Handpicked Hotel & Collections

Cutleries and plate can't be taken to room, reason was not told to us. Instead we got spoon and bowl out of plastic for disposal after usage. On one hand they tell that they are environmentally friendly and then they don't provide normal cutlery and plate.

In room there is no towel for the floor in bathroom (for usage after shower).

No rubbish bag is available, only a bin which gets dirty easily without bag.

Cups for tea and coffee were available, but there was no spoon or something else to stir the coffee.

There is no hook to hang clothes or towels etc.

We are 3 people. They gave us after making up the room only one big towel and 3 small towel. This is not enough.

The safe didn't work and we told them in the morning. In the evening the safe is still not working.

Breakfast: no buffet, can only be ordered and you have no choice. We paid for room with breakfast for 3 people. 3rd person is our kid. We only got breakfast for 2 people, so kid does not receive breakfast. After asking, they said kids under 8 years old do not receive breakfast which means kids don't receive anything to eat!

Breakfast is a fixed set, can't be changed even if you ask the day before. All guests receive the same breakfast, no matter whether they can eat it or not (allergy could be a risk). You pay for breakfast, but you may not be able to eat it.

Nice modern hotel with very kind stuff! The standard rooms are small but it's good for a few nights! Everything is clean and the beds are comfortable. The hotel is easy to reach with public transportation only 5 minutes to walk to the next station.

This is for the Owner, explicitly, because the staff is friendly, helpful, and very polite at any time,
Dear Owner, For 2 nights we stayed in your hotel and we are happy not to come again. If you think that making a profit is the only thing you need to think about, then you are completely wrong. The following points lead to my rating. In detail, please read 1 to 5:

1. Yellowish blankets, bed linen, pilliw covers and towels are not what a guest expects. Pick a proper laundry, not the cheapest maybe and let them use some bleach, which also helps to remove stains because there are a lot...

2. A room for two people should have towels for two people, not only for one person.

3. Towels with holes are unusual for good Hotels, so why you do not replace them?

4. The walls need paint from time to time, painting costs a little bit of money but calms down guests, bc stains always tell a story.

5. Hallway carpet...that green thing on the floor...I guess it was a carpet, bc it has more holes than a swiss cheese, it needs a renewal.

I can also provide some pictures if you want.

Please fix these points, and your hotel looks much much better and more professional.

Thank you for your time!

Best regards,
Sascha H

In Seoul, tourists often gravitate towards the opulent charm of the city's lavish village hotels, drawn to the metropolis's reputation for grandeur. Yet amidst the glittering facades, there lies a quieter, more authentic side to Seoul – found in its tranquil neighborhoods, where locals and everyday citizens weave the true tapestry of the city's soul.

Much like the burgeoning trend of neighborhood cafes, which have recently transcended their local roots to become beloved destinations for both residents and outsiders alike, Seoul's hospitality scene has seen the emergence of a new trend: the neighborhood hotel. These intimate accommodations offer a respite from the hustle and bustle, evoking a sense of warmth and familiarity that resonates deeply with visitors.

Enter Handpicked Hotel, a shining example of this trend. Here, the emphasis is not on ostentation but on understated elegance – from the modest scale of the property to its tastefully appointed interiors and impeccable service. The cuisine mirrors this ethos, with a menu that marries sophistication with simplicity, tantalizing the taste buds with each bite.

As I prepare to bid farewell to Handpicked Hotel after my second stay, I am filled with gratitude for the serenity it has afforded me. In a city known for its frenetic energy, this tranquil haven has provided a welcome sanctuary, allowing me to depart with a sense of peace and contentment.

Really good hotel, located on a great location, accessible to everything from convenience store to main city. Near by shopping areas as well as Restaurants.
Room, Amenities are good, comfortable cleaned rooms. Value for the money.
