Katie Couples - 09/11/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I had a good stay at Dragon City Novotel, but just one request. It was one of hot fall days when I stayed so I wanted to turn in the air conditioning but the front desk said they don't let the air conditioning running after summer. I quite couldn't understand since the whole system should be available to use... anyways hope this request would be available on my next stay.

haico v Business - 20/10/2020 TripAdvisor review

excellent hotel close to yongsan station, which makes it easy to travel throughout Seoul. Rooms are very modern and comfortable. No noise and a good bed make it a pleasure to stay. Around the hotel all is quiet in the evening, so if you are looking for lively entertainment it's a 5 min taxi ride.

We are glad that you enjoyed the proximity of Yongsan subway and train station, the modern and comfortable room and the quality of our bed.

Myong P. Families - 19/07/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

I am disappointed in the matter how thing was handle. First of all the I know the standing of diamond member may be the highest level that a member can hold. The service provided was not the way I have experienced in other hotels. First, room upgrade, I was told I will be upgraded to premier vs executive by the front desk. I was given the executive room which was very small and did not meet my satisfaction. I had to call the front desk to ask why and they told me no room was able then later I asked to speak to a manager and they told me they will call back. The call back was rather not sorry for the inconvenience but rather we are doing you a favor. This made me upset and I am very dissatisfied on how the situation was handled. I stay in Accor hotel because of the service but this was my worst experience ever. I have booked MERCURE dragon city for my next stay and hoping the service will be better.

Dear Mr. Myong P., Thank you for sharing with us, your recent experience in our hotel. We are sad and we feel very sorry, that we did not meet your expectation in regards to your benefits and our service. Please, this is far from our usual standards and in this isolate circumstance, we sincerely apology for any inconvenience caused. Kindly note that the room upgrade is ''upon availability. Our suite room inventory was full on that day. The team tried their best as we always do for our elite members. Furthermore, we had upgraded your room to the next category already as per your Diamond status. From the Deluxe to the Executive room. At the end, I am glad that we were able to provide the highest room category we have, the suite room. Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience you have encountered during your stay and we are looking forward to having the opportunity to welcoming you at the Grand Mercure when we will strive to make your stay more seamless and enjoyable. Your sincerely, Maxime Beyer Cluster Guest Experience Manager Seoul Dragon City

We enjoyed the great location of being able to walk to Yongsan Station and the I-Park Mall. Room was a bit small but comfortable. No bathtub in the bathroom, which was disappointing. Pool and the fitness center were great. We're Accor members but really didn't get anything special for that. Had a wonderful tour of the hotel with Mr. Beyer.

Dear Robert G., We thank you very much for sharing with us your recent experience at Novotel Yongsan.

Room and beds were comfy. Great location . . . walking distance to Yongsan Station, which is both a train and subway station, and to I-Park Mall, which has everything. Friendly staff. Special thanks to Mr. Maxime Beyer, the Guest Experience manager who gave us a personal tour. Pool was awesome and so was the fitness center. No complaints.

My 2nd item staying at this hotel. Service level was good. For example: Frontline staff, Ms. Helen Noh, was very helpful to offer travel direction to Seoul train station. And show initiative to arrange morning taxi from hotel to train station. Breakfast line is shorter and staff was prompt and courteous.

From check-in to check out my stay was excellent. The property, facilities, and location are well-suited for both business and leisure travel. Special high marks for the front desk team and Executive Lounge team. My only concern was there were no English language news channels on the TV. I have since been advised that I might have overlooked a function on the remote that offered English language channels. Sadly, this was not pointed out in any in room literature. That's said...excellent stay. Well done!

Dear Mr. J., Thank you for sharing with us your feedback. Especially as Diamond member. Your expertise as frequent traveler, is much appreciated. We are glad to learn that our Heartist provided an excellent service. From the Front Desk team, to the premier lounge. I am sorry for the lack of communication regarding the English TV channels. I will discuss with the team in order to avoid the recurrence in the future. We look forward to welcoming back in the Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan, during your next visit in Korea, for another ''excellent stay''.

pendo1040 Couples - 11/01/2020 TripAdvisor review

I had a wedding and stayed for my departure. After getting married at the time of reservation, I left a message saying, "I can't go on my honeymoon and leave the country right away." Honestly, I didn't expect much. Because the service at Daegu Novotel was a mess on the day of the wedding, I didn't expect it. However, the room that had to be assigned to 36 floors was up on the 39th floor of Han River View and sent us wine and chocolate. And it was very kind.

Dear pendo1040, We are delighted to learn that we provided a great service during your stay in the Novotel Suites Ambassador Seoul Yongsan. Congratulations once again for your wedding! It truly warms our heart to read that we were able to meet your expectations and make your stay worthwhile. Thank you for sharing your kind words. We look forward to welcoming you back in our hotel!
