Heungnyunsa Temple

My stay was a bit disappointing, especially when it came to the room. I stayed in a room with two twin beds, and I honestly didn’t expect it to be so small and cramped. There was no in-room safe to secure valuables while sightseeing, and basic amenities such as toothbrushes required an additional charge. Other essentials, like cotton swabs, were also not provided. The TV and toilet controls did not offer English translation, which made them difficult to use. On the positive side, the hotel was quiet, and I never heard noise from neighboring rooms, suggesting good soundproofing. The breakfast and dinner buffets offered plenty of selections, and the food was really good. The restaurant was also very clean, and the staff were helpful and accommodating. Overall, I appreciate the good food and excellent service from the staff, but considering the price I paid, I honestly don’t feel the experience was worth the money. The room size and lack of basic amenities made the stay less comfortable than expected. Unfortunately, I don’t think I would choose to stay here again.

The room was nice, clean but I am not a fan of carpet on the floor, so that made me a bit uncomfortable. The room overall was also a little dated and could use a refresh. However, I would definitely stay here again. My room had a fantastic view of the temple and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The location is also fantastic- walkable to the palaces, Cheonggyecheon Stream, Bukchon Hanok Villiage, great shopping and places for snacks or meals. The staff were very friendly and helpful and overall it is a great place to stay!
