Royal Emporium Incheon Airport Hotel

Booked this hotel for a single night as I had an 18 hour layover in Incheon airport. It is the perfect hotel airport. 20 min car ride from Incheon International, and they offer free shuttles to and from the airport. The room is comfy with nice beds, hot showers and a 24 hour convenience mart within the basement level of the hotel, no need to even leave. My only gripe is that the walls are rather thin so you are woken up easily by people next door. But even so for the price and convenience I recommend Royal Emporium Hotel for anyone needed a quick layover stay in Incheon.

Didn't stay long enough to really know much. Lots of Chinese tourists. Great breakfast buffet. But I am comparing it to reg. Old fashioned American hotel breakfast.

This review is for room 601 (we booked 2 rooms for 261800₩, that is 32725₩ per person per night). This hotel is easy to find and basically has everything you need in a walking distance. There's E-mart in the basement, bhc chicken and a bakery on the first floor, and lots of restaurants and cafés in a short distance. The ferry to Wolmido is also super close. The room is what we expected. Simple, slightly outdated design. The room had a view of a parking lot, which did not bother us, as we spent very little time in the room. The overall cleanliness was not the best. There were stains on the walls and ceiling, which I think I had already seen in someone's review from half a year ago. The carpet also seen better days. At least the beds were comfy. When we visited, the AC was still set to heating, so our only option to get some fresh air in was to open the window. Unfortunately, there was no bug net on it, and we had to switch off the lights, or else our room would be full of mosquitoes. The ventilation in the shower was so loud. It sounded as if you were stuck in a turbine. Especially when standing in the shower. The fan could also use cleaning. There was a strip of black mold around the outer edge. In front of the elevator is a sign saying (in 3 different languages) that the maximum number of people that can board is 6. But no one ever followed this rule. It was unnerving having people laugh at the screen saying "heavy". Like, girl, we could go down any minute now. Why are you laughing? Smh, some people...
