Best beds and full block-out so you can get a really good sleep. On the airport line so definitely one to consider for those flying in/out of Seoul (saves a lot of subway connections with baggage). Extremely comfortable beds and rooms and the aircon never made you feel like you were drying out, like some hotels do.

Nothing, was great.

The hotel was very clean and comfortable. The room was large enough for a couple and the layout was very neatly arranged. I love the spacious toilet/bathroom. There's a Blue Bottle Coffee shop in the ground floor. The Hongik Station is about 5-7 minutes walk from the hotel. There are various restaurants and shops around, and it is near Red Road, where buskers sing/dance at night. This is near the university area, so you will see a lot of students/youth around. To reach RYSE Hotel from Incheon Airport, you can take the limo bus # 6002; get off at Seogyo-dong Station (then walk 2 minutes to the hotel). The trip is about 1 hour.

During the first few days of our stay, our room's airconditioning was not getting cold. We were there in the summer months, so AC temperature is very important. Since the technician could not resolve the problem, we were transferred to another room, which was cooler and more comfortable.

We had a great stay at this hotel in Hongdae, Seoul! The location is fantastic, just steps away from the main street in Hongdae with all its amazing stores, restaurants, and energy. There’s even a Blue Bottle Coffee shop conveniently located on the ground floor, which was perfect for grabbing coffee each morning.

The room was clean and comfortable, and overall, everything about the hotel was good. The only unusual part was that on our first day, the cleaner came to our room at around 4 pm, which caught us by surprise as we were resting inside. As a result, our room didn’t get cleaned for that night. Typically, housekeeping is done in the morning when guests are likely out, so this was a bit of an inconvenience. However, for the rest of our stay, housekeeping arrived in the morning as expected.

I couldn’t have been happier with the experience at RYSE. I travelled with my husband and 3 small kids and the staff were amazing with us at all times. I will forever be greatfull to them and to RYSE for helping us in the middle of the night to get my baby into an ambulance to emergencies when she suddenly couldn’t breathe properly. It was the scariest moment in our life and they went the extra mile with us. Thank you forever RYSE team and we will be back for sure!!

The hotel restaurant is beautiful and the food is amazing but it closes too early and already, once you order they already bring you the bill which is a little weird, I feel. But other than that all good.

Check-in is on the 3rd floor (I was informed directly at the entrance) and the staff is very friendly. You're right at the heart of the action and everything can be reached really quickly, Hongik University Station is in the immediate vicinity. The room is really nicely designed; the glass front from the bathroom to the room can be closed with a roller blind. The breakfast offers everything you could wish for - a little bit of everything.

The elevator takes a long time (although there are 3 of them), but the hotel can't do anything about that.

The hotel is located at the centre of Hong Dae, very convenient. Surrounded with lots of restaurants and shops. The hotel room is very spacious, it comes with two queen beds and sofa. Very pleasant stay.

Great location, close to the subway and shopping and restaurants district

Front desk support can improve: 1. Taxi rate from hotel to airport was missed reported, caused some confusion. 2. We asked for a Korean traditional dish but was led to a Chinese restaurant?! 3. We asked if there is a nail clipper, they replied,, guest can only use at the front desk. For safety concerns, staff can oversee the guest while they use the clip. 4. The plastic slipper was very uncomfortable. Just a few feedback I had in mind

The room was really nice, beds were comfortable and facilities were great. The staff were super nice and helpful.

We paid $125 to get our laundry done, which was quite pricey and the staff weren’t clear about laundry fees beforehand, although we asked. They also charged us for the toothbrushes provided in our room when we checked out, which was also something new to us. I also could’ve chosen a nicer location for our stay, as this one was in a noisy, kinda outdated one.

Location excellent for exploring Hongdae. Room has lovely decor. Nice large bathroom with bathtub. Concierge friendly as were checkin staff.

Oddly loud sheets. The duvet cover is soft but it makes a loud noise with any slight movement (like rubbing plastic bags). For light sleepers, that’s not good. Anyone else in room tossing and turning will make quite some noise. We were on the 10th floor and could hear it he buses and traffic below. For as much as we paid, expected basics like a minibar and coffee machine that is so common nowadays in all grades of hotels. There were 2 jars of water in the fridge.

This is a top notch boutique hotel. The design and feel of it are truly nice. Our room was beautiful: stunning view and interior. The bed was very comfortable - which is not easy to find. The bathroom was luxurious with little details like a hydrating facemask upon arrival. All staff were very helpful. The breakfast buffet was amazing. There is even a bar that stays open until 6am. There is only one thing to take into account: the price. You get what you pay for- which is more than elsewhere

It's difficult to judge where some elements were overpriced, such as the cocktails in their rooftop bar. However, I can't complain about this really.
