Great location. Spacious room. The air condition kept going off and the room would get super hot before it would kick back on, but otherwise it was great!
Great location in Hongdae, close to a lot of great restaurants, shopping and coffee shops. Room was very clean and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would stay again in the future.

Just so so hotel. Staff were very nice and friendly but hotel atmosphere is like street market.
The hotel location is really good, no matter shopping or public transportation. Also, hotel staff was friendly, and the room was clean. I would like to say tourists should be satisfied by the hotel.
Our stay at the Mercure Ambassador in Hongdae was absolutely wonderful!! The room was clean and comfortable, the staff were super helpful and friendly, and the location was perfect for conveninient subway and bus access. It took a little bit to familiarize ourselves with how to adjust the air conditioning to our preferences, but other than that everything was super easy to figure out and use. Would definitely stay there again, and we will for sure recommend this hotel to others looking for a place to stay on their visit to the country! ★★★★★
Solid stay here. Everything as expected. The room is clean. I would’ve liked to have air-conditioning, but apparently it was May and they don’t turn it on.
