Top Seongbuk-dong Hotel Reviews

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our 4 days stay here. Clean room with a nice little window overlooking the cathedral church. Perfect location and free portable charger for you to take with you when you go out. I highly recommend this place for those visiting Seoul for the first time, just like us! Everything we needed was walking distance. Loved our stay and chatting with other travelers during breakfast!"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL GURO

10/10 Excellent

"Lotte City Hotel Guro was a great hotel to stay at. The hotel is well kept and the staff was nice and very helpful. Location wise, it was between a 25 to 35-minute train ride from everywhere I wanted to go around Seoul. It was around a 5-10 minute walk away from the nearest train station. The neighborhood the hotel was based in had a lot to offer as well (convenience stores, malls, restaurants, etc.). The gym, outdoor terrace, and onsite laundromat were great. It is also right by a bus stop that takes you to ICN airport which was very convenient. Would stay here again."
