"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 THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"The hotel was in an excellent location that made it easy to get to via the Metro and also easy to walk to many of the sights around. Many other aspects of the room and facilities were excellent. The 2 things preventing this being a 5 star review were the breakfast which was good but without a huge choice and was not replenished as much as we would expect, and the layout of the suite which was quite cramped with too few lights and sockets and a bizarrely placed tv."

Dongdaemun Stay Garden

8/10 Good

"Very convenient if you want to enjoy the city due to proximity to transport"

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location and clean room"

Hotel Skypark Kingstown Dongdaemun

New Blanc Central Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Small rooms, but very well designed and good use of space. Excellent location, and easiest/fastest check in/check out I've ever had."

Toyoko Inn Seoul Dongdaemun No.2

10/10 Excellent

"Good place to stay!"

K-Grand Hotel DDP

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL DONGDAEMUN

10/10 Excellent

"It was my second time staying at this hotel. Same as last time, very pleased with the overall experience - very friendly and helpful staff, clean room, useful amenities, well-maintained facilities, and convenient location. Will consider choosing it again next time."

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."
