Amazing

Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, room was very comfortable with a nice view of the Seoul Tower. Breakfast was amazing with lots of varieties. We went to the airport late afternoon on the Day of our check out and the luggage storage was arranged greatly. Nothing to complain about our stay.

Cons:

Это позор для отеля, который заявляет о себе как о пятизвёздочном! Ни сервиса, ни чистоты, ни элементарного уважения к гостям!
Меня поселили в номер прямо напротив служебной комнаты уборщицы! После просьбы переселить сотрудники заставили меня ждать 40 минут, а затем просто сообщили, что свободных номеров нет!
Каждое утро я была вынуждена слушать, как уборщица работает в своём помещении. Дверь практически всегда была открыта, и каждый раз, выходя из номера, я наблюдала всю эту хозяйственную деятельность! Я заплатила за отдых в пятизвёздочном отеле, а не за проживание напротив подсобки!
Но это ещё не всё! Полотенца старые, изношенные, неоднократно попадались даже порванные! Уборка отвратительная, в номере огромное количество пыли!
Даже элементарные вещи персонал не способен обеспечить! Постоянно забывали положить ватные палочки, оставить воду! И так практически каждый день! Мне приходилось звонить, просить принести то, что должно быть в номере без каких-либо напоминаний, а затем сидеть и ждать! Почему гость пятизвёздочного отеля должен ежедневно тратить своё время на решение таких элементарных вопросов?!

Больше всего поражает абсолютное безразличие персонала и полное отсутствие контроля за качеством обслуживания!
За что этот отель получил пять звёзд — для меня загадка! Здесь не соблюдаются даже базовые стандарты чистоты и сервиса, не говоря уже о премиальном отдыхе.
Это не просто разочарование, а откровенное неуважение к гостям, которые платят за комфорт и качественный сервис!
Категорически не рекомендую! Руководству отеля стоит серьёзно задуматься, имеет ли заведение право позиционировать себя как пятизвёздочное при таком уровне обслуживания!
