Outside the viewing deck of the korean dimilitarized zone one winter noon. This view is eerily calm.

8/10 Very Good! (1,409 reviews)

We’ve been a repeat guests for Sejong. Really appreciate the hotel’s cleanliness and amenities. The room was clean, even housekeeping did a good job when we requested for our bed to be made. The only thing that didn’t change is the worker’s union protest, that seems on-going even before covid. Fortunately, they didn’t bother hotel guests but get a bit crowded when the protest at the lobby though.

It was tiny, but clean and close to food and transportation. Breakfast was mainly cold cereal. There were many fights of stairs without an elevator.
