room temp so when it was really hot we were able to adjust accordingly. nWould stay here again!

10.0 The best hotel in Seoul! - Paridhi 22-06-2025

Review: I spent a lot of time looking for good hotels in Seoul and this one was the first one that I booked and it definitely did not disappoint. This is such a classy and sophisticated hotel. Everything is created with utmost care and intent to service its guests. The hostess was super friendly and even offered us an early check-in which was great because no other hotel gave us that in Seoul. We booked a Suite room with Club lounge access and that’s a must if you choose this property. They have a beautiful library with books from the 1900s. Location is quite great and very close to Myeondong. Overall highly recommend this hotel and do not even think twice before booking it!

Review: We enjoyed our stay so much at this hotel and plan to book the spring 2026 Korea visit at the same hotel again.nnI had left a pair of sunglasses, truth religion on the sofa (main level lobby). Please keep it for me so that I can pick it up next spring. The room we checked out today was 1901. Thank you very much.

7.0 Good hotel, annoying but comfortable room - Matthew 02-06-2025

Positive points: The decor was very beautiful, the staff were very nice and the bed was extremely comfortable

Negative points: The room was extremely dark and had very few plug sockets. It made doing things like charging phones and hair and make up very very difficult.

9.6 Outstanding Service - Erika 21-05-2025

Review: L'Escape is the most memorable hotel stay. The décor is luxurious and cozy with a murder mystery vibe but more modern than any Parisian stay I've been to. The staff were extremely professional and helpful through out our stay and gave us some excellent recommendations for food. I could not ask for a better stay and hope to be back in the future.

9.0 Excellent - Anonymous 28-05-2025

Negative points: Too many nobs for lights in the rooms made it a bit confusing (layout could have been more intentional)

8.4 특별한 경험으로 좋습니다. - boram 18-05-2025

Review: 특유의 분위기를 가지고 있는 곳이라 주기적으로 찾게 되는 곳입니다. 위치적으로 주변 편의시설을 이용하기에도 좋습니다. 다만 초기와 달리 샤워기의 상태나 문고리의 상태 등 점점 미흡한 부분이 많아지는 것 같아 아쉽습니다. 체크인 시 주요 시설 등을 미리 점검한 후 이용하면, 추후 늦은 시간에 발생하는 불편불쾌한 상황을 막을 수 있을 것 같습니다.

3.0 Acceptable - Jacob 27-05-2025

Positive points: Location was amazing, walkable to most parts of the city. Room was kitschy but fun and nice, definitely recommend the corner room

Negative points: The SMELL. OMG the smell. They have some perfume that is literally everywhere. I'm not normally sensitive to smells but I would describe it as a cheap soap kind of thing. And it was prolific. I'm talking even the free water bottles smelled like it. I had to open my windows to air the place out while I stayed there. I will not return if they do not stop the fragrance use.

10.0 Exceptional - Riko 15-05-2025

9.6 2 weeks stay - Edward 28-04-2025

Review: My wife and I had the pleasure of staying in the Boutique Home Presidential Suite, and it was an exceptional experience. The suite was beautifully designed, immaculate, and wonderfully quiet. The hotel staff were warm and attentive, and the housekeeping service was truly top-notch. nnThe hotel's location is incredibly convenient—situated right across from the Synsege Department Store, Namdaemun Market, and a subway station, making exploring the city effortless. We were fortunate to book the suite at an excellent discounted rate, and without a doubt, we will choose this hotel again for our next stay.
