Grace Lee Hotel Seoul Deluxe Room (Seoul Station View)

I booked a stay at the Grace Lee Hotel, which is famous for its Godzilla Hotel in Shinjuku. Japanese hotel chains have a unique comfort that makes you feel like you're traveling in Japan.

I've previously stayed at hotels like Fukui Fujita Hotel and Washington Hotel in Fukuoka Canal City, which are part of the same group. This time, I decided to try the Grace Lee Tamachi.

Although primarily a business-class hotel, it is part of a nationwide chain in Japan. The hotel is located between Seoul City Hall and Namdaemun, at the entrance of the Bukchang-dong food alley.

It's within walking distance of Myeongdong, Cheonggyecheon, and Seoul Station, making it a cost-effective business hotel. The hotel is a 20-story building nestled among densely packed skyscrapers, and I was assigned a room on the 20th floor.

The room offers a "Samsung view," directly facing the former Samsung headquarters. While Namdaemun is obscured by the building in front, Seoul Station is visible from the room.

A notable feature of this hotel is that every room is equipped with a bathtub, showcasing a typical Japanese touch. In Japan, even rural business hotels usually come with bathtubs and bidets.

Although some newly built hotels with modern designs may lack bathtubs, I believe having a bathtub is symbolic of a luxurious hotel stay.

As a perk during check-in, I received a luxury cosmetic amenity set and an Italian towel. They also issued a coupon offering one free night for every five nights stayed within three months.

The front desk staff were extremely friendly, and I could sense the unique service quality typical of Japanese hotels. The room design also reflected the Japanese hotel brand's characteristics. Thank you.
