Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Detailed Reviews
This was my friends and I first time back in Korea after almost a decade. We chose GLAD COEX in Gangnam because of the location and ambience of it. It is very easy to find as it is right next to the samseong station and nearby the coex mall. The receptionist I believe his name was Leo! was very accommodating and understanding of the language barrier we had. The interior is very modern and clean and the front desk people wear Hawaiian shirts which I thought was a unique and fun twist from their interior design. Our views were amazing and the amenities provided were very nice as well. One plus I will mention is the currency exchange machine located in the lobby which was a lifesaver for my friends and I because the rates at other places can be a bit high. Overall I recommend this hotel for those who want a nice place to relax after a long day of exploring.

A very good hotel, with a very good location and convenient transportation. It is just above Samseong Station, which is very suitable for traveling in winter without being blown by the wind. The environment is clean. Judy is very nice and friendly, and provides very good service. The lobby smells good, and the staff are working with a very enthusiastic attitude and smile, which makes people feel very happy. The size of the room is also very suitable, and the items provided are also very complete. If you want to dine or travel nearby, I think it is very suitable. Especially because there is a subway station within 50 meters of the hotel. After all, the subway is one of the main means of transportation, which is very good.

The location is right beside Park Hyatt Hotel, which is in front of Samseoung Station 1 subway and COEX Mall is at Samseoung Station 6 subway exit. So yes, it is near COEX. Very convenient. The rooms are quite small but very clean and functional. The beds, pillows, linens are very comfortable. I would say it is a trendy hotel. The price point is quite reasonable.

This was my first time visiting Gangnam Glad COEX branch.
I booked a standard double room, but the room was larger than I expected, so the two of us stayed comfortably. The staff were very friendly, and Leo helped us with self-check-in. As standard, two bottles of mineral water are provided in the refrigerator, which was nice because it was cooler than other hotels. It was convenient to self-check in using a separate text message from the hotel. Toothpaste and toothbrushes are not provided and are sold separately. If you want to bring it with you, you can bring it separately. However, the window is small, so it blocks the view a bit, but on the other hand, if you close the curtains slightly, it provides good privacy. You can use OTT services with a smart TV, but it would be good to know that you must log in to your personal account. The night view of Olympic Boulevard was impressive!
These days, it is difficult to make a reservation at a low price in Seoul even on weekdays, but Glad Gangnam was highly satisfactory for the price.

These days, I'm worried a lot about bed bugs, but I heard the news that GLAD is well managed, so I chose to come here without hesitation. The location is close to COEX and Hyundai Department Store, so needless to say, it's also the best because there are a variety of good restaurants. There are many banks nearby, so I think it's the best. It's the best location for activities, and it's right in front of the subway, so it's easy to move around. The room is smartly arranged with storage space and bath shampoo is also provided, so I use it often when traveling on business, and I'm very satisfied. This time, a charger was also placed, so I used it usefully.

This is my first time at Gangnam Glad. I came with three friends, and as expected, the jumbo twin was really great. The bedding was clean and the room condition was good. Both coffee and tea were coffee bean products. A wine opener is also provided in the room, and there is a wine shop on the first floor. I had a happy time with friends as they also provided wine glasses at the front desk. Disposable toothbrushes are provided upon request at the front desk. I think I will use it again next time. I had a great time with three friends.

The location right outside of Samseong station is superb. It's perfect if you plan on spending time at COEX for a conference or shopping. The room is small but the space is efficiently used and even had a decent view. The bed was comfortable and room was very clean. The rate was very reasonable compared to similar hotels nearby. Parking was also reasonable at only 5000 won (for the valet) when most Seoul hotels charge a ton or don't provide parking. While professional, the staff didn't give off the warmest vibe. My only complaint was the lack of flexibility with check in. They did not start check in until 3pm on the dot despite the small lobby being packed with people. There was hardly any room to stand. With people paranoid about social distancing I thought they could've checked some people in a bit earlier. None of the staff looked particularly busy and were just waiting awkwardly until 3pm. After check-in began there was a mad rush for the three (very slow) elevators which caused more congestion.

Make a reservation in advance for a reasonable price of 160,000 won on Saturdays and Sundays.
I stayed here and it was right in front of COEX, so public transportation was good and the hotel was nice and clean.
However, there is some noise at night due to construction at Samsung Station.
The valet fee is 10,000 won.

Andy was kind and grateful. It was a nice room with fluffy bedding and a view of the Han River. The bathroom was clean, and even though we went considering that the room was small, it was enough for two people. It was clean and had just the necessities. Toothpaste and toothbrushes had to be purchased separately when checking in. It costs 5,000 won for two. The toothpaste looks like a round pill. If it foams when you chew it, you can brush it with a bamboo toothbrush. It comes with 3 tablet toothpastes. It would be a good idea to prepare them in advance.

it’s 6006 bus line, going down samsung station and walk around 5-8mins to glad gangnam coex
Tax refund is only available if you pay directly to the hotel.
Yes, use the KAL Limousine service. It costs about £11 which is good value and stops at the Intercontinental hotel (Grand Seoul Parma’s not Coex). The hotel is the other side of the intersection (5 minutes walk).
Welcome to GLAD! Thank you for your inquiry.
1. Breakfast is the buffet and it is served between 06:30 and 10:00 a.m.
2. There is no toothbrush in the room, but you can buy it at the front desk. (GLAD Hotel does not offer free a disposable items to protect the environment.)
Have a GLAD day! Thank you.
