The hotel is a great value. The beds are comfortable and the rooms are clean. The people who run the hotel are friendly. Great breakfast every morning and appreciate the free drinks in the dining room refrigerator. The hotel is right by the Yeoksam train station in Gangnam. Super convenient if you plan on exploring the South side of the Han River.

We were in the family suite that slept 4. There are only one of those. The room came with access to a semi private terrace also on that floor. Free breakfast buffet was small but very tasty. They have a delivery zone on the 2nd floor… BUT most of the restaurants listed never once opened during our stay. Convenient for those getting work done at Gangnam plastic surgery clinic. 2 convenience stores close by. Elevators and lobby is tiny and often crowded with luggage storage.

My family and I definitely enjoyed our stay at Seoul Inn Hotel by the Designers. The location was easy to find and within walking distance of the train station, so it was easy to commute to wherever we needed to go and we also liked that there were convenient stores close by. The entire vibe of the hotel was really cool and the staff was nice. The lounge area was really nice as well, very spacious. I would definitely book with them again the next time we visit Seoul! Thank you! It was all very pleasant.

Clean and cozy

The room was so clean and cozy. Also had Netflix so we could watch a movie every night, after a long day out. Breakfast was a nice touch. And the area around the hot has great restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Great for walking around, even at night. One minor suggestion: offering coffee all day is so nice, but please have offer creamer/milk to go with it. Otherwise, a beautiful, quiet, comfy place. Thanks so much!

Excellent location, basic breakfast included every morning from 7:30-9:30am. Room includes entry area for shoe removal with house slippers. The floor is heated as well! Bathroom has a bidet and slides for the shower, which are in the same room. There is a small fridge with waters and additional free beverages in the breakfast room. The microwave is also in the breakfast room. Excellent accommodations for the price!

Property is a gradual uphill walk about 5-7 mins from the train station, with a convenience store just round the corner. It's quiet but slightly further from dining options but hotel offers delivery option on level 2 and is very convenient with breakfast if you wake up by 9am. Some rooms have an in-room washer. Entire bathroom will be wet aftershower so if you like separate zones, this will not work for you.
