Top Jongmyo Shrine Hotel Reviews

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location for everything! 10 minutes walk from all the shops and restaurants!"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"We chose this hotel because of the proximity to the subway and Myeongdong shopping district, and also for the in room kitchen and washer/dryer. They also have a 24hr convenience store next to the lobby which we visited at least once a day to buy ready to make food, ice cream, and drinks. I LOVED the buffett breakfast which had the typical eggs, bacon, cereals, pastries but also had Asian food, seasoned vegetables(PanChan), hotpot, and fresh fruit. Adding the breakfast when we reserved the room was well worth it. The only downside was the large amount of construction around the hotel which took up most of the view from our patio. It also forces you to walk down a rundown alley to get to the subway. I would definitely stay here again for the convenience, the cleanliness, and the breakfast."

Orakai Insadong Suites

8/10 Good

"We were very pleased overall with our experience at Orakai Suites. Great central location. Close to 2 Metros, good dining options nearby, very clean and room sizes were spacious. (we had a 2 bed premium for 2 adults and 1 teenager). The reason for not giving this a 5 star rating was due to the TV channels available. Not one English language station was available for more than a 3 minute trial duration. Clearly, we didn't holiday in Seoul to watch TV, but at most high class hotels/ residences you expect to be able to access the common global news channels like BBC, CNN, Fox etc. Other non-Korean guests we spoke to had the same opinion. In future, if I was faced with a choice between Orakai Suites and another similarly priced establishment of equal quality that had the TV options, we would not choose Orakai."

ibis Ambassador Seoul Insadong (Newly renovated in 2025)

10/10 Excellent

"Surpassed expectations! Great value and location. I was initially hesitant to stay at an Ibis due to a past bad experience in Europe, but I decided to give this location a chance since it was recently renovated. I was pleasantly surprised! The hotel was great—clean, modern rooms and very friendly staff. A major bonus was that the room was cleaned daily at no extra charge, which feels increasingly rare in Europe these days. The location is excellent, with plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance. You can also easily walk to Myeongdong or Changdeokgung Palace in about 20 to 30 minutes. My only minor feedback is regarding the bathroom: while clean and mold-free, it could use a modern update to match the rest of the room. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel for its price, quality, and location!"

Hotel Kukdo

10/10 Excellent

"Everyone at the front desk, the housekeeping team, and all the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. They made us feel comfortable from the moment we arrived, and their warm hospitality made our stay truly enjoyable. We had a wonderful experience and left with great memories. Thank you to everyone for making our stay so pleasant!"
