I spent 10 nights at the Empire Hotel and had a great experience overall. The place was clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly, always eager to assist. It was fantastic to see that some staff members spoke English quite well, which really helped during our stay. However, being a bit further from some of the main attractions was a small downside. Still, if I return to the area, I would definitely consider staying here again.

During our 10-night stay at the Empire Hotel, we enjoyed clean and comfortable accommodations. The staff was incredibly friendly and patient with our attempts at communicating in Korean, which made us feel welcome. If we're back in the area, we would definitely choose to stay here again, although we wish there were more language proficiency among the staff for easier communication.

We had a wonderful stay at the Empire Hotel for 10 nights. The accommodation was consistently clean and comfortable, which made our time there very enjoyable. The best part was the staff; they were incredibly friendly and patient, especially with our attempts at speaking Korean. It was reassuring to have a few staff members who spoke English well, always eager to help us get around. If we're ever back in the area, we will definitely choose to stay here again!
