I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Seoul!
The location is absolutely perfect, right in the heart of Myeongdong, just steps away from Olive Young, incredible street food, and even a Michelin-rated restaurant literally across the road!
But what truly makes Nori Hotel special is the staff. They weren’t just friendly and professional; by the end of my stay, they felt like family. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they went above and beyond to accommodate every possible request. A special mention to Mr Kim, who somehow seemed to be at the front desk day and night. I’m convinced the man never sleeps! 😂
The room itself was spotlessly clean, chic, modern, and incredibly quiet, even during the Halloween festivities! I had a beautiful view of Namsan Tower, automatic curtains, and a fantastic lighting system that made the room feel both luxurious and comfortable.
The shower had seemingly endless hot water (always a bonus!), and the bar fridge was perfect for storing all the banana milk you’ll inevitably buy while exploring Seoul!
I’ve stayed in plenty of hotels, but it’s rare to find somewhere that combines such a fantastic location, beautiful rooms, and genuinely exceptional hospitality.
Nori Hotel is, without a doubt, my favourite hotel in Seoul. I’ll absolutely be back!
To Mr Kim and the entire team, thank you for making my stay so memorable and for turning Nori Hotel into a genuine home away from home. You made my time in Seoul even more special
