"By yourself check in/out so easy no waiting, Rooms are small for 4 suitcases but oké, a closet would be a major upgrade because you don’t have to live out your suitcase. Great location 5 min walk from metro and 10 min from citycenter ( foodstreet ) Price for the room is great so, it is no luxury hotel but for this price, clean quiet, bed are great what do you need more ??I would come here again next trip if it is availible !"

Top Statue of Sejong the Great Hotel Reviews

The Prima Hotel Jongno

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for about 7 nights at the prima hotel and it was amazing!!! There was wifi, AC, a mini fridge and a TV for entertainment. The rooms were very clean and the service was amazing as the staff were all very kind. The cleaning staff were very sweet and would greet us whenever they saw us haha. Fresh towels were always provided whenever the room was cleaned and as we opted for the breakfast, we found it decent enough and the fries were really good LOL! I would definitely stay here again as there were no faults! Location was very convenient as well since it’s a 20 minute walk from the LOTTE dept mall and the main streets of Myeongdong. Also very close to the main subway line as well. 100/10 would recommend!"
