Very good location in Insadong and walkable to lots of attractions, good size room, simple but comfortable, pleasant staff
Building was under renovation and rebranding during the stay so it didn’t look its best. one of the entrances was shut so it was hard to find at first.
5.0
La localisation, la qualité de l’accueil et des chambres. La literie est irréprochable, confortable. La salle de bain très fonctionnelle et spacieuse.L’emplacement permet à la fois de la tranquillité et une proximité avec le quartier historique. Le personnel est vraiment extrêmement gentil.
Le petit déjeuner est ok si vous souhaitez manger salé.. pour le petit déjeuner sucré il y a seulement du jus de fruit, du pain de mie et de la confiture industrielle. Pas de choix. Peut être proposer au moins des fruits frais? Des pancakes? Et tout petit bémol pour la propreté sous le lit. Nous avons fait tomber quelque chose et en le récupérant sous le lit c’était très très poussiéreux même trouvé de vieilles lunettes de vue.

Location was perfect to do a lot of sightseeing by foot.
Perfectly equipped room.
Hotel is under renovation and has no reception area for guests or a lobby.
Only late check in at 16.00 and no place to wait.
Personal at reception rather unfriendly with very limited English

L'emplacement est top, au centre de tout et en plus, au calme. La chambre est spacieuse, propre, la salle de bain est petite quant à elle mais pratique. Le personnel est disponible et à l'écoute.
Le lit est très très dur.

他に泊まってる人は居るようでしたが全く人の話し声が聞こえず静かだった。ベッドが心地よかった。ちゃんとシャワーから暖かいお湯が出るし水圧も調整できる。

Ужасный отель. Единственный плюс - расположение.
Отвратительный опыт. После заселения нам потребовался еще один дополнительный номер. Я привыкла к хорошим отелям и хорошему отношению со стороны сотрудников отеля, но в этом отеле все было наоборот. Я никогда с таким не встречалась. Я нашла на букинге, что есть одиночный номер за 32$, я решила (и это ошибка!) спуститься на ресепшн и там забронировать этот номер. Когда я объяснила на Английском языке что мне требуется дополнительный номер, сотрудник сказал что не говорит на Английском языке, хотя при заселении говорил. 🫠 Он мне предложил номер за 80$ за наличные. Я удивилась и показала предложение на букинге за 32$ за эту ночь, он с милой улыбкой попросил минутку и… номер исчез из предложения букинга! После все попытки забронировать через букинг за 30, 50, 60, 70$ исчезали одни за другим. Сотрудник стоял и улыбался. Это было отвратительно со стороны персонала. 🤬
Но самое главное было следующей ночью - когда мы только вошли в номер, стоял отвратительный запах 🤢. Мы долго проветривали. Вроде бы все чисто, но ужасный запах. Мы были после перелета, было поздно и мы просто спали с открытым окном. Во всем здании стоял отвратительный запах. На следующую ночь мы вернулись поздно и легли спать и ночью я проснулась с ужасным приступом аллергии, это было опасно для жизни! Мы звонили врачу и пытались понять отчего так произошло! Это была ужасная ночь. Ответ был на следующее утро - при выходе из номера рядом с нашим номером сотрудник обрабатывал коридор и нашу дверь и все вокруг бытовым средством для травли тараканов. Естественно, аллергия была на это. Это было опасно для здоровья. Такое неприемлемо в отелях. Мы как никогда быстро уезжали из отеля. Отвратительный отель. Не совершайте ошибку, проходите мимо.

Location is great for anyone visiting. Easy access to transport too.
Our room had a bath/ shower so gd options.
The staff speak very little English and getting transport (taxi) is a challenge. Make sure you ask reception 1 day before if you need one. Did not have the breakfast but there are so many nice places around did not see the need.
Lack of hanging space for clothes and place to leave/ access an open case for 2 people in a twin room. I ended up with mine on the floor and my friend on a stool. The desk was not wide enough to store a case.

