Pros:

In super centro! Posizione comodissima per andare ovunque!!
Pulizia ottima, anche la lavanderia tenuta benissimo.

Cons:

Ho trovato le persone alla reception un po’ fredde, al checkin il signore alla reception mi é sembrato spazientito. La ragazza al checkout invece carinissima.
Ma è una goccia nel mare

Great location with good access to the metro and near to Myeongdong night market but is not noisy.
Pros:

The staff were helpful and responsive and accommodating.

Cons:

The rooms were not adequately lit and felt abit dim. The power points in the room were also a bit faulty and placements of the power points were not ideal.

Sensational hotel- five stars on location, ambiance and comfort!
Pros:

Amazing property! Great location- only a 20 min walk to N Seoul tower and right by a beautiful river! Close to loads of shops and the hotel had a vending machine of snacks and drinks which were so easy to use.

The staff were amazing!! The woman in the Manhattan bar (so sorry we didn’t get your name!) paid such good attention to us and even kept the kitchen open a smidge longer so we could order food when we were slightly later back. She was so wonderful- so kind and helpful!

We got upgraded for free and our room was beautiful- amazing view, lovely bathroom and super comfortable beds. The best hotel of our trip so far- we miss it already!

Cons:

The restaurant could have had a couple more options but the food it served was really really nice!

Pros:

Surely the Stanford Hotel Myeongdong is one of the best to stay in Seoul, South Korea .I strongly recommend it as it located in the heart of the main street. Within few minutes walk from the metro station cityhall lines and bus stations where you could get into your destination easly and fast. The night markets are within walking distance. Most of the attraction places required to use either Ubber, buses or trains. The recieption staff are all really very supportive. The coins laundry service is well maintained and has enough washers and dryers machines. I really appreciated the managment team who works behind the seen for the guest comfort. Thank you very much. We did not use the menu at this hotel, so I have no idea about the menu taste.

Cons:

The value of money compared to the room size is too much. The rooms are small but well orgnized.

בהחלט מומלץ - מיקום איכות ושרות
Pros:

מיקום מצוין בעיר מאפשר לצאת לטיולי כוכב יומיים בכל רחבי סיאול,
תחבורה ציבורית מתחת למלון, במיקום מצוין באזור מיידונג עצמו
הגעה קלה מהשדה תעופה וחזרה
שרותיים, אדיבים. חדרים מצויידים כנדרש , ניקיון יומי של החדר , בקבוקי מים בחדר ,
מתקן מים חמים קרים וקרח במסדרון הקומה.
מנהל המלון אדיב מאוד ומתעניין בשביעות הרצון.
עמדת החלפת כסף במלון, חדר כושר וחדר כביסה, בהחלט נחזור לשם בביקור הבא
כל מה שביקשנו נענה בחיוב

Cons:

מענה של צוות הקבלה בהתכתבות מוקדמת להגעה
ניקיון אפשר להקפיד יותר על אבק ושאיבת שטיח
קטנוני לא להחליף שובר של קבלת פנים ובמקום מיץ לתת קפה
אין פינת עישון או חדר המיועד למעשנים נדרש לרדת למטה לסימטה צדדית - קשה בדרום קוריאה למעשנים
