Ibis Ambassador Myeongdong

Great and strategic location, within walking distance to Myeongdong Street

It was clean there was a airport bus stop right outside, 2 minutes away from a shopping street that had amazing street food

Location - its just there at Myeongdong shopping streets + airport bus that's just a few steps away so save $ without having to book for private car nor the hassle of lugging heavy luggages around train stations

The location is outstanding. I've tried four different hotels in the area and this one is the best. Metro stations are nearby to take you anywhere around Seoul. You can walk out of the hotel and into the heart of Myeongdong with its vibrant night life, street food, shopping, and entertainment. With all the fantastic street food don't miss the Michelin soup shop named Myeongdong Kyoja for lunch, and an evening on "chicken street" enjoying Korean fried chicken and beer / soju from any one of 7-8 locations side-by-side. Staff was fantastic, rooms quiet and clean, and breakfast had a number of lovely options with the dining room on the 19th floor overlooking Seoul and the Tower. We loved staying here.

Location Great, Walking distance to shopping and evening street food. Can go anywhere by subway, bus or taxi. The airport limosine bus stop is next to the hotel. Stayed in a traditional room with ondol floors. The beds were comfy and low, the ondol floors keep the bed warm. Traditional hanji type sliding windows give a nice atmospere, however the exterior windows can't be opened. The bathroom is small compared to others we stayed in, one foot is in the ocean cruise style shower when you use the bidet. The breakfastdidn't really offer that much variety, it was okay. The food isn't really kept warm by the heat lamps. I was able to walk to the palace and underground Sejong and Yi museums (1.4 mile) and take the bus back with no problems. If you want to go to an awesome learning adventure that is free, go to the Admital Yi and King Sejong statues by the palace and US Embassy. Under the stautes is a museum to these two national treasures and a scale model of a Turtle Ship. The historical presentation about their lives and achievements as well as artifacts is presented wonderfully. The front desk staff is wonderful. When we checked out they allowed us to leave our luggage at the reception area and do some final shopping and sightseeing before catching the airport limosine bus to the terminal. This is what I was looking for in a room and I was happy with it.
