Seonjeongneung Royal Tombs

Centrally located within Seoul in Myeongdong, but just outside (essentially one block removed) of all the action so it is much more quieter and a significant positive for me. Staff was extremely friendly and the breakfast buffet was outstanding. Highly recommend having the buffet at least once on your visit. Hotel is conveniently located next to the subway so it is extremely easy and accessible to get around every major neighborhood. It is also walking distance to Seoul Station, but I would recommend taking a cab/taxi/Uber for convenience as the area is generally within a major node for traffic.

Hotel Atrium is an average hotel. The room was very basic and includes the bare minimum like beds, a washroom, and a mini fridge. It was also clean but you could tell the hotel has been around as the carpets have visible stain spots. There’s also a subtle scent but nothing too bothersome. The main winning point for the room is how spacious it is. Location is decent. It’s right next to Gwangjang Market. Luckily public transportation in Seoul is very advanced so bussing and subway made it easy to get to different parts of the city.
