Hotel Naru Seoul MGallery Collection

I booked this hotel for a mother's day strawberry afternoon tea in the evening. We managed to enjoy the night time views of the river and the bridge. Though sunset may be an ideal time to capture both day time, watch the sunset and also experience the night time views. The afternoon tea was reasonable priced at 98,000won for 2 people. Everything tasted delicious, high quality and just the right amount of everything. The drinks were also well made and were tasty. However, I would advise coming here with an even number of people. We attended as a group of 5 and found the portion sizes are reduced for the individual person. The portions were included in with the other guests e.g. the third person would share the same salad with the two other people in the party. Staff claimed more salad was placed in the bowl however, this looked exactly the same as the other pair who were not sharing as a 3. The venue itself was grand, clean and quiet. I would definitely come here again for the afternoon tea and would recommend it. It is also an appropriate setting for a romantic date.

This hotel is a luxury option definitely not budget but the service, kindness, and helpfulness are truly outstanding. We had almost no complaints during our stay. The staff made our trip to South Korea absolutely fantastic. Special thanks to Ellie, Phillip, Gieun, and the maid who made our room perfect every day. Together, they helped this hotel stand out from all others. The attention to detail and the beauty of the building itself are enough to put a smile on your face. On our last night, we arrived a little late for the final rooftop pool entrance, but the staff kindly allowed us in, even though it's normally not permitted. Thank you, NaRu! only thing i must warn, they need to make the fridges in the room just a little stronger haha.

Overall, the experience at this hotel was excellent. Good service, friendly, communicates well in English. The hotel is new and clean. Offers extras like memory foam pillow. Others: Experienced some high frequency noise(could be nearby construction noise, or lift noise-room beside lift), may be disturbing to some people. Restaurants in this area are generally closed on Sundays. On other days, restaurants are more decent than other crowded tourist sites. If possible, get the river view, the view is fantastic. Do bring your own toothbrush, shavers as hotel charges for the use to be eco-friendly
