Find Luce Bridge Hotel (Luce Bridge Hotel) room rate falls between 1,700~2,500 (tax excluded), the price is very close to the people, originally wanted to choose the largest executive suite to stay, but after considering the number of occupants, I switched to book the corner suite corner suite, space It is also spacious enough to hold two suitcases and strollers.The furnishings in the room are simple but complete, including electronic stoves, washing machines, cups and plates. If you have a baby, there is no problem with preparing non-staple food or cooking light meals, but everything is convenient for traveling to Seoul. Most of us buy out food.

During our stay, we encountered a group of Thai tourists, mostly students on graduation trips. The hotel rooms are spread out across the floors, and since ours was on the edge, the soundproofing wasn't a big issue, so we didn't encounter any loud noises. We were planning to give Hamburger a shower before bed, but the shower felt a bit small, making it difficult for an adult and child to squeeze in together. Fortunately, the shower only lasted 20 minutes, and the space was adequate for the adults. I think the room was spacious and comfortable; after all, it was the main activity area, making it easier to pack. (🔎 Booking prices and accommodation reviews:agoda|booking.com|Trip|klook)

Overall review: Convenient and cost-effective apartment-style accommodation

When I entered the hotel lobby, there was a pungent decoration smell. The first floor was under renovation, but the smell was even smelt between floors. Fortunately, there is no such problem in the room, otherwise I will check out immediately...change the hotel!I remember Wendy asked me "Are you sure it's a newly opened hotel?" Because I saw some bumps and scratches, the Luxqiao Hotel opened in 2017. I didn't expect it to be nearly a year or two or so. Equipment maintenance is somewhat unsatisfactory.

But thinking about it from another point of view, there is a price of two to three thousand yuan a night, and complete accommodation facilities are provided. It seems that the usual "CP value" is very reasonable. The airport bus is direct, close to the subway station, and there are supermarkets and restaurants around. There is no reason not to recommend it to petty-bourgeois readers. In the past six months, the reputation of members on the booking website is okay. If you are interested in traveling to Seoul, you may consider this hotel.
