Glue Hotel Dongdaemun ★★★
"Very comfortable & spacious hotel room, bathroom and shower facilities magnificent. Huge comfortable bed, air conditioned, very quiet area. Fiendly helpful staff. A great location for public transit and plenty of local convenience stores and restaurants close by."
NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONGDONG 1 ★★★
"The front desk is on the third floor. Myeongdong is just downstairs, and there's a CU and a 7-Eleven nearby. Subway Exit 8 is only a few steps away – it's super convenient and great for exploring! The check-in sheet mentioned that the hotel offers nine types of pillows, but there wasn't any information about this in the room, so we couldn't choose and just gave up on the idea."
stay sai
Minimalist accommodation with a cosy atmosphere, ideal for short city stays and young travellers.
Oriens Hotel & Residences Myeongdong ★★★★
"The location is good, but the facilities are terrible, especially the toilet. It broke twice in the two days I stayed there, just for your reference."
HOMES Red Myeongdong ★★★
"The room was right next to the elevator, across from the utility room, and on the other side was the emergency staircase. Being squeezed between these three was a bit awkward. The service was mediocre, and only the building's exterior looked good. Laundry required going to another floor. The hygiene was average, not as good as Weco a few hundred meters away. Not recommended for introverts."
Brooklyn Blues Hotel ★★★
"Facilities: Though small, it has everything one needs. It's perfect for a solo trip. I also loved the unique decor. Cleanliness: I didn't find any unclean spots, it was great! Environment: The location is super convenient. You can walk to Gwangjang Market and the subway station. Even coming back late at night, I felt completely safe. Service: They offer ciabatta for breakfast in the morning, and coffee can be purchased separately. Overall, the experience was excellent! The front desk staff spoke fluent English, so communication was very smooth. My only minor complaint is that I couldn't reach the front desk by phone from my room and had to go downstairs to resolve issues, but otherwise, everything was great."
N. Joy stay Dongdaemun ★★★
"Great stay at N.Joy, 5min away from Dongmyo station. Calm area, clean and comfortable rooms, super friendly staff, complimentary drinks and cheap self service myeon !"
ROELA GUEST HOUSE ★★
"It was great! The host was very nice, the environment was very clean, the check-in process was smooth, the room was comfortable and quiet, and the overall stay was a very pleasant experience. I would definitely stay here again if I have the chance!"
Koreana Hotel ★★★★
"Convenient location and clean, though the decor feels a bit dated. I'd still choose to stay here again next time."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MAPO
"The hotel is nice. The swimming pool looks good. Location is convenient with some shops and restaurants just at the building"
Airsky Hotel Incheon
Modern, pet-friendly rooms with smart layouts, cosy amenities, and easy access to Incheon Airport and nearby transport links.
Kensington Hotel Yeouido
"The front desk lady was very kind and upgraded my room. The room was spacious, and the bed was large and comfortable. Even after ordering takeout, the room was cleaned thoroughly the next day. The only downside is that the facilities are a bit old, and if it weren't for a few tiny flies, the experience would have been even better. Overall, it's good value for the price."
Mondrian Seoul Itaewon
"I was told I was unable to control the air-conditioning as it is a central unit. As such, to cool down the room, I had to open the windows. There are constructions happening outside hence noise travels in if the windows are open. Shower rwater leaks into the room - utter design failure. Honestly, better off somrwhere else."
L’Escape, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seoul Myeongdong
Elegant luxury hotel blending classic European design with refined dining and sophisticated city vibes.
The Grand Lotte Seoul (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)
"It's refurbished, but clean, and the price isn't high, so it's still reasonable. However, it's probably best to stay elsewhere for the first few days and then move to Lotte when you're ready to shop, as it's very convenient. The most important thing is to bring cash, as you *must* use a card. I didn't have a credit card, so I had to scramble for cash."
Sono Calm Goyang
Premium luxury retreat with elegant rooms, spectacular city vistas, close KINTEX proximity, and world-class guest facilities.
Mayfield Hotel Seoul
"Clean And neat Very close to the railway station. And the price is reasonable"
Hamilton Hotel Itaewon
"The room was very small and definitely was noisy. Wish they had more signage’s as the hotel entrance was tucked away. While no one was rude, some staff were not friendly. Not sure if I’d choose this hotel."
Simdo Hotel&Spa Sillim by Anook
"It was great to experience a Japanese-style room! I stayed for two nights, but the amenities and towels weren't refilled. However, it was very close to the station, which was convenient."
Nine Tree Premier ROKAUS Hotel Seoul Yongsan
"Had a great stay at Nine Tree Premier ROKAUS Hotel Seoul Yongsan. The hotel is very new, modern, and extremely clean. The location is super convenient — there is a large shopping mall right next to the hotel, and the subway station is nearby as well. There are also many restaurants around the area, making it very easy to find food anytime. The staff were friendly and the facilities were excellent. I would definitely stay here again when visiting Seoul!"
UH FLAT THE SONGDO
Contemporary apartments featuring a rooftop swimming pool, modern living spaces, and convenient access to Songdo’s parks, shopping, and dining.
Hotel Park Habio
"I always stay here when I'm on a business trip. The only downside is that the breakfast is too simple. The location is very convenient for transportation, and the Onyong downstairs is a plus. Overall, it's good and convenient, but it would be even better if the breakfast could be improved."
ROYAL HOTEL SEOUL Myeongdong
"Very well located in the best tourist spot. Great shopping experience and fantastic food selections."
Nouvelle Hotel and Spa Seoul Jongro by Aank
"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for comfort and convenience. From the moment I arrived, the staff were welcoming, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The room was clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was especially cozy, which made it easy to relax after a long day. I also appreciated the attention to detail in the room setup. The hotel’s location was perfect—close to key attractions, restaurants, and transportation, making it very easy to get around. The facilities, including the pool and fitness center, were well-kept and added extra value to the experience. Overall, it was a pleasant and hassle-free stay. I would definitely come back again and recommend this hotel to friends and family."
Blue Ocean Hotel 3
"The facilities were very clean, and the appliances were well-equipped and maintained. Both the hot water and the heating/cooling systems worked perfectly. Located on a main road, it felt very safe to stay here. The ocean view was also excellent."
