Anook Hotel & Spa Seoul Jongno Anguk 2nd

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean and cozy. Bed was firm, so my night were amazing. Thanks"

Urbanstay Boutique Ikseon

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed our stay! The room was lovely, next to a wonderful area of restaurants and shopping like a 3 minute walk away, but tucked around a corner so it was completely quiet at night. The bathroom was more spacious than expected, and not having to share it (hostel style) is always a bonus. There was a private mini kitchenette too equipped with pots and pans for light cooking, as well as a washer/dryer combo. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. The location was amazing and I think for the price it's a great option for anyone looking around the ikseon area in Seoul. Super easy to use the public transit options from the hotel as well."
