Spa Hotels in Seoul

"Excellent! The room was very clean and tidy, and the bathroom was spacious. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby, so you don't have to worry about finding food. There's even an OY (shopping area/department store, assuming 'oy' is a typo for a local landmark or shopping area) nearby to explore. We were only there for a short time as we were attending concerts for two days, but we slept very well. There were 3 complimentary bottles of water in the fridge, so we didn't have to worry about being thirsty. If Inspire is still open next time, we'll definitely stay here again~"

"Location: The hotel is right next to Yongsan Station, making it super convenient for getting around by subway or bus. Service: The front desk staff were really friendly and helped us switch to a room with a view of the Han River, and the night view of the Han River was absolutely stunning. Amenities: The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with everything we needed. We had a very comfortable stay. We're planning to book this hotel again next time."

"The 10 AM check-in time caught me a bit off guard; I really should have double-checked. Nevertheless, I was waiting in what I presumed was the lobby, and perhaps sensing my plight, they kindly allowed me to check in a bit early. I was extremely grateful for their understanding."

"Very beautiful hotel. Greeted by staffs who helped open the car door, and get your bags and luggage to the check in counter every day! Only bummer was at check out timing is 11am, we tried asking for later check out timing during check-in and was told hotel is full. Managed to get a late check out of 12pm when we tried again the night before leaving the hotel. Hotel has a little mall,a coffee bean, CU, some expensive restaurants. It also has a sauna (30K won per pax), 1 hot and cold tub and one sauna room. Room amenities can be requested via the web app in your room. Rooms were very modern, however Water from the shower does flood the dry toilet area a little. Generally a great stay."

"The hotel's design is quite unique and seems well-suited for Korean travelers or solo adventurers. Communication was a bit challenging as the hotel staff didn't speak English, so we relied on Google Translate. However, they were very helpful and had a great attitude. Regarding the room, we booked a city view, but it wasn't quite what we expected. Instead of a clear glass window, you had to open one window, then another, to see the view. The frame of the first window also had to remain open to enjoy the scenery. Also, the window was quite high up; you essentially had to stand on the bed to get a glimpse of the view. The bathroom had a bathtub that could be used for a stone-style hot spring. If you prefer showering, it's not ideal as there's no shower curtain, meaning the entire bathroom gets wet. The room offered Netflix, but the remote control was a bit finicky and sometimes unresponsive. On a positive note, there was a speaker system in the room to play music. Overall, the soundproofing needs improvement as we could hear conversations from the adjacent room. The hotel's location is convenient, close to the subway and bus stations. There's a small night market and a snack discount store right behind the hotel, and it's also near tourist attractions. This hotel is more suitable for backpackers looking for a local experience. I wouldn't recommend it if you have a lot of luggage."

"This time I traveled to Korea alone to watch a performance. I was a bit hesitant to choose this hotel because it's quite new and there weren't many reviews available. Ultimately, I decided to stay because it was close to the venue. The staff were friendly and could communicate in English. The location is convenient; it takes less than five minutes to get to the subway station. Downstairs, there's a convenience store and a fairly large shopping mall with a big supermarket inside. The room also has international power sockets, which was a huge plus. The shower had plenty of hot water, and the toilet had good water pressure. The only downsides are that it's a bit inconvenient for solo travelers if you return to the hotel late, as there aren't many restaurants nearby where you can dine alone. The bed was a bit hard, and it creaked with even small movements. The pillows were too soft, making it hard to get comfortable. Also, the soundproofing is mediocre; you can hear noises from outside the door quite clearly, so I recommend bringing earplugs. Nevertheless, the overall experience was very good, and I would stay here again if needed."

"The owner is friendly and the room is good The smell of indoor cigarettes is very bad."

"I wanted to highlight some details I noticed during my trip: 1. They cleaned all the stains off the magnifying mirror, a service I haven't received at other hotels of the same star rating. 2. I visited during the ***** New Year (CNY), and the hotel diary correctly labeled it as CNY, not LNY – much appreciated! 🫶 3. The hotel was very attentive to personal belongings; even when I went downstairs to pick up takeout, they carefully verified the order number. Additionally, the hotel breakfast was excellent. I stayed for four days and three nights, and I had a very satisfying breakfast every morning. The room itself was a bit small, but its convenient location made up for it. It was easy to get around by taxi or on foot! Just a heads-up: if you're heading to Incheon Airport from here, you should allow 1.5 hours for travel time, as there can be traffic. Gimpo Airport might be a more convenient option."

"This hotel is only a block away from The Convention Songpa where we attended our friend’s wedding. It is a bit far from tourist spots in town but it’s on subway line 8. Lotte World Tower and Olympic park are close by. If I come back to Seoul again I probably won’t stay here. Personally I was disappointed with the breakfast. I normally love Korean breakfast but their options were very limited and the same food all three days we stayed there. There was a problem with the drainage in the shower. I stood in a pool of water the whole time and I had to stop my shower twice because I was afraid I was going to flood the floor. If you need hair dryer and iron, you’ll have to request from the front desk. There wasn’t a shower floor mat/rug either. The cleaning staff were very nice though and the front desk folks speak English well."

"This hotel is located right across from Gwangjang Market, down an alleyway with plenty of restaurants nearby. We booked a suite, which was compact but well-organized. It had a unique layout with the bathtub separate from the bathroom, placed next to the bed. The exhaust fan above the tub was constantly running and quite noisy; we couldn't find a switch. We also had trouble with the card key (you have to hold it over the picture on the card, not the numbers). When we mentioned this to the front desk, a female staff member came to help and we also asked about the fan switch (see photo). She mentioned that many guests don't know about it, which made me think they should inform guests at check-in. We also learned that cleaning isn't done unless specifically requested, and this wasn't explained to us either. The staff, including those who spoke Japanese, were very friendly, but we felt there were many things we had to ask about to understand. I also noticed a strong cigarette smell in the room. The female staff denied it, but if it wasn't smoke, it was a very unusual odor that clung to our clothes and luggage. Regarding the limousine bus to Incheon Airport, there isn't a stop nearby. The closest option is to walk to Euljiro 4-ga station and catch it from in front of Hotel Kookdo. (The Connect map showed a bus stop nearby, but their information is sometimes inaccurate). Despite these issues, there were many good aspects, such as the underfloor heating in the room and a table that converted into a dressing table. However, the front desk is unstaffed at times, so I think it would be better if they provided written information about things guests need to know in advance. (My questions via Trip.com also went unanswered, so they might not have been read). There are many questions that aren't immediately clear at check-in."
