"整體住宿體驗滿意，很幸運地能夠訂到他們最大的房間型號，如其他房型，未必有足夠空間完全打開兩個行李箱，衛生程度滿意，職員態度親切，共用空間設備亦充足，但自助行李寄存方面比較欠缺安全感，所寄存的空間在等候升降機的位置，雖然有CCTV監控器監控，但難免因為共用空間是任何人都能進出，而且有些手提行李未必有鎖，實在擔心，希望這方面能改善。"

"You cannot get dropped off by taxi in front of the hanok. You will have to take your suitcases down a couple alleys. The front door is an electric lock, the the individual rooms have a three number passcode on the outside and the "lock" for the inside is a spoon and door handle. Would work fine if it was group using all three rooms, but wouldn't recomend unless your prepped with extra security. Was very clean. Small fridge and sink which was nice. Tinier than I originally expected but worked...

Top Dongdaemun History and Culture Park Hotel Reviews

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL DONGDAEMUN

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was perfectly located for what we planned to do. It is a popular hotel so we got picked form here for our DMZ tour and really close to the famous markets for our food tour. The breakfast was EXCELLENT! We have been travelling and so far this has been the best for choice. I would definitely stay here again."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"This was a perfectly located hotel. Airport bus stop and lift to metro lines literally at door. Lovely, comfortable big rooms and enjoyed the pyjamas & bathroom. Staff polite and attentive with any query. Would certainly stay here again if in Seoul."

Uljiro Co-Op Residence

10/10 Excellent

"Good"

JW Marriott Dongdaemun Square Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Unbelievably wonderful, polite, respectful and professional team right from the start of our stay till the last moment. Truly appreciated the warm welcome by Sophie and reception (really kind and professional individual). Also the early check in was really helpful and we really appreciated it, around our plans on the day. The level and quality of the facilities were exquisite; particularly the swimming pool and sauna facilities. The gentleman at the restaurant on the 2nd floor by the name of Justin was so professional and friendly. Equally the gentleman at the front door by the name of David, kindly helped us with every single one of our luggage and put them inside the taxi. We really were treated like VIP. Thanks a million to each and every individual for making our stay truly exceptional; we sure will come back again in the future. I’d highly recommend this hotel to whoever is visiting Seoul."

The Summit Hotel Seoul Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Fair sized room. Has a mini fridge and kettle but no microwave. Good location, close to DDP and several malls."

Travelodge Dongdaemun Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at the Travelodge Dongdaemun! The location is ideal—it’s centrally situated, so you’re never far from the Dongdaemun Market, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and all the downtown sights. Plus, being close to several subway lines made getting anywhere in Seoul super easy. The room was basic, but it was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. After being outside in the heat and humidity all day, coming back to a room with great, individually controlled air conditioning was a lifesaver for a peaceful night's sleep. The front desk staff was also very helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend if you want a clean, convenient base for exploring Seoul!"
