    The lobby is not very pretty. The airport bus leavea from the hotel but does a loop whicu means you get back to the hotel after 20 min before you really depart to airport.

    What you expect from a good hotel, clean spacious rooms. Airport bus leaves from hotel.

    The room looked outdated, one of the pillowcases had large holes in it. I have asked to change them and they gave us the clean ones so we could change it by ourselves. There was a distinct smell of cigarettes smoke coming from the bathroom, and because of this we needed to keep the bathroom door always closed, otherwise the smell was coming to the room. The hotel personal did not react to this, just gave us a coffee coupon.

    Central location, close to the subway and attractions.

    ✖️no early check in ✖️provide only 1 key card ✖️electric socket is not enough for 2 person you need the socket extension

    ✔️airport bus stop is in front of the hotel and it’s the first stop 1.40hrs to ICN terminal 1 ✔️overall facilities needed is provided ✔️walking distance to DDP and Apm building ✔️there’re convenience stores, subway, bus stop located not too far but if after long walk all day would be tiresome

    Very great location. Close to Dongdaemun plaza and easy acces to subway which deserve major attraction. Employee were very nice and helpful. A big plus is the self service laundry room (washing machine and dryer) very useful and its quite cheap.

    The fact that I had to pay extra money to check-in earlier, stayed at a lot of hotels and this was something new for us, after 30hrs of flying I would think the staff would be understandable.

    Very easy to get to the Hotel, best option is the limousine bus which drives you to/from ICN. Rooms were okay, location pretty central and close to the subway.

    I was a little disappointed in the breakfast buffet as it has limited choices for $20 per person, but if thats the only complaint I can make then I'd say its a pretty satisfying hotel experience.

    Summit Hotel is in a great location - lots of shops and restaurants around, and a short walk to the subway (3 mins). I stayed in 5 hotels while in Korea and this was definitely one of the better ones. Comfortable beds, friendly staff, clean rooms and good service. Easy to get late checkout too for a little extra money. Bus to the airport is right out the front door too.

    affordable, decent, well located hotel. It was good value for the money.

    • Corner Double Room with Bath

    There was no plug or usb charger next to the bed to have my phone next to me at night charging. My "corner" room had only a tiny window (I guess the front desk´s telling me I had a corner room raised my expectations a bit too much), and the location next to elevator gave me some extra cleaning-staff noise on Saturday morning when I slept in. The airconditioner turned off in the middle of the night and I woke up hot. I fiddled with the controls but it seems it was something else. It turned back on by itself shortly after.

    Great location for my event, and near subways. Nice restaurant row a 10 minute´s walk. Basically everything worked.

    The minor drawback was the lack of a socket outlet near the bedside table, which inconvenienced charging devices and the pillows are too soft. Overall, it was a pleasant stay with great accessibility.

    We recently had a 4 nights stay and it was conveniently located between two metro stations, Dingguk Univ and Dongdaemun History and culture park. The accessibility to public transportation made exploring the city a breeze. The hotel itself was comfortable and well-maintained.
