Top National Museum of Korea Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"The rooms had everything you needed but decoration was sparse and clinical. Room lighting was disappointing. Bed was against a wall, so it was awkward to go for an overnight toilet break without disturbing partner on open side of bed. Air con was efficient and washing machine in room welcomed."

Mondrian Seoul Itaewon

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and great hotel."

Imperial Palace Boutique Hotel, Itaewon

10/10 Excellent

"Love this hotel. Wish it would have been available during the long weekend."

Grand Hyatt Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t say enough good things about my stay at the Grand Hyatt Seoul. Everything was as expected for a Grand Hyatt property: excellent customer service, tidy rooms, and well-maintained facilities. The views of Seoul were amazing as well. I highly recommend this hotel."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely well located hotel. Staff were great. Lifts are a bit confusing. But otherwise a property I’d definitely recommend"

Hotel the Designers Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is perfectly located. Not too far away from the tourist areas but far enough away to offer a quiet stay! Breakfast options at the hotel were very limited and there was not much storage for clothes in the room but they were the only downsides! The room was beautiful and a perfect size, the in room safe was very small and could only fit passports and money, not laptops or valuables of a similar size. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Be mindful that the hotel is near to Seoul station so you can hear the trains sometimes, but earplugs are available for free at the front desk if needed. We didn’t seem to hear the trains that much so we found it perfect."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Yongsan - Seoul Dragon City

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great!"

Novotel Suites Ambassador Seoul Yongsan - Seoul Dragon City
