The bell boy helped us with our luggages once they see us pushing it to their hotel and its really a distance. ( as we exit the wrong underground pass).
Check in is smooth...just like a breeze...
And they will help us to take the luggages to the room.
The view is amazing...Now I understand why they want to put the bed in the middle...Once you draw your curtains, you can see the mountains, the blue house and even the palace guards changing shift.
However, its best not to draw back the curtains at night as there are too many Screens showing the advertisement....
Bed is so comfortable that you will not want to leave the room. Their housekeeping is very good too. Very observant.
We realized that if we purchased some drinks from outside....the housekeeper will give us additional bottle of water the next day.
Travel tip:
Go to Myendong and the subway via the underpass. The lift that goes to B1. Its so much nearer & convenient

It was very pleasant and the cleaning crew were most courteous.
Rooms were clean. The breakfast was too expensive and not worth for try.

Excellent ubication and staff were really helpful
Location (right from the number 6 exit from City Hall Station, Lines 1 and 2). The view from the rooms were also fantastic. Room's design, so warm and well equipped with all the technology you wold expect.

Our stay in this hotel for 5 days was just awesome. My friend wanted a hotel which could have a nice design and a great location.... I was thinking between The Plaza Hotel and the Lotte Hotel since both were in Myeng-dong area. I finally decided this one because of the design and how great reviews it had from Agoda.
Even though we booked 2 superior rooms, we had a free upgrade to deluxe rooms (the ones where you can see the skyline of Myeng-dong, the superior ones are just in the back and the views are not that nice).
The buffet and the dining restaurants in the hotel were rather great but in my opinion a little bit pricey. Breakfast buffet was around 30-35 euro per person and the restaurant a little bit more depending on which one you choose (there was a Chinese, Japanese and Italian restaurant).
Room was clean and staff were helpful in every single moment. It had automatic open and close curtains function, toilet bidet combo and nice light ambient. Almost every control could be done with the "remote phone controller".
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
Thanks to its location is rather easy to go to the Namdaemom Market and the different palaces nearby.

very convenient with (a) airport bus at the door, (b) underground connection to metro, myeongdong and lotte dept. store, (c) walking distance to namdaemun. in a location where is very comfortable and quiet. room is small but with the excellent design makes you feel leisure and comfortable.
Shopping Tip:
even raining outside you can still walk underground to Lotte Dept. Store where you can find all the food and cosmestics.

this is probably one of my favourite hotels in the world. well priced and comfortable. staff will attend to your every need! access to myeongdong shopping area via underground arcade, close to namdaemun market (5 minute walk). close to 2 subway lines. the only negative is that there are public events/demonstrations outside in the plaza area frequently. room was the cleanest i have ever seen and so beautiful (we booked the superior double suite). would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Surpassed expectations
Location, service, design
9.3
Very central and near subway so easy to get around to the usual tourist haunts - palaces, Bukchon village, Myeongdong, Itaewon, Namdaemun. Cab rides very affordable as well. Design and furnishings are the real deal - not simply good looking in pictures but cheap in reality. Room was a great size of the two of us. For the price on Agoda, it was good value for money. Well appointed too with Hermes shower set and fluffy towels/robes. Rainshower was a treat. Wifi fast and relibale. Staff spoke excellent English. Didnt explore the pool but that seems to be sited in another building.
Hotel Feature Tip:
The Plaza offers a complimentary shuttle bus three times a day to Gyeongbokgung, Itaewon and one more place I can't recall. Take the 10:30am (first) bus and get to Gyeonbokgung in time for the 11am English tour which was very well conducted.
