Excellent hotel and strategic location
First and foremost Somerset Palace Seoul is travelers who need a full sized fridge for take out, leftovers, or who want to cook instead of eating out everyday. They clean your room six days a week and the front desk staff are attentive to guests. The rooms are clean and most of all why you should stay there is the accessibility to 3 train stations and excellent coffee shops and restaurants. I will stay there again on the next trip to Seoul.
