"お勧めはしません。夏に泊まった時、部屋に無数の虫が沸いています。ゴキブリの赤ちゃんもいました。部屋に入るまでもホテル自体に虫が多いし、匂いも厳しいです。虫が大丈夫な人なら、価格は安いので泊まるメリットはあるでしょう。立地は明洞通りなどが近くにありアクセスは非常にいいです。"

Top Seoul Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel for it's convenience, cleanness and the size of the room."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"This was the third hotel we stayed during our 2 week trip in Korea. We enjoyed here so much that we came back after our trip to Busan to stay for another 3 days. The location was perfect! It was right next to the bus stop and walking distance to the subway. There’s an Olive Young across the street, two convenient stores, and a mall close by. There are plenty of dining options as well. The staff are very warm and friendly They gave us recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed. My favorite staff was Hanji who helped check us in and made me want to rebook at Novetel for the end of our trip!"

Glad Mapo

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at the Glad Mapo hotel in Seoul. Hotel is ideally located, right next to Gongdoek station which made travelling around Seoul very easy. Room was perfect with walk in shower and plenty of space. Breakfast was good especially the Asian selection. Highly recommend a stay here, very reasonable and also easy getting to airport, local stopping train taking about an hour directly from Gongdoek station."
