Top Hwanghak-dong Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent convenient location and spacious rooms. Staff were helpful."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Fabulous location. Amazing housekeeping staff. Wonderful amenities. We booked the suite for a family of four. There was a sliding glass door for one room and no door in the second room. No privacy at all. There is also only one washroom so be warned. The elevators are super slow. The air conditioning system is loud."

Roynet Hotel Seoul Mapo

10/10 Excellent

"I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel! The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. I also really appreciated how quiet it was—there was very little outside noise, which made it easy to relax and get a good night’s sleep. Overall, I had a great experience and would definitely stay here again!"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"This property pleasantly surprised us with its great value, convenient location, cleanliness, and friendly staff. We especially loved the indoor swimming pool and it was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a long day of shopping and sightseeing in busy Korea! We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Korea!"

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."
