Hotels in Gangnam Apgujeong/Cheongdam-Dong, Seoul

Although the hotel is located in Cheongdam-dong, the surrounding commercial area isn't very developed. There's only a GS25 nearby for food and drinks. The transportation is fairly convenient, with a bus stop a few hundred meters to the right when you exit, which can take you to most places. However, the subway is quite far, requiring another bus ride. It's indeed an older hotel, and the room maintenance is pretty subpar. The double room we booked was extremely cramped; with two suitcases open, there was barely any room to walk. The bathroom had no exhaust fan, and there was mold on the ceiling and bathmat. The air conditioner vent was built into a fake bay window under the actual window. On our first night, we couldn't find the light switch and accidentally opened the bay window cabinet, which was full of dust. The service was also very average. On our second night, we couldn't get into our room with the key card and had to go down to the front desk, and they offered no explanation. Early check-in requires an extra fee, and on the morning of check-out, the concierge said that next time, one person can only store one item (we stored one suitcase and one backpack) 😅😅 No worries, there won't be a next time.

I regularly get facials at Xiaohan, and it's near Sinsa, so I chose this Voco hotel which is a 5-minute walk from Sinsa Station. As a chain hotel, the facilities, luggage storage, and cleanliness are all excellent, and the location is fantastic. There's a 24-hour convenience store right behind the hotel, and across the street is a three-story Olive Young, plus a whole food street with Korean BBQ, fried chicken, desserts, and everything you could want. It's also not far to walk to Apgujeong and Gangnam. The only minor drawback is that the room is long and narrow; if you bring a large suitcase (26 inches or more), once you open it, there's no room to move around. Overall, it's still good value for money.

The amenities were all there and it was very comfortable! The location was also convenient, being close to the station! The reception staff were very kind, and I had a great stay!

This hotel was a truly delightful surprise! Located in such a prime Gangnam spot, this designer hotel immediately impressed with its fresh and modern ambiance upon entry. The concierge was kind and friendly, and even spoke Chinese, which made getting around incredibly easy. The room was clean and tidy, offering exceptional value for money. You're surrounded by great shopping districts like Apgujeong, Sinsa-dong, and Cheongdam-dong, and it's just a short walk to Olive Young. There are also plenty of aesthetic clinics and great food options nearby. Despite all this, the streets are surprisingly quiet at night with very little traffic or footfall. All in all, it was a very comfortable and satisfying stay. I'll definitely be staying here again next time I visit Korea.

Tiny little hotel room but it was clean and had everything we needed. The hotel pyjamas were an unexpected amenity and cute. Breakfast at the rooftop bar was especially tasty, with a supply of blankets, and beautiful views that made it one of our highlights. The lobby scales to weigh our luggage also helped alot with packing for our flights. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and looked after our bags while we explored after checkout.

An absolutely wonderful stay! The room was spotless, and the decor was really fresh and thoughtfully designed. The facilities were excellent, and the staff even recommended some great local restaurants (the samgyetang they suggested was delicious, thank you!). The location is fantastic – surrounded by trendy brands like Ralph Lauren, MLB, Supreme, and Stussy, plus tons of coffee shops and dessert places. It's perfect for anyone who loves to city walk. I'll definitely recommend it to friends and hope to stay here again next time! 💗

The hotel's location is convenient. You can take airport bus 6006 and get off at Apgujeong Rodeo. There's also a subway station nearby. The area around the hotel is lively with lots of shops. The hotel itself is a bit old, and the facilities are showing their age.

The guy at the front desk who checked me in was really nice. When I was checking out, I ran into a cleaning lady in the elevator, and she was so kind, she even helped me carry my luggage. This is the first time I've stayed at a hotel in Korea that allowed a 12 PM checkout, I'm practically in tears of joy! T_T I stayed in a single room, and the space was more than enough for one person. The TV could play regular channels, and also had YouTube and Netflix. Disposable slippers were provided. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

I really enjoyed my stay here and would happily stay again. The room was spacious, especially considering the price and location, and it had all the essentials I needed. The convenience store right next to the hotel (accessible through the side entrance). The hotel is also just a 3–5 minute walk from the Incheon Airport Bus (6006) stop, making transportation very convenient. Early check-in was available for an additional fee, which was helpful after an early arrival. Its location near the Han River and Banpo Bridge is great for a morning jog or evening walk. Overall, a comfortable and convenient stay in Seoul.

The hotel surroundings are nice, and the front desk staff speak basic English. On the first day, I found a midge on the curtains, but otherwise, the cleanliness was acceptable, and there was no drain smell from the bathroom. Disposable slippers were provided, but no toothbrush or toothpaste. Everything in the minibar, except for water, was chargeable. I booked a hotel in Gangnam because I was attending a concert at KSPO Dome. Pros: After the concert, it was usually easy to find a seat on the Express Line 9, and I could quickly reach Bongeunsa Station. There aren't many restaurants on the way back to the hotel, but there are several convenience stores. Cons: The walk from Bongeunsa Station to the hotel is really, really far, and you have to climb a gentle slope before descending! Cheongdam Station is about half the distance, but coming from Olympic Park, you'd need to transfer from Line 5 to Line 7, and Line 5 is usually much more crowded after events. Additionally, I had extended my stay through Trip.com before check-in, but the front desk initially thought I had only booked one night. After some communication, they found the extension order and processed it. However, on the second night, my room card stopped working and needed to be re-authorized. I hope the platform and the hotel can improve this issue.
