An old fashioned, large historic building in the middle of Seoul( prime location.)
Due to Covid, the staff and the dining area were lax. Overall, very nice hotel.

The gorgeous hotel surprises with its exquisite European interior decoration. The friendly staff, clean rooms, spa and other amenities, light breakfast and delicious dinner in one of the hotel's restaurants will make you want to visit this hotel again. I highly recommend this hotel if you are looking for a unique experience.

Good Hotel
It was very nice hotel, very luxurious looking but a little on the older side.and the beds are more korean style were they are hard. Lots of things to do around the area, restaurants and shops. The hotel has a cafe and restaurant inside kinda expensive but really good food.
