    The rooms at Hotel Icon are new-fashioned and neat, providing water bottles and a bathroom. the breakfast offers toast and muffins. - the hotel's location is really close to Palace, Changdeokgung and Unhyeongung, as well as the Insadong shopping district and attractions.

    We had a great experience staying at this hotel with our group of friends. the location was perfect, with many tourist attractions and restaurants close by. We loved that it was between two train stations and had easy access to three metro lines that took us anywhere we needed to go. Our room was comfortable and clean, with traditional floor heating, ample toiletries, and fast Wi-Fi. the staff was friendly and provided us with everything we needed, including a lobby table for my friend's laptop. the free breakfast was also a nice treat, with roasted eggs, jam, butter, and more.

    The room was small, which was a bit of a challenge since our group had a lot of luggage.

    I recently stayed at this hotel and was pleasantly surprised by the value for money. The room rates were very reasonable, especially considering the strategic location of the hotel. It was conveniently situated between two metro stations, making it easy to get around and explore the major tourist attractions. The staff were friendly and attentive, ensuring that I had fresh towels and water bottles in my comfortable room with twin beds.

    All in all, my experience at this hotel was satisfactory.

    This hotel is a great value for money and offers basic amenities that are perfect for a budget-conscious traveler. The location is fantastic, situated between two metro stations and close to major tourist attractions. The staff is helpful and cheerful, always going above and beyond to assist guests. The rooms are clean and tidy, with fresh towels and complimentary water bottles. The beds are comfortable, providing a good night's sleep after a day of exploring the city. The buffet continental breakfast, although simple, is filling and ensures guests start their day off right.

    All aspects of this hotel were satisfactory.

    I recently stayed at a hotel in Seoul and I must say, it was a pleasant experience. the location of the hotel was great, nestled between two metro stations and conveniently close to major tourist attractions. It made getting around the city a breeze. Secondly, the staff at the hotel were friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests or inquiries. And lastly, the rooms were comfortable, featuring twin beds and fresh towels, along with complimentary water bottles.

    While I had a generally positive stay, there was one minor aspect that could be improved upon.

    The hotel had a great location, just a short walk to local restaurants and shopping. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Plus, the bonus of complimentary fruits and croissants in the fridge was unexpected and generous.

    It was a bit challenging to find the hotel on foot for the very first time. It would be better to just take a taxi from the nearest train station.

    We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was great, with many main attractions nearby and close proximity to restaurants. Additionally, the cleanliness of the rooms was exceptional and the staff was very accommodating. Transportation was also easy, with two subways located between the hotel.

    Nothing, all was good.

    The complementary champagne bottle and chocolates were a nice touch to start our romantic escape. the hotel's location was perfect for exploring the nearby cafes and boutiques. the room was cozy and comfortable, with a beautiful view of the city.

    The noise level in the hotel was a major issue that interrupted our peaceful stay. the walls were thin and we could hear our neighbors talking and even sneezing.
