It is conveniently located near tourist attractions such as Ikseon-dong, Insa-dong, and Changdeokgung Palace. Capsule coffee and cup noodles are available for free. Washing machine and dryer were also shared. And the owner is very kind! Prosper your business.
The hotel has complete facilities, there are separate toilets for bathing, shower gel shampoo, but no disposable toothbrushes and slippers. The slippers provided are not disposable. It is recommended to bring your own cups. Negative one has breakfast very intimate, milk juice slices bread eggs, Western breakfast is relatively simple. There are many restaurants nearby, the transportation is very convenient, many attractions can be walked, it is close to the Anguo Road subway station, and the distance from another subway station is also accepted. The only downside was that the sheets were not changed, and there was hair on the bed.

A very cozy hostel in the very heart of one of Seoul’s most popular central areas. The beds are comfy, all amenities are there. But for me personally it’s not the best when the staff is only present at certain times of day for a short time, so it’s a great stay for independent individuals. Even though when the staff was present, they were super friendly and helpful! I especially loved the terrace, it’s just amazing and very beautiful.

To be honest, it was okay, except that the front desk asked me to pay some extra fees when I checked in. Otherwise, I would have to check out and change rooms at the normal time the next day... But the attitude of the front desk guy was okay. The hotel is not very hidden. You can see it by turning into a small alley on the main road. There are also many bus stops, convenience stores, and airport bus terminals nearby, all within a two-minute walk. Yes, the hotel is in Dongdaemun District, but it takes about 25 minutes by bus to get to the actual Dongdaemun.
The bed in the room is big, and the hygiene and space are okay, but I have to say that you get what you pay for. First of all, the air conditioner cannot be controlled remotely. It is probably a central air conditioner. There is only one plug at the bedside. Although there is a charging cable, it can be charged very well. Slow; there is no desk lamp, only a very weird red night light; the toilet is a bathtub, but there is no curtain, and the water pressure of the shower head is very high and cannot be fixed at all, so you have to hold it by hand or turn the water down; it is a bit inconvenient What I endured was the windows, two push-open windows but no! through! Light! There was no natural light coming into the room at all... It rained on the day we arrived, and it was humid in the room with the windows open. It was very dark in the room without the windows.
There is no need to swipe a card in the hotel elevator, anyone can get up, which seems to be a hidden danger, but it is convenient for door-to-door takeout~
In short, if you have a small travel budget, you can stay here. After all, you can sleep well. But if you have a little bit of pursuit of hotel quality, I’d better advise you to leave, haha.
Hotel is right behind metro station on Insadong street - a lot of restaurants and cafe in the area. Staff was helpful. Room clean up everyday. Free 12 hrs luggage storage after checkout. Would come back again.

I really wanted to enjoy Hotel Cappuccino, they have a great location, accessible to pets, and a hip interior.
But my 6day stay at this place was ruined one afternoon when I brought back my lunch to my room but couldn’t eat in my room because it was being cleaned. No big deal, I went to the downstairs cafe and started eating there, but the staff kicked me out because it was for guests who wanted to eat at the cafe. Honestly, there were plenty of tables and it’s not like I was taking away business but they fiercely insisted that it was bad for their cafe business.
I asked the front desk if there was a communal kitchen or any space for guests to simply enjoy a meal but they apologized for not having this, and encouraged me to wait 30mins until housekeeping was done with my room.
Would I recommend this to any tourist? Only if you’re ok with small spaces and mediocre customer service.
Also, their bidets provide enemas! Woohoo!

Central location, decent cleanliness. Just a note to all, air con will not be on during winter. They do provide a fan (when requested) and you can open the windows to cool the room down. Doesn’t bother us but for others to take note.

”While searching for accommodation near Gongdeok Station, I mistakenly booked a budget-friendly place and ended up staying for a night.
In conclusion, I think there's no hotel that matches this price range.
What could be more important than warmth in the cold winter? The room I stayed in had a cozy ondol (underfloor heating).
Additionally, warm water flowed generously during showers.
Considering the price, I believe it's unfair to compare other aspects with 4-5 star hotels.
I definitely have the intention to stay again next time.”
So, I went back and forth between a four and five. We stayed for four nights in a Signiel Premier Double room mainly to have access to the executive lounge which in other high-end hotels is generally pretty spectacular. Here, it's pretty useless consisting of mostly cookies and crackers for both morning and evening services. That being said, you stay here for the novelty of it and for the view. The view lived up to its billing and the room was clean, quiet and comfortable. Outside of the thirty minute plus check in, the service was exceptional and friendly which bumped it to a five. I'm not sure why the Executive Lounge is so terrible. Seems nonsensical and I must be missing something. As far as I can tell, there are no rooms that come with breakfast. And breakfast is about $55 per person. If you just want a latte, that's about $19 US. Maybe that's why and they want you to pay up. Lastly, from a tourist's perspective, the location is away from everything and away from where the group tours start and you'll need to take a train to city hall. Just an inconvenience, but for the money, unless you really want to say you stayed there, there are probably better hotels with better amenities in better locations.

