HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms and bathrooms are large and clean. The breakfast has a wide variety of food options. Lots of restaurants around the hotel. I would highly recommend staying at this hotel."

The Prima Hotel Jongno

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at a great location! Staff was very nice and helpful. We came as a group of 4 families with young children and a baby and they were able to accommodate us all staying on the same floor. Rooms were nice and spacious. Laundry services and free water and vending machines and gym available."

Grand Hyatt Seoul

8/10 Good

"Excellent hotel. It is 15 minutes up and down a steep hill to the nearest subway so we mostly used Ubers although they are relatively cheap. There’s a huge bar area as you walk into the hotel but no real lobby so you either have to order food or drinks but nowhere really to just sit and chat and chill which I think is a shame for a property of this scale"
