Lotte Hotel Seoul
4.6/5121 Reviews

Lotte Hotel Seoul

City Hall/Myeong-Dong Seoul|0.84km from Insa-dong
The hotel was clean and organized. The front desk was helpful and their were ladies that helped us to deliver our suitcases. I am not sure what their titles were but I just found that it was rather odd since most hotels in North America hired young men to do this. Kudos to the hotel for not type casting roles. The location was very good. The downstairs food court and restaurant was very tasty and clean. I would definitely go back to this hotel if I am ever in Korea again.
Lotte Hotel Seoul Executive Tower
4.6/537 Reviews

Lotte Hotel Seoul Executive Tower

City Hall/Myeong-Dong Seoul|0.85km from Insa-dong
Stayed at the Lotte Executive Tower just after the holidays, in a Premier Double Room. Pros: - The entrance of the Executive Tower is absolutely beautiful. Same with the Main Tower. Elegant, refined, beautiful art work. The executive tower check-in desks are on the 15th floor. - Easy access by escalator directly into the Lotte Department Store (from where the escalator takes you to, hang a right to get to the famous food hall!) - Location can’t be beat. Directly across from Eujiro Station (1) and around the corner from Myeong-Dong Walking Street / Night Market and several 7-11s (which are almost as good as the 7-11s in Japan). - Our room was beautiful, spacious, thoughtfully designed and decorated. Very modern touches and upscale finishes. A chandelier in the bathroom?? - Immaculate housekeeping. - Excellent temperature and very strong water pressure in the shower! - Appreciate the 2 complimentary bottles of Evian every day. - Fast wifi speeds. Cons: - Love the Diptyque toiletries but wish they weren’t the communal / shared bottles. There were bits of dried lotion crusted on the pump from the previous occupant. - Weird that neither lobby had a single chair to sit on. What’s up with that? Comes off a bit inhospitable. This isn’t the type of place to attract non-guests / loiterers. A bench wouldn’t kill anyone! - For a 5* hotel and the price we’re paying, it’s disappointing that there is a surcharge should you need a toothbrush, toothpaste or use of the sauna (!!). They claim the charge for toothbrush and paste is to prevent wastage but surely you could just have these small items available upon request at the front desk? - The doormen’s manners range from formal and friendly (some) to indifferent (most) to downright hostile (many), especially if you are not a Korean speaker, as many don’t speak English. I’m not arrogant enough to think they should speak English in a non-English speaking country, but a smile is universal, you know? Would likely stay here again at the right price and given the location.
Four Seasons Hotel Seoul
4.6/5120 Reviews

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

City Hall/Myeong-Dong Seoul|0.95km from Insa-dong
I have had the pleasure of staying at many different four seasons locations, however Four Seasons Seoul was and is by far my favorite. I flew in from the US and requested a car to pick me up at the airport in Seoul and staff was waiting for me outside when I arrived. They pre checked me in since I was traveling internationally and had arranged for me to go directly to the room. The staff was thoughtful and continued to add personal touches the entire stay. The majority of the staff is multi lingual and helped to helped to arrange transportation and exterior details of my activities and appointments. They genuinely went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and extraordinary. Cannot wait to come back!
The Westin Josun Seoul

The Westin Josun Seoul

City Hall/Myeong-Dong Seoul|0.97km from Insa-dong
The location of the hotel is its main selling point. It is right where the action is. The employees are friendly, polite and very helpful. Service is premium. With the above, I would definitely recommend this place! My drawback is the breakfast offered. The choice and spread is very limited. It is better to go out and eat.
The Plaza Seoul, Autograph Collection
4.6/5139 Reviews

The Plaza Seoul, Autograph Collection

City Hall/Myeong-Dong Seoul|1.05km from Insa-dong
Excellent location in the heart of Seoul with easy access to temples, public transportation, and food. We had a suite that was smaller than most normal rooms at other Marriott properties (especially autograph tier) akin to staying in a New York or Hong Kong hotel. The size of the room was disappointing but ultimately it is a great location. The Boulangerie on the way to the metro is great 👌🏻

Sotetsu Hotels the Splaisir Seoul Dongdaemun

Dongdaemun Market Seoul|2.06km from Insa-dong
The hotel location is perfect and it is right infront of the lift exit 4 from DDP train station. It has airport bus stop right in front of the hotel to Incheon Airport. It may take 2 hours traveling time to airport because the bus will drop by many places around Seoul before heading to airport. The room is spacious and clean.
Toyoko Inn Seoul Dongdaemun I
4.4/558 Reviews

