Best Western Kukdo

Small room but was ok. Nothing but bare minimum included. Breakfast buffer was not good compared to other hotels in Korea and Japan.No laundry service or coin operated. RestauranIvery limited hours and menu, it is not in a very convenient location so not sure how it has gotten great reviews. Location is on a street that is all light stores.

The Kukdo hotel is located in an area of Seoul, not filled with many stores but the shopping malls are nearby, metro access is within meters from the hotel and that is an advantage, as the Metro covers a lot of town. The hotel atmosphere is very calm and good for a good night rest, rooms are very comfortable and I would say big enough, as well as good to work as well. It is very clean, as many other things in Seoul, a fact I would not worry, no noise whatsoever, as I was staying on the 19th floor. Service is very kind and good, from the maid to the reception and the staff in the breakfast room. Breakfast is on the korean style, no cheeses was a point to mention but there is enough food and varied to start your day. Very good hotel and would like to return to it again.

Stayed here for 6 nights during our tour of South Korea with Gate 1. 5 nights at the start of the trip and one at the end. We arrived in Seoul at 4:30 a.m. and headed to the hotel knowing that we could not check in yet, but to drop our bags and just walk around till our room was ready. Ms. Kim, at the front desk was very instrumental in getting our room a bit early, 12 noon. Ms. Kim was also very helpful in helping me to secure tickets to a Korean Baseball game. She was very professional, polite and patient. Konsamnida Ms. Kim! The Pro’s of the Hotel Property: The Seoul Subway (Many Lines) and the LimoBus Transport from the Airport are right there. Great Breakfast Buffet, freshly made fried eggs and omelets are grab and go. They have both American and Korean Breakfast. Breakfast area was large and you could spred out somewhat. Fully Stocked convenience store is right downstairs. Rooms have good soap dispensers, PJ’s, robes and slippers. 2 bottles of water everyday. Nice comfortable Beds. Good towels. Quiet All Night. View was okay, but we could see the Seoul Tower. Great TV with tons of channels. A Curtain to separate the bathroom area from the bedroom area. Enough room in the room and bathroom to get around. And of course the great toilet that cleans you up when you are done. Held our luggage on the first day, before we got out room, and on our last day after we checked out, without any additional charges. Amazing Front Desk Customer Service! Cons: None that I could think of. Marvelous Stay! Highly Recommended!
