Great place to stay at a reasonable price in this area of Seoul. The breakfast that was included was excellent, offering both western and Korean inspired options. Staff and cleaners were very considerate and left extra towels and water outside of our room while we were out. I would consider staying here again in the future.

Overall worth staying as they have basic necessities; breakfast was very ideal and delicious. Wish the hotel had better gym equipment, other than treadmills; nobody uses incline bike machine, found it to be waste of space. Friendly staff !

This hotel was near the Sinseoldong Subway Station making it very easy to get to places by public transportation. Across the road from the hotel between the hotel and the subway station was a really excellent restaurant, Hymchan Jangeo. Something really nice about the hotel: there was a foreign currency exchange machine right in the lobby. Very convenient. The only complaint that I have is that the room was a little bit cramped. Given all the other positives, however, I really recommend this hotel.

Our 5-day stay at the IBC hotel was wonderful. The room was clean; the bed, pillows and blanket were so comforable, we wanted to take them home with us; the bathroom had a separate shower, like home (no fear of water spraying everywhere); there was a safe, slippers, robes, closet, kettle, mini-fridge with bottled water; the staff was professional, kind, helpful; the breakfast was good; public transportation, shopping and restaurants all were in walking distance. We would definitely stay there again, and would highly recommend IBC hotel

The staff was very nice, they even gave us a treat as we checked in with free in hotel water and a very convenient 7-Eleven location right inside the hotel. However the sheets were not comfortable, the Air Conditioning did not work, the shower took a very long time to get warm, the room had a lot of dust, the bathroom was not very clean, and the carpets were very old and felt like they had not been cleaned in a very long time. We stayed one night and it was more than enough. Transferred to a new hotel in the morning.

Room very clean with bidet. No decor in room. Just bed, table and chair, built in desk and tv. Big shower with strong pressure. Close to transportation. Buffet small but OK. Laundry facility is adequate and cheap. Recommend u get climate card for unlimited travel on subway and bus throughout Seoul. Cost 3000krw and can load for 1 day or more days with longer selection yields lower per day price.

There is a luggage storage service available before check-in time or after checkout, free of charge. The rooms are kept clean and peaceful, and the Korean front desk staff can communicate in English. The Korean housekeeping staff are attentive and friendly. We did not have the chance to try the breakfast, gym, or laundry facilities. If you need any quick snacks or essentials, there is a 7-Eleven located within the hotel, behind the lobby area. To travel from the hotel to the airport or vice versa, you can take the bus. The nearest bus stop is approximately a 10-15 minute walk from the hotel. You will need to take bus numbers 6002 and 17,000 won for a one-way trip. We highly recommend trying the fried chicken from Gamachi Chicken, which is located near the hotel – it's incredibly delicious! Lastly, if you're staying during the weekend, there's a flea market nearby which is worth checking out.
