"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...

"10/10! A very clean and comfortable stay. Staff were helpful and replied to messages promptly. The area of the hostel is far enough from city centre to be peaceful and quiet, but also convenient enough to commute to Myeongdong within 40 minutes via train, with bus stops nearby too. There was an airport limousine bus that travels directly to Incheon international airport. Convenient stores were also close to the property. Would recommend to solo travellers!"

Top Hwagyesa Temple Hotel Reviews

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

8/10 Good

"I wish I had more time here. The hotel is located right off the main insadong road. It’s very convenient if it is the main purpose of your trip. It seems like a new building since I have been to this area multiple times and this is the first time I have seen it. Booked a room with a free mini bar which was a plus. This is the first hotel that asked for a card for a deposit in South Korea but I get it since it is a popular tourist area. The bag lockers were convenient. Overall, I would stay here again depending on the price. I personally like to stay a little further from main insadong street and walking there instead of staying right on the street. But that’s a personal preference."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms, services, and amenities were all good."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"The cleaner for our stay at floor 22 was amazing. She's very hardworking and ensures that our room stays clean. We stayed in Lotte City Hotel from September 2 to September 6."

Rich Diamond Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great clean place to stay. Worth the money."

Arirang Hill Hotel Dongdaemun

8/10 Good

"It’s very well positioned. It’s undeniable. However, I found some inconsistencies with the daily cleaning process (sometimes the bathroom was properly clean, sometimes it wasn’t), But it’s a good hotel, and food can be accessed within the area also. I liked the cafe below."

Friendly DH Naissance Hotel by Mindrum Group

10/10 Excellent

"It’s really good and convenient,the staffs are friendly and helpful!we love to stay here"

Toyoko Inn Seoul Dongdaemun No.2

10/10 Excellent

"That was my another Toyoko stay. Compare to others that was not the best. Breakfast was OK but the room was not clean, hair was everywhere. Bed was comfortable, bigger then other hotels offered."

SOO HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is great, and it's in a nice location with plenty of good food around."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

8/10 Good

"It was a good experience overall but there were some inconsistencies from housekeeper. They took our bathrobes and never gave us replacements right after the first and second day of our stay. They also didnt provide trash bags for the garbages in the bathroom and kitchen except for the first time which feels strange for a 5 star hotel but overall, I am thankful for the job they did helping us clean up the room and there were no other qualms besides that. The washer dryer combo was terrible though and I do not recommend using it unless you plan on being there when it finishes because your clothes will just be a soaking wet mess after the “dry cycle.”"
