Before we talk about Intercontinental Seoul COEX hotel, let's watch the below video first.

 

 

 

These days, there are limited places to go because of Covid 19. The number of people who go on a hotel vacation is steadily increasing. Recently, the vaccinations have begun and more and more people are going outdoors because they feel stable. Gangnam and COEX are always crowded. COEX alone has many five-star hotels, such as Grand Intercontinental Seoul Parnas, Oakwood Premier COEX Center, and Intercontinental Seoul COEX hotel. If you are thinking about staying in Gangnam area and looking for the cost-effectiveness, you may consider intercontinental Seoul COEX.

Superior

When I enter the room, there are gowns and slippers like any other hotel. But I was very sad because the slippers seemed old.

It's a view of Bongeunsa Temple that comes out when you enter the room. In the busy city center, temples and green trees make you feel at ease.

Personally, I don't really eat the things in the refrigerator at any hotel, but most of the time it's full of drinks, but as you can see in the picture, it looked a bit empty.

It's a toilet.

I don't think there's much difference in other room types, so I'll look at the Club Presidential Suite right away.

 

Club Presidential Suite

 

In the case of Intercontinental Seoul COEX hotel, maybe because it was old, it felt more like a friendly and warm house rather than luxurious.

The view is good.

Rather than luxury, it feels more comfortable like a normal house.

Summary: The first impression was that the interior was very old even though it was five-star. From the moment I first saw the slippers, I doubted if they were 5 stars, including the bathroom. However, I want to give 4 out of 5 because I want to give you a high score considering the low price and cost-effectiveness compared to other 5-star hotels nearby. It would be great to remodel the interior later. Fitness was nice because it was spacious and pleasant.

 

4 star

 

Have a great day.
