"This is a nice, affordable hotel with awesome staff. Rooms are basic as are many hotels in Korea, and are clean and comfortable (one double bed and one single bed in most rooms). The staff is excellent. We stayed here because a family member works close by. Some neighborhood restaurants are within walking distance as well as a few “quick marts”. Unification park with some hiking trails and a rebuilt 1.000 year old palace is nearby."

Top Dora Observatory Hotel Reviews

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"Very good"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"The hotel is great for convenience and having a washing machine in each room, but at the same time it's pretty sparse. My bathroom also smelled of mold after each shower. The front desk staff struggled with English, and limited the amount of water given out. They also couldn't recommend any nearby restaurants, when asked. The neighborhood is not touristy, which is nice, but also means doing your own research to find things. It was a good price, though, all things considered."

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

10/10 Excellent

"I love staying in this hotel."

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"Good hotel, close to train and bus stations but a little out of the way if you want nightlight and restaurants"

K-Grand Hostel Sinchon

10/10 Excellent

"The hostel is honestly like a hotel. I really enjoyed my stay there. It has many food places nearby and a Paris Baguette across the street. The only con I found was not having a full length mirror. The staff was very welcoming and kind. They also answered any questions I had. Clare was the best!"

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"Good location"

Hwagok Lush Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"No complaints! Directions from ICN were a little vague, but just use some critical thinking and a map and you'll be fine."

SOO HOTEL

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the Soo Hotel was great! The room was clean and quiet. The hotel was close the concert venue and there were plenty of places to eat nearby. The hotel had a popcorn and slushie machine for guests to enjoy as well as claw machines. The staff was both friendly and helpful. I recommend Soo Hotel to guests traveling to Seoul."

Holiday Inn Express Seoul Hongdae by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"A busy area if you prefer downtown life. Close to everything"
