Top Daehak-dong Hotel Reviews

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"The Shilla Soedaemun is at the highest end of budget and none the worse for that. Breakfast is pretty good with Western and Korean options. Room are a little on the small side but quite serviceable - we found there was ample room for two. The metro station outside gives good access to Seoul’s sights, but the hotel is 20 minutes walk away from Seoul Station and there is no easy metro connection - it took us 55 minutes on the metro, most of which was spent walking from one line to another . The hotel’s “Seoul staton” monicker is very misleading"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Room was clean and cleaning staffs were very good and friendly. We stayed in delux twin suite. It was spacious. Air conditioning was very good but ac shuts down when you leave the room and it would take a while to cool when we returned to the room. I wish rooms and toilet had actual doors for privacy. Another con was that all the restaurants were pretty much 7+min walk, most around 15min walk. Although on the map stations look very close, Walk to line 2 was about 10 min to platform and line 3 was 3 flights of stairs to platform."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel in a great location! There are plenty of public transportation options nearby, including an airport limousine bus. The hotel was clean, and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. A big advantage for me was the coin-operated washing machines. There are lots of cafés and restaurants in the area, yet the hotel itself is in a very quiet and peaceful location. I also loved the little touch of receiving a face mask every morning such a nice surprise! I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend this hotel."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"We are a family of 4 who spent a week in Seoul, touring the city and its nearby sites. Novotel met all our needs for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The hotel is closed to a subway and a night market around the corner, so it's very convenient to get from one place to another. Breakfast was buffet-style, serving varying Asian/Western options. The soup noodle was my favorite. Thanks Novotel for making our stay in Seoul so enjoyable, will definitely book with you whenever we are back in Seoul."
