When I arrived to room, some cookie crumbs found on chair and floors. Swimming pool was satisfied. Gym was open but no sportswear is available so we could not use it.

Nice Worcation for 36 Hours

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

Daydream15564947693 04/09/2021 TripAdvisor review

I have reserved the hotel from Accor All app. I have booked the Indulgence Package, and the staffs graciously upgraded my Junior Suite to Deluxe Suite(thanks to my Accor Gold status) The room was clean and well designed, able to host two-people-at-work. The food at The 26 was delicious, yet the signature Mega Burger from the Megabite was a little bit disappointing(too much grilled veggies). Because of Covid19, some F&B outlets offer limited services; the hotel is famous for its fine outlets such as Sky Kingdom, Food Exchange, InStyles, covering wide spectrum from economic scale to luxury level. If you want to enjoy the full service, you should stay during the weekends. It was a shame that I didn't receive the usual Welcome Amenities(+Letter) usually the Accor chain offers to their Gold-Level-And-Above members, but since they have upgraded the room for 36 Hours, I chose not to claim about it. I would like to revisit the property sooner or later.

The beddings and overall environments of the hotel are great. Meanwhile, the hotel seems fully booked but the only one restaurant was open for the breakfast. The swimminh pool is packed with people and has one hour limit for each person.

Reasonable hotel. Dull area.

Customer review rating 3.5/5

Nicholas Couples - 12/04/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

The hotel room was reasonable. However we were surprised by the lack of a bathroom door, which made for a very unusual room. There is a perhaps an intention to make the room more "intimate". However, it might be a bit too much. The room otherwise was very decent. The surrounding area is much left to be desired, being quite a dull place for a hotel of this class.

Best facilities and friendly service

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

Sang Cheun P Business - 09/02/2021 TripAdvisor review

The best facilities and overwhelming scenery are excellent. It also satisfies with a professional service system. However, the fact that two hairs came out of the room's towel indicates a decline in the quality of the room service. It wasn't like that before, but something seems to have changed recently. If they're more interested in the cleanliness of the room's equipment, i can say it's the best hotel.

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.

Little disappointed

Customer review rating 1.0/5

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.
