Royal Hotel Seoul
Great spacious, quiet room with lounge access which includes tea, coffee, snacks. The Grand restaurant was also excellent where I had 2 lunches & 1 breakfast. It is a convenient location to shopping & street food, which looked good but I did nit try since I don't like eating standing up. Will stay ...
