Guest Reviews
- Carolin (8/5): - Das Personal war größtenteils sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Man konnte selbst bestimmen, wie oft das Zimmer gereinigt wird, was ich als positiv empfand. Waschmaschine und Trockner konnte man umsonst verwenden, Waschmittel und Weichspüler wurden gestellt. Das Zimmer war groß und geräumig. Das Bad war eher für Badewannen-Menschen gedacht, denn wenn man duschte, war alles überschwemmt. Es gab eine Rinne neben der Wanne, damit das Wasser abläuft. Eine ziemliche Stolperfalle. Das Hotel liegt sehr zentral, eine Station von Hondae, wenige Stationen von City Hall. Der Flughafenbus hält nur wenige Minuten entfernt. Ich kann dieses Hotel sehr empfehlen.
- Thira Thida (10/5): Lovely stay at Hotel Hip - My stay at Hotel Hip was fantastic. Spacious room, clean, comfortable bed, Wi-Fi, tv, mini fridge and ac all very useful. The staff was also very friendly.
- Yasuhiro (6/5): - このホテルは、ラブホテルの要素がありますが
普通のホテルとしても十分利用できます。
ラブホテルの文化がない国の旅行者なら、何も
感じないと思う。
ミネラルウォーター等の飲料が無料、朝に無料でトーストが食べれたりとありがたいサービスがある。
駅から近く、立地も良い。
ただ、私の部屋のバスルームにはバスタブのカーテンが無かったので、取り付けて欲しい。
- Kurtis (8/5): - Great service and very friendly. Big room with a big TV and PC computer. Massive bath.
Only issue is the design of the bathroom. As the bath is raised, it is a little dangerous trying to get in and out. It's also hard to walk in and out of the bathroom as the sliding door only opens a little and there is a hole for the drain.
- teri (10/5): - Staff allowed me to check in luggage prior to checkin and after checkout, which was super important for me. Thank you!!!
- Tibah (8/5): - Great place to stay!
- Esben (10/5): - Great stay, it felt very high class
- Lucas (10/5): - Meget flot hotel. Stort åbent værelse, men luftrenser, aircondition, jacuzzi, gratis morgenmad, vaskemaskine og tørretumbler. Intet manglede!
- Jen Hsiang (10/5): - 房間內有台桌上型電腦。一樓大廳有提供免費美式咖啡與冰飲,開車友善,提供免費停車位。
- James (6/5): - It had a nice big tub
- HSIN JU (8/5): 직원분이 친절하고 세탁기 건조기등 시설이 좋았어요! - 사장님이 엄청~~~친절하세요. 대만에서 온 걸 아셔서 중국어로도 인사를 해주셔서 너무 귀여우셔요. 객실을 큰 욕조 그리고 공기청경기도 있는 방으로 2단계를 업그레이드 해 주셨고 편히 자고 갔어요!(혼자 그 커다란 방에서 자기엔 좀 낭비하지만 ㅋㅋ)
지하 1층에 심지어 세탁기부터 빨래세제, 건조기까지 무료로 이용할 수 있다니...(이틀만 묵어서 이용은 못 해봤지만)
방의 비데에 물이 안 나오는 것 빼고 다 좋았어요 완전 기대이상이라 추천추천!!
- Eduardo (8/5): - Very comfortable hotel. Not the cheapest, but it definitely could've been more expensive. Easily reachable by bus and metro, but not within walking distance of any of the main neighborhoods. One thing that did bother us was the smell of smoke, but that's not true for all rooms.
- Faraz (10/5): - Stayed for a week. Overall enjoyed staying there.
- Dennis (10/5): - Really good location!
- Jean pierre (8/5): Sympa - Hôtel bien situé, chambre pas très grande , mais pas chère. Petit déjeuner light peu de choix.
Personnel très sympa.
Boissons gratuites
- Raymond (8/5): - The A/C is controlled by the TV remote. Took me 3 days to discover that. Area looks rough but all the areas look that way. Overall a good stay. I would do again
- Daniel (2/5): - HORRIBLE. DO NOT STAY. Non smoking “suite” reaked of smoke, uninhabitable I had to leave immediately and book another hotel elsewhere for health concerns.
Expedia is USELESS and will not advocate for you. When they reached out to the property, they claimed to not speak english and would not approve a refund.
SHAME ON EXPEDIA AND THIS HOTEL!!!!!
