Top Statue of Sejong the Great Hotel Reviews

Stanford Hotel Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and staff, accommodation"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Really impressed with this hotel. It’s central - east walk to City Hall Metro stn and 15-20 min walk the Myendong and Insadong. The staff are soooo accommodating- nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are cleaned daily with towels refreshed and the fridge restocked with cold bottled water. The restaurant is also very good if you want and eat in option. We flew out in the evening and as it was the middle summer and we’d spent the day walking around town they kindly allowed us to use the shower in the pool area to refresh before we headed out to catch our flight. GREAT VALUE AND HIGHLY RECOMMEND 😊"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent property with plenty to do in the busy area of Myeongdong. Hotel is up to date any rooms are very spacious and clean."

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

10/10 Excellent

"No"

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

8/10 Good

"Decent location - about a 10 minute walk from the Palace and a temple across the street to visit, food and beverage locations nearby, Insadong was nice. But can't give a 5 star review due to the following complaints: -View was terrible, literally looking at the side of building. Even a street view would have been nice. Asked to change and they said they couldn't move us as I guess they were busy, not really there for the view so not a huge deal. -Shower has a glass wall facing the beds, it is see through enough that it isn't really comfortable for all to use. Also to climb in to the shower you have to step over a 2 ft high side to the bathtub and back out - terrible design all in all and anyone with even minor accessibility issues would find it hard to use. -Bathroom also has a sliding door so instead of having the toilet paper in a usable location, you have to reach way behind you - it's a minor thing but just not something you'd expect for what you pay. -Cleaning staff were kind and helpful and did a great job each day Would probably stay in Myeondong if we go back to Seoul as the night markets and street markets are there and it is much more happening."

Koreana Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was good hotel, we really enjoyed restaurant"

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"Very good"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Very nice and friendly staff. They all lead with speaking English. A lot of non Koreans there. Reasonably priced buffet breakfast for a good spread. Gym is tiny - one chest press, dumbbells, two treadmills, water bubbler. Rooms relatively small but nicely furnished. Best water pressure in shower. Would recommend but on the pricier side"

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"First of all the location is perfect! Close to all the main attractions, metro and bus stations! The staff was kind and helpful, the room was impeccably cleaned every day, the view was amazing!! Breakfast was good but almost the same every day, some changes would be nice. One negative element though.. We were a couple and out 11 year old daughter and there was only one bed and it was not even king. It was barely comfortable but we managed..."
