Location
We lucked out on the hotel's location as it is literally about 5 steps away from the Myeongdong subway station (take exit 9). If you're visiting the city for the first time, you'd want to be near the train station so you can easily move about.
The hotel is also a few steps away from the famed Myeongdong shopping street.
There's also an Aritaum that's connected to the hotel lobby to jumpstart your shopping adventure.
Finally, the airport shuttle bus stop is also a few steps to the right of the hotel. This saved us a lot of money and unnecessary stress trying to get to the airport.
Check In / Out
We arrived at around dinner time so the front desk located on the third floor was not busy. Checking out was pretty efficient as well.

Room Size
The room size was a little small so we were surprised to see a tub in the bathroom. Great use of space and is perfect for a hot soak after a tiring day. We also liked that they have a heated toilet seat.
The room also has a small window that you can actually open if you want to get a breeze of the cool air outside.

There's a sufficient number of ports and usb charging outlets as well.
I also particularly liked the magnetic instructions that you stick outside your door.
Hotel Amenities
We loved how modern the feel of the hotel is with the muted colors and the stark yellow contrast throughout the entire hotel.
The hotel has a rooftop bar and what makes the bar unique is that they have a foot spa. The really cold air, cold drinks, amazing views and a hot foot spa are a combination that's certainly unique and heavenly.
The hotel also has a laundry area that we used so we get back home with clean clothes.
They also have an ATM shop, essentially vendo machines selling all kinds of souvenir items, snacks and cute items located on the 4th floor.
They also offer tours within the area via their yellow tuk-tuk. Details and rates are available on the hotel's website (link below).
There's also a business center right by the front desk.

Breakfast
Breakfast is served at the gorgeous Villa de Chalotte on the 2nd floor. I took pictures of the restaurant without realizing that I forgot my camera didn't have a memory card that day, so sadly, I'm not able to share any photos here. They have a decent selection, not a lot, enough to get you going. They don't change the menu so we ended up skipping breakfast for a couple of days. Paris Baguette is next door and Angel-In-Us Coffee so don't fret.

Staff Courtesy
Their staff speaks good English so we had no issues trying to communicate with them. Everyone was very helpful from the hotel staff on the ground floor who has a welcoming smile and goes out of his way to press the elevator button for the guests to the front desk staff who bid us a very nice farewell down to their housekeeper who was very cheerful. They also make up your rooms early in the morning. We'd go down for breakfast and get back to an already made-up room.

If you're visiting Incheon and you intend to explore the city and shop, L7 Hotel Myeongdong is the perfect hotel for you. Room rates are reasonable, location is perfect, amenities are up to par, and service is excellent.