- Hakqun (10/5): - 가격대비 깔끔하고 넓어요
- John (8/5): - Room was clean and a very good value. Sufficient in size for a brief stay to visit a child attending Yonsei U. Very convenient walk to the university and surrounding area, and bus 6002 from the airport drops you directly across from the hotel. This is a local hotel, so don't expect the amenities or service of a big western hotel chain, but it was perfect. I will stay here again on my next visit. Note that AC is not available until May.
- SUNGMIN (10/5): 집을 떠난 집 - 일주일에 한 번씩 꼭 가는 호텔이며 내게는 집을 떠난 집처럼 편안한 곳이다. 직원들의 인지서비스가 훌룡하다
- Verified traveler (8/5): Closed to Ewha Womans University - Near Ewha Womans University
- Rosa Elena (10/5): - Staff is very attentive. Great location very convenient
- Simon (10/5): Mycket bra - Väldigt fint och trevlig hotell beläget centralt i Seoul.
Rekommenderas starkt
- Noah (10/5): - Really liked the tub in the room. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the subway station. Plenty of food options around. Staff was friendly.
- Emilyn (4/5): - Location is great, I really appreciate all the staff since they are helpful, respectful and one can speak English. Room is decent size but bathroom has no door. But all of the positive side cancels out because the room smells cigarette eventhough I requested a non smoking room. The smell is coming out of the vent in the bathroom and from the centralized AC vent in the room, so I have to open the window during my stay. Overall, it was not a comfortable stay which ruined some part of my travel in Korea. This hotel should’ve been advertised as smoking hotel.
- sook hyun (8/5): 가격대비 OK - 가격대비 나쁜 편은 아님. 좋은 점은 위치,교통. 객실에는 온갖 편이용품이 잘 구비되어 있음. 주차 가능. 간단한 컨티넨털 조식. 결정적인 단점은 중앙난방이기때문에 온도 조절이 불가능. 한 겨울에 너무 더워 창문을 활짝 열고 잘 수 밖에 없었음.
- GAHEE (6/5): - 그냥저냥. 병원과 가까워 숙박함
- Robin (10/5): - Great sized room and bath. Good area to be based in near Yonsei U. Super clean. Breakfast is light but more than sufficient.
- Felice (10/5): - Tutto perfetto a parte la vasca da bagno scomoda per l’ingresso gradino alto
- SUNGMIN (10/5): 굿 - 일주일에 한 번씩 이용하는 곳이고 집 처럼 편한하다
- Michael (10/5): - Really good options for public transportation, affordable, and lots of amenities offered (free laundry, breakfast, water and pop available in the lobby at all times.) you could tell the manager was doing his best to ensure everyone enjoyed their stay.
- Alejandra (10/5): - We loved our stay, thank you!
- Diana Alejandra (10/5): - It was an amazing experience! Quiet and relaxing! I hot a free charge upgarde and it was really confortable
- JINHWAN (4/5): - 청소 상태가 좋지 않습니다.. 싼 맛에..
- Margaret (8/5): - Overall this was a solid hotel. Conveniently located in the area I needed to be in, with good shopping, dining and transit options close by. Staff was friendly and helpful; for example on the last day when the elevator wasn’t working and I was trying to bring my bag down from the 5th floor, the front desk person heard me and immediately came to assist. However, the room did smell very strongly of cigarette smoke, which other reviews had mentioned and said no resolution was offered so I didn’t bother to report, and the bathroom had mildew on the ceiling. Otherwise, it was fine for what I needed…an inexpensive, clean place for a couple days. The room had a phone charger in it already, which was nice, and a jetted tub, which I enjoyed. If the smoke smell in the rooms was eliminated, I would consider another stay here.
- Spencer (10/5): - The suite was fantastic and provided a great place to rest and recooperate.
- Eun-a (10/5): 좋았어요~~~! - 혼자 평일에 다녀왔는데 무료 방 업그레이드도 해주시고 시설도 너무 좋았어요! 조금 더 여유가 있었으면 티비도 봤을텐데 티비를 못본게 아쉽네요 ㅜㅋㅋㅋ
다이어트 중이라 식당 음식을 먹진 못했지만 엄청 잘 해놓으셨었어요!!!
지하철역이 바로 근처라 어디 다른데 나가기에도 좋은거같아요
그리고 운전해서 갔는데 제가 갔던 경로에 엄청 큰 경사길이 있었어서 조금 무서웠어요 ㅠㅠ 그거만 아니면 주차도 해주셔서 좋았습니다!
- Allen (8/5): - Staff was super friendly and rooms were accessible and clean! There was some leakage from the washing machine and the dryer takes a long time to dry but everything was very pleasant.
- Yasunari (10/5): - It was clean and convenient. It’s Live Hotel, but I saw many family staying there, so good for tourist too.
