Top Sungnyemun Gate Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel that was very centrally located. It had everything we needed and the staff was so kind and helpful."

Fraser Place Namdaemun Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel with a great location. There are plenty of public transportation options nearby, making it very easy to get anywhere in the city. The area is convenient and surrounded by everything you need. The hot tub was perfect for relaxing after a long day of sightseeing and was definitely one of the highlights of my stay. The only thing I missed was a coin-operated laundry, which would have been very convenient for longer stays. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again on my next visit."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean room. The hallway was a little warm but we went in the summer so that is understandable, I do love being on the 3rd floor where the laundry room, gym and microwave are located. The area of the hotel is about a 10 minute walk to the heart of Myeongdong shopping so it was very convenient. And yet still very quiet. I would stay in this hotel again."

L’Escape, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was one of my favorite hotels amongst all the hotels I’ve been to in my life. Rooms are very beautiful and specious, flexible and top notch house keeping service. Staff are very nice and friendly. I didn’t get a chance to try their breakfast buffet because i like to sleep more in the morning but i tried their in room dining service for lunch and it was delicious ! The location is amazing ! Walking distance from the most famous Myeongdong shopping street and the Namdaemun market which absolutely worths visiting ! I will definitely stay here next time I’m visiting Seoul !"

Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong. The room was very comfortable and well maintained, and I especially enjoyed the breakfast, which was excellent with a great variety of food. The location was also perfect for exploring both Myeongdong and Namdaemun, making sightseeing and shopping very convenient. I would also like to especially thank the two front desk staff members who assisted me during check-in and check-out. They were very friendly, professional, and welcoming, which made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, I was very satisfied with my stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to friends and colleagues. Thank you"

Lotte Hotel Seoul

8/10 Good

"The hotel is centrally located with the Lotte shopping mall just downstairs. This is the second time we have stayed at the hotel and it is just amazing for convenience. I would say that its very expensive and we didn't opt for breakfast this time. We had to pay extra to use the traditional Korean spa so we didn't use it this time either."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my husband absolutely love staying at this hotel everytime we are in Seoul. Very convenient in terms of location to transportation: the airport limousine bus drops off a minute away, station access within a couple minutes, and bus stops just a few steps from the entrance of the hotel. There is also a port cochere for easy taxi or car drop offs and pick ups. There is a plethora of food options in every direction, including some nightlife one street behind the hotel. This hotel’s staff is always friendly and respectful, extremely clean, and has a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the surrounding city. The room size is enough for a couple. We got a room where the toilet room and shower room were separate so that was a plus. One of my favorite amenities that they provide are collagen eye masks which are perfect when you’ve traveled for hours and need a refresh. Highly recommend this hotel for short or long stays. We can’t wait for our next trip to the Hotel Gracery Seoul!"
