A new and polished hotel, Marinabay is everything you need for short stay. With a nice view for some rooms over the Marins, it’s well positioned. Being out of Central Seoul is in a fairly sparse part of the city and for restaurants and bars, you will need a 20-30min taxi into town. The hotel is very nice and the staff are very helpful. For business travelers it’s perfect as each room has a desk. Rooms are larger than average versus downtown hotel. Has a roof top pool and an indoor pool but as it’s February for my visit, I didn’t use either.
Stayed only a night so interaction with staff was just a brief encounter at check-in and -out.
Located right next to Kintex and has a 7-11 right next to the lobby, so it’s extremely convenient for persons attending concerts or conferences.
Room was simple. Loved that it comes with a washer even though I did not need to use it. It would come in handy for anyone staying here for long durations.
Bed and pillows were comfortable. And the heating was great. There’s also a small balcony accessible from the room. Fitness centre is on the second floor.
Just to note though:
There isn’t much space in the room to move around and might be hard for two sharing the room if there are more than one luggages.
The notepads/information sheets area was slightly dusty- ie i could see dust specks on it and floating around when the items were lifted.
But everything was in working order and condition and I would stay here again if I have to attend an event nearby!
The room was clean, but the bathtub didn't seem to be cleaned properly. And because there was no shower curtain, the bathtub was a sea of water. Also, the shower head and bathtub faucet switch was broken, so I had to shower while getting splashed. It seemed like it was already broken, which was a shame.
Aside from that, everything else was clean and nice. It was a perfect place to stay for one night. I would stay there again if it had a shower room. It was also reasonably priced. I didn't try the breakfast, so I'm not sure, but it was under 20,000 won, which seemed like a good deal.
The price is unbeatable, and the location as well. The Hotel seems to be in the middle of restoration works, and it is quite messy and dirty in the common areas and floors, bur if you need a place to sleep in the centre, that's just perfect.
The garage got full, so I had parked outside and asked the receptionist if I could leave the car there, which he confirmed, by taking my licence plate number. Then when I came back after 22.00 the car was gone. Luckily the next receptionist helped me to get a taxi and go to get the car back. The fine was very reasonable. And the next night the garage was full again, but this time I went to the public garage instead.
I needed to take a bus from Dongtan Station. The laundry room is only available to corporate customers, so I used the coin laundry across the street. It was winter, so moving there was very tough. I wanted to use the laundry room even if it meant paying extra.
Spent three nights here, overall good especially considering the price, just 10 min walk from the station, walking distance to all attractions
Self check in, no staff
Bed is nice, comfortable and clean, the bathroom is too but walls, bed's headboard and chair are incredibily dirty, clearly a mistake to get textured/cloth-covered walls and chairs because the stains are almost impossible to clean, the overall vibe of the room feels dirty even if it's clearly been cleaned (and floor, bed, bathroom are clean).
It's an old building, but I had a comfortable stay with my family. It was nice to be able to use the sauna right next to the building. It was nice to be able to get a sauna discount if you use the hotel. 🧡
WWe chose this hotel for a quiet, relaxing stay and were impressed by its location in an upscale neighbourhood surrounded by lovely cafes and restaurants. Transport was easy—with the GTX-A line nearby, you’re in Seoul before you know it. The hotel itself was clean and well maintained, with several great dining options on-site.
Unfortunately, the experience was affected by a significant issue. The air-conditioning didn’t work throughout our stay, and despite informing the front desk, we were advised to open the windows instead. With the low air quality, this quickly led to sinus congestion and hay fever for our family—definitely not ideal before a flight. On top of that, nearby construction made it hard to rest with the windows open, and our request for a room change was declined.
Had this issue been handled better, it would have been a perfect stay. The location and amenities are excellent, but customer service and maintenance need improvement.
Our stay was perfect. Our room was clean , the buffet was delicious and so many options to choose from. We chose this location as it was very close to a shuttle for Caribbean Bay and there were plenty of restaurants nearby. My son loved the kids playroom and the bunk bed in our room. We will definitely be coming back in the fall.
Super easy check in and check out process. Loved not being issued a physical door key and instead having access to the room via Kakao. No more fumbling to find your room key or have the chance of losing it. Having access to the room via your mobile phone was clutch.
The room was nice and clean. No frills, just everything you need in a basic standard room. The water pressure in the shower was very nice. The location was great for this trip being close to the train and subway station and the other places I intended to visit. Lots of food options in the area too!
Would definitely come back again and would also highly recommend to other travelers and visitors coming to the Godeok area.

