"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

Top Central Buddhist Museum Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 4 nights in ENA Suite Hotel in late October. The staff, location, cleanliness, room size were all great. The breakfast was excellent and two complimentary bottle water per day were very nice. In the negative side, there are not that much closets in the room. We will stay in the this hotel again and again, this was a great choice."

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"Fabulous location, very nice people, terrific art on walls and in adjacent museum. However, standard rooms are TINY. Fine for a single person. We are a couple and we suspected that but counted on the "guest lounge" as a place where we could get comfy chairs, talk, work on our email, read, etc. Sadly, the "lounge" is a computer and two low tables with four not-comfortable dinig style chairs in a small room with a vending machine and all hard surfaces. Would get larger room or not stay here unless the room is only for sleeping and not for relaxing."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable and clean."

Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Myeongdong and beyond (short walk to metro). We found the room very comfortable with good amenities. Very good breakfast and friendly, professional staff. Being in the centre of Myeongdong it's in an area that's pedestrianised in the evenings, so you may have to walk a short way with luggage. We hadn't realised that there is no restaurant or bar, but there plenty of eateries in the area."
