Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

The airport bus 6001 stops about 100 meters to the right of the main entrance; just walk back from there. The front desk is on the 20th floor, and the lady there spoke excellent English. I had booked a random room but requested twin beds in the notes, which wasn't honored. The bathroom layout is a bit impractical, especially the lighting. If you need to use the restroom in the middle of the night, it's either the brightly lit hallway or the exhaust fan blasting away, and that fan is incredibly loud. I couldn't figure out the switches for the other lights either; there was just no night light. Disposable amenities weren't provided, but there were slippers and water. The hairdryer was really old-fashioned.

Great location, very close to Dongdaemun. The bed in the room was a bit small, but it's understandable for both Japan and Korea. It's a reliable chain, and the facilities and service are quite good. This marks my first time ordering delivery in Korea!

The hotel is a bit far from the city center, but compared to hotels in the city, this one offers better value for money. There's a subway station nearby, making it convenient to take the subway to various attractions. Alternatively, you can download a Korean ride-hailing app to book a car in advance or call one instantly, which is very handy, especially for larger groups of more than five people. There are also many restaurants around the hotel, offering all sorts of Korean delicacies – you just need to take a short walk to find them! The hotel front desk staff speak English and are warm and attentive. We booked two rooms: one king room and one twin room. The twin room had one queen-sized bed and one single bed, accommodating three people, and also featured a balcony. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and quite spacious, and the water temperature was just right. We particularly loved the hotel's shampoo and conditioner; our hair felt incredibly smooth after using them – we really want to know the brand! 😄 The hotel's buffet breakfast didn't have a huge variety, but the food tasted good. Overall, we were very satisfied with our stay!

The location is convenient, the room is clean and tidy, and the service is great.

The value for money is truly outstanding. The location is excellent, with plenty of great dining options nearby. Most importantly, the stay was very comfortable and the place was quite clean. It definitely lives up to its 1300 price. The service was also superb.
