There is a noisy club that blasts music and bass from evening until 6:00 AM. Sleep is very difficult.

There is a nightclub nearby and the bass reverberates through the building from 6PM to 6AM. If you want good sleep, this is not the hotel for you. If you will be passed out drunk, not so much of a problem.

The train station was in front of the location as well as numerous bus stops. Plenty of places to eat and plenty of bars. The only hotel staff that was memorable were the housekeepers. Other than that the fans were inoperable the bars and clubs in the area kept playing loud music then in the morning there was construction. However the hotel did provide ear plugs. Overall my time there was just above average.

This hotel is located in such a great spot. As long as I closed my window at night, I could block out the noises from the clubs/general partying in Itaewon. It was clean and I didn't hear my "neighbors" at all.

The sound proofing is really bad. The noise from the bars could be heard all through the night. I asked to be moved before my second night. The second room had less street noise but I could hear someone snoring in the room next to me. The staff were nice but the hotel has serious flaws.

The hotel was pretty clean and the area is definitely lively but I was not expecting the rooms to be directly next to a club that was open all night. I should have looked at the area better but it is a little disconcerting when a hotel room comes with ear plugs for the excessive noise.

The hotel is just right outside itaewon station exit 2. There is a lift up from another exit nearby as well. There is olive young right beside. A lot of halal food around, short walk away from the mosque and more halal food. The only downside is the music from the clubs that goes on all night until 6am. I'm a deep sleeper and location is super convenient, will def book this hotel again.

Clean, loud, great location
In the heart of clubs and bars. They give earplugs because it’s so loud. Clubs play loud music until 5am on weekends. Very convenient location for metro and very clean. No water refill stations and they only give two bottles of water daily. I had interactions with men and women front desk clerks, the men were not well-informed. For instance, one clerk said I could pay for an airport taxi using a credit card. It’s cash only. The women were very helpful, tho. It’s a very clean hotel and a great location.

Hotel is near the metro, easy to access anywhere. Restaurant is just some walk from the hotel. Before we arrival, we request the hotel arrange the room in highfloor to avoid noisy which is mentioned by review. Even staying in F8, we still hear the noisy from the bars arround. It is too loud till 2 AM. Therefore, if someone wants to hang out at night, Hamilton hotel is a good choice; otherwise, you should consider staying here.

Overall great location, convinience and comfort. Some rooms seem noisy at night but that depends i think. TV is very small for the room but that's a minor one. Some receptionist (a young lady) was very cold in checking in, but another receptionist was very helpful. Overall i am happy with the stay

Right in the heart in Itaewon right about Itaewon Station. Spacious rooms, clean, friendly informative staff. My room was in front on the 7th floor which was quiet. I enjoyed my stay here and will come back if ever in Seoul again.

Surrounding area Hamilton Hotel is located in is oriented towards people in 20s to 30s. The restaurant on second level which might be independent of hotel was excellent. However the hotel was converting to colder season and our air conditioning was not working. Friendly hotel staff provided a fan which was insufficient. We did not extend our stay and moved to Marriot Hotel.

Noisiest hotel ever
I can't even say that my stay was an absolute nightmare, because I could not even sleep. My room was overlooking the back street which turns into a party place, with music on full blast until 7 in the morning, and the soundproofing of the room was dreadful.

This hotel is in a prime location; right across from Itaewon station and has a good amount of amenities. There's alot of bars, restaurants, and shopping within walking distance. But also it was great being able to just walk across the street and have access to Seoul's extensive subway system. The room I stayed in was nice and spacious, with closet space, bidet, and bathtub/shower option. Would definitely stay here again.
