ROYAL HOTEL SEOUL Myeongdong
10/10 Excellent
"A well run and comfortable hotel in a great location. Would definitely stay here again."
THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울
10/10 Excellent
"Comfortable and clean."
Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong
8/10 Good
"The hotel is in an excellent location for exploring Myeongdong and beyond (short walk to metro). We found the room very comfortable with good amenities. Very good breakfast and friendly, professional staff. Being in the centre of Myeongdong it's in an area that's pedestrianised in the evenings, so you may have to walk a short way with luggage. We hadn't realised that there is no restaurant or bar, but there plenty of eateries in the area."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONDONG 1
10/10 Excellent
"After an early disembarkation from a cruise, we had originally booked a different hotel in this lively, bustling district of Seoul but upon arrival, that hotel was just not for us (I'm being kind). We found this one as a "Hail Mary" and were so appreciative that they had a room. Upon arrival well before check-in time, the staff allowed us to safely store our baggage and loaned us an umbrella. We relieved many hours later to an immaculate room with a great view and a deep soaking tub which was fabulous. The ability to do laundry was a huge plus, and, in the morning, complementary locked luggage storage was great. Overall, an awesome hotel with great staff right in the heart of it all!"
Migliore Hotel Seoul Myeongdong
10/10 Excellent
"Clean, helpful, and very foreigner friendly. Room was a little dated, and only had outlets on the other side of the room."
