Excellent location with great value for money. Directly across from the Lotte Department Store and within a 5 minute walking distance from Myeongdong shopping streets. Closest subway would be Euljiro 1-ga (5 mins walk) but you can walk to the Myeongdong station easily and be totally distracted with the shopping on the way there. Innumerable street food, restaurants and cafes... More

I know I checked friends, but I stayed with my brother and nobody else, so close enough! The hotel is right by Myeongdong, not even 5 minutes of walking. If you don't want the hotel breakfast (which I sadly didn't try), you can choose out of many cafes all around the hotel, the closest being one in the ground floor... More

We traveled to Seoul to adopt our son and did a lot of research prior to going about where to stay. Over and over again we kept coming back to Myeong-dong as being the most centrally located to all that we wanted to do in the city center and once we narrowed it down to that location, the Ibis was...

The Ibis Ambassador is located in the heart of Myeong-dong which is a great central location in Seoul in the heart of the shopping district, but still close to other attractions. The hotel staff were excellent and best of all there was fast and free wireless internet throughout the hotel - a real bonus when you travel on business.

The hotel is in excellent location for shopping and walk around town, rooms are very clean, even though a bit small size, no space for lugguages if stay two persons. Quiet amidst buzzling main shopping area. the room rate was quite pricy in high season, however highly recommended.

Ibis Myeongdong Hotel is the best Ibis hotel I have been so far in the Asian region. The facilities are excellent and the concierge guys at the level 1 lobby were very helpful to me and my mom.
