We stayed for 6 nights. We chose it for the location in Myeong-dong. If you are arriving by airport shuttle or subway, be prepared to carry your luggage uphill a bit (it is about 3 minutes walk) and up the stairs as there is no lift. It is easy to find following the directions from the Residence EO website. The... More

I stayed 5 nights with my family here and we all had a great time! Good location and very close to the subway station, with many nice local restaurants around. The room is small but clean with washing machine. The breakfast is simple but ok, no lift but the staff are quite helpful and friendly.

Stayed for 2 nights. Location was perfect compared to other hostels in the area... not too far from Myeongdong and Seoul Tower. Stayed at the second floor and had to carry my heavy luggage up the stairs. Would definately advise to book ground floor rooms if you have heavy luggages. Room is clean with TV, washing machine, sink and fridge.... More

Location is perfect... few mins to Myeongdong subway & shopping district. About 10 mins walk to the Namsan cable car station. I can see the beautiful Seoul Tower every night when we return back to EO. The owner, Mr Lee is very chatty & friendly. As we will be staying in the ski restort on 1 of the night during... More

This place is located near Myeong Dong station (take exit 3). As you come out from the station, you will see Pacific Hotel and go all the way up (on your left) until you reach a convenient store known a Ministop on your right and Residence EO is directly opposite. For first time guests, please bring along your toiletries as... More

We booked a double room for 4 nights in November 2012. The residence is very clean, new, and secure, conveniently located just 3 minutes walk from subway and Myeongdong shopping area. Which is good because it is nice and quiet at night. As per the other reviews, Mr. Lee and his front desk staff speak English very well and are... More

This was my 1st visit to Seoul, 2 days for leisure after 5 days of work at Yeosu. My friend and I were lucky to get the room, after several attempts online to get others from our country. Hostels are booked fast within 2 months in Seoul, so plan early! Based on previous trip advisor reviews, I booked this one.... More

If Myeong-dong location is a must then Residence EO is located well. What we liked about it was the location and security of this place. Other than that, nothing too outstanding and it does the job. Don't expect a hotel, it is more like a small one room with everything it it.

This is my 3rd trip to Seoul. Last year we stayed at Ib Ville, which is along the same road but further up. EO is new and modern, perhaps I should just summarize into few key points: The Good: - location is very near to myeongdong station, mini mart is just opposite and there are some restaurants nearby - new,...
