New Boolim Hotel Seoul Reviews

Very strategic location. very close to : a)Cheongnyangni Station b)Airport bus stop c)Lotte Plaza d)Lotte Departmental Shopping Complex e)Daiso Store f)Convenience Store-Family Mart. Very easy to take taxi around the hotel. The hotel might be on the "run down" side, but the location is a bonus for any one who stays here.

Positive: excellent location-just meters from Cheongnyangi metro, bus and train stations; large size bedroom and bathroom (for 4 people); very good floor heating & shower systems. Negative: The corridors and rooms are very run down and a bit dirty. They do not actually provide airport transfer service despite being listed in the hotel facilities. The staff speak very little English or not at all. Practise your phrasebook Korean if using this hotel.

very near a big mall, and bus to airport

The first night we were allocated two rooms on the 8th floor. That is rigtht below the Karaoke Bar, which is at the ninth floor. That meant a lot of noise until late. At two in the morning we demanded other rooms at lower floors - it took one hour of heavy conflict with the manager, before he found other rooms. After thet episode everything went well. fine service the following days. But don´t accept rooms at the 8th floor!! Unless you are able to sleep 8 hours in the middle of a discotheque.

New Boolim Hotel is located in an ally near Lotte department store. It is next to the red light district. At night, women are sitting behind a glass window trying to call in customers. The room was old. The bathroom was very small and dirty. The toilet did not work properly. In the morning, the hotel staff would sing very loudly and bang things around. Most pictures I have seen of this hotel are computer generated!!! What you see is not what you get! The good thing about this hotel was it's location. It was right next to the subway and bus stop.

For the price, it's worth it considering the location of the hotel. The facilities and accommodation are very basic, but it's very easy to go to different places from the hotel because it's very close to the metro station (Cheongnyangni).

Price is cheap, the room was fine for the money, old but fine. Had a big bathroom. The location was good right next to the underground, and only a few stops from Seoul. Window was blocked so you could not see outside. Good air conditioner. I would recommend this hotel if you are on a budget and not expecting 5 star.
