Hotel Prince Seoul

I was in room 810. The bed is hard as a rock. I've slept on mats on the floor that were more cushy. The pillows are deceptive! They LOOK puffy and supportive, but by morning they're flat as a pancake. The room was SMALL. Only beaten by a "room" we got in Rome once that was literally just the size of the bed. CLEAN. But small. GREAT water pressure! Also, the hot water is instantly hot. Turn it on, it's hot. Also, it can get HOT hot! Shower is very small. There's a bidet. No microwave in the room. Oh! If you don't know this about Seoul, LOTS of mosquitoes! I'm going home with 8 bites. Breakfast buffet is good! bacon REAL scrambled eggs, hashbrowns, rice, a couple of soups. Breads, yogurt. (Plain! Add some chocolate granola to make it edible). Location is awesome! *JUST* across the street from the entry to the night market. NOT their fault, but you might want to know. The washer/dryer downstairs are reasonable priced and worked well. Oh! There's NOT an international ATM nearby. It's a bit of a hike to find one. And I would be remiss to not mention this. You know how you can set your A/C unit to run the fan all the time and the compressor when necessary? Not so here! If you choose A/C, it cools to it's target temp and turns off. If you want the fan, you have to try to figure out the remote. Which is all Korean! I had to use AI to figure out how to turn JUST the fan on which allowed the room to get hot. Not the mode I'd like.

Friendly and helpful staff, near train and airport bus station

A lot pf shops in the area.

Very accessible to a lot of restaurants, transportation hubs,shops.

The ondol room was THE BEST--it was HUGE, had two bathrooms, and was a great place for members of our group to meet up and talk about our plans for the day! We checked in and and out of this hotel several times as we traveled around South Korea (so I had the opportunity to experience several types of their rooms on different floors), and the hotel's location made it the PERFECT home base for many adventures. We were right across the street from the night market where it was easy to grab food and just steps away from a major metro station that was just a few stops from Seoul Station. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Thank you so very much for making our trip very comfortable and fun!
