In a flashback in episode 11 of Hotel Del Luna (호텔 델루나) (tvN, 2019), this hotel appears as the former Hotel Del Luna in 1981.

— W Korea Magazine: a photo shoot for the 2020 November issue was done on Floor 1 & 3 of this hotel with actress Go Hyun-jung (고현정).

Hotel Seine [호텔세느장], opened in November 2018, is a café and bar run by design studio Glow Seoul [글로우서울] located in Seoul’s neighborhood Ikseon [Ikseon-dong/익선동] or Ikseon-dong Hanok Village [익선동 한옥마을] in the Jongno District [종로구]. To create this bar-café, an abandoned five-storey motel was revived with the concept of a ’50-year-old hotel in Eastern Europe.’

This place is in short walking distance to/from My Poetry [마이포에트리] and Com Com Play — Ikseon-dong Branch [콤콤오락실 익선동].

Ikseon as a neighborhood was selected in 2021 by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism —announced through the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO)— as one of the ‘100 Must-Visit Spots in Korea’ for 2021-2022.
