Don't stay here. This is a love motel beside a bar. The area is nice but this hotel is nasty and dirty. It's cheaper to pay cash than to book through here.

worst hotel, dirty room, rude & dishonest staff
Arrived and was told that they do not have room for me because my booking is booked for the following day. There was also another guest in the same situation as me. Feeling betrayed I showed them proof of paid booking receipt. They kept denying then then blamed expedia but the other guest booked through korean booking app and he has the same problem. After 30 mins of heated conversation (standing as no room for waiting at reception) and demanding my money back, they gave me a room. Room was the worst stay. Everything was sticky, smells of cigarette, heater was not functioning, dusty shelves/desks. I felt cheated and thankgod it was only one night stay.

Very convenient location with free parking
While space is limited throughout hotel especially in rooms, to stay for a couple of nights is ok. Good location which is close to train metro. Families wanting to stay should be aware that the hotel seems to be more for a couple's staycation rather than family but the room cost is really value for money.

Good for the price
Pretty typical Korean hotel, in my experience. Stayed here for four nights. The price was good and located almost equidistant between Apgujeong and Sinsa subway stations. However our room smelled kind of reminiscent of smoke, and at night I could definitely tell other guests were smoking in their rooms—the hallway reeked of smoke. One day when we came back, I thought someone may have been smoking in our bathroom, but it could've been the vent. The bedding looked a little old and had some stains on it, and the room was a little dusty. We asked the front desk for another large-size bath towel and they wouldn't provide one, but there were plenty of smaller-sized towels in the room. Anyway, we were mostly just looking for a place to sleep since we were out all day anyway, so this was sufficient.

The hotel has a weird scent. The hotel is very dark and the staff didn't clean my room the 5 days I stayed there I had to ask them to clean it.

No Air-conditioning
Hotel hid the remote for the air-conditioning and will not allow us to use it. They said they only let the guests use it during summer time but it is already hot and we don't feel comfortable in the room! Hotel shouldn't be making decisions like that. Regardless of what the weather is the description shows that there is air-conditioning so there must be air-conditioning!

Cheap hotel at a good location
Location is excellent, plenty of good food nearby. Very close to Garosu-gil. Rooms are not really that clean but can do for short stays. Rooms are quite spacious and hv good layout. Hotel room service is fast and staff are friendly.

Well priced hotel in good location
Ideally placed for travellers looking to spend time around Gangnam, Apgujeong and Sinsa-dong, Highland Hotel is a decent little hotel for those without a massive budget. The rooms aren't huge, and the view isn't great - but they are clean, with a spacious wet room, air con and wifi. I tend to use hotel rooms as a base to recharge while I spend most of my time out and about and this was perfect for that. If you're not used to travelling in East Asia the size of the room and the hardness of the bed may disappoint, but it's to be expected in places like this and I don't think should be seen as a minus point.

Location is great but the room was dull of dust. It feels more like a motel rather than hotel. Staff at the reception was not really friendly. I pick the places based on the hospitality. I do not think I will recommend it to anyone.

Hotel located in a great area Staff is friendly.
I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Highland. It was very comfortable and a great price. I only left to visit more areas further away. The staff was very friendly, but very quite, which made the hotel feel very welcoming. The only downside is the stairs in front of the building make it hard to lift luggage. But there is an elevator once you are inside and at the front desk.

Cozy, warm room!
I enjoyed it very much, but the stairs walking up to the front desk was painful. The employee at the front desk was very sweet and helped me carry up some of my luggage to the elevator. I hope one day they remodel the front, so there's a ramp instead of stairs, it would be easier for guests with luggage or handicaps.

Ratings based on the star rating of the hotel. I.e compared to a 5 star hotel the scores would be lower but within its own star class it's a very good hotel.

괜찮은 호텔.....
사진으로 본 것보다는 조금 좁게 느껴지는 듯하지만 하루지내기에 나쁘지 않았습니다. 더블침대와 싱글침대로 구성되어 있었는데 더블은 괜찮았던데 반해 싱글침대는 넘 딱딱해서 불편했다 하더군요. 그외는....욕실도 깨끗하고...시끄럽지 않고 대체적으로 좋았던거 갔습니다.

ベットが広そうなので利用させて頂きました まさかのラブホテル! そこを気にされない方だと鍵もカードで部屋も綺麗で広く日本語案内の紙もありましたしとても良かったです。 スタッフは日本語通じません。英語でなんとかチェックインしました。 くしも2種類あったり、充電器も全てに対応していてWiFiも部屋着のガウンもある。 とても良かったです! 近くに24時間営業のご飯屋さんもあります。

가격대비 너무 실망이다.. 마치 러브텔 같았다., 입구가 계단으로 되어있어 캐리어 들고 올라가기도 힘들었디. 룸은 사진보다 훨씬 좁았으며 전체 분위기가 러브텔처럼.. 자정넘어 들어온 옆방 손님이 20분 간격으로 샤워를 하는데 그 소리에 잠이 깨었다.. 프론트에 전화했더니 좀있으면 괜찮아질 거라고 했다.. 그리고 식사시간대가 되면 된장냄새를 비롯해 음식 냄새가 로비와 객실 복도에 진동했다..

ホテルの場所
新沙洞、狎鴎亭、カロスキルに徒歩圏内。ホテルの近くにはコンビニ、食堂、カフェと凄く便利。新沙洞の駅からは坂道が少し大変。部屋は少し掃除が行き届いてない所もある。アメニティーはほとんど揃っている。何も持って行かなくていいぐらいだった。冷蔵庫の飲み物もサービスで毎日補充してくれていた。一番安い部屋だったから、湯船は無し。スーツケース2人分広げるのも狭く大変。館内暖房だったので、凄く暑かった。フロント24時間で、対応も凄く良かった。日本語は通じない。ラブホテルを改装してる。

寝泊まりするだけなら快適
設備や作りが古いが、寝泊まりするだけであれば問題ない。必要なものが揃っている。市内の散策に便利な立地にある。 暖房が効いているので部屋の乾燥に注意。
