Spent 4 nights here back in August and was quite satisfied. I was not expecting much. A bit like a Days Inn that needs a refurbish, but everything was clean and orderly. Nice modern TV with access to foreign channels such as CNN. Comfortable but basic bathroom. There was a small balcony attached to the bedroom but the door was... More

Everything worked well, big room with balcony, amazing location for running along the river in the morning....waving and smiling to fishermen, people exercising, running, reading in the early morning light. Beautiful! Good choices for breakfast (included), though Korean set menu beats the European one by a mile. And....BRIGHT pink building stands out.

Very comfortable hotel by the standards of the country. One can find fault with the carpet on the stairs or criticize the décor of the dining room, but that is missing the forest for the trees.

Very clean room but of a Chinese 3 star standard. Cable TV includes CNN, AlJazeera, StarWorld, NHK and the enlightening local channels. Excellent and cheap laundry services. Very good restaurant with excellent service. Very unusual place to say the least.

I will give you more details later. But besides Korio Hotel this is a place to go to if you go to Pyongyang. A night there will cost you around 100$.
