Very nice hotel and comfortable stay. Walkable distance from a lot of nice shopping/food districts and the palaces and hanok villages. AC was a bit weak, but it was also very hot during our stay (+30 and above) outside. Staff were nice and helpful. Lots of restaurants, cafes and convenience stores just steps away.

It was a great location! Right in the middle of Gwanghwamoon and Jongro. Many good restaurants and great cafes to visit. The rooms are a bit outdated but was clean. A few blocks from Insadong was a plus if you'd like to shop some traditional gifts. The room was a bit outdated that it didn't have any usb ports. Since it is in the middle of many corporations/offices, there were so many restaurants with history and good food options and 24 hours Koobap places.

I stayed here for two nights in September. The location is very convenient, with three subway stations within easy reach. Gyeongbokgung Palace and Insadong are also within walking distance, making it a great base for sightseeing. I stayed in a room on the 10th floor, but one of the outlets next to the bed was broken and could not be used. Also, the faucet in the bathtub was loose and seemed like it might come off. For a Shilla Hotel, I was a little disappointed to see that some areas of the room were not well maintained. The amenities were also quite basic. Overall, I was very satisfied with the location and its convenience for sightseeing.
