Top Insa-dong Hotel Reviews

N285 Hotel Insadong

10/10 Excellent

"My stay was amazing! Clean, amazing staff and shops nearby"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"The property itself was fine but compared with the other places we stayed, it felt overpriced and quite small for what we paid. For my next trip to Korea, I would likely choose one of the other properties we stayed at instead."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"The room was compact but if you’ve stayed at one of their hotels before, you’ll know the rooms are well layed out to maximise the space. I had a north facing room with a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hotel had a convenience store next door and a stone throw away from Namdaemun market. Very handy that the viral Hotteok shop (outside the IBK bank) is only 3min away and 10min walk to the main Myeongdong shopping area. It was really convenient taking the bus from the airport to the hotel, stops at the Main Street and a short walk to the hotel. Overall the location was super convenient, close to City Hall station and walking distance to a lot of places of interest."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Los ascensores fueron una pesadilla a toda hora, no había momento en que no haya que esperar demasiado para subir o bajar"

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed in line friends room, not really sure how clean the stuffed animals and ball pit were."

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"This is a budget hotel, but it provided everything we needed. Great location and the staff were super helpful. Breakfast was okay, but then again this is a budget hotel. Only problem is that the bed was hard for us. Staff are more than eager to help and spoke English very well."

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were always clean and staff was friendly and helpful!"

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

10/10 Excellent

"Best hotel gym I’ve ever seen. Perfectly located in a hopping place, yet secluded enough to not walk out into mayhem. Really cool pool. Most helpful staff. Loved staying here"

Stanford Hotel Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Property is clean and walking distance to everything especially shopping and foods!!"
