Hmm, I'll find out for you... We booked it as a package on Expedia with the flights... I've just done a quick search on Expedia and for two people flying from the UK and staying 10 nights in August at the Sheraton it's pretty much spot on £1500... £750 each and 10 days at such a lovely hotel is a complete bargain! You'll get it a lot cheaper if you book it with the flights on Expedia than if you go direct to the hotel for room bookings ![Smiley :)](https://www.susans.org/Smileys/susans/smiley.gif)
You'll love it there though! ![Smiley :)](https://www.susans.org/Smileys/susans/smiley.gif)
Livvykins,
You seems to have been lucky to find the hotel. The area (guro-gu) was once occupied by apparel and semi-conductor plants, but recently changed to a digital-industry center. It is not an area for tourism or shopping.
I guess the price is relatively inexpensive, because it is not located in the downtown areas of Seoul. Artnouveau City is located in Gangnam, the most expensive area in Korea. In Gangnam, you need to pay at least USD 100 per night, and even USD 300 for hotels like Sheraton. The Princess hotel is also located in the downtown of Seoul, although it is relatively less expensive than Gangnam.
If you prefer accessibility, the hotels in downtown area are fine, although they are not so much comfortable. I think the Sheraton is a nice option if anybody is willing to study Seoul metro network, and can enjoy a half or one hour transportation by the train or taxi.
