Impressed is an understatement
I would be close to saying that this has been one of my favourite hotels I have stayed at around the world. The attentiveness of staff, service, quality could not have been better. I’m not easily impressed and I’ve had nothing but good things to say.

Very happy stay in Seoul
I have been lucky to be able to have stayed in many 5 starts places, for example The Peninsula Tokyo, and I have to say that the service at the JW Marriott Dongdaemun Seoul has one of the best service I have ever received, the crew went far and beyond to make me feel happy and welcome, from Kate at the front desk, to Miss Moon and Ian at the bar and the crew at Tavolo 24, smiles and great great service. The Spa experience was very nice also. The room decoration is a little bit outdated, but still a very pleasant bedroom, with all amenities even a hair flat iron. Most of the rooms have a view of Heunginjimun Gate as well as the restaurant and rooftop bar. You have cheonggyecheon stream right there, if you like walking like me, you can walk from to In-sadong , Myeongdong, gyeongbokgung palace, following the stream, beautiful walk in the middle of Seoul. If you don’t like walking, the metro line 4, is also right there in the corner and takes you also to Eujiro, Myeongdong, straight to Ichon (Korea National Museum) and basically everywhere you want to go. Shopping is good too, Doota and Hyundai malls are 5 min walk and also DDP Design Plaza is right there 5 min walk, the hotel is great value for money. I definitely recommend this hotel.

Good for business and/or pleasure
We had a mixed situation where wife had to tend to some family business while, at the same time we both had to continue working (in US time). We both had to be on the phone or Virtual meetings during night time in Korea. The only thing we had to adapt was to move to a larger room (suite) where we could each talk without disturbing the other. The hotel had no problem accommodating that. Accommodations are great, and, if you have access to the lounge, you have your breakfast and dinner. Subway stations are steps away, so you can be anywhere anytime. Great staff!
