"Although the location and price are slightly tempting, do not stay here. We stayed in a triple room and there were many problems: -> Room had no hot water -> Washroom was covered in black mold -> Washroom was not cleaned before our arrival -> Washing machine was broken -> Fridge empty but not cleaned and had a pile of mold -> "Breakfast" is a bag of bread and another bag of jam although it wasn't restocked and was only there for one of the days. No refund was given although they did offer us...

Top Sungin-dong Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"I’m satisfied"

Toyoko Inn Seoul Gangnam

10/10 Excellent

"The single room I stayed in was compact, but much more spacious than other single rooms I've set tayed in. Had everything I needed, even a big desk to work from. Breakfast is Korean style, which might not suit some western tastes. Lobby is basic and small, if that matters to you, but has hot and chilled water and a microwave you can use. Overall a great location near public transport that will get you anywhere in the city. Will absolutely be checking this hotel for availability next time I'm in Seoul."

Toyoko Inn Seoul Yeongdeungpo

8/10 Good

"This was a very popular, efficient hotel in a convenient location. The room was small, but well planned. Breakfast was a buffet with a wide choice of Korean items, Seating Table was somewhat limited when I was there. The desk attendants were very helpful, and were able to speak English. They provided me with a map of the amazing subway system and identified the stops that I would need for my exploration of the city. The bus stop to arrive and depart for the Incheon Airport was just a 10 minute walk away. Many stores and restaurants are nearby."

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Very nice and friendly staff. They all lead with speaking English. A lot of non Koreans there. Reasonably priced buffet breakfast for a good spread. Gym is tiny - one chest press, dumbbells, two treadmills, water bubbler. Rooms relatively small but nicely furnished. Best water pressure in shower. Would recommend but on the pricier side"
