ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent
"We spent two weeks at this hotel, the room (Family suite) was excellent, beds comfortable and amenities fantastic and the room kept clean everyday by the staff. All of the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly, from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. An excellent base to explore Seoul, with metro and bus stops close by, also convenience store close by and plenty of eating places too. We ate a few times at the restaurant and the food was very good and tasty, also reasonable prices. If/when we come back, we will definitely stay here again."
