This hotel has been given very mixed reviews so here is my review as I have recently stayed here last week. The staff here were always pleasantly polite and helpful especially if you have any questions about tours or sights in seoul. They always bow to you as this is a korean custom and greet you in korean I would... more

We have originally booked into another hotel in Myeong Dong however we found out that we arrvied in Seoul one day earlier than expected so we had to book into another hotel for the first night. Walking into the lobby, you can tell Hotel Koreana probably used to be plush in its hay day, but everything from the brass to... more

I stayed in the Koreana with my girlfriend for about 2 weeks. The purpose of my travel was purely for leisure and I wanted to visit the major sights of this beautiful city. Even though this was my second time in Seoul, very soon after arrival I found out that the location of the hotel is just excellent. It is... more

The Koreana is a great place to stay - it has a fabulous location, just across from the central city hall square, and the staff are very friendly. I don't know what all the suggestions that there is no shampoo in the rooms are about - they definitely give you shampoo!! I think my only gripe is that there was... more

I selected this hotel for its location as advocated by lonely planet and other reviews. However I was disappointed. Pros - friendly and efficient chambermaids - near to Cheonggyechon (stream) and KNTO HQ - KAL bus-stop is located right in front of the hotel - the deluxe room is spacious - they changed the TV to a huge flat screen... more

When I first booked this hotel at hotelclub.com, I was a bit worried after reading some of the negative reviews on this hotel. However, it has a airport shuttle bus stop right at the front door and as I do not know any Korean, this is very important to me. So, I still booked this hotel. When I arrived, the... more

1970s pretty sums up my experience with this hotel, in terms of outfitting and service levels. Counter staff are cold and not helpful when approached for directions. Concierge has no clue about restaurants outside the hotel and places of interest. No one offered to carry my bags to my room. No shampoo or shower gels are provided. Thankful that i... more

Stayed two nights here. Let me state that I disagree with some of the comments about the hotel being "tired and worn". I didn't find this true at all. Sheets were as crisp and new as possible, same for towels. There was one stain on the carpet, furniture wasn't that old, lobby very modern and clean. Same for restaurants. The... more
