Top Bongwonsa Temple Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"Front desk staff are superb. Beds and room were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was good. Hotel location for uber/taxi was a bit awkward but manageable. Stationary bike in gym was broken."

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"The property itself is lovely. But the staff is exceptional. Professional, highly responsive, accommodating and made everything feel easier (we had a 2 year toddler)."

Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Myeongdong

8/10 Good

"Good not great - I booked one of the character themed rooms on the 14th. These are more expensive. The themed decor is excellent. However the room is not really fit for two adults - only one wide table and only one charger near the bed. The chargers on the desk didn’t work and the far charger near the tv was low voltage and so took a she to do anything. The air con is centrally maintained and during our stay was too cold. Also the vents don’t appear to have been cleaned. When opting to open the window this is behind the desk and if open the curtains aren’t thick enough to keep any light out with the window closed (the window has a blind on it). The entire room (likely as the window is never open and the air on never cleaned) is very musky and humid. A dehumidifier is provided but with the lack of functional plugs it wasn’t possible to use this. The bathroom was fine but the shower head desperately needed cleaning. The real selling points of this hotel were the location and the excellent buffet breakfast"

LOTTE CITY HOTEL MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and nice accommodations. Made the travel easy!"

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast included could use a few more western friendly additions mackerel and Indian food first thing in the morning isn’t"

UH Continental SeoulCenter

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful stay and very convenient location. Walking distance to a lot of shopping and activities. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Super easy check and out process"

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

8/10 Good

"Por lo pagado no hay mucho que decir, si viajas buscando usar el hotel solo para dormir la ubicación es magnífica. El personal es amable , puedes dejar tus maletas si sales. La verdad no hay quejas"

Roynet Hotel Seoul Mapo

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel exceeded our expectations. The staff and the accommodations were excellent. Rooms were extremely clean and upgraded. It is no surprise that JAL has their crew stay at this hotel. It is located in area with plenty of food options. Our next stay in Seoul would be at this hotel!"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is very helpful. The location is the best you can get if you want to be in the middle of Meyongdong. The rooms in Seoul are small, this one felt larger. AC wasn’t working but it wasn’t that hot in October. Building is in good shape. The shower doors need to be closed, in Seoul most hotel showers are half glass so water gets everywhere."