GGrace KuangylHotel is located near anguk station. Just a little 5mins walk from the hotel. very near insadong and many food places.
Below the main hotel there are some retail shops and restaurant & GS25(but it seems like the GS25 there is automated cashier or something because you cant jus go in as you wish). But there is another nearby GS25 jus a few abt 2 mins walk down on the way to subway.
Did not take the airport bus because I was rushing for time. Although the Hotel told me that it will be a 5mins walk, but I personally would not recommend if you have big large suitcases because you got to pass through humans as that area is pretty busy in the day. But it is still convenient if you want to take and a much cheaper option. (i would recommend if you take airport bus if you arrive late night)
Hotel room is big and clean & there is mountian view too! Never expect it from a city hotel. I requested for a high floor and was glad they accede to my request. However, I think i requested for a standing shower room too last minute, thus, they still assign me a bathtub room. But thats ok, I just make do with it. Basic amenities all provided (except disposable ones due to korea's law)
They are quite strict with check in time, but I manage to store my luggage at their lockers and did a wash up before heading out for lunch. So if you arrive early, do prepare some small travel cleanser or a fresh clothes in your bagpack so that you wont have to dig your luggage.
overall, im quite happy with my stay and would definitely consider coming back to this hotel.
JJennieThe room is clean and spacious. The location is superb where all the shops are just downstairs and opposite hotel is the Michelin guide noodles shop. There is also a coin laundry area where we wash our clothes during our stay. Despite car can’t drive in as it’s located in Myeongdong shopping street, it’s just a 5 mins walk away from the main street. We will definitely stay in this hotel when go Seoul again.

HheatherThe hotel has a great location, close to Yeouido subway station and Hyundai Department Store. Upon arrival, the staff proactively helped with our luggage. The front desk staff provided excellent service and were very polite. Due to not having a local credit card and accout issue, we couldn't use the app to book a taxi, but the staff promptly helped us with this. The view from the hotel window is excellent, with a clear sight of the Han River. The hotel uses Le Labo 31 amentities. However, the cleanliness needs improvement. Some areas has quite a bit of dust buildup, and the housekeeping staff placed our personal toothbrush directly on the counter, which made us uncomfortable as the toothbrush directly touched the surface.If we visit Seoul again in the future, I will still consider choosing Fairmont.

GGuest UserMy last day I switched to a dorm. Wish I’d done it sooner. The single room was freezing while the dorm was very comfortable. Same bathroom attached situation so very little advantage for single room and dorm is a lot cheaper
GGuest UserLocation of the hotel is good and is directly link via the sky bridge from seoul station. Room is a bit small compared to other hotels but still acceptable. The minus point of the hotel is that somehow there are a lot of mosquitoes. I'm not sure if it is because I opened the window on the first day, but I closed the window throughout the next 3 days. But we encountered a lot of mosquitoes and killed about 20 mosquitoes with a lot of bites and buzzing in the night. No joke.

GGuest UserSpacious and clean room. Shower head in the bathroom can be better position so the toilet floor is not wet after use. Near ddp, shopping malls and can walk to gwangjang market.
GGuest UserLoved it so much, this is my second time staying here.
Fantastic location - centrally located, can get anywhere in 10-30 mins. Bus stop right in-front of the hotel and Sinsa station 5 mins away. There’s a 7-11 next to the hotel. There’s food places around the Garousu-Gil shopping area - lots of the locals hang out there. There’s a cafe (lobby) and rooftop bar in the hotel. 10 mins walk to the Airport bus stop - super convenient to take the bus to/from the airport.
Rooms are clean and minimalist. Just take note that amenities are limited as this is an eco friendly hotel. If you are travelling with someone bring or buy additional soap/shampoo as its bar soap/shampoo/conditioner (1 bar each). If you don’t want your room cleaned daily - hotel does leave a bag of clean towels and water top up at your door. Floor space it’s good to open 3 large suitcases flat. There are slots under the bed to keep 2 suitcases just like their photos show.
Only thing lacking is hanging space - towel and clothes.
Loved the free Dear Klairs skincare samples. Store was located down the street from the hotel, picked up a few things because of the samples.
You can keep your luggage in the lobby so you don’t need to pay extra for a locker.

TTSTRAVELSI really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is so close to many restaurants, coffee shops and two metro lines. It was also conveniently located to Gwangjang Market via a 10 minute walk, Bukchon Hanok Village 20 minutes via metro and Gyeonggbokgung Palace. You can easily hike Namsan Mt. Park all the way to Seoul Tower in about 90 minutes, starting from the hotel all the way to the top. The staff were very friendly and accommodating organizing taxi services and helping with directions to get around the city. The room needs a bit of updating but it was clean, functional, the bed was comfortable to sleep in and it had a nice view of North Seoul Tower. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!
