Location of the hotel is just right at the corner down the road opposite the main Myeongdong shopping street. Our room has a very nice view of the Namsan tower. The room is clean and comfortable with ample space for us to open 2 big luggage for packing. Price is reasonable for its location so will definitely consider this hotel again for our next trip to Seoul.

We booked 2 rooms for 3 persons since the family rooms were full. The rooms were spacious enough to move around and clean. They provide clean towels ,a bottle of water/person everyday and toiletries. Its a small hotel with very limited staff manning the front desk area but for every request you make they deliver. Very good service and they speak English, The hotel is situated across the Myeongdong shopping street, and a lot of places to eat beside the hotel. A 24 hour eatery,Mcdonalds, Paris Baguette, Isaacs across the street and a lot of coffee shoos . The subway station is just a few meters away. We would surely come back for our next trip.

Great hotel to stay in Myeongdong area, just across the road to the main Myeongdong shopping street. Hotel room is spacious complete with self laundry service at the roof top. Best view of the Namsan Tower on the rooftop too. Surrounded by a lot of eatery some are open 24hrs. Subway is just outside the hotel. Highly recommended for anyone who wish to stay in Seoul especially in Myeongdong area.

The room is big enough so we could comfortably moved around. Easy to find the location and it's near subway station. And when you cross the street, there is isaac toast and coffee.. the receptionists can speak basic English.

Hotel is just on the main road in Myeongdong, across the street from the main market and shopping area. Easy walk from the train station and only 5min walk into the Namdeamun market area. Hotel room was not too small, decent size to open up a couple suitcases, modern style and clean. Bathroom has good shower and water pressure. There is a very nice view of the Seoul Tower from their roof top deck, so definitely work a visit during the night. You can catch the bus to the airport just down the road. Definitely can recommend this hotel and would come back.

This hotel is in a great location, directly across from shopping and street food in Myeong-dong. It is about a 3 min walk to the train station and on the corner of a main street so a Taxi can easily find it. It is clean, offers breakfast and is a great mid-range option for staying in the area.

This hotel is clean and look like it's been renovated recently. The toilet is outfitted with a bidet. The included breakfast was good, one of the best in our stay in South korea (which included 7 different hotel/hostels/b&b) and offered lots of varied food. The mattress we had was easy firmer then my liking.