- Marko (6/5): Good basic hotel for it value - Room was ok sized, no air conditioning. Bathroom had strange floor which was not on one level. There was a pit next to bath tub. Breakfast is very simple; just toast, eggs bananas & coffee. Rooms are not cleaned daily: So you have to you ask for that, which was ok for me.
- Ching-Ping (10/5): - Very fancy in terms of providing computer game facility.
- Taiz (10/5): Excellent value for money - Everyone was very attentive and responded to all our requests.
Very nice neighborhood, lots of restaurants and shops nearby, very safe. The bathroom is open, so I recommend it for couples or people who are very intimate. I recommend it and would stay again.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Good choice in Sinchon area - A nice hotel - equipped with a powerful computer (for computer games) - in Sinchon area
- Verified traveler (8/5): - 간단한 아침 식사가 제공되고, 직원분들이 친절해요.
- Terence (10/5): - My daughter wanted to stay near Yonsei university because her best friend was studying abroad. She had a safe and comfortable stay while in Korea in this hotel.
- Masaki (2/5): - 4泊しましたが、一度も部屋を掃除してくれませんでした。
掃除をしてくださいと2回も要請したにもかかわらず掃除してくれず、扉にも掃除してくださいの札を出しても掃除がされなかったです。
もう来ません。
- Gina Ivette (10/5): Excellent - We had a great stay here. Everywhere we went was fairly close to this location. We have a new amigo at this hotel. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Recommend 100%.
- Matthew (10/5): Great stay! - Enjoyed our stay, comfortable room, nice bathroom, clean and modern, good price
- I (8/5): - The location is convenient and i enjoyed 3 nights of stay there. Just a straight walk from sinchon station exit 4, with lots of convenience store nearby to buy snacks and banana milk. The bed is comfortable, with pillow case, blankets and towels smelling fresh. The receptionist can speak Mandarin very well (to my surprise) with limited English. The room is relatively clean compared to my other friends' accomodation in the area, just that there were some small flies near the basin (not a big problem). There were chargers in the room so no need to buy adaptor plug! Ventilation was good and room was quiet and peaceful. Overall a happy experience :)
- Christina (10/5): - I just stayed here for 9 days while I was in the city visiting my daughter who is studying abroad. The hotel was just what I needed and a great value. The staff is friendly, the rooms are clean, beds are comfortable, the toilet has a bidet!, toiletries are provided, and air conditioning was good. The room has a mini fridge and gaming system, but personally I would have preferred a microwave over the gaming system. They provide a simple but adequate breakfast every morning and bottled water and coffee all day. Also loved that the bus and metro were very close and convenient. I would definitely stay here again :)
- Verified traveler (6/5): Peut mieux faire - Aucun rangement dans la chambre, ne serait-ce qu’un tiroir .
Personne ne parle anglais, donc communication difficile
Petit déjeuner trop simple
Par contre grande chambre, salle de bain sympa, literie confortable.
C’est un motel et pas un hôtel
- Hannah (10/5): Wonderful stay in the heart of Seoul - Wonderful stay! Perfect for budget travelers. Close to university, and mountain hikes. Delicious coffee from the espresso machine downstairs (better than one from 7-eleven or CU). Bed is big. They have working jacuzzi in the rooms and they sell bath salts in convenience store nearby.
The staff is very friendly and caring! :)
- livia (10/5): - The location is excellent—close to two stations. The rooms are cleaned upon request, and they have coffee, eggs, toast, and bottled water every morning, which is nice to start the day. The manager - Woo Chul- is very helpful and gives advice and good recommendations. We would stay there again as the staff is super nice and the area is very hip and full of good vibes.
- Verified traveler (10/5): いいホテルでした。 - 部屋は広く清潔に保たれていた。また眺めもよかったです。
- Juan (4/5): - I have a bad experience in this hotel. The room I received, a/c was very noisy and I can’t sleep. A/C control is in the same tv control. Isn’t a very clean hotel. Is more like a motel or go to play games in the computer. Es como un motel de pasaje. No me volvería a quedar. No dormí por el ruido del aire acondicionado y le deben dar más empeño a la limpieza. Locación y estacionamiento bien. Las escaleras están con obstrucciónes. En caso de fuego o emergencia es un peligro.
- Alexander (10/5): - For a foreigner from Los Angeles this hotel was amazing. Close to sinchon station so easy to get to Seoul station if you need to travel within korea. I didn’t go to the airport but it’s easy to get there too as it’s close to the airport line. super nice area that’s not well known but has good food and is somewhat quiet which is rare for Seoul. Rooms are very nice and clean. This is the first hotel I’ve rated in Korea during my two week trip because for the price and location it is definitely a steal. Stay here
- Denis (10/5): - Le personnel est aimable et aide beaucoup.
