Ramada Seoul Hotel is located at a pretty good location where the subway station is near and the distance to major places are pretty close. However, it is noisy during the night as there are pubs downstairs even staying at level 7, we could hear the music loud and clear. Not much restaurants nearby. Need to walk a few streets down in order to get local food.

clean and modern, friendly and helpful staff, convenient location TV in the bedroom did not work,but second flat screen in the living room I had booked a superior room and was given a huge two-room suite on the 14th floor with view over the city. COEX shopping mall is in walking distance. Shuttle bus brings you directly to the airport. There used to be another hotel called Ramada Renaissance nearby (which is now only called Renaissance Hotel), make sure cap drivers etc. understand that you are talking about Ramada Seoul Hotel.

Convenient - as the airport shuttle bus stops at the hotel. The staff at the front desk was very helpful - I arrived in the early morning and the room was not available, but the front desk arranged for me to use the hotel sauna centre (for free). Buffet breakfast was OK, expensive but probably value for money. Access to the club lounge was useful and I was able to book and use a small conference room for free. I will use the Ramada again because of the convenience of the airport shuttle bus, the friendly and helpful service, and the fact, I located an interesting and novel, Korean-family fish restaurent 100 yards away - which I will frequent again..
Restaurant Tip : An excellent korean-family type fish restaurent taht is 5 min walk from the hotel (on the same side of the stree). One needs to sit on the floor on tatami but the food (no choice) is delicious and the rice wine, excellent. Very good value for money.

Everything is quite adequate inside my room. I got a good deal through Agoda with free internet and breakfast. The hotel bar should operate for a longer hour. We were there at 11:30pm and it was closed. I can't comment much about this hotel as I was only back to the hotel to sleep. This hotel is at the centre of Gangnam, and not that far from Walker Hill. There are a couple of convenience stores nearby. Overall, this hotel is located at a convenient site and have good value for money.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : The hotel is just minutes away from the new 7 Luck casino and COEX Convention Centre by car.

Staff is very kind and helpful. Location of hotel is very good. Connections with airport are excellent organized with shuttle.The room was less quality as I expected for Ramada chain. The breakfast was very good and fast.Finally I would recommend this hotel to others. Price was moderate. Hotel needs renovation and improvements. The wardrobe was too small for my clothes. Restaurant Tip : In the streets between hotel Ramada and COEX there are many very good national as well as international restaurants.

Close to business (where I needed to be). Good service for reasonable rate. Have been in Ramada before as it's within walking distance from office and much better rates than Intercontinental or COEX. Service good, breakfast buffet all I can wish for. Would not realy stay here for pleasure as there's not a lot to do around the hotel.For me the location is perfect.
Restaurant Tip : There are a few nice Korean BBQ restaurants close by. Good food reasonable price.

Shuttle Bus Service. Close to Coex Mall A little far away from the nearest train station Ramada the room itself was quite good. We had a small problem with the shower but it was rectified immediately. Room service prices were quite expensive even considering the location. Overall it was a good experience with friendly and courteous staff.
It was good to see that the staff could speak fluent English which was very beneficial to me as this can sometimes be a problem in a non english speaking country.
Shopping Tip : Be sure to check out COEX mall quite close to the Ramada hotel.

Good area (Gang Nam)
KAL Limousine stop right in front
Relatively close to a number of visits interests
Booking via internet (Agoda) is fast, reasonable price and secured-OK
In general, all of the staffs I met are helpful and sincere-Very good
Those in Exec room enjoy free internet and the connection is just great Can improve on food choices for breakfast
TV channels is too limited
Hope the internet free service is for all level of hotel rooms, not only for Exec and above, as nowadays almost all travellers are computer users and carriers, whether for business or for personal
Can improve by providing more choices of restaurant managed by the hotel, so some business meeting can be held in the hotel with choices of meal too
Perhaps to provide more meeting rooms for those business travellers that may need that When I browse through the net to find a suitable accomodation for my Seoul trip, I was looking at the area of near Seoul (north of Han river) or Gang Nam area (as this is a new prime area). Looking at the facts, there are actually several choices and they are comparable to each other. But I had a good experience by staying in Ramada Hotel in Guang Zhou a few years ago, and I decided why not staying in Ramada Seoul Hotel in Gang Nam, and since a number of our bussines suppliers offices are around Gang Nam and Seoul city area.
The decision for Ramada Seoul Gang Nam is just nice and booking via Agoda is a good decision too. My trip to Seoul is also considered a success. Thank you.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Nearby hotel, there is COEX complex where you can visit Seaworld, also an ancient Temple by walking distance from COEX complex.
I took half day afternoon trip and visit a few places such as the old palace, Insadong, Nam Dae Mun and the Amethys shop. It was just a good trip and not too much if you only have limited spare time.

*Centrally located in the Seoul Business District
*Close to all the amenities you might need during your stay including all levels of shopping and transportation
*10 minutes walking from the COEX Center
* convenience shop and Korean restaurant open 24 hours just across the street
* Very relaxing Spa located on the lower level of the hotel
* Free drinks and food available during Happy Hour on the Executive Floor situated in a comfortable and quiet environment
I had some trouble accessing wireless internet from the Executive lounge but this was resolved by the staff within a few minutes Ramada Seoul Hotel is located in the heart of the Seoul Business District. The airport bus stops right in front of the hotel so you don't need to worry about how to get to your hotel in reasonable comfort and speed. Only 10 minutes walking distance from the COEX Center / Mall and surrounded by plenty of restaurants, shopping and night life activities. The subway is also a few minutes from the hotel and is probably the best way to get around Seoul during rush hour traffic. For the budget conscious business traveller, if you spend a lot of time traveling on the road and need a comfortable but economical place to stay, Ramada Seoul Hotel is definitely a top choice. You are close enough to any amenities you might need. At the end of the day, spend an hour getting a relaxing massage in their fantastic Spa conveniently located on the lower level of the hotel. If you stay on the executive floor you can also enjoy Happy hour cocktails and a good selection of food all of which is on the house. Their staff are very efficient and the service is always done with a smile. Ramada Seoul is truly a five star experience without the great expense.
Hotel Feature Tip : For a relaxing time after a long day on your feet, visit the hotel Spa on the lower level. Truly a relaxing experience.

This hotel is very sound and well located for me. The rooms are large enough and cared for. it has a good breakfast and sound of the other restaurants I have not been used. Near the hotel is one of the largest shopping malls in Seoul where you find everything you may need. The iPods were very common price. about 3 quarters of the Irish airport
