Top Insa-dong Hotel Reviews

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"Decent location - about a 10 minute walk from the Palace and a temple across the street to visit, food and beverage locations nearby, Insadong was nice. But can't give a 5 star review due to the following complaints: -View was terrible, literally looking at the side of building. Even a street view would have been nice. Asked to change and they said they couldn't move us as I guess they were busy, not really there for the view so not a huge deal. -Shower has a glass wall facing the beds, it is see through enough that it isn't really comfortable for all to use. Also to climb in to the shower you have to step over a 2 ft high side to the bathtub and back out - terrible design all in all and anyone with even minor accessibility issues would find it hard to use. -Bathroom also has a sliding door so instead of having the toilet paper in a usable location, you have to reach way behind you - it's a minor thing but just not something you'd expect for what you pay. -Cleaning staff were kind and helpful and did a great job each day Would probably stay in Myeondong if we go back to Seoul as the night markets and street markets are there and it is much more happening."

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"I like the location, step out of the building and you are already surrounded by the many food stalls.and shops. Olive young is just beside the building. Massage facial, and hair care inside the building. Bus is 5 -7mins walk but UBER cost only 9$ for a 20- 30 mins ride, staff are very helpful. The bathroom is together with the toilet but its still bidet. Bed is hard but acceptable. Over all very good"

8/10 Good

"El de recepción muy atento y está aprendiendo español, la habitación bien pero muy pequeña y el baño super pequeño"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Very nice and friendly staff. They all lead with speaking English. A lot of non Koreans there. Reasonably priced buffet breakfast for a good spread. Gym is tiny - one chest press, dumbbells, two treadmills, water bubbler. Rooms relatively small but nicely furnished. Best water pressure in shower. Would recommend but on the pricier side"
