LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG
10/10 Excellent
"close to attractions."
Lotte Hotel Seoul
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at Lotte Hotel Seoul. The location is outstanding, right in the heart of Myeongdong and within easy walking distance of attractions such as Myeongdong Cathedral, Deoksugung Palace, and Cheonggyecheon. The hotel’s proximity to shopping, restaurants, and sightseeing made exploring Seoul incredibly convenient. A special thank you to the concierge team, who helped arrange a facial and head spa experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. We also appreciated the variety of excellent dining options within the hotel and found ourselves eating there frequently for both convenience and quality. The service throughout our stay was exceptional. The staff were professional, helpful, and attentive, making us feel welcome from start to finish. While the hotel is centrally located, neighborhoods such as Gangnam and Itaewon are also just a short taxi ride away. Overall, an excellent hotel in a prime location. We would gladly stay here again on our next visit to Seoul. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station
10/10 Excellent
"The room was immaculate. The beds were so comfortable and the amenities were top-notch. Location was excellent too. You step out the front door and the subway station was right there. They also looked after my luggage after check-out because I had a night flight. Will definitely return here on my next trip."

"The gym is the best I’ve found in a hotel in Seoul. Proper squat rack if not a hexbar Completely ridiculous that you’re paying that price and you go downstairs and they tell you you can’t get a set at the buffet. Big red flag. The buffet is amazing. Their system is wack"
