THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff. Rooms showing a little bit of age but great nevertheless. Amazing location."

Golden Tulip Incheon Airport Hotel & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed twice -first on our way to Vietnam and then travelling back to Canada. Great location as close to the metro and shopping. Airport shuttle was handy for one trip but we found it easier, faster and cheap using the metro to get to the airport."

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"An Amazing First Stay in Korea! I booked 10 nights at Step Inn Myeongdong as part of a flight and hotel package, and honestly, I couldn't have picked a better place for my first trip to Korea! As a solo traveler, I really enjoyed sharing a room with other travelers. It was a great opportunity to meet people from different places and made the experience even more enjoyable. The location is fantastic! You're right in the heart of Myeongdong, close to shopping, restaurants, and the train station. It's perfect for exploring Seoul, and I'd even recommend it for shorter stays if you're traveling between cities. Check-in was easy, and I really appreciated how clean the property was maintained. One helpful tip: if you're staying in the four-person bunk bed suite, room cleaning can be requested every fourth day. A few things to keep in mind: rooms and bathrooms are compact, so luggage space is limited. The showerhead is positioned right above the sink, so don't expect a spacious bathroom. Overall, I absolutely loved my stay! My first trip to Korea was unforgettable, and Step Inn Myeongdong was the best place I could have chosen. I'd happily stay here again and highly recommend it to solo travelers visiting Seoul! I also loved how convenient everything felt after long days out exploring. Having a comfortable place to return to made a difference, especially when traveling on my own. The shared-room setup worked well for me, and the central location made getting around easier. :)"

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

8/10 Good

"The room was nice, clean but I am not a fan of carpet on the floor, so that made me a bit uncomfortable. The room overall was also a little dated and could use a refresh. However, I would definitely stay here again. My room had a fantastic view of the temple and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The location is also fantastic- walkable to the palaces, Cheonggyecheon Stream, Bukchon Hanok Villiage, great shopping and places for snacks or meals. The staff were very friendly and helpful and overall it is a great place to stay!"
