This is no-frills, so expect tiny rooms, no luxuries. The bathroom is extremely clean, but note there are no shower curtains, this is a typical style for older hotels.

Top National Museum of Korea Hotel Reviews

ibis Styles Ambassador Seoul Yongsan - Seoul Dragon City

8/10 Good

"I booked a junior suite in late August 2026. Overall the hotel was nice but noticed some wear and tear in the room itself. Nothing that serious though. The staff is friendly and promptly assisted when I asked for new towels. Also the location is great as it’s right next to Yongsan station."

Hotel the Designers Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly courteous staff. Great location. Comfortable bed."

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel, our room was on the 20th floor, sometimes took a while for the lift to come, as people on lower floors would request it first, roof top garden could do with a tidy but overall near to two subway exits, easy to get around and the AirPort Express bus drops you close by approx 150 yards."

Novotel Suites Ambassador Seoul Yongsan - Seoul Dragon City

10/10 Excellent

"Very friendly staff! Rooms were clean and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was excellent! I would highly recommend the hotel. It is also close to the train station."

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Good location. Close to the subway line. Restaurants nearby were all good. Breakfast was good (eggs, etc). Friendly staff"

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel and would definitely stay here again! Check-in was incredibly easy and efficient. We were also able to check in earlier than the standard time by signing up for the hotel’s free loyalty program. The sign-up process was quick and painless, and it was well worth it for the added convenience of getting into our room early. The location is fantastic. The hotel is conveniently close to the train, making it easy to get around, and it’s also within easy reach of Myeongdong Night Market and Namdaemun Market. There were plenty of things to explore, eat, and shop for right nearby, which made the location especially convenient. Another great feature was the washer and dryer in the lobby. You do need cash to use them, but having laundry facilities right at the hotel was incredibly convenient. It meant we could wash clothes during our trip and avoid bringing a suitcase full of dirty laundry home! Our room also had exquisite views of the city and surrounding hills. Waking up to that scenery was definitely a highlight of the stay. Overall, this hotel offered a great combination of convenience, comfort, location, and thoughtful amenities. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily come back again!"
