Top Donghwa-dong Hotel Reviews

Grand Hyatt Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough good things about my stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul. Everything was as expected for a Grand Hyatt property: excellent customer service, tidy rooms, and well-maintained facilities. The views of Seoul were amazing as well. I highly recommend this hotel."

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"The EA was really well situated. Near to bus stops and subways, and within easy walking distance of the main central areas. Staff were incredibly helpful and always positive in their Support. The swimming pool was very welcome after a hard day walking. The room was very clean, well organised and the bed was wonderful."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at Lotte City Myeongdong - and would stay here again or recommend to friends visiting Seoul for the first time. Just located slightly away for the busiest parts of Myeongdong so perfect to come back to and walk about from. Check-in was easy and the staff allowed us to check in 3 hours early which was perfect. Room was clean and tidy with the expected amenities. Only thing missing was an iron but there is an ironing room on the 3rd floor. Bathroom is a good size with a modern Japanese-style toilet. A perfect stay all around!"
