The staff were very nice. The cleaning staff, in particular, spoke excellent English and were extremely helpful throughout our four day stay. However, the bathroom consistently smelled like smoke, and the room was quite dusty. An air purifier would have been very helpful. The TV was not connected to the internet, so casting did not work.

Service was amazing from the second we arrived, and the location is amazing. Right at a ...

On a positive note, the location is unbeatable; it's clo...

I should've checked before booking but .. Apparently, the hotel does not have air conditioning?? It set to warm - at a set temperature of 24.5 degrees. We were offered two options; to open the window or be given a fan. We opted for fan. We still opened the window a little but mind you, we were on the 24th floor so this is a major fall hazard and a lil' scary. I don't know how this actually is al...

Would highly recommend the Shilla Stay if you are visiting Seoul. A...
