The Central Plaza Hotel

Excellent, clean, and bright room. The only downside was that the bed had only a Euro socket. To charge devices, I had to move the bed to access the regular outlets. It would be nice to improve this so that you can comfortably lie in bed while charging your laptop and phone. Other than that, the room has a full-sized refrigerator with a freezer, microwave, washing machine, foldable built-in drying rack, stove, frying pan, and all the necessary kitchen utensils. There are 2 toothbrushes and toothpaste. There’s even a vacuum cleaner in the closet. The hotel is new and clean. I’ve stayed in much worse and more expensive rooms in Korea. An excellent place to stay before a flight from Incheon Airport, Terminal 1.

Good technology. Very comfortable and close to the airport, just 2 stations of train away.

My first time travel to Korea and I booked this hotel because I had a concert in the Incheon area. Pros: 1. Self-check-in - super fast and convenient. 2. Some shops nearby for food and essentials, convenience store is within walking distance. 3. The area is quiet with no heavy traffic. 4. The room is highly soundproof—great for people who are not deep sleepers. 5. Hygiene - super clean! The bedsheets and every corner of the room were spotless, with no stains or dust. Thumbs up!👍 6. Most appliances were provided! For example: hair dryer, hair straightener, kettle, microwave, induction cooker, dishwasher, LG laundry styler, floor heater, toiletries, detergent, and towels. 7. Plenty of wall sockets (but the socket near bed is not logic hahahah) 8. Reasonable price. 9. The owner prepared a standing fan for me as requested. 👍 Cons: 1. The fire alarm rang in the middle of the night (around 2 AM). It scared me because it was extremely loud, and the announcement was only in Korean, so I couldn’t understand it. As a solo traveler, I felt panicked and nervous. Since this is a self-check-in hotel, there was no front desk or lobby to ask for help, only a Korean phone number to contact the owner. Since I only had a data-only SIM, I could only reach the owner through the Agoda platform. When I asked the owner about the alarm, he explained that it was triggered by smoking in the room or cooking without turning on the hood. However, I clearly remember turning on the hood while cooking ramen at 11 PM, yet the alarm rang at 2 AM… Super weird… 2. If you’re a solo traveler with two suitcases in winter, the walk from Unseo MRT to the hotel will feel super far due to the cold weather and snow-covered, slippery paths. It took me 20 minutes to walk from Unseo Station to the hotel. 😂😂 But in normal weather, the location is acceptable. Tip: It’s better to have a Korean phone number while staying here, just in case you need to contact the owner promptly.
