Had a great stay at the Holiday Inn IHG in Hongdae! The location was perfect—right in the middle of all the fun spots, shops, and restaurants. The room was clean, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet considering how lively the area is. Staff were friendly and super helpful, and check-in/check-out was a breeze. Overall, an easy, convenient, and comfortable place to stay in Hongdae. Would definitely come back!

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic location for those chilly winter days; you really won't want to venture outside much in this weather. The breakfast options are standard. Be prepared for crowds during peak hours (8:30-9:30 AM), as finding an empty table can be a challenge. Additionally, breakfast hours are a bit earlier than usual compared to other places (6:30-9:30 AM).

Great location and breakfast menu changes slightly everyday. Only small issue is that the lobby location not on the ground floor and the lift can be pretty slow and packed. Room is of decent size and clean.
