Top Hwanghak-dong Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and facilities! smaller room but that is expected of Japanese hotels. washer and dryer on the hotel premises was super useful! walking distance to the night market!"

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."
