"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

"Good location. Good clean room but no mirrors in the bedroom. (We had a two bedroom suite). Great bathroom. Breakfast good. Good coffee. Staff at reception welcoming. Staff in breakfast not so friendly/welcoming or even say hello. You can wait a while for the lifts in peak time. You have to pay for luggage storage!"

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

10/10 Excellent

"The location is unbeatable - just steps from the subway, close to major tourist attractions in Myeongdong, and right next to a huge department store. The staff are incredibly accommodating, genuinely welcoming, and speak excellent English, making every interaction effortless and pleasant. Our room in the Executive Tower was in excellent condition and our city view was amazing. This is the first hotel I’ve stayed at that truly lives up to the VIP Access expectations. From the outstanding service to the fantastic location, everything exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area."

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

"This was great place for walking to so many sites and for access to public transportation. I had the small room and it was all I needed. Great for sole traveler."

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Hotel itself ideally located for most things, but even in deluxe room furniture pretty basic, but beds comfy. Breakfast was OK but no Black/Breakfast tea, only Earl Grey or fruit teas, Coffee from machine was lukewarm but if you ask for hot milk they will bring it. After a long day site-seeing was disappointed to find that there nowhere to get a drink in evening, small lounge on 17th floor but only sold spirits. oh for a glass of wine. Most of the staff had reasonable English, whereas I had no Korean, and were very helpful."

UH Continental SeoulCenter

8/10 Good

"Hotel was right in front of a subway entrance which made commuting very handy. Room was spacious and clean. Staff was not very helpful...I had requested non feather pillows and bedding (extremely allergic) and I was told that the entire hotel only had feather pillows!!!! I asked for a recommendation for where I could buy a pillow in the morning and the girl said she would let me know but she never did. There are no towel hooks (towels kept at entrance of room and not in the actual bathroom) and no face cloths. Rooms very clean"

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and breakfest was the best in the world. We will book again when visiting seoul."