Toyoko Inn Seoul Dongdaemun I

Dongdaemun Market Seoul|2.09km from Insa-dong
It's a good hotel on a budget. Has a very homely breakfast and water dispenser to fill up your bottles with ice and water. Also has robes to use as pyjamas. Very no frills. Don't expect service from the staff. We expected to be able to check in earlier when we reached if the room was available. We reached only about 15mins to our check in time but were told to wait at the lobby till 1600. I am not sure what the fixation is about for the check in time. If the room is available, then let the guest have it. First time we have experienced this in any country.
Summit Hotel Dongdaemun
4.3/5519 Reviews

Summit Hotel Dongdaemun

Dongdaemun Market Seoul|2.1km from Insa-dong
Service was inconsistent - sometimes the staff were really nice and friendly and other times they were plain rude and disrespectful to you. When I first entered my room the smell took me aback. It smelled like a mix of sweat and wet socks. The sheets were crumpled and weren’t super clean either. The bathtub had yellow stains which threw me off as I was looking forward to a midnight soak. Basic amenities were given, which was great. The housekeeping ladies were really sweet as well. It’s a 5 minute walking distance to the train station so location was not so bad. Sadly I don’t think I’d book again as it was not that worth for the price.
Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Station
4.3/5387 Reviews

Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Station

Seoul Station Seoul|2.59km from Insa-dong
The walk from seoul station is not that near. Quite a long walk with direct underpass but flat surface. Take note the underpass only 6am-11pm only. Room was huge for 1 pax, you can even open 2 big luggages on the floor. Had the first guest floor which is on 20th floor, which is quite high already. Room was clean and pillow was soft. Iron only 1 in laundry room.

Hotel Kuretakeso Insadong

Jongro / Insadong Seoul|0.12km from Insa-dong
I was in a hurry to notice that I lost my credit card in Myeongdong, but the front desk kindly responded in Japanese. There was no illegal use and it was safe. Thank you very much. This hotel is close to Kushiro 3-ga Station, so it is a ５ book from Gimpo Airport on Line １ and it is compact but I like it because it is a room with a bathtub.

The location of the hotel is walking distance to insadong street with lots of food and shops. You can also walk to the famous temple and wear the hanbok there. There were also bars nearby. The reception was under construction at the time of our visit but despite that, they have placed signages to guide their guests and they maintained cleanliness. The staff are also very accomodating.

Moxy Seoul Insadong

Perfect location, the entrance is right in front of the subway entrance and serviced by 3 subway lines. Is also opposite ikseondong which is a very lively place full of great food and beautiful cafes. Room is clean and minimal. Do not expect full hotel service here but it certainly better than a budget hotel. Will recommend for the location.
The Prima Jongno

The Prima Jongno

Jongro / Insadong Seoul|0.29km from Insa-dong
Because the location is Insa-dong, it is easy to get around by public transportation and car. The accommodation is cost-effective and quiet. I plan to visit again. For your information, parking facilities are limited for guests, but they are available for free and are on a first-come-first-served basis. It would be better without it. The surrounding Buda facilities are very good. Starting from the nearby restaurants, there are old palaces such as Gyeongbukgung, and it is easy to use both cultural life and shopping restaurants.

The hotel’s staff is very friendly, responsible, and helpful, we had a problem with the room and they solved it right away. The gym is really large and is equipped with lots of machines; there is even a separate room for yoga and stretching. The hotel is located next to the City Hall subway and the Deoksugung Palace; there are many places to eat nearby. It’s a fine place to stay while you are in Seoul.

This little hotel was very clean and the front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. They spoke English! There is an elevator and there were lots of tourist brochures in the lobby. I reserved the ”Korean style” room. The Korean touches were window screens and a table on the floor. The window opened for fresh air. I was there in March, so I don't need aircon, but the temperature of the room was comfortable. The bathroom was a lot nicer than I expected - very roomy. My room had plenty of room and a comfortable bed. It was a great value for the money. I would stay here again. The only negative was that it was a little bit hard for taxis to find, so ask the front desk for a business card with instructions on it to show to taxi drivers. The location is otherwise very good - centrally located and felt safe.

Location: 1 to 2 minutes walk from the station, easy to find. There are two convenience stores nearby, which was very helpful. Service: First of all, the receptionists (both women and men) were kind and polite. When you check in, you will receive a paper with instructions, but all of them are in Japanese and easy to understand. Cleanliness: There is a sense of cleanliness. However, during our consecutive stay, there was a large bee-like insect in the room, which was scary. (We ended up spending time together until the last day...lol) Amenities: There was shampoo and conditioner, but no toothbrushes, soap, etc. I always bring it with me so it wasn't a problem. Please return your towels each time in the basket next to the reception desk, and receive a new towel each time you return them. (Some hotels don't replace towels, so this system was helpful.) The towels were clean. Unfortunately, there was no refrigerator in the room. ●I was satisfied overall. For this price, you can get a convenience store near the station, a bathtub, and a feeling of cleanliness.
