Top Statue of Sejong the Great Hotel Reviews

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and nice facility close to all shops ,foods"

Hotel Midcity Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, close to walk to major tourist attractions, many food opportunities around."

UH Continental SeoulCenter

8/10 Good

"Hotel was right in front of a subway entrance which made commuting very handy. Room was spacious and clean. Staff was not very helpful...I had requested non feather pillows and bedding (extremely allergic) and I was told that the entire hotel only had feather pillows!!!! I asked for a recommendation for where I could buy a pillow in the morning and the girl said she would let me know but she never did. There are no towel hooks (towels kept at entrance of room and not in the actual bathroom) and no face cloths. Rooms very clean"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff are superb. Beds and room were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good. Hotel location for uber/taxi was a bit awkward but manageable. Stationary bike in gym was broken."

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"The property itself is lovely. But the staff is exceptional. Professional, highly responsive, accommodating and made everything feel easier (we had a 2 year toddler)."

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"The Prima hotel Jongno was clean and fairly quiet. The location was excellent for exploring Seoul. It was very convenient to have coin laundry on site as well."

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and breakfest was the best in the world. We will book again when visiting seoul."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Good not great - I booked one of the character themed rooms on the 14th. These are more expensive. The themed decor is excellent. However the room is not really fit for two adults - only one wide table and only one charger near the bed. The chargers on the desk didn’t work and the far charger near the tv was low voltage and so took a she to do anything. The air con is centrally maintained and during our stay was too cold. Also the vents don’t appear to have been cleaned. When opting to open the window this is behind the desk and if open the curtains aren’t thick enough to keep any light out with the window closed (the window has a blind on it). The entire room (likely as the window is never open and the air on never cleaned) is very musky and humid. A dehumidifier is provided but with the lack of functional plugs it wasn’t possible to use this. The bathroom was fine but the shower head desperately needed cleaning. The real selling points of this hotel were the location and the excellent buffet breakfast"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and nice accommodations. Made the travel easy!"
