"I really appreciated this hotels higher level of communication. From an email and also a message in the Hotels.com app about being able to register through the kiosk and also communicate with them via WhatsApp. There was a request to refill the body wash, which was promptly done, although I think it’s meant for couples because we had a place that had two beds. It was very comfortable for three adults to stay in and share one bathroom AC was strong. I really appreciated the complementary bottles...

Top Hwagyesa Temple Hotel Reviews

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Great location"

ibis Ambassador Seoul Insadong (Newly renovated in 2025)

10/10 Excellent

"Great area, close to many attractions. Room was clean."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Quick check in. Welcoming staff. Breakfast catered for all dietary requirements and lots of variety. Don't be late as closure is very punctual 0700-1000. Laundry is very useful 24hrs. Small wash takes 36 mins and dryer takes 45 mins. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Metro is a 3 min walk to entrance but prepare for an additional 5 min walk to line 3 and 6. Down town Myeongdong is only a 10 min walk away. Hotel is ideally located. There's a 24hr 711 on the ground/1st floor. The superior Twin room is very spacious. Big single beds. Could do with more space to place a second suitcase. The TV is enormous but limited for choice of English channels. City view room is great. We were on the 16th floor and could hear very little noise from traffic below. The self service luggage storage room was very useful for our late flight. Overall a fantastic stay and looking forward to staying again soon."

Orakai Daehakro Hotel, BW Signature Collection

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay! Our room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. Every staff member we met was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The breakfast buffet was excellent, with a wide variety of delicious options that everyone in our family enjoyed. We highly recommend this hotel and would happily stay here again!"

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice area and right to the Gyeongbokgung palace and temple! Nice staff and great environment. Only downside was that the hallway where my room was humid and the carpet was lifting in some areas. Besides that, the room, view, staff, food, and environment were amazing!! Thank you!! ❤️❤️"

Design Hotel Daniel Campanella

8/10 Good

"I’ll start with the few negatives which is just that the mattress was a little too firm and the fact that the toilet/shower were within such close proximity kinda threw me for a loop. But other than that the stay was amazing! Staff were all super friendly and nice, room was kept very clean throughout the entirety of the stay. They even let us borrow umbrellas for the whole time we were there cause we weren’t prepared lol. Overall an awesome place!"

Lua Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This is an unmanned hotel, but property is very quick to answer messages. Rooms are small but comfortable and include a refrigerator. Microwave is available in lobby. There are 19 rooms - 5 floors, but no elevator. "

Nostalgia Hanok Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"À vivre comme expérience au moins une fois. Superbe endroit, bien situé, paisible, dépaysant et le personnel est accueillant et offre un service exceptionnel. Ma fille et moi avons adoré et on aurait aimé rester plus longtemps malheureusement c’était la fin de notre voyage… on reviendra sans hésiter!"

Arirang Hill Hotel Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent
