Top Mapo-gu Hotel Reviews

Lotte Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was super helpful and nice."

Glad Mapo

8/10 Good

"Hotel very conveniently located right next to subway entrance. Walking distance to a restaurant and bar street in the area. Room is spacious and clean. However, some of the amenities in the room feel like they r falling apart. Shower drain doesn’t work properly, makeup mirror is water stained and wobbly, back-panel for under the sink cabinet fell off. Electric outlets in the room are a hit and miss too."

Lotte Hotel World

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at this location twice during my vacation in Korea. Both stays were great over all but the second room was a bit less clean and not enough amenities such as a toilet paper and a tissue. However, every staff was still kind and very attentive with guests’ needs. Thank you very much and I would like to stay here again for my next visit."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Me and my husband absolutely love staying at this hotel everytime we are in Seoul. Very convenient in terms of location to transportation: the airport limousine bus drops off a minute away, station access within a couple minutes, and bus stops just a few steps from the entrance of the hotel. There is also a port cochere for easy taxi or car drop offs and pick ups. There is a plethora of food options in every direction, including some nightlife one street behind the hotel. This hotel’s staff is always friendly and respectful, extremely clean, and has a nice view of Gyeongbokgung Palace and the surrounding city. The room size is enough for a couple. We got a room where the toilet room and shower room were separate so that was a plus. One of my favorite amenities that they provide are collagen eye masks which are perfect when you’ve traveled for hours and need a refresh. Highly recommend this hotel for short or long stays. We can’t wait for our next trip to the Hotel Gracery Seoul!"
