HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent
"Best hotel of my trip! The room was spacious and clean. There’s an oven/microwave, kettle, and fridge. The bed was pretty good and the shower and toilet were clean. Luggage storage is paid, but ultimately it’s not that expensive if limited to less than 24 hours. Food delivery to the hotel is easy as there is a food delivery counter for the food to be delivered and for pickup. There are two convenience stores in the vicinity and one is 24 hours. "
