    Appreciated to stay there, the place is pleasant and very good. An electric kettle, fridges, and kitchenware were provided. Staff was wonderful and absolutely amazing despite our late arrival.

    Clean property close enough to Insadong, the best neighborhoods, stores. The amicable and accommodating staff accommodated my early check in. All in all it was a really great stay with 3 nights here in an one bedroom apartment.

    I was pleasantly 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.

    I had a comfortable stay at Somerset Palace in Seoul. The rooms were clean and spacious, with all the amenities I needed. The location was convenient, with easy access to popular attractions and good rail connections. The apartment had all the necessary facilities, including a gym and children's playroom. The staff, from the front desk to the breakfast staff and housekeeping, were professional and friendly. The hotel was well-maintained and had a lovely garden. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

    I had great stay for a short visit!

    The apartment was awesome and clean with views over their garden and Buddhist temple at lantern festival. The staff was so affable and excellent. The location was marvellous, I easily reached a Korean restaurant. Truly enjoyed that it was also just next door to both business district and tourist district, metro station, convenience store and restaurant nearby and major tourist attractions as well as major government and private offices.
