Top Insa-dong Hotel Reviews

Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong is a fantastic choice if you want to stay in the heart of downtown Seoul. The lobby is located on the 21st floor, and my room was on the 18th floor with a wonderful view. They also provide a great selection of room amenities. The only minor downside is that taxis cannot pick you up or drop you off directly in front of the hotel, as it’s located in a pedestrian-only zone where cars aren't allowed from 10:00 AM to 10:00 PM. However, that’s also a huge plus—you’re just a few steps away from all the energy and excitement of Myeongdong without any traffic noise!"
