"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!"

Top Jongmyo Shrine Hotel Reviews

New Blanc Central Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were super helpful they even let me keep my suitcase safe while I went to Busan and Jeju for 7 days. The laundry service was helpful and the location is great for getting to other key spots and attending day trips. The room was smaller than expected but that's what you get for "cozy" size but the lounge area made up for that with unlimited coffee. I would definitely stay here again"