Location is near the bus stops, train stations and airport limousine bus stop ( bus 6002 and bus 6011).
Many restaurants and convenience stores nearby
Walking distance to Bukchon hanok village and Gyeongbukgong palace
Cleaning of room and change of towel is everyday
-Anyone can go up the floors of the room since the lobby is at the 2nd floor

I loved the quietness. Not a single noise at night.
All good
5.0
The location is 10/10. The fact that there’s 15 minutes walk to most of touristic attractions!! And if you need to use subway, there are 3 lines around the hotel + bus stations , so getting around city is super convenient!
The view from the room was impressive, the room was small but clean and cozy.
Also staff was helpful, they let us check in earlier, what we didn’t expect😍
There weren’t any place to store clothes in the room, so it was messy🤪 But it was manageable !

Very convenient to all the tourist spots in insadong. Superb cafe next door serving excellent coffee.
Nothing really. I found it a little difficult to work out the aircon settings but that’s on me cause I don’t speak Korean!

We chose the hotel because of the location, it was very convenient for us, close to metro stations, we could walk to Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bukchon Village.
The room is clean, the staff is polite, they tried to help with any question, the breakfast is standard. The hotel is suitable if you walk around the city all day and come only to sleep.

Location was convenient to tourist sights
The beds and pillows were EXTREMELY uncomfortable. And the rooms were awfully hot - so much so that we were forced to open the window - but then the street noise kept us up. It was a pretty miserable stay!😠

De locatie van het hotel was echt perfect! Er waren zoveel winkels, restaurants en bezienswaardigheden in de buurt binnen loopafstand en ook meerdere metro stations in de buurt. Binnen no time waren we in een andere wijk van Seoul. Het personeel was ook erg behulpzaam en vriendelijk.
De kamer voor 3 personen is nogal klein als ieder twee koffers bij zich heeft, veel loopruimte heb je dan niet meer. De bedden waren niet zo zacht, dus dat viel erg tegen.

Impossible de recevoir une facture pour mon séjour !! Et ce malgré mes multiples relances. Du coup, pas possible de justifier ma dépense auprès de mon employeur pour être remboursé.
C’est un comble !!!

離鐘路三街站很近,可以從4或5號出口,4號出口有手扶梯,
原本以為要下午4點後才能Chenk in,我們原想先寄放行李,但櫃檯人員就幫我們Chenk in,讓我們可以直接入住。
因為房間的冰箱太小,櫃檯人員很樂意幫我們冰我們的東西。
下次還有機會,會再選擇這間。
冰箱很小,空間也滿小的。
房卡也只有一張,有點不方便。

Dotazione ottima, ciabatte di cortesia e sistemazione molto buona. Pulizia, doccia funzionante, colazione media.
Il letto era duro e scomodo, ho dormito male. Visto il prezzo, non mi aspettavo questa scomodità

I had a delightful stay at Kuretakeso hotel in Seoul. The comfortable beds ensured a restful sleep, making my stay incredibly relaxing. The staff members were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, always ready to assist with a warm smile. One of the highlights of the hotel is its proximity to Iksan-dong, where charming trendy cafes are tucked away in small, picturesque streets. Exploring this nearby area added a delightful touch to my visit. I highly recommend Kuretakeso hotel for its comfort, hospitality, and convenient location for those who want to experience the trendy café scene in Seoul.
Overall, my experience at Kuretakeso hotel in Seoul was pleasant. While there wasn't anything specific that I didn't like about the hotel, I did find the price to be a bit on the higher side. Considering the amenities and services offered, I felt it could have been a bit more budget-friendly.

Breakfast staffs are friendly and regular manage the arrangements of food.
Front desk staffs are comparatively good in English and really helpful.
It’s ok to refill the water at breakfast areas which is good for the environment.
The happy hours may be extended or started earlier.

A very nice economy hotel with friendly and helpful staff. The room had windows with terrific soundproofing – no noise from the street, so the room was quiet and peaceful. The location is very convenient – several metro stations and airport limousine bus stops within walking distance.
The breakfast is a bit too simple for the price, better options can be found in the city.

Great location and friendly staff.
The pillow had a plastic cover which was very uncomfortable and made loud noises with even the slightest movements. My partner and I woke up multiple times each night. Please replace the pillows.

I like this hotel because of good location.
Nearby this hotel, there are a lot of shops and restaurants.
It was almost center of the city. Close to the station.
I think it’s very convenient if you will visit city sightseeing spot.
Washbasin’s stopper is broken. So I need to keep up and stable if I use water. It was so inconvenient.
And also, the room’s smell was strange when I into the room firstly. I needed to open the window and exchange the air.
Slipper was not clean.
It seems not change for a long time.
