They all come with bathtubs and shower booths.
The second business hotel under its portfolio is the Lotte City Hotel Gimpo Airport which started its operation on December 8, 2011, within the Lotte Mall Gimpo Airport Complex. Located in Banghwa-dong, Gangseo-gu, the property is comprised of 197 rooms housed in an 8-story building.
