Top Hyehwamun Gate Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"We stayed at Hotel the Botanik twice totally 10 days with our 2 kids. We would definitely stay here again. Pros: very clean, enough space in the room with kitchenette, centrally located, nice view from roof. Cons: main bedroom has a glass wall and second bedroom has no door meaning it's hard not to disturb others who are sleeping. Games room was very expensive and not included. Staff will tell you there is nowhere to get coffee in the morning except Emart but you can get coffee at Paris Baguette in the Subway very nearby at 7am."

Travelodge Myeongdong Euljiro

10/10 Excellent

"Location was great! Super easy access to subways. Easy access to the heart of Seoul. Quiet at night. Cafes and convenience stores near by. Friendly and very Kind staffs. There is wowpass kiosk in the lobby for me to purchase a card and charge money and withdraw money. Unfortunately, there is no warter bottle, toothbrush, tooth paste are provided. However, there is a cold water fountain in each floor to refill. And there is vending machine to buy toothbrush, toothpaste and more in the lobby. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash were provided. I added breakfast for my stay. It was delicious. Many options. Having breakfast here saved time for looking for what and where to eat in the morning. I wanded to spend as much time asnpossible to explore Seoul, so I thought it was a smart idea for me. Room was small, but clean. Comfortable! "

Arirang Hill Hotel Dongdaemun

6/10 Okay

"There was dust on the furniture in every piece of furniture. That means the cleaning was not done well. So I wiped off all the dust. The breakfast was relatively neat and tasty but, it was boring because there was no change in the side dishes. The staff were relatively friendly but even though there was a currency exchange place there, the employee who didn't know the area directed me to another distant place. So I had a hard time finding a currency exchange office."

Snowflower Guesthouse

8/10 Good

"Guesthouse is very affordable for those that are on a tight budget like I was on when I went. The location is great because it is next to so many convenient things like a Daiso or a supermarket. What makes it extra nice is that there is small kitchen to grab a free ramen. The only negative thing I will say is that I didn't enjoy how small the room was and you can hear every little noise from other guests. Overall, if you don't want to pay a lot of money for hotel and still would like a convenient place to stay, then the Snowflower Guesthouse is the right place for you."

Friendly DH Naissance Hotel by Mindrum Group

4/10 Poor

"Very poor! Food is not fresh, not appetizing, not enough options, room was dark , uninviting. You don’t feel like staying in the room, you don’t want to come back. Staff, at recent was very accommodating but staff who refills your soap, coffee, did not leave coffee at all, we had to leave a note to please leave some. There was only one glass supplied in the room, we had to ask more from the reception. Bathroom floor was always wet, not sure if the tub was leaking or the toilet was leaking. Room needs update."

ibis Ambassador Seoul Insadong (Newly renovated in 2025)

8/10 Good

"Breakfast buffet had vegan options, however, the daily offering was minimal. Given the few options, what was offered was very delicious, just had to eat a lot of 2 or 3 items. No protein offering on my second day. Tofu would have been nice besides nuts. "
