Hi Seoul Hostel Myeongdong Central ★★
"Room type: 5m square for single occupancy Pro: Locate at the beginning of the Myeongdong walking street, within 5 mins walking distance from Myeong Dong Station. Window can be opened but cannot smoke, meanwhile the noise from outside blocked very well. Staff at check out will help u to carry the luggage if u can find a staff. Room is clean with a strong hair dryer, unlimited Bottles of water, water machine that provides hot water in Corridor, and there is a mini fridge under the bed. The room is 5m square but it is enough to put a big size luggage. Most important, bed and blanket is soft. Con: No Lift! From my picture u will see the entrace of the hostel, it is locate at 3rd and 4th floor. check in is mainly rely on kiosk locate on 3rd floor, so better not assume there will be staff to help u. And be prepared that the closest Myeongdong station exit is No.4 which has not lift too, only stairs. Wall is thin, so it depends on your luck that if u have a noisy neighbour or not. I can hear clearly when my neighbour talking on phone."
Oriens Hotel & Residences Myeongdong ★★★★
"I have stayed here as the business traveller and i found this place very good. I highly recommend to plan you stay here if you are in seoul as this is very close to the seoul tower and other tourist locations."
D.A.L Premium Capsule Hotel(WOMAN/MAN ONLY)
"The hotel is very close to Dongdaemun Exit 4 and the bus stop. Walking alone at night might be a bit scary, but for a solo traveler, it's a clean and perfectly adequate hotel. For breakfast, they offer bread and toast, as well as instant noodles. They even provide a complimentary eye mask and toothbrushes."
COMOCASA residence ★★
"convenient location, a few minutes' walk to 2 subway stations. Walk 15 minutes to Myeongdong. Much room for improving the cleanliness, the stain on bed sheets, the cups and utensils....."
HOTEL BLISS Myeongdong
"The front desk staff are kind and the room is clean with modern appliances. The hotel is conveniently located about a 5-minute walk from Myeongdong Station, and there's a convenience store right next door. While the shower and toilet are combined and it's not a luxurious stay, it's perfectly sufficient if you're just looking for a place to sleep."
Hotel Newv Gangnam Seoul ★★★
"The hotel is currently undergoing significant renovations on its ground floor. Consequently, the reception has been temporarily relocated to a smaller room on the 5th floor. Guests must navigate through the renovation site when entering and exiting the premises daily. The hotel room itself is commendably clean and comfortable. However, in adherence to government green policies, the hotel no longer provides amenities such as toothbrushes and toothpaste. Furthermore, it lacks a bathtub, which deviates from the illustrative photo presented on the booking platform. Its location is highly advantageous, situated merely 300 meters from Seolleung MRT Station (Lines 2 & 3), offering convenient access to major tourist attractions. Additionally, a diverse array of restaurants and cafes can be found in the immediate vicinity."
HOTEL DRIP&DROP Myeongdong ★★★
"everything was good. they serve hot black coffee every morning! i think the capacity quite big, very near to subway and it located exactly at myeongdong market! what i didnt like is the luggage room, its to small for the capacity. its hard to unpack your stuff when everyone moving around in the hallway area."
Hotel The Designers DDP ★★★
"The location is pretty good and generally user-friendly. Aside from the cleanliness needing improvement, the price is quite reasonable! Transportation is convenient, and it's close to both Dongdaemun and Myeongdong."
New Chonji Hotel ★★★
"Overall good, not a busy area, walking distance to Gwangjang market. There will be no air conditional during winter, so room without window will be quite stuffy. Vending machine for snack, coffee machine, microwave, hot water available at reception. Can store luggage before checkin and after checkout."

L’Escape, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seoul Myeongdong
Elegant luxury hotel that blends classic European design with refined dining and sophisticated city vibes.
The Grand Lotte Seoul (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)
"It's refurbished, but clean, and the price isn't high, so it's still reasonable. However, it's probably best to stay elsewhere for the first few days and then move to Lotte when you're ready to shop, as it's very convenient. The most important thing is to bring cash, as you *must* use a card. I didn't have a credit card, so I had to scramble for cash."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONGDONG 1
"This hotel's only redeeming quality is its convenient location, and nothing else! The room was tiny, and the mirror was directly facing the bed. We checked in at night, and since we were hungry and wanted to grab a quick meal, we just decided to make do. But in the middle of the night, my daughter started screaming, which startled me. It was just my daughter and me, and we didn't speak the local language, so I stayed up all night with the lights on until morning when I contacted my husband back home and asked him to reach out to Trip.com! My daughter and I went to the outlet mall. Trip.com was very responsible and helped me contact the hotel, saying they could change our room, but it had to be before 2 PM! You can imagine, with the outlet mall being over an hour's bus ride away, how could I possibly get back before 2 PM? That day, my daughter and I were stuck in that dreadful room again! The only good thing was that Trip.com contacted the hotel and had them cover the mirror for me! Because the bed and mirror were less than 30 centimeters apart, it took the hotel staff a long time to tape up the cloth, as there was no space for a stool! Plus, this room, 809, had intermittent vibrating noises in the middle of the night! We didn't get a new room until the third day! A male front desk staff member who spoke Chinese contacted me, and he was very kind, showing me to the new room."
Friendly DH Naissance Hotel by Mindrum Group
"This hotel has a great location, close to the BTS Skytrain and in a university area with plenty of food options. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff provide excellent service. The small breakfast is tasty and enough to get you started. It's the best value for money in the area. You can take the airport bus directly to the hotel; it's only about a 200-meter walk. I was very impressed and will definitely come back again. Highly recommended!"
Shilla Stay Mapo (Hongdae)
"This hotel had everything myself and my partner could have asked for. Very clean, comfortable room and bed and a nice bath and bathroom. The staff are very friendly and the person who helped me to check-in had perfect English. Highly recommended."
New Blanc Central Myeongdong
"The cup had lipstick stuck to it that wouldn't wash off. I rinsed it several times in the bathroom, but it still felt sticky. The windows in the room were dusty, and the mattress was hard, and the pillows were uncomfortable; I had to use a cushion to finally fall asleep. I'm not sure if it's because the room was too small, but it felt incredibly dusty, even though it looked very neat and new. The bathroom had an unbearable smell. I even put two bath towels over the drain, but it didn't stop the sewer smell. The staff themselves admitted that their hotel bathrooms smell bad, and air fresheners didn't help. The room was already small, and having such a strong smell in the bathroom was really quite miserable. There were also mosquitoes, and the hotel didn't provide mosquito repellent or any other such remedies. I definitely won't be booking a second time. I was fooled by appearances; even the snacks and pastries on the 18th floor were just things like 'cat's ear' biscuits that no one eats."