Very Good
WWangxinWe stayed here for a business trip. It's very close to the Seoul outlets, which makes shopping super convenient. The only downside is that the dining options nearby aren't great. We arrived at the hotel around 9 PM, and the only place still open was the fried chicken restaurant run by the hotel on the first floor. Everyone there was Chinese, too.
GGuest UserI stayed at Homes Stay Suwon, and while it may be fine for solo travelers, it wasn’t the best fit for my stay. The room felt very small, and it was difficult to fully open a suitcase. The bathroom also lacked privacy, which made it uncomfortable for staying with more than one person. That said, there are plenty of restaurants nearby, which was convenient. Overall, it might be a better option for someone traveling alone.

AAnonymous UserIf you like „industrial chic“ style, this hotel is for you. Tall rooms, felt very airy. Stayed in 27th floor (top floor) and the view was quite nice.
Besides that; newish 4* hotel with all the perks you get in Korea (no amenities besides soap/conditioner by law), the bed was comfortable, nice small sofa/table, lot of storage space (really liked that), and a great no-frills shower (not a rainshower, just steady temperature and strong pressure)
The pool is also awesome, as it works both as an outdoor version (first day was 27C warm so it was fully open) and second day it was raining at 14C, and the pool was fully indoor. Really well designed, loved to swim in both conditions.
Transportation is convenient, for the cheap metro you have to check the timetables as it drives only about once an hour, but high speed trains are available too and bring you to downtown Seoul in about 15min for not that much more money. Metro is convenient if you go to other locations rather than Seoul city centre.
Direct airport limousine bus available too, for 16k Won. If you are 3 people or more, can be cheaper to hire a taxi/van.
Last but not least, there are a lot of restaurants just around the hotel, and the whole area is more lively than what you might think. From breakfast till 3am late night food/drinks, there is everything.
So overall, I really liked the place and will stay again here
CChewYSIt was very good impression as my 1st times visiting in Korea because the hotel staffs were incredible friendly and helpful. However this is very difficult to get taxi as industry area. Overall is good for me and the hotel is valueable to stay.
GGuest UserThe hotel is conveniently located close to the subway station and the airport shuttle stop, making transportation a breeze. There are many restaurants nearby, including a Chinese hotpot place, and convenience stores, all very handy. The room was spacious and comfortable, and besides a toothbrush, it had everything you could need, even skincare products, which were great. The breakfast was pretty good too. Overall, very nice.
LLizezezezeThe pickup and drop-off service at Beijing Capital Airport T2/T3 terminals is excellent and very thoughtful.

GGuest UserWe stayed at the residence side and I must say it is one of the best, if not the best hotel we’ve ever stayed in on all of our travels. Very spacious, clean and NEW!!!
All the staff members were very attentive, especially the manager for the WiFi support was courteous and responsive. I would highly recommend this hotel for quality, service and value for the money. Having the 24-hr CU (mini mart) in the 1st floor of the hotel was very convenient.
Special shout out to our housekeeping staff, who went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable.
Just few minor suggestions to the hotel management:
1. Don’t need a calendar, but do need clocks in the living room and the bedroom.
2. Need a trash can in the kitchen/dining table area.
3. Would be good to have a small dish rack, since guests are required to do the dishes
4. The sliding door from the master bedroom to the showers flaps around when closed if the heater or air is on. Needs to somehow stabilize it, it doesn’t make noise trying to sleep.
With just few minor improvements it would be a “perfect” place to stay!
