Pros:

Good place. Very close to Namdaemun Market and Namdaemun Underground Shopping Street. Lots of restaurants around the hotel. Walking distance to Myeongdong Market and the Seoul Plaza (which had events on the weekend we were there)! They serve Korean and American breakfast at their buffet.

Pros:

Établissement vraiment très bien, confort, propreté, personnel attentif et très aimable. Service impeccable et pour le petit plus, le café, thé, et l'eau sont gratuit. Connexion Wi-Fi gratuit. Situation géographique au top, et une multitude de restaurants tout autour. Chambre très spacieuse, salle de bain au top douche italienne. Et bien sur des WC au top.Merci au personnel de l'hôtel pour sa disponibilité, sa gentillesse, son efficacité et son aide.Je recommande cet établissement. 🙂🙂🙂

Excellent Myeongdong hotel
Pros:

I cancelled my trip to Busan as 24 hours isn't enough and wanted to extend my stay in Myeongdong. My first hotel said it would be expensive and I would need to change rooms. I came across starhills and stayed for one night. Starhills is such a cool hotel. Big room with a big bathroom. If I ever visit Seoul again and want to stay in Myeongdong again, I'd stay here.

Cons:

PC in the room didn't turn on, looked like as if the hardware was empty. Not a big problem but there was no "do not disturb" sign.

Pros:

Struttura in linea con la descrizione letta nelle recensioni booking, personale gentile, ci hanno permesso di lasciare le valigie in hotel anche dopo il check out in modo da poter girare senza problemi. Colazione più orientale che occidentale ma non essendo un 4/5 stelle ed essendo in corea del sud ce lo aspettavamo.

Im großen und ganzen ein gutes hotel aber etwas versteckt
Pros:

Das Zimmer hat sehr hohe wände was es edler wirken lässt. Die Ausstattung war super es gab ein Glätteisen, Haartrockner, Computer, Wasserkocher, genug Lademöglichkeiten einen Kühlschrank etc. Das Frühstück hat auch gepasst. Es liegt 2 Minuten vom Namdaemun- Markt entfernt in der strasse vom Hotel gibt es viele Restaurants die U-Bahnen sind 6-8 Minuten entfernt und die Seoul Station 16 Autominuten.

Cons:

Da wir auf der durchreise waren hat es gepasst aber für einen längeren Aufenthalt würde ich es nicht empfehlen weil um das Hotel nicht so viel los ist

Fehlender Hygienestandard
Pros:

Das Hotel ist zentral gelegen und punktet mit einem günstigen Preis.

Cons:

Trotz des vergleichsweise niedrigen Preises erwarten wir nichtsdestotrotz einen Sauberkeitsstandart, dem das Hotel nicht gerecht wurde. Die Betten wurden zwar täglich gemacht und der Müll gelehrt, allerdings wurde nie gewischt, Staub gesaugt oder Staub geputzt. Und falls doch, hat man keinen Unterschied bemerkt. Manchmal haben wir den Boden mit unseren alten Handtüchern gewischt. Die frischen Handtücher waren meist fleckig. In der Lobby roch es immer muffig, weil es zugleich das Zuhause einer Katze war. Das Frühstück wollten wir gar nicht ausprobieren. Das alles machte den Aufenthalt dementsprechend wenig komfortabel.

Feedback
Pros:

Comfortable beds and excellent location. Layout of the family room is poorly designed. No wardrobes provided. The toilet door made such a noise that it was better to leave it opened throughout our 6 days stay. The curtain separating the bath was unusable. It kept sliding down. No privacy.
