    The room was spacious and had great facilities like a computer and jacuzzi. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the location was perfect with easy access to the metro and a wide variety of international restaurants, cafes, and stores.

    The housekeepers were not very thorough when it came to cleaning the room. They often forgot to change or remove certain items, like pills from previous clients or used cups.

    I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, with lots of daylight and a huge, comfortable bed. The bathroom was a highlight, with a cozy bathtub that was perfect for relaxing. The staff were friendly, helpful, and spoke good English. The location was superb, with the hotel being in a residential area and surrounded by local restaurants. Additionally, it was very close to Jamsilsaenae station and just a short walk away from COEX mall and all the main tourist spots. The breakfast provided was a mix of Korean and western options and was really delicious. The cleanliness of the hotel and the facilities provided were top-notch.

    The hotel is situated in a prime location, with easy access to all the attractions on the other side of the river. It is close to the Coex center and the Jamsil area, making it convenient for guests to explore these popular areas. The surrounding neighborhood is vibrant and lively, with numerous restaurants and shops. The rooms are well-appointed, with comfortable beds and modern amenities. The bathroom is clean and features a jacuzzi tub. The staff is friendly and offers excellent service.

    Some guests have mentioned that the carpet in the rooms should be replaced as it appears worn out and stained.

    As young holiday goers, we loved the convenient location of the hotel. It was just a short walk to the stadium and subway station, making it easy to explore the city. The hotel provided shower amenities and even offered additional items like toothbrushes and lotions upon request. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a comfortable bed and a range of TV channels to choose from. We also appreciated the option to upgrade to a deluxe double room, which had a spacious bathroom with a shower and spa bath. The staff were friendly and the hotel was spotlessly clean.

    Felt very well looked after, no complaints.

    This hotel offers exceptional value for money, with prices that won't break the bank. The attention to detail is evident throughout, from the well-maintained rooms with spacious bathrooms to the luxurious jacuzzi equipped with a TV - it's like having your own apartment. Additionally, the hotel's prime location near the subway line makes it incredibly convenient for exploring all the main tourist spots and the bustling town center in the Shinchum area, not to mention being close to the vibrant Jamsil where you'll find the Lotte World malls.

    All was perfect, no improvements needed.

    The staff at Pharos Hotel went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. They were extremely helpful and even went the extra mile to help us book a taxi for a private trip.

    I had a great experience staying at a hotel in the bustling Jamsil area. The location was ideal, being super close to Jamsilsaenae station and the baseball stadium. I was also pleased to find that the nearest metro had a direct line to the city center. The surrounding residential area had an abundance of local restaurants, giving me plenty of dining options. The room was spacious and the bathroom luxurious, with a jacuzzi tub and rainwater shower head. The staff provided excellent service, and the breakfast options were satisfying.

    The only downside was that I found the carpet in the room to be a bit dirty.

    We recently stayed at Pharos Hotel in Seoul and had a fantastic experience. The location was excellent, with two subway stations just a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to explore the city. The room was spacious and clean, with the highlight being the spa bath, which provided a truly relaxing experience. We also appreciated the variety of nearby restaurants and cafes, offering both local and international cuisine options. Despite a few minor issues like stains on the ceiling and the lack of toothbrushes provided, overall, our stay was enjoyable. We highly recommend this hotel for its great value and comfortable accommodations. I would recommend this hotel for your stay in Seoul.
