Hotels near Seoul Forest - Splash Fountain, Seoul

Got a room from the residence tower. The room was nice and spacious, and the bathroom was huge. Came with a kitchenette and washing machine in the room. Walking distance to dongdaemun night market, plenty of food choices nearby within 10mins walk. There’s a small convenience store around the corner. Towels smelt of bleach, but otherwise, they were always clean! The hotel was by a main road, and it was easy for cabs and a private drop off at the back of the hotel for a longer wait. The lady behind the counter at the cafe located on Level 1, she seems to be dreaming most of the time. Had to keep repeating myself for her to get the message. Room was 72x, she couldn’t find the number in the system despite asking us for it for 3 times. We had to write it down, and she still read it as 32x. 🙂↕️ had to correct her a couple of times that’s it’s SEVEN TWO x. Overall, great stay!

My husband and I booked this hotel on a day we checked in cause of the previous hotel we booked was horrible. Skypark hotel reviewed and confirmed my booking very quickly. The first thing I’ve noticed that it’s super clean. The room isn’t big, but enough for two adults with 2 suitcases. We had a lovely room keeper who cleaned the room every day. You can find everything you need in the room, except for a toothbrush. However, you can go to the check-in desk and buy one there. They sell other items too. Also, one of the biggest advantages of this hotel is its location. Close to two subway stations and a couple of bus stations. Around you can find multiple convenient stores, coffee places, restaurants and so on. We truly loved our stay. Thanks!

I recently stayed at this hotel and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The security measures, particularly the access control system, were well-managed and gave me a strong sense of safety throughout my stay. The staff were incredibly professional and courteous, always ready to assist with a smile. The room was spacious and thoughtfully designed, with excellent facilities that made my stay comfortable and convenient. Every detail, from the layout to the amenities, was clearly planned with guest satisfaction in mind. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-managed place to stay. I would definitely return in the future.

Location: First of all, it was located in front of the bar of Chungmuro Station, so the accessibility was very good! As soon as I got off the station, it was easy to find because it was right there, and it was easy to move to the subway. In addition, there are many food nearby, so I ordered it to be delivered in the evening. At night, I went out with my friends and played in my favorite bar. 🍻 Room interior, cleanliness: First of all, the room stayed in a room for three people, but it was wider than I thought, so three people went to sleep. It was enough, very neat and clean. There was also a table, so it was easy to eat, and it was okay to bring a laptop and see the work! The bathroom is clean and Netflix is available (you need to use your own ID). There is a washing machine, induction, and sink, so you can cook and wash! (I haven't used it, but,) it was just new and tidy because the bathroom was just built. Is it a little unusual that the sink is on the outside? It wasn't uncomfortable, but it wasn't as noisy as Hongdae or Sinchon. It was nice to be quiet at night, not like a noisy downtown area, but because of its good accessibility and location, it was convenient to use public transportation and places to eat or cafes around. It was nice to have a lot! I stayed with my friends, but I think it would be suitable if you are looking for a place to stay for long-distance business trips or business purposes.. !

The pictures of the room is quite true to other reviews and the hotel page itself. Quite comfortable and spacious. The only thing is the toilet is a bit dirty near the drainage. And maybe is the cold season near the end of autumn, start of winter period, the aircon would be on for a while and off for a while. Is a setting that can’t be changed. Maybe is to save electricity. There is guest laundry at lv 10, just abit on the expensive side. 1 time wash and dry cost 10,000 won in total. The service there is rlly friendly. Just take note no toothbrush provided. Have to donate to get a toothbrush. The location is great. The building next to the hotel has an olive young and opp olive young is a convenience store. Near the hotel also have a few malls. Just need to cross the road or go via underpass. It is close to myeongdong night market too.

Great service even though it’s a high season. Staff at front desk are very helpful and informative. The hotel room and the hotel is in great condition. The room is excellent and clean. Room cleaning service is at top level. The swimming pool is well cleaned also. Breakfast is served with a good variety of cuisine. The position of the hotel is excellently convenient. The airport bus stop is just opposite the hotel, subway station exits are within 1 min walking. It just takes 10-15 mins walk to Myeongdong shopping area. The deal is exactly as prompted. Got mini bar refilled everyday. Can see Korea tower from room😍. Thank you for the great deal. Definitely will choose VOCCO Myeongdong next time.

If taking subway you can head to exit 10 of jamsil station and you can go through the lotte world mall before street level, head straight, take the escalator next to the aquarium up, exit the main doors and cross the road to the left for the hotel. (It it not sheltered/ connected directly between the mall/ station and hotel). We took the side entrance lift up to the reception but if you go further down you’ll see the main car drop off and concierge. The staff service was really friendly, although at the check in reception we were given a list of rules and asked if we had any questions, so the hotel vibe felt quite formal and stiff. Was concerned about the rules on the swimming pool booking and bringing outside food in, but the staff around were kind and welcoming so we soon felt at ease. Was able to rent the required swim cap free of charge. Room was classy, spacious and bed and bath comfortable. We booked the lake view room but one can only see it at the side when nearer to the windows. We had indicated we were celebrating our wedding anniversary but there were no special greetings in the room or wishes at reception, which normally hotels would as part of their hospitality. The lake view from breakfast and the pool was beautiful! Heard it would be even more beautiful in spring! We enjoyed walking around the lake and exploring the restaurants on the other side. Great shopping location next to the lotte mall The swimming pool is small with one lane for laps and others for relaxing. There’s a heated jacuzzi outside and within the beautiful changing area was also has a hot bath and another neat amenities. The gym was huge and had so many machines! All in all a great and beautiful stay! Wish we stayed longer than one night! The only con is that you have the transfer lifts at the reception level each time you go out or in so you’ll just have to meet and greet a lot of people along the way.

The hotel is in a good location, easily accessible by three metro lines. In NAVER Map you should search Novotel hotel, there are general reception desk. There are buses and trains nearby. There is a bridge from the train station and the metro so you don't have to walk to the hotel in the dark. There was no toothbrush or toothpaste in the room, but that's okay. I especially want to mention the hotel staff! We had to go to Busan for the day after checking out, and the staff member agreed to hold our huge suitcase in the luggage storage room. Thank you!

Overall the stay was very good with few minor details that could use improvement. 1. The hotel common areas had a very strong perfume smell - but this seemed typical in Korea? Not my thing. 2. The light turns on automatically in front of the room door, so if you got up to use the bathroom at night, it would turn on. I didn’t like that. I like to get up as dark as possible at night. 3. When we bought wine to in the bar to bring to our room, it could only come in plastic cups. We are not teenagers, we are adults who can take care of a glass of wine without breaking it - felt it was patronising and no do not want to drink wine from a plastic cup. And we didn’t want to drink it in the bar because of the perfume smell. 4. We came to the breakfast at 6:30 since we were in a hurry to go to the airport - and the staff was so slow, it took 6 minutes to be seated even though the restaurant was almost empty. They couldn’t find our room number on a paper list that looked very unorganised. 5. Would prefer bigger towels at the pool

It's a bit of a walk from Hongdae Station, but with plenty of restaurants, cafes, and convenience stores along the way, the walk is enjoyable. The staff were very friendly, and everything was comfortable, though the room with two beds was a bit small. I had a great stay and would book here again if I visit Korea.
