Room is spacious and condition is good, with the options to switch the ac between cool and warm features and also able to open the window for fresh air is definitely a bonus. However, having the window open is very noisy as the hotel is just next to the main road. The water temperature in the bathroom is inconsistent and will be suddenly very hot and very cold throughout the shower, and it seems happen mostly at night time. We thought it may be because of the temperature setting and after adjustment it seems fine on the day time, but happens again at night. Location is ok especially if you are travelling with bus. The hotel is located in between Gongdeck and Mapo station, which is within 5-8 mins walk from the hotel, depends on the time of the day you are travelling, it could take you a few line changes to get to where you want to go from Mapo station. Getting from the airport to the hotel with airport bus is good as it’s the first stop, however, it’s the other way round when you are going to the airport from the hotel. Since it’s the last bus stop to get to the airport, we have missed 2 airport buses as both of them are full (luggage compartment or seats) and finally get on the last 2 seats from the third bus, so if you are planning to travel with the airport bus to the airport, you may have to ensure plenty of time or reserve the seats in advance

The rooms were large and having the humidifier by the bedside was a big plus. One consideration for the hotel is to allow guests to use their own streaming accounts for the TVs. The room had a huge TV, but we couldn't watch Netflix as they only had TV channels on it.

Cigarettes fumes (although it touted as non-smoking compound). If your name made at the time of booking differs from your passport - they will reject pre-paid booking - I asked to see their Mgr to learn of possible way to resolve - he didn’t show face & staff were not emphatic. Yet the night before checkout date - a new service team was very professional. Great hotel - but it’s thr people that make the place.

We had a great stay at Roynet Mapo Hotel. The location is excellent — just a short walk to both Mapo and Gongdeok MRT stations, which made getting around Seoul very convenient. The room was clean and comfortable, with a large TV and fast Wi-Fi. We were pleasantly surprised with a free room upgrade upon check-in, which was a nice bonus.

The hotel doesn’t have a pool, but it does have a small gym with two treadmills and two exercise bikes — good enough for a quick workout. There’s also a self-serve coffee machine and complimentary bottled water available in the lobby, which was a thoughtful touch.

Just across the road, there are plenty of food spots and bars within minutes’ walk. A great base for exploring Seoul with comfort and convenience.

Hygiene and smoking issues

The self-service check in or check out was very convenient. My biggest issue with the room is the hygiene and traces of smoking in the room. It is supposed to no-smoking room, but the furniture is soaked with second-hand cigarette smell, which made me really nauseous. The bedsheet and pillow cover has brown stains, likely blood, which made me feel very uncomfortable.

This was the worst hotel I have stayed in for a while. They (housekeeping) damaged my phone charger and said they cannot take responsibility for it because the staff doesn't recall anything. Yet my charger went for fine that morning and not damage to broken when I got back to my room at night. So it was either housekeeping or someone else had access to my room?

Check in was a terrible. I had a red-eye flight and was there about 10am. Staff told me they have rooms available but quoted me almost a full night to check in early. And I wasn't a 1-2 night guest. I was there for 7 nights. Then I asked what's the earliest I can check in for a lower charge or without charge and was told about 2pm but if I came after 3pm she'll give me a high floor. I came back close to 4pm and guess what, I got a low floor.

So many other things were bad. Staff were pretty inconsistent with their level of service. Hot water in the shower didn't always work. Housekeeping sometimes didn't replace linens, water and mugs/glasses and by the end of my stay I had no bath robe or clean mugs. And no where to get them. I wasn't informed of the coffee, tea facilities available to guests until my 2nd last day.

It's really such a shame because the location was great and the room itself was fine. I wouldn't stay here again or recommend for anyone wanting to stay more than 1 night.

Stayed here for a 24 hour transit in Seoul as it had easy access to the Gongdeok (공덕) station which has four lines running through it - Line 5, Line 6, Airport Railroad and Gyeongui-Jungang Line. Breakfast was excellent too - you select your desired main course from a series of options (mostly Korean dishes like bibimbap or seaweed soup) and it is served with an amazing array of Korean traditional side dishes. Room was small but extremely comfortable! Highly recommend this hotel!

2nd stay at Roynet, and it's generally a good value option with what most travellers would need. It doesn't claim to be 5 star quality, but it's great for what it is. Hotel is conveniently located between Mapo (nearer) and Gongdeog station. There's a good chain cafe below and many eating options nearby. Room is effiiciently laid out and there's the provision of a self laundry, water dispenser, microwave, ice maker for common use. Would consider staying again.

The room was not big, which is understandable as the hotel is in Seoul, but I loved the view of the city and the surrounding mountains from my 21st flr. room. The hotel is fairly new, which means very clean and well maintained. (A big shout out to the cleaning staff! They are doing a great job.) The location of the hotel is very convenient: a few minutes’ walk from two subway stations and a 1/2 block from the airport limousine bus. The front desk staff were helpful and efficient. The area has endless choices for food. I’d definitely stay here again.

Lack of efficiency, we reached hotel early morning and noted early check in wasn’t allowed but front desk staff requested passport for registration and checking our reservation. This step was repeated again when we back in the evening time so kind of wasting time to do duplicate checking. It will be better just to check the reservation in the morning instead of asking passport for guest to leave the luggage at hotel only and do the proper process for check in in the evening
