Top Sungnyemun Gate Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff . Has lockers for luggages since we arrived early prior to check in time . A weighing scale for the luggages which is a plus for shoppers while on vacation"

Crown Park Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"Our families stay at the Crown Park was very nice. It’s location and price is why we chose to stay here. Our rooms were small, clean and had just what you needed. Check-in and out was a breeze. We really enjoyed the breakfast buffet. It had so much to choose from and the price can’t be beat. Laundry on the 3rd floor was useful, 2 washers and dryers 5000 won for each use. Only wished the room had an iron for some wrinkles. The staff were very professional and helpful with all questions we had."

Hotel Manu Seoul Station

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean and the staff were friendly, the building is relatively modern and the location next to Seoul station is amazing and is the only reason we picked this hotel. There is a restaurant on the bottom floor which looked quite nice, reception is on the second floor. The rooms were okay but the lack of plug sockets was so annoying, we had to unplug a lamp which didn't work and ended up plugging our phones to charge in the bathroom (which had 2 eu sockets) they had a line of adapters with normal USB sockets, everything uses USB-C now unfortunately. We had a decent stay here and it did the job."
