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!"

THE GRAND LOTTE SEOUL - 더그랜드롯데 서울

8/10 Good

"Outstanding! Staff are very courteous. Room/linen- sheets -towels/ smell of the room/amenities/are all excellent. Only one suggestion: There’s two bathrobe - good quality, however, I recommend to make the other bathrobe bigger than the other one- for man size. My husband was not able to use it as it was small for him. Overall - excellent!!"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"2 bedroom suite was spacious for family of 5. The windows can open for fresh air. The in-suite washing machine was useful. There was smart steam closet that refresh, sanitize, de-wrinkle, and dry clothes right on their hangers using steam and hot air."

NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL INSADONG

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel. Insa-dong is a great neighborhood, near many cultural sites, fab shopping, art and excellent food. We visited many other areas but were always happy to return to this location. The front desk staff were extremely helpful and patient with us as we don’t speak the language. We had a deluxe twin room with a view of the Jogyesa temple which is lit up at night (across the street). Btw, their twin beds are larger than standard American twins. The room was extremely clean and efficient. One of our favorite parts was the Korean buffet breakfast (it also included plenty of American items; the selection & quality was amazing.). We had it for 5 days straight and didn’t tire of it. We also enjoyed the beautiful, large lounge area, access only for hotel guests. They also have complimentary large storage lockers if you’re checking-out, but need to store luggage during the day. Overall, we were very pleased to stay at Nine Tree in Insadong, and would not hesitate to book here again."

Shilla Stay Gwanghwamun Myungdong

8/10 Good

"Great location"

AMID HOTEL SEOUL
