LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG
Always a pleasure coming here - clean to the point it is spotless and staff always so welcoming and helpful. Also having a coin laundry facility on site next their decently sized gym is so helpful on longer trips! It even has its own cash-to-coin machine and a vending machine for single use detergents ...
