"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!"

Top Chilgung Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good

"Nice big clean room"

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

10/10 Excellent

"Awesome 5 star hotel as expected."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Quiet rooms, even though you are right in the heart of the city. Has an air purifier fan in every room if you like white noise. Nice and clean. Highly recommend!"

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

10/10 Excellent

"Very simple design. Bed very comfortable. Housekeeping staff was excellent, very attentive to our needs. Desk staff spoke multiple languages. Very courteous and kind."

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

8/10 Good

"Decent hotel in a central location. Rooms spacious and clean, feel a tad dated, but bed comfortable and with all expected amenities. Friendly staff."

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Nice and quiet, great location from all the stores in myeongdong and not too far from the station! Perfect stay for solo traveling"

UH Continental SeoulCenter

10/10 Excellent

"I'm sure many are enamored with the giant tub in the middle of the room. Somehow I initially read it as a hot tub but it's just a regular tub and we used it exactly 1 time. It's actually too big to be comfortable. It's not ergonomically designed to include or relax. It's all hard right angles so best you can do is sit awkwardly. And takes forever to fill given how big it is so you start to feel guilty about all the water you're using. Aside from that novelty of an amenity, the rooms are very nice and spacious. The onsite staff is helpful and reachable via WhatsApp or Kakao (no phones in rooms). The location is superb if you're visiting the major sites in Jongno. Overall I'd highly recommend and would stay there again. Note to the property though: a hook or two in the bathroom was so desperately wanted. Seems like a small thing but it'd be nice to hang up the bathrobe or towels."

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"Generously sized room and bathroom, great selection at the breakfast buffet. Safe location and right next to a metro station, several bus routes and the airport bus."

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

10/10 Excellent

"Location and suite were perfect. I would stay again."
