My second time to stay in this hotel. The staff is very friendly and comforting. Check in and check out were very fast and smooth. The rooms are good. The bathroom is slightly disappointing but has everything necessary. The breakfast is very good with a nice selection of dishes and fresh juices. The location is. Nice - very central. Also... More

This is an older property but very well kept and solid. Staff is very efficient, great service. Club level is really excellently appointed and as good as at a JW - well worth the upgrade. More

Stayed here last week whilst in town on a business trip. Rooms were a good size and well equipped, bath robes and tea and coffee making facilities included. Good choice of TV channels including 3 BBC channels which had a good variety of programmes. Electrical sockets are standard European round 2 pin, however by the desk there were multi sockets... More

We stayed here for two nights and I can say that the hotel is a good place for weary tourist like us. However, the location is far from where the shopping is. Had to content ourselves with the family mart and 7-11 store across the street. Breakfast was okay not fantastic. More

I stayed here for a week in April. Overall, I felt it was a really good choice for a hotel. It is south of the Han River which is not the main downtown area of Seoul. North of the river has the palaces, shopping, etc. South of the river, where the Renaissance is located, has more businesses and office buildings.... More

This is one of my regular hotels when I go to Seoul. Compared to other international hotel brands in Seoul it is easily the best value for money. The food is first class especially the (very expensive) steakhouse. One word of warning, if you need to extend your stay and they don't have rooms they will always try to steer... More

Spent 3 days in this hotel with my family for a vacation trip in Seoul. I must say that the service is Marriott style solid! All employees were friendly and professional. The room itself was relatively big (bigger than I expected), but it seemed a little bit old for its standards- the deco (like many comments here) is antique style... More

Location was spot on for a two day stay. Jump on the KAL limo bus from the airport (6703) and it will drop you right out side the hotel. This is a lot cheaper than a taxi from the airport, about $15 one way compared to $100 for a taxi! The staff were very helpful, considering the volume of people... More

There are many restaurants, bars and coffee shops near the hotel and a samll grocery across the street. The buffet in the hotel restaurant is fabulous, but a bit expensive The rooms are very... More

We had a 10 day stay for a family visit. The staff met our every need. Many staff members speak English. The breakfast features food from every country, so you can find "comfort food" for breakfast no matter where you're from. The fresh juices are different every day. The rooms are comfortable, the beds excellent. I really enjoyed the Gym... More
