Hotels near Seoul Forest, Seoul

The hotel is conveniently located near Wangsimni Station, just a 3-minute walk from exits 1 or 2. If you have luggage, using the escalator at exit 3 or the elevator near exit 6 (both within a 10-minute walk) makes it much easier to get to. The room had a circular bed, not the rectangular one shown in the pictures. It was quite large, easily big enough for two people. I barely noticed the typical Korean bathroom smell, though the shower drain was a bit clogged, which was a minor issue. The hairdryer was in a drawer; it was a little noisy but powerful enough to dry my hair effectively! At night, the heating was on constantly, making the room quite dry. I found that turning off the bathroom fan helped make it more comfortable. Behind the front desk, there was a lounge area with a coffee machine, a hot water dispenser for cup noodles, a microwave, and more, all available for guests to use freely. This was also the only place where free Wi-Fi was available. Room cleaning can be requested at the front desk when you head out in the morning. If you leave used bath towels and trash outside your door, they will be collected. You can also get fresh bath towels from the front desk if you ask. I'd read some reviews mentioning mold, but upon closer inspection, it was minimal, so if you're sensitive, you might want to bring your own. They provided enough room wear for everyone. There were several bottled waters in the fridge, and you could freely grab more from a dispenser near the front desk, which was a great perk. All the staff were incredibly kind and wonderful. I'd definitely like to stay here again! Thank you!

Wonderful motel near 3 metro stations. We spent here a great week. As many reviews said, it's host is a helpful and kind woman. She let us wash all our clothes in her washing machine and a dryer twice. She treated us with fruits and gave juice cans. She even got up at 4:30 AM to say good bye! The room is small, but cozy and clean, with a fridge and a warm sheet on a bad, the bathroom is clean too. A microwave and a cooler are in the hall. We like this place and thank the amazing host!

This is my second time staying here. I always choose this hotel because it's within walking distance of the dance studio. This time there was some construction going on, but it didn't really bother me. Check-in wasn't automated, so I had to wait a little, but the staff are always very kind and helpful. They even advised me on arranging a taxi. The hotel is also close to the station, so it's easy to get to various places by train. Last year, there was a convenience store right next door, but it looks like a different tenant is moving in. It's a bit of a shame since it was so convenient, but it's not a problem as there are others within a short walk. They provide shampoo and body wash, but no conditioner, so it's a good idea to bring your own. The fridge is quite shallow. I'd like to stay here again the next time I visit Korea.

This hotel is decent, and the price isn't too expensive. I booked a room without breakfast. The location is a bit out of the way, not close to any tourist attractions, but the surrounding area is nice with many restaurants that stay open late.

The hostel is clean, strategically located, and the staff are friendly. Even though it's a small hostel, it provides all guest necessities with great detail and completeness (body care, facial care, even contact lens solution). The hostel's location is very close to the subway station. Thank you, Mr. Richard, the friendly and welcoming owner.

It was a very old but well-organized room. It was supposed to be a non-smoking room, but there were ashtrays and matches on the table, and it smelled strongly of cigarettes when I entered. There were a lot of drinking establishments nearby, so it was very noisy until late at night.

Room number three. The room is tiny, cramped even for one person. Two people would be unbearable. It's very stuffy with high humidity. You constantly have to open the window, otherwise, you'd suffocate. Finding the hotel is very difficult as there's no sign on the building. There's only an A4 paper sign deep inside the entrance hall, which is hard to spot. If I hadn't read other reviews, I would never have found this guesthouse. It's on the 4th floor and there's no elevator. The hallway is dirty. The location is excellent though. The metro is 40 meters away. Bus 6001 to the airport is across the street. There are many shops and eateries nearby, catering to all tastes. The staff are always ready to help, even remotely. They aren't always on-site.

The hotel is conveniently located just a few minutes' walk from Exit 1 of Changhanpyeong Subway Station. If you have luggage, you can take the escalator up instead of climbing stairs. There's a CU convenience store right next to the hotel, and a 7-Eleven across the street, which is very handy. The downside is that the hot water for showering only lasts about 30 minutes. If a second person showers, it starts getting cold towards the end. Also, the hotel's cleaning staff leave after 4 PM, so when I checked in, I noticed one of the beds was a bit dirty, and I had to wait for the front desk staff to be available to help change it.

🍒 The entrance is a bit hidden down an alley, so it took a moment to find. The slightly run-down entrance did make me a bit worried, but thankfully there's an elevator, so no worries about heavy luggage. 🍓 It turned out to be a pleasant surprise! It's only been open for 3 months, so everything is new. The triple room wasn't too cramped (Seoul rooms are generally small, so this one was quite good). 🍍 Towels and toilet paper are by the door, so you can help yourself to fresh ones. The towels were also very new. The water pressure was good, hot water was stable, and the toilet worked perfectly. 🍉 In winter, they have floor heating, which is lovely and warm. My underwear dried overnight, so you don't need to pack too much. 🥕 There are many restaurants downstairs, so you don't have to go far, plus an OLIVE YOUNG which is super convenient (Tip: For OLIVE YOUNG, try one near a less crowded subway station, like Seonjeongneung Station. It's often cheaper than those in bustling areas, with face masks sometimes half price!) 🌶 From Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station (Line 2), exit 13, walk straight, turn right at OLIVE YOUNG, and it's about 50 meters. Look up to the fourth floor and you'll see the discreet 'HI DONGDAEMUN' sign. 🐰 The 6001 bus to Incheon Airport is also very close; check the attached photos for the location. Nearby subway lines: 2, 4, and 5. 🦀 All in all, it was a great experience, highly recommended! Hope this helps! 🐯

Just got home and immediately wrote a review because the hotel is so good. The hotel is located only 100m from exit 3 of Dapsimni station (line 5, purple), opposite exit 3 is exit 2 (there is an elevator for those with heavy luggage), or exit 6 on the other side of the street also has an elevator. Behind the hotel is an Emart supermarket that sells everything from fruits to vegetables, meat, fish, etc. The hotel's rule is to check in at 6pm, but the day I arrived it was 3pm, so I got an early check in, I stayed for 4 nights so I was changed to a larger room than the one I originally booked. My room had a private bathroom and toilet so I was super satisfied. The room was cleaned every day, the room was fully equipped with a hair dryer, hair straightener, and round comb to style hair when brushing and drying. Although it is not located near Myeongdong area, it is very close to the train station, transferring lines to other places is quite easy, the room area is larger than other hotels with the same price range in Myeongdong area. The only downside is that there is no place to hang clothes in the bathroom when showering, so you have to hang them outside the bathroom door, after showering, you have to reach out to get your clothes😆
