Top Yongsan-gu Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

8/10 Good

"The staff was very helpful and the property was in great shape. Location was convenient to Namdaemun market and Myeongdong. Close to coffee shops, Paris Baquette, CU and a few restaurants just steps away. THe only issue was the tiny washer/dryer unit, it didn't work well at all, but the hotel has larger laundry facility if you can stick around to monitor your laundry. Would stay here again."

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

10/10 Excellent

"This was the first time I ever experienced a 5-star hotel and I must say it was pretty amazing. I’m still sore over being charged an extra $1050 just to add my wife as a second guest. The hotel said it was all Expedia that did not work it out with me. I’m still digging up the original booking."
