This hotel is right in the midst of the Myeongdong shopping area and night markets, so it is great for the first time traveller. The hotel has a great breakfast buffet serving both western and Korean dishes. The hotel is clean. There are two washing machines and dryers for guest to use but very expensive - about $5 to wash and $5 to dry - and the dryers don't dry fully. That's the only criticism I have. Staff very helpful.

Excellent facility, kind and helpful staff. Basic but has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Very convenient location with great transport links. Good breakfast. The only area of improvement I could think of was maybe more channels for the TV as we only had Korean Cartoon Network lol. Apart from that would recommend 10/10.

We had a great stay at Ibis. We arrived early in the morning and Jacob, the manager very kindly allowed us to check in. The room was decent and the compact toilet was cleverly designed. We slept well and throughly enjoyed the convenience of the location. There were heaps of restaurants and retail around the vicinity. We took the airport limo bus 6015 to and from the hotel. The bus stop was right in front of the hotel. We would definitely stay here again!
