Top Donghwa-dong Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in a great location near two subways, about 4 - 5 min walk away. The gym and the 24 hour convenience store within the hotel are very good. Check in was easy as well as check out. Room was very clean, great to have a washing machine, drying rack and also a steaming refreshing closest which is so handy and easy to use. Would stay here again!"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located within Seoul in Myeongdong, but just outside (essentially one block removed) of all the action so it is much more quieter and a significant positive for me. Staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast buffet was outstanding. Highly recommend having the buffet at least once on your visit. Hotel is conveniently located next to the subway so it is extremely easy and accessible to get around every major neighborhood. It is also walking distance to Seoul Station, but I would recommend taking a cab/taxi/Uber for convenience as the area is generally within a major node for traffic."
