Jongno-1.2.3.4 ga-dong, 0.8 km from Central Buddhist Museum

"I had the best stay at Hostel Tommy - it is literally seconds away from Ikseon-dong Hanok Village (one of the coolest places as a visitor) and a 3-min walk from Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station, making it super convenient and accessible. There is a 7-eleven right next to the hostel which is such a plus. The vibe was so homey and cozy, I felt incredibly safe and taken care of as a female solo traveller. The room was so comfortable too, I almost did not want to leave my room, haha! A huge shoutout to the...

"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

Top Central Buddhist Museum Hotel Reviews

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

8/10 Good

"Location is great however really busy. Which means it’s not that quiet in the suite. You can hear noises from neighbouring suites. Also the cleaning staff start cleaning well before checkout time (around 8-ish when check out is 11am) which adds to more noise. Overall the hotel is good and no general concerns."

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice location and friendly front staff. They are extremely generous with the amenities. Room was very spacious and great. Only stayed for 2 nights for location close to seoul station. Will definitely stay here again for more nights. Couple restaurants right in front of the hotel as well and convenience store."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"Very well situated and convenient. Extremely comfortable room. Beds were great!"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"The amenities in the room were a lifesaver. I got the room with two bedrooms which was basically a small apartment. It came equipped with a small kitchen, washer and dryer, and even a closet steamer so you can look good every day. The view of Namsan tower was also great and we could not have asked for a better location--convenient but not too busy with people. Will definitely be staying here again."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"Room, staff, everything was really good, with the exception of breakfast. In 6 nights I only had it twice as it wasn't very good at all. The second time I tried it I was sick afterwards."
