Top Dongnimmun Gate Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located, helpful staff. Would recommend."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Facility was well-kept and rooms were great. Washer inside the unit was a huge plus. Hallway carpets could use cleaning as there was a noticeable odor at all times. Property is confidently located in Seoul proper, but lots of construction going on adjacent to property."

"Great hotel"

Hotel Manu Seoul Station

8/10 Good

"Great little hotel very close to the station. I’ve stayed here a couple of times because of the location. Only gripe is that each time I’ve stayed there’s been some mark on my blanket. Don’t know if the cleaners just don’t care that much. Bed is very comfy, all amenities provided, fast wifi. I just wish the housekeeping cleaned the sheets better"
