Top Hotels Near Simsan Cultural Center in Seoul from NZ$60

"The location is truly top-notch—within walking distance to Eonju, Sinnonhyeon, and Gangnam stations. Unfortunately, that's where the positives end for me. Although Expedia listed this as a 5-star hotel, I would rate it no more than 4 stars. The room felt dated, the chair at the desk squeak upon any movement. Even small details like the retractable laundry line above the bathtub didn't work properly; after I pulled it out, the string failed to recoil back into the holder. Housekeeping was a major letdown. The bathroom floor mat was removed on day one and never replaced until my final day. A face towel was taken on day three and also not replaced until my last day. On day three, one of the bathrobes was removed and never replaced (though since I was alone, the second one sufficed), nor was I given bottled water. On my last day, the room finally had a floor mat, two face towels, and two bathrobes. I found a pumpkin seed under the desk, clearly left by a previous guest. One small positive: I was on a low floor and could open the window for fresh air, which was a nice touch. Prior to my stay, I messaged the hotel to ask about the airport bus at 2 AM and whether the airport bus served the hotel. I was assured that the bus does stop right in front. However, upon arrival at Incheon airport, I discovered this is only true after 6:30am. Given the price, the dated condition of the room, and the poor housekeeping, I likely won't return—despite the location."

"Great location, connected to a mall and subway station. Excellent helpful staff. Highly recommend it"

"It was nice with Breakfast ( various choices) on the top floor. "

"Yes, everything was perfect."

"The Grand Hyatt Seoul has a fantastic location above Itaewon with beautiful views, and that's about all it has going for it. The service was among the worst I have experienced at a hotel in this category. I repeatedly asked for housekeeping and no one ever came. Turndown service simply doesn't exist here. For a property charging luxury rates, these are basics, not extras. Credit where it's due: a manager kindly moved me to a renovated room, which was a welcome gesture, and breakfast was decent enough. But one helpful staff member cannot make up for a hotel that seems indifferent to its guests. If you are considering the Grand Hyatt for a Seoul trip, I would strongly recommend the Four Seasons instead — comparable location in old Seoul, and they actually understand what service means."

"Very clean, well appointed and a large unit."

"1人旅で3泊しましたが、温泉もそれほど混まずゆっくりできました。夜鳴きそばやロビーの無料コーヒーなどもあり快適な滞在でした。スタッフも皆さんフレンドリーで完璧な日本語で案内してくれます。洗濯機が無料で使えるのもボーナスでした（乾燥機は別途有料) 一時的のようですが、空港行きバス乗り場もホテルの目の前で大変便利でした。確かに立地は坂の上にありますが、シンノンヒョン駅からホテルへの上り坂はそれほどキツく感じませんでした。オンジュ駅からのほうが下り坂で楽です。また韓国へ行く際は利用したいです。"

"Affordable hotel in an excellent location."

"The location of the hotel is excellent. Sinnohyeon Station Exit 7 is within 5-min walk. Gangnam Station is around 15-min walk. Lots of shopping stores and restaurants near proximity of the hotel. If you are also into Korean skin treatments, I super recommend you stay in this hotel since most skin treatment clinics are located here. Staff are very friendly and good in English, so it was very easy for me to check-in. I will definitely stay at this hotel again if I visit Seoul again."
