"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

Top Changdeokgung Palace Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Chambre propre et bon déjeuner"

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"Fabulous location, very nice people, terrific art on walls and in adjacent museum. However, standard rooms are TINY. Fine for a single person. We are a couple and we suspected that but counted on the "guest lounge" as a place where we could get comfy chairs, talk, work on our email, read, etc. Sadly, the "lounge" is a computer and two low tables with four not-comfortable dinig style chairs in a small room with a vending machine and all hard surfaces. Would get larger room or not stay here unless the room is only for sleeping and not for relaxing."

MJ HOTEL JONGNO

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room well stocked with bathroom amenities. Towels were changed daily. The complimentary self-serve breakfast was nicely varied, and friendly staff were on hand to help with the unfamiliar machines. The free to use laundry machines were a nice bonus service."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well kept, with helpful staff. I love this hotel due to its location and we had a great view of the city from our room. Would definitely stay here again."

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is very nice and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, the breakfast is great and location is convenient."

Hanok Hotel DAAM

8/10 Good

"Spotlessly clean and very conveniently located. My first time staying in a hotel like this. The bed was very comfortable and there is space under it for your suitcase which means climbing up into the bed—a little challenging after a long day of walking around. The cubby was very warm at night. The other guests were very considerate but inevitably there is some noise; I would suggest earplugs. All that being said: it was comfortable, safe, very clean, convenient and a good value. I would absolutely stay again."
