Top Alive Museum Hotel Reviews

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONDONG 2

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. Be aware that basic amenities like toothpaste can only be had from a vending machine in the lobby. I think this is a Korean thing, not specific to this hotel, but surprising for people used to traveling in places like the US and Japan."

Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong

10/10 Excellent

"The location is ideal for all your shopping desires and needs, but the area can be over crowded and over stimulating if that’s not your vibe. Best part of the hotel is the reception staff and greeters. They are so nice and go above and beyond to satisfy your needs."

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL (Formerly: Lotte Hotel Seoul)

8/10 Good

"I requested makeup room, but I was pushed back for three hours because they have a priority rooms to be cleaned. My room was never mad up because I had to give up and rest. It was unacceptable. I left at 11 AM came back at 2 pm.It still wasn’t done. That was the only thing."

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"This property pleasantly surprised us with its great value, convenient location, cleanliness, and friendly staff. We especially loved the indoor swimming pool and it was the perfect way to relax and unwind after a long day of shopping and sightseeing in busy Korea! We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Korea!"

N285 Hotel Insadong

10/10 Excellent

"My stay was amazing! Clean, amazing staff and shops nearby"

Hotel Gracery Seoul

8/10 Good

"The room was compact but if you’ve stayed at one of their hotels before, you’ll know the rooms are well layed out to maximise the space. I had a north facing room with a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hotel had a convenience store next door and a stone throw away from Namdaemun market. Very handy that the viral Hotteok shop (outside the IBK bank) is only 3min away and 10min walk to the main Myeongdong shopping area. It was really convenient taking the bus from the airport to the hotel, stops at the Main Street and a short walk to the hotel. Overall the location was super convenient, close to City Hall station and walking distance to a lot of places of interest."

Step Inn Myeongdong 1

10/10 Excellent

"This is a budget hotel, but it provided everything we needed. Great location and the staff were super helpful. Breakfast was okay, but then again this is a budget hotel. Only problem is that the bed was hard for us. Staff are more than eager to help and spoke English very well."

AMID HOTEL SEOUL

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were always clean and staff was friendly and helpful!"

The Prima Hotel Jongno Insadong

10/10 Excellent

"Room is very clean and well supplemented. Free water bottle everyday for every guest is a plus. Towels are replaced everyday and you don't have to request it. Breakfast is superb. One time we cannot avail their breakfast as we had to leave early for a tour so they gave us free delicious sandwich. Excellent service. High recommended!"
