Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Dongdaemun
The hotel was very basic—nothing spectacular. The staff service was good, but the breakfast was terrible—one of the worst we have ever seen.

ALL STAY Myeongdong
Room was clean enough, had some difficulty with the volume of the tv but the staff tried hard to resolve it.

Grand Hyatt Seoul
Staffs are so wonderful and polite. Room has good view of Namsan Seoul tower. Amenities are a bit lacking. Bathroom definitely needs some works or refresh since it doesn’t have good enclosure and therefore water is leaking out when taking shower. Breakfast is good with lovely personnel.

My 4th stay at this hotel. Ideally located to walk to many sites but also 2 main subway lines are within a few minutes walk. Rooms are very well equipped including washing machine, LG steam cupboard and microwave. It’s my go to hotel when staying in Seoul
