Excellent accommodation
Room was tidy and check in was easy
The gym was a really good size as well
Great location - close to shops and metro
Staff helpful
We had an excellent stay. Everything was close to amenities, shops, restaurants, and tourist attractions. The staff were excellent.
Thank you, Orakai♥️
Great for families travelling together wanting to stay in condo-like setup but still have a hotel. Great gym. Good location. We were on 13th floor, the next door building construction noise wasn't an issue.
Great location, in the middle of lots of shopping and food options. Subway stations are pretty close and within walking distance including some of the main touristy areas. Staff was very helpful and nice, amenities and rooms are looking a tad outdated but they are big and spacious. If back in Seoul I may stay here again, you can't have a better location.
Lovely flat, huge space, great for accommodating shopping and also the odd meal. Washing machine dryer combo was also great. Super convenient location too!
The property location was good. Nice quiet area away from crowds. The hotel rooms need a refresh. Nicer furniture and needs updating like fresh paint and more modern furnishings. Convenient coffee shop downstairs. The breakfast room needs to stay open longer. The price on Expedia said $189/ nite but I was charged $232/ nite. That’s a lot of tax
Great place to stay when visiting Seoul. Just outside the main bustle, but only 5 minutes away from all main hubs and key areas to visit. Suites are very good and lots of room too. Really good gym / fitness centre with plenty of weights, treadmills, strength machines - definitely one of the best hotel gyms I’ve been to. Also has a swimming pool and sauna which we didn’t have time to checkout. Friendly staff and smooth check in and out.
Plenty of space to spread out. Most home comforts. Washing machine was a great thing to have as you go through so many clothes in extreme heat.

This hotel has lots of amenities and is close to the tourist sites but the rooms are very dated, the carpets and walls are stained and tired. This was advertised as 5 star luxury, no way!
Rooms very clean and very spacious one bedroom apartments with everything you need cooking washing machine dishwasher has it all staff helpful and friendly nice swimming pool and sauna and gym
Everything was great from laundry, clean room, wonderful staff. The breakfast good enough. I really enjoyed staying at the Orakai Insadong suites. I’m planning to go back in October. Thank you!
Overall we were happy with the room size and the apartment location. The apartment is dated. The master bathroom was a bit cramped due to size and layout.
One of the apartments had an odor - kind of smelled like herbal medicine but not marijuana.
I thought the workers were friendly.
We didn’t really use the amenities on the 2nd floor so I can’t comment.
The place is perfect for a small family at a decent price. I do recommend.
Great location & spacious rooms. Enjoyed how there were good facilities. Breakfast was average but still a breakfast. Staff were lovely and helpful. We enjoyed our stay!
Rooms were very clean and spacious. Staff were very helpful and friendly. All-in-one washer / dryer unit in the room was definitely a plus. Indoor pool was very nice. Close proximity to numerous eateries and shops. Would definitely stay here again. If I had to nitpick, not all toilets had a bidet or handheld water spray. Also, the breakfast buffet is an American buffet, no Korean dishes were offered. Overall, amazing place, would definitely come back again.
