Had a wonderful 10 day stay!! It was walking distance to everything or to transportation. Room was clean and had heat/ac. Loved the heated and self flushing/cleaning toilet! Hotel had a restaurant on site and the food was amazing! The staff was super nice and helpful. Only suggestion would be to remove or deep clean stained carpet in hallway. Other than that it was awesome and would definitely stay again!

For Americans new to South Korea, expect hotel rooms to be smaller than what you are used to. Hand Picked Hotel is no exception. Then again, the Hotel rates are far lower than in the USA. If youโ€™re expecting a 4star experience and room sizes, book a Five Star Hotel. I would give a 4 star to the staff, only because I ran into a situation where no staff were present when I accidentally locked myself out of my room. Apparently the young reception crew were out back taking a break together. When I found them, and asked for assistance, they said they were taking a break and will be back in about 5 minutes. In all other instance, all the staff, from doorman to cleaning ladies were curtious and helpful. The hotel itself seems old and run down. We had a false fire alarm due to the elevators malfunctioning. Apparently water had flooded the elevator shafts. Then one of the two elevators the hotel had was shut down for the remainder of our stay. I will chalk it up to the rainy season. Our stay at Hand Picked Hotel was at the end of July.

Just okayโ€ฆ

Pros: Staff is very kind, helpful & English speaking, the cafe in the basement is nice, the maids come in to change your towels, make your bed, take your trash out etc every day, eco friendly shower products, airport bus Cons: Location: 20-30 minute taxi ride to popular spots in Seoul, 40-50+ mins with the subway or bus, scuffs on the walls and furniture, room would get up to 80+ degrees even though the heat was turned off and the curtains were closed, no airflow unless you open a window which I often had to do to cool the room down but then the street noise was very loud and disruptive, toilet didnโ€™t flush very well, yellowing grout in the shower, dirty screens/windows, rips and holes in the towels and bedding (the strings in the bottom of our duvet covers where theyโ€™re supposed to tie together were completely ripped off, there was a loud electrical crackling coming from the wall by the door one night too ?โ€ฆ could be a nice hotel itโ€™s just run down and needs some refreshing
Window
Duvet cover
The cabinet that holds the mini fridge was super banged up, as was the side table
