Hagwan, Buyeo hotel rooms at the Independent

"Free valet parking was a big plus in a busy city. Although the hotel is located in a happening night spot, it was very quiet inside. Exceptionally clean. Staff was very friendly and communicated clearly. Breakfast was included and it was good for hotel fare. The in room massage chair was a plus. There are many restaurants, shops and clubs within walking distance. Excellent stay."

"The room is clean. The receptionists are nice and very helpful. during the trip, my friend lost hist wallet during an excursion to the mountain, and someone collected it and return to a police station. The staff went out his way to drive us to the police station to pick up the wallet in the middle of the night. He just accepted verbal appreciation, but refused any money conpensation. Such a kind gentlemen! We are very much appreciated of him. Thank you all staff for your hospitality and a nice stay."

"Great choice for an overnight stay and convenient to the football stadium (which is why I stayed there). Only 3 stops away on Metro. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices."

"The electricity of a part of room was going and coming back"

"This was a clean and quiet place to stay with good air conditioning. The view of the fortress from my bedroom window was really pretty. The staff called taxis for me when needed."

"Old town has its’ charm. I only found out about the historical church & other sites the day I left… Too bad, will visit Gongju again one day…. Overall, it’s a good stay. There’s a laundry steamer in the room!! Jumbo size tv screen & game station set up. Nice touch! The hotel is a 8mins walking distance to Tourist information center by Gangsanseong Fortress!! Also can walk to both Nuryeong & Royal tombs, National museum as well as Hanuk village."

"We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The bed was comfortable and had a soft, warm blanket. The room had a large-screen TV with Google TV and hundreds of live TV stations. Two gaming stations were available in the room. We had a refrigerator, a hot water kettle, a humidifier, and a clean and functional bathroom. The best part of the stay was the assistance of the staff, who called to check that we had everything we needed after checking in. The staff also called us a cab as we checked out and assured we got our baggage loaded and were safely on our way."

"The room was clean enough but it seems that the hotel is one of those rent by the hour hotel. Expedia should be aware of that. Check in was not particularly welcoming."

"Very convenient to hiking and ride a cable car."
