Wonderful

It was an unpleasant experience. I was given a key card by a female staff member with a different room number than what I had signed for on the check-in form. When I inquired about the discrepancy, a male staff member, LEE KI HO, suddenly appeared behind her, began yelling at me, and falsely accused me of insulting her. He caused a scene for no valid reason.
This behavior is completely unacceptable and highly inappropriate. Both staff members should be dismissed for their unprofessional conduct and possible attempts to cover up their shady practices.
Metro stop was about a 10-15 minute walk from hotel. Night market was right down the street. Staff were friendly. Only complaint was that the room was small.
A lovely hotel in the heart of Myeongdong surrounded by street food markets and all the shops you would want. Next to the cathedral and great transport links. Room was cleaned everyday and staff were always so nice and accommodating. I was a single female travelling and enjoyed the safety features such as needing a key to use the elevator.
We truly enjoyed our experience. The staff was very cordial and accommodating.

It’s actually a typical 5 star hotel. They know they offer so much amenities. The convenience to go to Myeondong street is right down the hotel.
However, I think the staff can do more by being more engaging to clients. Asking how their day, asking if they need assistance; etc.
I think the language barrier may be an issue however they were courteous enough to smile but not easily approachable as they have serious attitude.
But will smile when approached by clients. I guess in other countries I have been. It’s the staff who approach and much more open to offer assistance due to their body language.
Other than than- location is a perk for this hotel.
This was my second time stayed in Royal Hotel Seoul. As the first time, room is neat and tidy. Location is excellent, right next to the shopping street. Highly recommand.
I stayed here quite a few times alr. This time I recommend it to my family and we booked 5 rooms, however we took almost 3 hours to check-in, as the staff was unsure of the details and are not able to see our booking on their side. We could only have 2 bottled water a day as said by the front desk. Another thing is the staff was not very good at English, therefore we struggle when communicating. One of the staff/managers even showed attitude as we were at the front desk for long (But it was due to their side, where they cannot see our booking), the only way we solved is to call Expedia to tell the hotel about our booking, and they could find it after. Staff attitude was not very good only when we met with issues during check-in. Hope they can handle such problems better in the future with the right attitude
