Top Dongdaemun History and Culture Park Hotel Reviews

Hotel Skypark Kingstown Dongdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Our second stay at this hotel. It is not in a touristy part of town, but centrally located to the popular touristy spots and immersion with locals. Rooms are fairly priced, clean, and safe. The hotel has washers and dryers if you need to refresh your clothes. There are many places to eat nearby; several coffee/drink places, a great bakery, and great restaurants."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"Clean room, but it was really small. Little room for suitcases or for moving. The room however did have everything you need and a few nice touches - face masks, bath salts etc. Hotel in good location."

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

8/10 Good

"Great premier residence room, large space and comfortable setup"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Room and hotel were very clean. Very lovely staff. Great location to public transit. Surrounded by construction, so a bit noisy and dirty. Bed is very comfortable and in room storage and appliances were great. Room 2015 - the door had issues locking all week. Elevators were slow."

New Blanc Central Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were super helpful they even let me keep my suitcase safe while I went to Busan and Jeju for 7 days. The laundry service was helpful and the location is great for getting to other key spots and attending day trips. The room was smaller than expected but that's what you get for "cozy" size but the lounge area made up for that with unlimited coffee. I would definitely stay here again"

The Shilla Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent staffs and clean room."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL DONGDAEMUN

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Nine Tree was excellent. At first, the Junior Double was too tiny for two people. It might be just spacious for one person. We had to upgrade to double twin which was much more spacious for two people. The hotel was so accommodating and our room was upgraded with no extra charge with a better view to the park. Mr. Kim was very understanding and helpful. The cleaning staff were very friendly. Overall, I would strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Dongdaemun

8/10 Good

"Great location. Options for late check out. Happy to have an air filter and humidifier available in the room. Housekeeping was not consistent. Area under the beds had not been cleaned in some time."

Travelodge Dongdaemun Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and the bed was comfortable to sleep on. The location was also close to the bus stop and subway station which made transportation very easy."
