JW is 5 star because of excellent assistance and service from the Conceirge to bellboy! Oliver recommended and assisted us to book a nice dinner venue for my family at Seokparang. He even initiated to assist me in booking a cab. Mason helped us with the luggage. He even took initiative to ask us for our airport transfer car plate number so he can keep a lookout for us. He even initiated to ask us to sit inside the hotel lobby while he kept a lookout for us. As he understood we are rushing to catch the flight, he even helped us to translate to the cab uncle to hurry for us. All of them speak fluent English, are very warm hearted and takes initiative in offering excellent service with genuine smiles. Our hearts are deeply grateful to them. 5 star 🌟 because of them. 4 star for the rooms don’t have Netflix. It would be great if the family can gather over Netflix entertainment. Small issue though as the service more than cover up for everything! :) We were offered a nice river view which was romantic! Very clean hotel. Location is excellent as train station and direct bus airport limousine is just by the hotel. Great connectivity. Will definitely revisit this hotel again.

Stayed a few nights at the hotel with our family. The hotel is on top of Dongdaemun subway station, and along the stream. Staff were mostly good and friendly. Hotel is clean.

Loved the location at its best! The train strain with many exits/entrances are right at our doorstep. Right opposite our hotel is the historic Dongdaemun Gate. We had our daily breakfast overlooking the city view and nearby buildings. There were 3 pools, a normal swimming one, a kids pool and the other one was a bubble pool. We were told to wear swimming caps whenever we entered the pools. The staffs were quite friendly and full amenities were provided during our 1 week stay in this hotel. For business traveller, this hotel is also perfect as it comes with an ironing board, an iron etc. Daily condiments & beverages (Nespresso Machine) are included in the room. International breakfast is served at L2 from 6.30 to 10am sharp, the spread were great, didn’t expect to be quite a lot of dishes. We didn’t manage to eat all of them as there were too many choices and most of them were not to our likings. The staffs will come around each table to remind guests at 9.30am that the restaurant will be closed at 10am sharp. But the only drawback was we didn’t manage to get a high level room to stay, overall the experience is splendid and we had a wonderful time. Recommended to stay here provided you are willing to spend SGD450+/night, otherwise I highly suggest staying at any nearby hotels with the same great experience you’ll truly get as well.

Hotel is right smacked in the middle of Dongdaemun shopping street! The room and its furniture is dated. The air purifier and humidifier and baby rail were well appreciated. Swimming pool, beyond excellent. But don’t think it’s worth the price. For $300 a night, I’d say it’s quite pricey but its location is a win for me!
