Jongno-1.2.3.4 ga-dong, 1.3 km from Lock Museum

"I had the best stay at Hostel Tommy - it is literally seconds away from Ikseon-dong Hanok Village (one of the coolest places as a visitor) and a 3-min walk from Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station, making it super convenient and accessible. There is a 7-eleven right next to the hostel which is such a plus. The vibe was so homey and cozy, I felt incredibly safe and taken care of as a female solo traveller. The room was so comfortable too, I almost did not want to leave my room, haha! A huge shoutout to the...

"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Had a superior double room with a view of the N Seoul Tower from the balcony. The room was spacious which included a full refrigerator, wine cooler, washer & dryer and microwave oven stovetop. The hotel is very convenient if you want to take the airport limo bus which drops you off at Hotel Kukdo where you just have walk a short distance to the hotel. There are construction going around the hotel but you can't hear the noise from your room. If you are interested in walking or running, you have the option of the Cheonggyecheon Stream which is about a block away. Also Gwangjang Market is also short walk away for local food. There are 2 buildings A and B. I traveled with family and they were in the B building and I was in A (not too far). There is a nearby GS25 across the street or Emart which is outside the reception area on 2nd floor for food and drinks. There are also train stops not too far from hotel but most area you can walk in 20 minutes or less. Definitely would stay here again. Even though you have the option to cook, there are no dishes or utensils in the room but you can rent them. Also you need to bring detergent if you plan to use the washer/dryer otherwise they do sell it at the hotel."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"Very quiet rooms-never heard our neighbors which is always a plus for me. Hotel room was clean but curtains were a little dusty which normally wouldn’t be an issue but the rooms were small and the bed was right against the curtains so my allergies acted up. Hotel amenities given are the standard ones plus unexpected ones like pajamas and Korean eye masks. Location is good-close to Namdaemun market and a 15 minute walk to Myeongdong. Very close to the subway. One thing to note is that bathroom is the Asian wet room style if you are unfamiliar. Overall great for a short trip!"

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

"It's worth the price. I love how it's located right in the middle of everything. Thank you for breakfast. I love the laundry facility."

"The location is perfect and close to so many restaurants and attractions. The breakfast is nice but I was tired of it after 2 days....I needed something different. The staff is kind and helpful. Our room was perfect and we could see the mountains. Lovely stay"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was extremely helpful. Items accidentally left in closet were stored for pickup."

Orakai Daehakro Hotel, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"Excellent staff, but the elevators had very long waits. The washing machine malfunctioned. There was an electrical burn issue n had headaches for 2days when in the lobby area."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL DONGDAEMUN

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Nine Tree was excellent. At first, the Junior Double was too tiny for two people. It might be just spacious for one person. We had to upgrade to double twin which was much more spacious for two people. The hotel was so accommodating and our room was upgraded with no extra charge with a better view to the park. Mr. Kim was very understanding and helpful. The cleaning staff were very friendly. Overall, I would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul."

"Great location. Options for late check out. Happy to have an air filter and humidifier available in the room. Housekeeping was not consistent. Area under the beds had not been cleaned in some time."
