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!

The hotel feels more like a 4-star property at best rather than a 5-star hotel, and in my opinion, the overall experience does not justify the price charged. The bathroom layout was rather strange and not particularly practical. For a hotel marketed as 5-star, I would have expected much better-quality shower fittings and fixtures. The bidet was also not very responsive, and surprisingly, there were no hooks in the bathroom, which made it inconvenient to hang clothes or towels. The pillows were another disappointment as they were far too soft and did not provide adequate support. Overall, while the stay was acceptable, the quality of the room, bathroom fittings, amenities, and attention to detail fell short of what I would expect from a genuine 5-star hotel, especially at this price point.

First, compared to other hotels, despite being a 5-star hotel, the quality of the amenities was a bit disappointing. Secondly, I left the cleaning sign on and went out, but when I returned to my hotel room after 5 hours, it was still not cleaned, which was very bewildering.

On and off, the noise lasted until 2am, though I stayed at the 24th floor. The site was like 100 meter away between the hotel and Yongsan train station, and could be seen clearly from window. Though I had clearly requested a room on the other side, the reception staff clearly said Yes, but turned out its still the room facing the train station.

Dear Guest, Greetings from Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. We sincerely appreciate your continued loyalty as an ALL Platinum member and are sorry to learn that your experience did not meet your expectations. Please accept our sincere apologies for the disturbance caused by the nearby construction work. We understand how disruptive the noise must have been, especially late into the night, and regret that it affected your ability to enjoy a comfortable and restful stay. While the construction is beyond our control, we fully understand the inconvenience it caused. We are also truly sorry that the room assigned to you did not match your request. We understand how disappointing it must have been to receive a room facing the construction site after being advised that your preference had been accommodated.

​We arrived at 1:00 PM, but couldn't check in until nearly 5:00 PM. When I complained at the front desk, the staff brushed it off casually, simply saying the room wasn't ready yet. ​Traveling with a child, our schedule was tightly packed, and we expected to check in by 3:00 PM at the very least. While an hour or two of delay might be just another routine day for the staff, time is extremely valuable to travelers. To make matters worse, the toilet in our assigned room was dirty when we finally entered. ​We will definitely not be returning here. We are also planning to stay at Novotel Danang at the end of this year, and I truly hope they do not handle things this way.

Dear Guest, Greetings from Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback following your recent stay with us. As an ALL Gold member, your continued trust in our brand is greatly valued, and we are deeply sorry that your experience with us fell so far short of your expectations. First and foremost, please accept our sincere apologies for the significant delay in providing your room. We fully understand how disappointing it must have been to wait until nearly 5:00 PM, particularly while traveling with your family and expecting to begin your plans after our standard check-in time. We also regret that the communication you received at the Front Desk did not convey the level of empathy, professionalism, and care that you should rightfully expect. We recognize that how we communicate during challenging situations is just as important as resolving them, and we are truly sorry that this left you feeling disregarded. We are equally concerned to learn that the cleanliness of your room did not meet expectations upon arrival. Discovering that the toilet had not been properly cleaned is unacceptable and certainly not the first impression we wish to create. Please accept our sincere apologies for this oversight. Your comments have been shared with the relevant management teams and will be used to reinforce both our operational procedures and our service standards. Feedback such as yours is invaluable, as it highlights where we must do better to provide the experience our guests expect from Novotel. We are particularly saddened to learn that this stay has caused you to lose confidence in returning to our hotel. While we understand your disappointment, we sincerely hope that you will one day allow us the opportunity to restore your trust and demonstrate the genuine hospitality for which we strive to be known.

We had a wonderful time, the staff was extremely helpful and warm, they helped us change rooms even though we made the mistake of booking twin beds instead of double bed. The location is great, in a quiet area, close to transportation and shopping venues. Room was very comfortable and cleanliness was more than we expected. One of the cleanest hotels we ever stayed in. We enjoyed the amenities.

Comfortable stay in a very convenient location with excellent service. What stood out to me was the how warm and welcoming every team member was. Everyone I encountered, from concierge desk to the front desk to house keeping and staff at the swimming pool, greeted me with a smile. I’d like to mention Sahin (I unfortunately forgot his last name) from the concierge desk who went above and beyond to help with all of my luggage and questions. 10/10 for his service and hospitality.
