"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

10/10 Excellent

"We were very happy with this hotel. So hard to pick a hotel when are not familiar with the area so we were pleasantly surprised at how nice this hotel was. Clean, roomy, with fridge & tea pot. I really love that they cleaned the room daily and staff were super helpful. Definitely recommend."

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

10/10 Excellent

"The location was very convenient. The staff were very friendly and helpful."

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

8/10 Good

"It was a great location! Right in the middle of Gwanghwamoon and Jongro. Many good restaurants and great cafes to visit. The rooms are a bit outdated but was clean. A few blocks from Insadong was a plus if you'd like to shop some traditional gifts. The room was a bit outdated that it didn't have any usb ports. Since it is in the middle of many corporations/offices, there were so many restaurants with history and good food options and 24 hours Koobap places."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay in Seoul, close to everything, and great food streets close by"

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONDONG 2

10/10 Excellent

"The room was quite large for Seoul. The breakfast buffet had lots of options from cereal and yogurt for kids to quail eggs and crab salad for adults (as well as many other options). The staff was friendly and helpful."

UH Continental SeoulCenter

10/10 Excellent

"The location was excellent. The Seoul Center was our backyard! The famous shopping street was less than a 10 minute walk away. No early check in, but we were allowed to lounge in the lobby and have your luggage stored until it is check in time. We used our time to visit City Hall and explored the underground shopping mall (directly below UH Continental), as well as had lunch at the food center in Lotte Mall connected to the underground shopping mall. We booked a room that has the spa jacuzzi with 2 queen beds, a dining table with 4 chairs, 2 TVs (one at at the spa area), a vanity mirror with chair, mini refrigerator and even a microwave. The bathroom had two showers, double vanity sink, and two closets. So much floor space for a hotel room. The blackout curtains were remote-controlled and the lights in the room was controlled by a the tablet by the bedside. The beds were quite firm for my liking, but the hotel provided extra pillows that made it more comfortable for me. The breakfast was decent, and it made mornings convenient because many places don’t open until about 10am. It was raining as we were leaving, and without asking, concierge followed us out with umbrellas to our taxi. I would stay here again!"

Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Very central to everything Myegondong had to offer. The room was spacious and very quite. The coffee spot was good but could have been stocked with more coffee and sugar (l coffee and 1 sugar per person) and no milk. The hotel did not have a bar or a restaurant only a breakfast room and you could get a sandwich,cake and coffee in the afternoon. Dropping off was ok as long as it was prior to 10am but pick up was quite a way, particularly when you have mobility issues and staff only help with the luggage to the foyer."

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and clean and laundry machine"
