HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

"As a first time traveller and travelling alone the staff at check in were super polite and helpful and explained everything clearly. They were also helpful throughout the stay if I had any questions e.g where the paid luggage storage was which was also super handy and really easy to use. Staff throughout the hotel particularly those who cleaned the rooms were very kind and the room was cleaned really well with two bottles of water provided daily. The GS25 also being at the hotel was really handy. Will 100% stay here again next time I visit Korea as also in an ideal location"
