    Location was favourable and absolutely perfect, in central Seoul near Gyungbok palace. Their breakfast was varied with soup, rice plus Asian items to choose from.

    The room was a little dated.

    I was really surprised by the spacious and well-equipped apartment at Somerset Palace. The large fridge-freezer, washer/dryer, and in-room safe made my stay convenient and comfortable. The beds were also comfortable, and the included breakfast was a great bonus. The location was ideal for exploring the nearby palaces and cultural sites on foot. I also enjoyed the free events happening in the area and the convenience of having restaurants and a convenience store in the same building. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

    The apartment was very spacious, breakfast was excellent. Location for sight-seeing and restaurants was excellent. Access from airport using limousine bus was easy

    Cafes and restaurants in hotel very expensive. After booking, an email request for directions to the hotel was not responded to, however the airport information desk was very helpful.

    English speaking staff who are professional and helpful. Nice rooms with a view to one of the main palaces in Seoul.

    Breakfast @ $15++ was expensive considering the limited choices available. The cafe just outside Little Jacob's has coffee/toast for under $4.
