7.0 Very good - Tyler 06-04-2025

Positive points: The staff was very friendly and helpful. We originally had one of their apartment swuites but there was mold all over the bathroom, they let us switch to the main hotel.

Negative points: We switched the the main hotel because of mold in the bathroom of the apartment suite, they did not provide any discount for switching to a smaller room.

8.8 It was good - Newday 20-05-2025

Review: Good

7.0 Breakfast was ok, but a continental style buffet would have been better. - abdul 21-01-2024

Positive points: Quite, peaceful area location and close to freeway for transportation to city and airport, proximity towards the DMZ.

Negative points: As we had booked for two rooms for three persons, not knowing they had given a us two bedroom apartment across the hotel which they manage. The issue is, they did not provide a porter to carry our luggage across the freezing cold weather outside to the apartment block which was 100 metres away around 9pm at night.rnBeing a Five Star Hotel I did not expect this sort of service from this hotel chain.

9.6 Nice hotel - Alexander 19-05-2025

Review: Great hotel for the price

10.0 Great staff. Great hotel room. 10/10 would recommend - travis 25-12-2023

Positive points: The aesthetic of the hotel was really nice and had a luxurious like atmosphere.

Negative points: The bathroom door scraped the ground because the door was too low to the floor

6.0 Photos don’t match the actual room. Old - Amy 20-12-2023

Positive points: Not much

Negative points: It’s very old. The ceilings in the bathroom are rusty, wall paper falling off.

5.0 Very disappointed. - Julian 20-09-2023

Positive points: The deli had very limited breakfast items the old restaurant on the ground floor is closed and no longer used, a pity, We did not try the buffet.

Negative points: The full restaurant is no longer open. Lounges are closed or not in use. Hotel no longer provides wash cloths in rooms. I have stayed in this Hotel for many years when it was operated by Hilton (from 2010 up until 2019) and chose the Swiss Grand because it occupies the former Hilton property. I regret I was very disappointed - restaurant and bar / lounge closed, it seemed the property was only half-open. I regret I am unlikely to stay there again I will seek a more fully operational property for my next visit to Seoul. I am really sad, as this was my go-to place to stay for 10 years, but it is not the place today it used to be.

1.0 Legacy hotel falling parts. - Yui 22-08-2023

Positive points: Space

Negative points: No wifi connection without extra charge. No adequate dailies supplies. You need to sollicite toilet papers at a reception in a building a block away after 6pm. Receptionists are so disengaged. The building were so horribly maintained with water leaks everywhere. Several giant cockroaches were observed. No arrival supports (indicating reception area, no luggage handling supports(It meant to be a survive appart so it is natural to expect large number of suitcases). And the most importantly non of these details were communicated prior to the arrival.

10.0 Good place to stay - Aden 10-05-2025

Review: Good place to stay

5.0 Don’t raise your hopes and it might be a good stay - Anwar 08-07-2023

Positive points: Nearby bus station, close to some fast food franchises, you were restocked with your everyday needs at 9:00.

Negative points: Wifi is for an additional fee. Reasonable value for accommodation. If you want to stay it should only be to sleep and leave for any activity.nOld antiques furniture, breakfast buffet in another building.nThe apartments were in another building far from the hotel building.nThe airport bus shuttle station was suspended during our stay.

8.0 comfortable suites for larger parties and longer stays - Linda 30-05-2023

Positive points: convenient for a family for longer stays. the suite was large, fully furnished with washer & dryer and full kitchen. the staff were extremely courteous and helpful.

Negative points: the property maintenance was lacking, the washer leaked. there was no WiFi, no laundry detergent and not close to any subway stops. however, taxi turned out to be surprisingly inexpensive in Seoul. great for my elderly mother.
