The only reason I did give this five stars is because they didn’t have air conditioning available when I went (during autumn), only heater, even though the weather was unseasonably warm so the room was stifling. Other than that, the room was clean, the breakfast was extensive and the staff were friendly. Having the convenience store attached to the hotel was a godsend because I could get late night ramyeon without even going outside!

Our 5-day stay at the IBC hotel was wonderful. The room was clean; the bed, pillows and blanket were so comforable, we wanted to take them home with us; the bathroom had a separate shower, like home (no fear of water spraying everywhere); there was a safe, slippers, robes, closet, kettle, mini-fridge with bottled water; the staff was professional, kind, helpful; the breakfast was good; public transportation, shopping and restaurants all were in walking distance. We would definitely stay there again, and would highly recommend IBC hotel

Overall good hotel for travelers visiting Seoul. A bit of a walk from the market and other tourist shopping areas but close to bus stops and subway station. Close to convenience stores and a few restaurants if in the area. Hotel was overall decently clean and staff was friendly. Breakfast buffets was good food with a mix of western food and bibimbap.

Room very clean with bidet. No decor in room. Just bed, table and chair, built in desk and tv. Big shower with strong pressure. Close to transportation. Buffet small but OK. Laundry facility is adequate and cheap. Recommend u get climate card for unlimited travel on subway and bus throughout Seoul. Cost 3000krw and can load for 1 day or more days with longer selection yields lower per day price.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful, especially one gentleman who was able to get us a jumbo taxi to the airport at short notice - thank you! We used the laundry a couple of times which was easy. The 7-eleven was great to have as part of the hotel, and the Twosome Place was great for a couple of breakfasts on fast paced mornings. The location was great as it was a short walk to Sinseol-dong metro station for Line 1 and 2. The area was nice around the hotel, with a lovely little chicken place just up the road.
