"By yourself check in/out so easy no waiting, Rooms are small for 4 suitcases but oké, a closet would be a major upgrade because you don’t have to live out your suitcase. Great location 5 min walk from metro and 10 min from citycenter ( foodstreet ) Price for the room is great so, it is no luxury hotel but for this price, clean quiet, bed are great what do you need more ??I would come here again next trip if it is availible !"

Top National Museum of Korean Contemporary History Hotel Reviews

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

8/10 Good

"The location is easy to access to the attractions."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"The room is really nice with kitchenette with a microwave and fridge and a nice big counter for talking or sharing food, it has washer and dryer in the room which is amazing no need to pack a lot of clothes. Our shower was clogged, but, they fix it right away. The staff were superb always greet us and help us in any way possible."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Comfort stay, walking distance 8-10min to subway, a bit off the busiest part of myeongdong which is not bad. If you take the airport bus to here, you need to take the stairs to the underground to cross the Main Street to get to the hotel. I believe the station to airport you don’t have to but we didn’t get to verify as this was our first stay out of two in Seoul. The only annoying part of our stay is the shower as it will leak to ground after a few minutes as the bath tub has a ledge to hold the water and it became full after a couple minutes of use. Rooms are small, breakfast is decent for $15 and you get to make veg bimbimpa, instant noodle, hot riffle and some western breakfast. Laundry (huge washer) gets busy at night."

Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in the heart of the shopping street so it’s just steps from shops and restaurants. Very clean and modern. We had a view of the cathedral from our 9th floor room. Beds were comfortable. Wifi worked well throughout the hotel. Lobby is in the 21st floor. Taxi can’t drive up to the front door until after midnight so you need to walk to a major street if you’re coming from the airport with lots of luggage. We tried the buffet breakfast and it was good and convenient with a nice view from the top of the hotel but a bit expensive. Hotel provides free ice candy, money exchange, umbrellas, vending machine, and luggage storage in the lobby. We checked in at midnight with no problem. Check out time is 12pm so we had plenty of time to sleep in and pack our bags. Coin laundry and free microwave ovens are on the 6th floor. Ice machine and water dispenser on every floor. We received 3 bottles of water and new towels every day! Netflix and Amazon can login to your account and automatically log out when you leave."

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing!!!! Staff were wonderful, car service was so convenient and location was in walking distance to everything! The neighborhood is super cute and hotel was beautiful. The rooms were spacious and lovely with every possible amenity. The breakfast was spectacular, and we loved the spa and gym amenities."
