The hotel is conveniently located near Wangsimni Station, just a 3-minute walk from exits 1 or 2. If you have luggage, using the escalator at exit 3 or the elevator near exit 6 (both within a 10-minute walk) makes it much easier to get to.
The room had a circular bed, not the rectangular one shown in the pictures. It was quite large, easily big enough for two people. I barely noticed the typical Korean bathroom smell, though the shower drain was a bit clogged, which was a minor issue. The hairdryer was in a drawer; it was a little noisy but powerful enough to dry my hair effectively!
At night, the heating was on constantly, making the room quite dry. I found that turning off the bathroom fan helped make it more comfortable. Behind the front desk, there was a lounge area with a coffee machine, a hot water dispenser for cup noodles, a microwave, and more, all available for guests to use freely. This was also the only place where free Wi-Fi was available.
Room cleaning can be requested at the front desk when you head out in the morning. If you leave used bath towels and trash outside your door, they will be collected. You can also get fresh bath towels from the front desk if you ask. I'd read some reviews mentioning mold, but upon closer inspection, it was minimal, so if you're sensitive, you might want to bring your own. They provided enough room wear for everyone.
There were several bottled waters in the fridge, and you could freely grab more from a dispenser near the front desk, which was a great perk. All the staff were incredibly kind and wonderful. I'd definitely like to stay here again! Thank you!
I love this place !!! I really meant it.Its easy to find and everything in the room completely perfect & perfectionist!

I stayed there for four consecutive nights because it is very close to BGSS, which is the place for my vision correction laser. The overall experience was beyond expectation, and the cost was also reasonable.
Take Incheon Airport Bus No. 6013 and get off at the hotel main entrance (Hyundai Hometown). Alternatively, take Bus No. 2233 from Exit 3 of Janghanpyeong Station and get off at the Sherbill Apartment stop. The hotel is a 2-minute walk from the stop. The hotel is a 20-minute walk from Janghanpyeong Station.

Location: Incheon Airport Bus 6013 drops you off just 100m from the hotel. The fare is 17,000 KRW per person, and the seats are large and comfortable. The one-way trip takes 1.5 hours, and it operates from around 4 AM until early morning.
Subway: The closest subway station is Janghanpyeong on Line 5, which is 1.4km from the hotel. It's a bit of a walk, which is fine if you're traveling with friends, but if you're alone and in a hurry, it might feel a bit far. However, there's a bus that takes you there in one stop.
Surroundings: There are plenty of restaurants and convenience stores. The restaurants are the kind that local Koreans frequent, and many are open 24 hours. I tried the pork bone soup (gamjatang) and it was delicious and affordable, with single-serving portions available. The other restaurants looked good too. It seems like the ganjang gejang (soy-marinated crab) downstairs and the spicy stir-fried chicken feet (dakbal) next door are locally famous.
Check-in: The shower had excellent hot water. The room facilities were very basic, and the room itself looked a bit dark. The curtains provided good blackout, and it wasn't noisy outside. You'll need to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste; while slippers are provided, they're not disposable, so it's better to bring your own. The air conditioning provided plenty of warm air and heat, plus there was an electric blanket, so you won't be cold in winter. The AC made some noise, which I could tolerate, but sensitive individuals might want to bring earplugs. There's a free water dispenser downstairs with both hot and cold water. Housekeeping is not provided during your stay unless requested.
Overall, I'm very satisfied; it offers great value for money. The airport bus is especially convenient. Although there's a subway from the airport, the Korean subway is expensive and has many stairs, which is a hassle with luggage! I noticed flight attendants staying nearby, also using this airport bus for their commute.

The location is great, very convenient, and close to both Exit 7 and Exit 6 of Dongdaemun Subway Station. Exit 6 has a direct elevator, which is a plus if you have a lot of luggage. The service is also excellent; the front desk staff helped me with my bags and were always polite, bowing and greeting me whenever I left. Their attitude is really nice! This place is perfect for solo travelers, and the value for money is outstanding. The only downside is that it's not very soundproof, but the hotel does provide earplugs for sleeping!

