"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

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Parking was plentiful. We had a wonderful view of Gyeongbokgung Palace. Proximity to Namdaemun Market and Myeongdong was ideal. The exterior and surrounding area was clean with a nice sitting area outside of Starbucks. Room was small but we were there to sightsee, not stay in a hotel room. Air conditioning was superb! The mattress was hard but pillows and blankets were perfect. Amenities included collagen eye patches, bubble bath, slippers, waters, and more. We had 2 rooms, one of the rooms did not have the eye patches but I’m sure they would have provided them if we called the front desk. The elevators were fast and felt safe. Will definitely stay here again."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is immaculate and clean. The staff are super helpful. The room had ample amenities. We had a premier suite so had the washing machine dryer kitchenette etc and was very comfortable with all the modern equipment. Location is great, its walkable distance from the main tourist attractions. There’s a convenience store at the hotel which offers tax free service. And another convenience store just behind the hotel. We added breakfast which was also very nice. Fresh quality food with very efficient staff. We didn’t have English breakfast tea in our room so if you’re a tea drinker then you’ll need to bring your.own. However the highlight of my stay was their premium shampoo, conditioner and body wash! I NEED to find out where to get them. Had an amazing time! Thank you everyone at Hotel the Botanik."

New Blanc Central Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Very modern and clean hotel. Staff very friendly. Myeondong is 2 stops away on the green line or get the bus just outside the the hotel to Myeondong station. Hotel airport bus is also just outside the hotel. Not much outside the hotel, a 7 eleven very handy. Washing machine and dryer in hotel is excellent. Very clean and modern. huge 65 inch TV. Although room is very small just enough is walk round."
