Brilliantly located hotel, with incredibly luxurious bedrooms. Hugely spacious for Seoul, and fabulously decorated. We took advantage of the boutique lounge happy hour with our room, and the wines and food were delicious. Breakfast was also a real treat. The staff were very kind and helpful with local recommendations. The Korean bbq place they suggested was one of our standout meals. Would highly recommended

The room was very spacious and the interior is very luxurious. The breakfast was nice and the 'happy hour' was very generous. However given he cost and star level of the hotel I would expect improved amenities. The towels were a little small and there was only one set of sockets by the bed to charge devices. Despite two TVs in the room there was no English speaking channels or access to apps. Compared to other hotels at this levels it was slightly lacking.

Decor was exactly as pictured, room was clean, staff was incredibly kind and helpful. Location was perfect, as it was close to subway stops and attractions, but just far enough away that it was quiet. I will absolutely stay here again the next time I visit Seoul!

We really enjoyed our stay at L’Escape Hotel. We upgraded our room to a suite which was spacious and well appointed. The club floor amenities included a buffet breakfast that had a wide array of options to select from. including both Asian and western inspired choices as well as made to order dishes. There was also a snack time offering and a happy hour which included premium beverages and a plentiful choice of food options. The staff in the club lounge were terrific, always with a smiling face and a warm welcome. The arranged transportation by the hotel to and from the airport was excellent. We look forward to returning on our next visit.

Gorgeous Hotel. Staff was excellent, and spoke great English. Is it overpriced? Yes. But that’s the idea of 5 star Hotels. Price out the broke folk who minimize the experience for others. I have no desire to go back to Seoul, as it is my opinion that it is the most superficial society on the planet, but if I did, the L’Escape is where I would stay.

Paris meets technology. “Hey, Genie” will open curtains, turn off lights and lots more. I could request extra water (free), towels, vanity kit, sewing kit and more. This hotel features lots of French decorations. Even elevator announcements were in Korean and French. This hotel offered super quiet nights ever. I love the location since it’s near Namdaemoon market 남대문, Myoung dong and unseating all within walking distance. Hotel maybe small but it offered and located in perfect place for my trip. Also staff are friendly and I can just push a bottom for make room. It can’t get any better than that. I would highly recommend anyone who wants to visit myoung dong to stay here.
