voco Seoul Gangnam by IHG

The bed, duvet and pillows were very comfortable.

I had a great stay at Voco Seoul Gangnam by IHG. The location is fantastic — just a 5-minute walk from Sinsa Station, and there’s almost everything you need right around the hotel. There’s a UNIQLO right across the street, plus KFC, coffee shops, pharmacies, and even a 24-hour restaurant nearby, which made my stay super convenient.

The room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, and the bathroom was spotless. Room service is available until 11 PM daily, which is a nice plus. My only small disappointment was that the in-room dining menu didn’t offer many Korean food options.

Housekeeping overall was good, and the lady who cleaned my room was very friendly and kind. I did notice that there were a few pieces of garbage under the bed, so attention to detail in that area could be improved slightly.

I also appreciated how thoughtful the staff were. On the first day when I did not request cleaning service, they hung a bag of fresh towels and bottled water on my door, which was perfect. However, on the second day, I returned from lunch and found four new bottles of water placed on the minibar table and my towels replaced — even though my “Do Not Disturb” light was still on. I understand the intention was to provide fresh supplies, which I appreciate, but it would have been better if the front desk had called to confirm before entering the room.

One more highlight: my floor had a shared public kitchen where guests can cook or microwave food, which I think is a great feature, especially for longer stays.

Overall, despite the small issues, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely consider coming back.

Great location, nice view, comfortable rooms

I usually don't leave reviews unless if it is negative or if I am very pleased.I am very pleased this time is why I am writing this review. We travel a lot in Europe, Caribbean, Virgin Islands, you name it. Every time we travel we stay at pricey hotels where we pay close to $850 and up per night. The purpose of this travel was medical and we booked this hotel because it was just a walking distance from the clinic where I had my surgery. It wasn't expensive but it was 1000 times better then any other hotels we've ever stayed.The hotel is small and cozy with very friendly staff. Hotel grounds and the rooms are spotless clean which sometimes you can't find at the most expensive hotels. The breakfast buffet was the BEST! I never had anything like this before. Very generous amount of food, organization the way everything was served and presented was stunning! We will be back in June for more surgeries and we will definitely stay here again. VOCO I am in love! ❤️

とても清潔でよかった。カロスキルのエリアに泊まる際はまた利用したい。立地もよかった。

Ok

房間整齊乾淨，服務人員態度親切

The hotel is very close to Sinsa Station (Line 3) that makes it easy to go downtown. It is also surrounding by Gangnam shopping areas.

The room is clean and nicely furnished. We booked a room with a Hinoki bathtub and used it almost everyday. It had this very nice scent. Unfortunately, the bed and pillows were not really comfortable. I think the mattress was too soft. It slightly affected the quality of my sleep.

The floor also had a pantry, which was really useful to reheat your food or cook something light. We tried the hotel breakfast. It was alright. Nothing amazing but not bad either.

Service was okay. The senior staff were perfect but I think the junior ones needed more training. Jenny was particularly helpful. She helped us with checking out and booking a taxi to the airport.

Overall: 4.4/5.0

The location is great.
