"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!"

"우선 지리적으로 지하철 쌍문역에서 가까워서 잘 찾아서 체크인이 원활했어요. 숙소 가는길에 전통시장이 있었는데 시장 분위기가 재미있었습니다. 숙소안에는 없는게 없이 준비되어 있었고 호스트님이 매우 세심하게 신경쓰는것을 느낄수 있었습니다. 가전제품도 훌륭했습니다. 특히 얼음정수기가 있어 매우 유용했어요. 그리고 관리가 잘되어 숙소가 매우 청결하고 깔끔했어요. 중간중간 계속 확인 메세지 보내셔서 필요한게 없는지 물어보셨고 매우 친절하셨습니다. 동대문,명동등 주요 관광지와도 지하철역으로 한번에 갈 수 있는 위치라 접근성도 훌륭했어요. 가성비 훌륭한 숙소라 추천드립니다."

Top Hwagyesa Temple Hotel Reviews

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Very good hotel, excellent staff, comfortable clean room. I would have given it 5 star had if they had flagged the construction site noise next door on booking site or in advance of check in. A note in room with earplugs was a bit late. Otherwise a great hotel."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location and very spacious"

ibis Ambassador Seoul Insadong (Newly renovated in 2025)

8/10 Good

"Excellent emplacement, mais chambres très petites et trop chaudes l’été Très bon hôtel pour visiter Séoul grâce à son emplacement pratique. Le déjeuner est varié et les chambres sont fonctionnelles, mais elles sont très petites, particulièrement pour trois personnes avec des valises. La salle de bain est elle aussi minuscule. Les lits simples sont de « taille asiatique »: à peu près la largeur des épaules d’une femme canadienne de 5 pi 6 po de corpulence moyenne. Le principal point négatif est la température. La chambre est autour de 23 °C au départ, mais dès que plusieurs personnes s’y trouvent, elle monte facilement à 25 °C. Les journées ensoleillées, il est pratiquement impératif de garder les rideaux fermés pour limiter la chaleur, et il n’y a pas de véritables rideaux occultants. Des ventilateurs sont disponibles, mais je choisirais un autre hôtel en plein été, particulièrement durant les périodes de chaleur accablante. À Séoul, la chaleur peut être prise très au sérieux: on voit des affiches invitant les gens à se mettre au frais pendant les canicules, et même certains palais et temples réduisent la durée des visites guidées lors des grandes chaleurs. Dans ce contexte, ne pas pouvoir réellement rafraîchir sa chambre devient un irritant important. La chambre comprend un petit espace garde-robe ouvert, un mini-frigo avec petit compartiment congélateur, et des distributeurs d’eau sont accessibles. L’hôtel offre aussi des casiers assez grands pour ranger les valises, ce"

SOO HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the Soo Hotel was great! The room was clean and quiet. The hotel was close the concert venue and there were plenty of places to eat nearby. The hotel had a popcorn and slushie machine for guests to enjoy as well as claw machines. The staff was both friendly and helpful. I recommend Soo Hotel to guests traveling to Seoul."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"I had a fantastic three night stay at this property. The executive level room was perfect - the breakfast buffet came in so handy and the food was absolutely delicious. Happy hour in the executive lounge was also so wonderful to have when I didn't have the energy to go outside and explore - and the views of the city were incredible. I really enjoyed the outdoor pool and pool deck time, although was disappointed that it wasn't integrated with the rooftop bar. They are also very strict about the time limits on the pool The gym was well appointed and I made use of it several times - excellent selection of weights and cardio machines. The room itself was incredible - blackout blinds and perfectly silent rooms made sleeping easy. The giant bathtub was such a wonderful perk and I used it as much as I could. Only a 10 minute taxi to Seoul Station and well situated to access transit routes as well. Would definitely stay here again."

Design Hotel Daniel Campanella

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are clean, the staff is helpful and kind. It’s a great spot for resting your head at night, but if you are looking for an extended stay , know that there is no laundromat on site. Apart from that, location is convenient and easy to navigate. Would return here again."

Arirang Hill Hotel Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Great location Gym is small Breakfast is not so great Staff are great Rooms are very clean"

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"One elevator from ground floor to hotel lobby on the 5 th floor was disabled. It was not quickly fixed. Very slow and with groups of people too numerous to fit in the car. So, it took 2 or 3, trips to get upstairs to the lobby. This is more a reflection on the building owner rather than the hotel. Breakfast was well worth the cost. Good selection. Food presented well. Tons of selection."

Rich Diamond Hotel

10/10 Excellent
