The hotel's lounge room, although small by Sheraton standards, was perfect for me as a single guest. The room was very clean, but it tended to become warm again. The service was incredibly helpful and welcoming, especially the concierge who arranged tours and provided great shopping recommendations. The location, while not very convenient for shopping, was ideal for exploring both the north and south parts of Seoul, near the Express bus terminal. The dining options offered Korean, Japanese, and Western dishes, with good quality but lacking chicken or lamb choices. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although comfortable, was quite small with a tiny working desk that made it challenging to work efficiently. On the bright side, the suite was cozy and well-maintained. The service was a bit of a contrast too, with some staff being unhelpful and unfriendly, while others were attentive and directed us to great local eateries. The location, near the subway and bus stations, was convenient for both business and leisure travelers, although it could have been closer to the subway, especially during cold weather. The dining experience left much to be desired, particularly the breakfast options, but the facilities were satisfactory overall.