La chambre est bien équipée.
Le petit déjeuner propose assez peu de choix.
Traces de mousse à raser ou dentifrice sur les miroirs.
Localisation est très bien.
- ALex (8/5): - 房間大,地理位置很好,酒店附近有孔陵一隻雞
服務員10分熱心幫助
- BYOUNGTACK (8/5): - it's very good
- Yu-Chang (10/5): - Staff can speak English. Clean. 5-7 mins walk to Ewha station
- Kim (8/5): - Good location near 2 underground stations. Great amenities, housekeeping done well every day. Basic breakfast offering included but sufficient for us to start the day. Good value for money, we’d stay again.
- 선경 (6/5): - 호텔이 아니라 모텔입니다. 금연이 되는 룸이 없어서 좀 아쉬웠습니다.
직원분이 환기시켰으니 괜찮을꺼라했는데 냄새는 좀 났습니다. 에어컨소음이 너무 컸어요.
조식가능이랬는데 토스트와 음료.시리얼. 삶은계란..그런대로 so so~
세면대가 너무 작았어요.
세수를 할수가.....ㅋ
- ?? (10/5): - 있을거 다 있음(욕실 문 빼고)
- Jeongeun (8/5): 가성비 좋은 숙소 - 아이의 검진으로 인해 세브란스 병원 방문에 의한 숙박을 신청했음.
아이와 함께 묵으려 예약하였으나 미 성년이라 다음은 않된다고 해서 조금 당황했어요. 호텔이라 생각해서 예약했거든요. 미성년을 동반한 가족분들은 참고 하시면 좋을 것 같습니다. 그 이외의 부분은 모두 만족했어요.
내부에 서비스 음료도 다른곳과는 다르게 정성들여 준비되어 있고 청결한 실내도 좋았습니다.
신촌 도심의 숙박가격대비 나름 괜찮았어요.
- Kelvin (8/5): Excellent hotel facilities, but poor bed. - Excellent location between 2 subway stations (walkable) with good food restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Even near an Olive Young store. Jacuzzi jetted bath is excellent. TV, minibar, hot water, hairdryer, toilet WC and shower are all good. They even have a massage chair in the room that works! Air conditioning works at 24 and 27 degrees. Some light snacks and coffee is available at B1 floor, with self-pay laundry machines. Wifi works well. They even have a desktop in the room for your usage! The only issue is the bed and pillow. They are not good (too hard bed, too flimsy pillow). There is only 2 hangers in the room, without any cupboard. If you dont mind a bed that is too hard, this hotel is perfect.
- Mariyah (10/5): Enjoyable and relaxing stay. - I had arrived earlier than the check in time but staff was kind enough to let me leave my baggage there. Do note the 'lobby' is simply a counter next to the lift and that the baggage area is an unlocked store so leave your belongings at your own risk.
The room was spacious and mostly clean. Shower area walls and curtain could do with a more thorough cleaning. Take note that the shower area and tub are in the open and toilet area is behind a semi-frosted glass - so best for singles or couples! My room came with a large square tub that has a jacuzzi function.
You get a ton of amenities including bubble bath soap for your tub (excellent if you, like me, did not bring a bath bomb). All of the amenities come in sample form - two types of shampoo and conditioner, body soap, hand & body lotion, cleanser, toner and emulsion, toothbrush and toothpaste, hair tie and cotton wool, a bath sponge AND a shower towel, 3 types of combs (?!), shaver and cream and even condom lol. There's daily refill of 3 water bottles and a corn silk tea drink, coffee and tea.
Comfy heated bed and pillows, a monitor that's connected to huge IPTV and relaxing massage chair. There's 24-hour free simple breaky and use of laundry room. TV remote connects to lights & AC. As it's a smoking hotel, they provide an air purifier which was helpful to get rid of smoke leaking from other rooms.
I booked here while looking for longer-term accommodation but will return just for a self-care trip!
- Jadarrius (10/5): - Great
- Rea (8/5): - We only stayed for one night but our stay was pleasant. Maybe the bathroom could have been a tad cleaner but other than that we enjoyed our stay.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very nice. I asked the sheets be changed they were suspect with hair. Otherwise very happy with all else.
Staff did not speak English so I had difficulty getting directions.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Blood stains on the sheets when I arrived, grime built up all over the tiles in the bathroom.
