"I had the best stay at Hostel Tommy - it is literally seconds away from Ikseon-dong Hanok Village (one of the coolest places as a visitor) and a 3-min walk from Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station, making it super convenient and accessible. There is a 7-eleven right next to the hostel which is such a plus. The vibe was so homey and cozy, I felt incredibly safe and taken care of as a female solo traveller. The room was so comfortable too, I almost did not want to leave my room, haha! A huge shoutout to the...

"Clean room, good location. My only feedback is better English instructions for the luggage storage room. We ended up contacting the virtual help desk who sorted us out in 5 minutes. We apparently needed to place our palms on the door code before entering the numbers. The other thing was a very bright exit sign in the room that we wish we could have covered as we prefer to sleep in total darkness, but otherwise a great stay. Very convenient!"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Staff is very nice and helpful, the rooms are clean and comfortable, the breakfast is great and location is convenient."

Hanok Hotel DAAM

8/10 Good

"Spotlessly clean and very conveniently located. My first time staying in a hotel like this. The bed was very comfortable and there is space under it for your suitcase which means climbing up into the bed—a little challenging after a long day of walking around. The cubby was very warm at night. The other guests were very considerate but inevitably there is some noise; I would suggest earplugs. All that being said: it was comfortable, safe, very clean, convenient and a good value. I would absolutely stay again."

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

10/10 Excellent

"Location and suite were perfect. I would stay again."

Hotel Yaja Jongno

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Yaja Jongno is a well-positioned hotel both away from the busy evening street noise, down the next street from Ikseon Hanok Village (for cafes and restaurants) and 2 streets away from the main street where all the limousine airport buses run. Our hotel room (Deluxe Room no. 606) was great. (We had a brand new mattress while we stayed there as all the hotel mattresses were replaced). All snacks in our fridge were replaced for free each day The metro station, Jongno 3 (Sam) Ga is 1 minute away from the hotel - so convenient. Changdeokung Palace is a short walk away from the hotel too. Would recommend this hotel for a great stay around the Jongno area. 😀"
