Service was exceptional !
My recent & 2nd time experience staying 4 nights at this strategically located hotel was alot better than the previous one !
My daughter & I had a wonderful stay, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Check-in & check-out was quick and easy, our room was beautifully appointed and well-maintained. The housekeeping service was impeccable.
We especially appreciated the warm welcome note left in the room. Our daily requested for extra towels, toiletries delivered promptly including front desk receptionist, bellhop's assistance with our luggage & taxi booking to airport. Breakfast was delicious, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and welcoming.
We'll definitely be back again soon !

Excellent location
The hotel is situated in a very central location, close to the night market, shopping streets and metro station. The room was of average size, after adding an extra bed made it feel small. The breakfast buffet was good with a wide selection.

Great location
Location is good but our room with a doible bed does not have much room for our luggage. The toilet area quite small and in need of renovating. Unfortunately, our assigned room has a strong perfume odour so they moved us to another room away from our kids rooms. Overall, i guess you pay for the location as it is located in myeongdong shopping area.

Great Location with Great Amenities
Hotel Royal Seoul is located in the heart of MyeongDong. Accessible from both subway line 2 and 4. Hotel has all needed amenities (yes, they have slippers and robes), and their beds are very comfortable (with actual comforter)! Great for a tiring day!

Being an English speaker it was very easy to communicate with the whole staff. From check in to dinning the cleaning staff and security. Perfect location for see all the sights near by Just steps away from shopping and night market. Everyone was kind and helpful. It felt very welcoming and safe. The breakfast buffet was great with wonderful views of the city. Great afternoon tea and light snacks. We were in town 10 days. Two of which were spent in Busan. They stored our extra luggage during that time until our return. Very convenient.

This was a wonderful hotel for our stay in Seoul. Perfect location, lots of food, and stores. Only downside for my partner and i was the room being to warm and the thermostat wouldn’t change. Besides that everything was amazing.

Loved our stay here!!!! The staff were wonderful and so friendly. The hotel is in heart of everything so you can walk to any place. We spend 1 week just around the hotel because everything was so near by and one of the most popular location street is located right outside of the hotel. The hotel itself is so clean and peaceful. Would definitely stay here again and again when I come back to Korea. Couldn’t recommend this place enough.

Perfect location
Perfect location with easy access to food shopping. Centrally located to historic sites and equally entertaining neighborhoods. The staff is friendly and helpful. Mr Kim head of security helped greatly with my questions. It felt very relaxing and safe. Would definitely stay here again. They also stored our luggage while we left for a couple days to explore other parts of Korea. Before our return to hotel for remainder of our visit. Helped with calling taxis and any other questions we had
