Amazing time. For me location of a hotel is key when discovering a city and a lot was perfectly located. I love walking to discover a new place and a Loft is right inn the middle. Also at night you have this amazing street food market and I went there often. The rooms are super comfy and clean. Gym was perfect for couple of days. Staff was super nice too

The staff clearly made the difference. I stayed twice at the same hotel in a week for over five days and they were amazing. Because I had a gao between both of my reservations - they accepted holding one of my luggage’s as I was away for a week. Superb thing to do. They were kind, nice, helpful. Definitely would get back to stay there.

The Aloft Hotel in Myeongdong was centrally located, had clean rooms, lovely service from the staff, and great complimentary products. The popcorn by the elevators was such a fun touch! We also really loved the breakfast, especially the pho bar and the fun croissant/waffles.

I suspected the room we had was supposed to be under service but assign to us. First thing, the door card gave us issue on our first day. And we have to go up and down thrice times before the front desk staff came up together to get the card rectify. (Annoying! And give us a ??? Face, of cause, because it’s not her problem) There are black stains on the towel suddenly, which was puzzling. Until the last night, mystery solved, it was from the carpet in the room. My daughter put her bag on the floor and the next day, there is a dark stain on her bag. Middle of the seat, water pipe leaking below the basin 😑. The lifts, too forever to come. You can just stay and wait for 4-5 mins for your lift to come. And it will just change as and when. Like you are waiting for Lift 1 then change to Lift 2 and back to Lift 1 again. Rather crazy. Front desk, seems like there is only 1 lady who can speak fluent English…! The only good thing is, the hotel location is conveniently near subway and myeongdong street.
