Chiao T. H. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

I’ve always thought Accor hotels keep a pretty solid standard, so I specifically booked this one for our family trip. But once we got there, it was honestly quite a letdown compared to what we expected. 1. The pool was under maintenance and the gym was closed at certain times, so we had to head over to the Mercure instead. Nobody mentioned any of this when I made the reservation until check-in. 2. Because of the typhoon we ended up needing to stay two extra nights. It was the weekend and some floors were being renovated, so the hotel was pretty much full. Luckily Mr. John Oh at the front desk managed to squeeze out two rooms for us — really appreciate that. 3. The problem was we stayed on the 8th floor in room 856 and 857 those two days. The TV, toilet and phone all didn’t work properly, and the water pressure on the 8th floor was quite weak too. The bathroom on the 9th floor was super slippery and there were no handrails. Every time we showered we felt a bit nervous. I get that the hotel is slowly fixing and upgrading things, and the staff did help pretty quickly whenever we reported a problem. 4. The Concierge service, especially from the Korean staff, kind of ruined the vibe for us. When we asked if they could help call a taxi to the airport, a Korean staff member said the hotel’s car booking fee is really expensive and suggested we just book one ourselves through Kakao. But the way he replied felt more like he was just brushing us off. Not sure if it’s because we’re also Asian or if that’s just how the hotel does things. I’ve stayed at Novotels in different countries and this is the first time I’ve been told to arrange my own ride. 5. One of the things we were most looking forward to in Korea was ordering food delivery. At Grand Hyatt Jeju and even at a non-chain hotel in Busan, the staff happily helped us order delivery. But here they said they don’t offer that service and that delivery can’t even reach the hotel. That was honestly really disappointing. 6. A few times when we asked the Concierge for help, we weren’t sure if it was a language issue or some kind of attitude problem toward Asian guests — the way the Korean staff treated us left us feeling pretty put off. I was originally planning to stay at Novotel Seoul Dongdaemun next time, but after this experience I might change my mind.

This is the best hotel I've ever stayed in recent year. The room is spacious, well designed, you will have everything you need, not to mention it's very clean. You can also tell that the cleaning staff does pay attention to details. The breakfast is amazing, you can have different combination for consecutive three days, ranging from Japanese, Korean, Vietnam, to American style. The location is very good, connected to train and subway station. Although the route from station to hotel is a bit confusing at first, especially with big suitcase (There's a connecting aisle from station to the hotel. Once you reach to the end of the aisle, take the lift or escalator to the ground floor first, then walk to the lobby. This is the easiest. The connecting aisle is somehow at 2.5 floor while the hotel lift is only at 2nd floor, you will need to take stairs between 2.5 and 2. After you get rid of the big suitcase, it's totally fine to take the stairs). The hotel is a big complex including three brands of Accor are located. Within the building, you will find several options for dinning, convenient store, money exchange, even casino. Will definitely come back if I ever travel to Seoul again.

Dear Guest, Warm greetings from Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Thank you for sharing such wonderful feedback about your stay with us.

We stayed 4 nights from 9/26 to 9/30 first and 2 nights from 10/5 to 10/7. The hotel itself was very nice and all the employees we dealt with were good people. First 4 days (9/26 to 9/30) we had a very high tub instead of the regular shower, without any grab bars or shower mat. That was a nightmare for us (age 82 and 80). On 9/27 my wfe fell very, very hard as she exited the tub. She was badly hurt. You were made aware of this fall the next day as well as our tour director lady (Kathy) with Gate 1. No other member of our group had a shower in their room.

Dear Guest, Warm greetings from Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. While we appreciate your kind comments about our team and the hotel’s location, we are deeply concerned to learn that your wife suffered a serious fall while exiting the bathtub during your stay. We sincerely regret that this happened and are very sorry for the injuries she sustained and the distress this incident caused both of you. We understand that this must have been a frightening and difficult experience, particularly given the circumstances you described. We also acknowledge your concerns regarding the bathtub’s height and the absence of additional safety features, such as grab bars and a non-slip mat. We take feedback concerning guest safety very seriously, and your account of this incident, including the concerns you raised about the bathroom setup, warrants careful attention from our management team. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely regret the impact this incident had on your stay and appreciate the opportunity to better understand your concerns.

I am a gold All Accor member, it’s the first time I felt like I wasn’t welcomed.. I missed one night because of the flooding situation in Bangkok, no empathy was shown for me to be able to cancel the night. I had to pay for it at my arrival, the staff was unfriendly. Once the cleaning lady didn’t provide us the complimentary bottles of water. Overall not at all a Novotel experience. And I’ve been to many Novotel around the world.

We loved the location, house keeping, and staff but reception requires more training in incorporating the All Accor members. We booked thru the Accor app and after we booked and paid, we kept getting emails asking us to cancel our booking as it doesn’t meet their membership criteria. We went to reception and had it sorted and paid extra and we were contacted again the next day. I think it’s poor service that after we booked thru All Accor app, we had to pay more and kept getting hassled daily to cancel or modify our booking. It’s made our holiday rather stressful. Also we were offered upgrade to junior suite with sofa bed upon check in to Novotel suites, then next minute, we were told it’s not available as the manager saw that we were Accor members and were paying Accor members price. We have stayed at many other Accor properties thru Accor app and we have never had this kind of problem. As paying Accor members, we expect better service from the hotel.

Dear Guest, Warm greetings from Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.

This was my second visit to the hotel, and unfortunately, I did not notice much improvement compared with my previous stay two years ago, except for the new bridge connecting the hotel directly to Yongsan Station. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, and I am not sure why SM Global Package continues to book this hotel for us. The room was only partially clean. During our stay, my friend accidentally dropped something and had to look underneath the wardrobe, where we found that the area had not been properly cleaned. We stayed for four nights as two guests, but my name was not properly registered as the second guest. I am not sure whether the hotel does not normally record the second guest's name, but this also seemed to affect the room amenities. Although there were two of us sharing the room, most of the bathroom amenities were prepared for only one person. I had to call the hotel to request additional items, and unfortunately, I had to do this for two consecutive nights. For a four-night stay, I would have expected the room to be properly prepared for two guests from the beginning. There was also an issue with the late check-out charge. I was quoted one price over the phone, but when I went downstairs to make the payment, I was given a different price. No explanation was provided for the difference. I assumed that the additional amount was due to taxes and service charges, and when I asked the staff, she nodded, which led me to believe that my assumption was correct. However, I found the whole situation confusing and felt that the pricing should have been clearly explained and consistent from the beginning. Overall, the experience did not meet my expectations, particularly given that this was my second visit. I hope the hotel can take this feedback seriously and improve its attention to cleanliness, room preparation, guest registration, and communication regarding charges.

Generally my stay was very good, as it usually is. (This is my 15th stay.) However, there were two major negatives: 1) on checking in, I was informed of various disruptions that would occur during my stay, due to maintenance. This actually also happened on a previous stay too. Hotel management should alert guests of these WHEN RESERVATIONS ARE MADE, so we can choose to go elsewhere. Advising me of scheduled construction noise when I check in is unacceptable, as I have no choice. (Or, the hotel should offer some sort of compensation.) Since this has happened twice, sadly, I am reconsidering my choices for my October return to Seoul. The second issue is, despite the “Do not disturb” light being on, a package was placed in my room—simply because the person delivering it requested that. This is also unacceptable, and a security breach. Novotel staff took a complete stranger’s instruction to place something in my room, overriding MY “do not disturb” (=do not enter) request!
