Fairly close to Insadong and the main shopping streets on Myeongdong, as well as Gyeongbokgung Palace. Room service was just decent, but staff were very helpful and English-friendly. They even held our luggage for about a week when we were out of town! The hotel is close to a major subway station, which was really convenient.
