Top Lock Museum Hotel Reviews

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay at Lotte City Myeongdong - and would stay here again or recommend to friends visiting Seoul for the first time. Just located slightly away for the busiest parts of Myeongdong so perfect to come back to and walk about from. Check-in was easy and the staff allowed us to check in 3 hours early which was perfect. Room was clean and tidy with the expected amenities. Only thing missing was an iron but there is an ironing room on the 3rd floor. Bathroom is a good size with a modern Japanese-style toilet. A perfect stay all around!"
