"You cannot get dropped off by taxi in front of the hanok. You will have to take your suitcases down a couple alleys. The front door is an electric lock, the the individual rooms have a three number passcode on the outside and the "lock" for the inside is a spoon and door handle. Would work fine if it was group using all three rooms, but wouldn't recomend unless your prepped with extra security. Was very clean. Small fridge and sink which was nice. Tinier than I originally expected but worked...

Top Dongdaemun Market Mall Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed as a family of four (2 adults, 2 kids aged 9 and 16 years) in a 2 bed suite, for 3 nights in July 2026. We found the hotel easy to access, super clean and friendly staff. The room was on the 20th floor with a Namsan View - looking towards the Namsan Seoul Tower. It was spotless, modern, spacious and very comfortable. The room was well equipped with a kitchenette, fridge and microwave, plus a washing machine, dryer and clothing care cabinet. Laundry detergent sachets were available to buy from reception, cheaply. The only drawback was limited crockery and cutlery for the size of the room. The location was great. Close enough to walk to Cheonggyecheon stream (1-min!), Gwangjang Market, Myeongdong and night market, However far enough away to escape the crowds and constant hustle and bustle. When we didn't feel like walking, it is really close to at least 3 underground stations (Euljiro 3-ga, Euljiro 4-ga and Jongno 3-ga). There is a roof terrace which is great to view Seoul in the evening and a small supermarket outside reception which was well stocked. We didn't use the wider hotel facilities such as the games room or screening room. The staff were friendly and helpful, organising a taxi for us to the airport."

Dongdaemun Stay Garden

10/10 Excellent

Star Hostel Dongdaemun Suite

8/10 Good

"In a good location, decent amenities"

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was perfectly located for what we planned to do. It is a popular hotel so we got picked form here for our DMZ tour and really close to the famous markets for our food tour. The breakfast was EXCELLENT! We have been travelling and so far this has been the best for choice. I would definitely stay here again."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"This was a perfectly located hotel. Airport bus stop and lift to metro lines literally at door. Lovely, comfortable big rooms and enjoyed the pyjamas & bathroom. Staff polite and attentive with any query. Would certainly stay here again if in Seoul."

Uljiro Co-Op Residence

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Unbelievably wonderful, polite, respectful and professional team right from the start of our stay till the last moment. Truly appreciated the warm welcome by Sophie and reception (really kind and professional individual). Also the early check in was really helpful and we really appreciated it, around our plans on the day. The level and quality of the facilities were exquisite; particularly the swimming pool and sauna facilities. The gentleman at the restaurant on the 2nd floor by the name of Justin was so professional and friendly. Equally the gentleman at the front door by the name of David, kindly helped us with every single one of our luggage and put them inside the taxi. We really were treated like VIP. Thanks a million to each and every individual for making our stay truly exceptional; we sure will come back again in the future. I’d highly recommend this hotel to whoever is visiting Seoul."

The Summit Hotel Seoul Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Fair sized room. Has a mini fridge and kettle but no microwave. Good location, close to DDP and several malls."

Travelodge Dongdaemun Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the Travelodge Dongdaemun! The location is ideal—it’s centrally situated, so you’re never far from the Dongdaemun Market, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and all the downtown sights. Plus, being close to several subway lines made getting anywhere in Seoul super easy. The room was basic, but it was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. After being outside in the heat and humidity all day, coming back to a room with great, individually controlled air conditioning was a lifesaver for a peaceful night's sleep. The front desk staff was also very helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend if you want a clean, convenient base for exploring Seoul!"