Here's a recap of my stay at the Seoul Riviera Hotel.
The address is 737 Yeongdong-daero, Gangnam-gu, Seoul. Even though I booked two months in advance, I ended up booking during a price surge. I paid 4330 KRW for 4 nights, which was basically over 1000 KRW per night. Usually, it's around 500-600 KRW. This time, there were a lot of people in Seoul for concerts, which drove hotel prices up three or four times. The hotel I stayed at last time in Seoul also had its prices hiked by several hundred.
Since there were three of us, I booked a standard room for three, with one double bed and one single bed. The room was relatively small, but it was quite clean, and the hotel staff were all very nice. We stayed for 4 consecutive nights, and it was very quiet, so the overall experience was good.
Here's the transportation information:
The airport bus 6006 goes directly to the hotel. You get off at the Riviera Hotel stop, which is right in front of the hotel entrance. You can enter the hotel directly, no need to walk even a minute, which is excellent.
How to take the airport bus to Incheon Airport? The hotel front desk had two diagrams: one for the airport bus timetable directly to Incheon Airport, and another showing where to catch the bus. From the main hotel entrance, turn right and walk straight to the first crosswalk. Cross the street, and you'll see a Starbucks. The bus stop is right in front of Starbucks, about a 5-minute walk. The entire journey takes less than 2 hours.
The nearest subway station is Cheongdam Station, about a 7-minute walk.
Because the hotel is in Gangnam-gu, close to Apgujeong, we walked to Apgujeong. It took about 20-30 minutes, strolling and looking around. We took a public bus to Hannam-dong, which was also very convenient.
The hotel also seemed to have a hot spring, but we didn't have time to go. There's also a particularly delicious 24-hour Korean restaurant near the hotel.
With a stay at Toyoko Inn Seoul Dongdaemun No.2 in Seoul (Jung-gu), you'll be a 5-minute walk from Dongdaemun Design Plaza and 5 minutes by foot from Dongdaemun History and Culture Park. This hotel is 0.6 mi (0.9 km) from Dongdaemun Market Mall and 0.7 mi (1.2 km) from Gwangjang Market.
Make use of convenient amenities, which include complimentary wireless internet access and a vending machine.
A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily from 7:00 AM to 9:30 AM.
Featured amenities include a 24-hour front desk, luggage storage, and laundry facilities.

The room was on a high floor. Due to limited availability, I had to book two different room types for my two-night stay. The actual room size was the same, but the price difference was quite significant. Plus, for the extended stay, I had to go through the whole check-in process again, which was a bit of a hassle. On the bright side, the location is excellent, right by the subway station, which is very convenient. The breakfast was also pretty good.

The hotel's location is great, not far from Sinsa Station and surrounded by many restaurants. The room wasn't small, and the bathroom was huge with a bathtub, so you could shower or soak. The water pressure was also excellent. I was surprised they even provided toothbrushes, as most hotels in Korea no longer do. They also stocked hair gel, toner, and other amenities, which was a really nice touch. They were very generous with the bottled water, providing 4 bottles daily. The only issue was right after checking in, maybe because they registered a male guest, I received many strange phone calls. My female companion answered a few times, and they eventually stopped. Later, I realized there might be a spa downstairs that offers other services.

Lobby had a few refreshments and free flow of water, which is really good. Self service.
Toilet is ginormous, equipped for geriatric tourists? Why would I need a back rest and a commode if I’m travelling? Best part was there was no place to hang a hand towel and hand soap was not provided.
Cleanliness is not there. Room was not cleaned for all 3 days of stay. On first entry of the room, had hair on the phone, on my pillow and UNDER the blanket. 1 long strand each. Room (on 2nd floor) had a musty smell which lingered.
Pillow was either very hard or very soft, nothing in between.
Location wise, was okay if u bought a climate card, 4 bus stops and 2min walk from the mrt. Have convenience stores nearby, but location is not near to Seoul city centre or anywhere else apart from Achasan.
Oh, nowhere did it mention that aircon for the ROOM is “spoilt” or under servicing. Trip.com chat from the hotel only wrote in the sea of paragraphs that there is no aircon in the hotel (which feels like a fine print and hope u don’t read it kind of thing and i assumed it was the hotel lobby or something).. it was so hot without aircon in the day, and too cold in the night. I raised it up with the hotel staff and they said they’re doing gas works until 1 may, then he said 1 April. Then I complained to trip.com and asked if I could move to another hotel as it was quite uncomfortable, but trip says they need a few hours to see if the cancellation is even possible. When I got back to my room in the evening, miraculously the gas works has been done for my room and the aircon was working again.

Very Good
GGuest UserThe facility is still being renovated, and it is a bit inconvenient to travel by car due to the width and slope of the surrounding roads, but the interior of the accommodation is comfortable and clean thanks to the owner's diligence in managing it, so it was worth the trouble I had searching for^^
RRyosukeIt was a series of surprises during my stay. When I arrived at the inn, the entrance was locked. I couldn't get inside because my PIN was not contacted. I contacted Trip.com support and asked them to give me my PIN for about 30 minutes. When I went inside, there was a paper with my PIN on the unmanned counter. Accommodation requires clairvoyance.
When I entered the room, there was no curtain on the window this time. Thanks to that, neon lights came in when I went to bed, and in the morning the room became bright from early morning and I could wake up without an alarm clock.
