"It appears the hotel may have recently changed hands so this may not be fair. It was the least expensive room we had during our stay in Korea so I guess we got what we paid for but I looked and saw they are charging almost double for the same room in November - I would not stay there for that rate or again even at the cheaper rate. The bathroom was clean but the general appearance of the room was not clean. The sheets had stains on them, the walls had several markings on them, looked very dirty....

Top Sungin-dong Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Had a superior double room with a view of the N Seoul Tower from the balcony. The room was spacious which included a full refrigerator, wine cooler, washer & dryer and microwave oven stovetop. The hotel is very convenient if you want to take the airport limo bus which drops you off at Hotel Kukdo where you just have walk a short distance to the hotel. There are construction going around the hotel but you can't hear the noise from your room. If you are interested in walking or running, you have the option of the Cheonggyecheon Stream which is about a block away. Also Gwangjang Market is also short walk away for local food. There are 2 buildings A and B. I traveled with family and they were in the B building and I was in A (not too far). There is a nearby GS25 across the street or Emart which is outside the reception area on 2nd floor for food and drinks. There are also train stops not too far from hotel but most area you can walk in 20 minutes or less. Definitely would stay here again. Even though you have the option to cook, there are no dishes or utensils in the room but you can rent them. Also you need to bring detergent if you plan to use the washer/dryer otherwise they do sell it at the hotel."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"Very quiet rooms-never heard our neighbors which is always a plus for me. Hotel room was clean but curtains were a little dusty which normally wouldn’t be an issue but the rooms were small and the bed was right against the curtains so my allergies acted up. Hotel amenities given are the standard ones plus unexpected ones like pajamas and Korean eye masks. Location is good-close to Namdaemun market and a 15 minute walk to Myeongdong. Very close to the subway. One thing to note is that bathroom is the Asian wet room style if you are unfamiliar. Overall great for a short trip!"
