Reviews for Seoul Hotels

Sungshin University Station Hotel World Stay
2.5/53 Reviews
University Road area
Not enough in kindness, late time upstairs noise (Clean or ...) and tired to sleep
Snowflower Guesthouse
4.4/554 Reviews
University Road area
The guesthouse is within walking distance from Hyehwa Station. The nightlife around this estate is also very lively, so rest assured should you need to return back later in the evening. The complimentary breakfast served is decent - you get a choice of toasted bread with spread, instant ramen or oatmeal. This is coupled with some milk, fruit juice, coffee, tea and water. However, you will need to prepare the meals yourself and clean the dishes after that. A caution that the room can seem rather small and cramped (for those needing a spacious design when selecting your overseas accommodation). My individual shower facilities also had a stench odour of what seemed like sewage, which was the main disappointing portion. If not, the rest of the facilities are good enough - e.g. The toilet bowls are clean and fitted with smart toilet seats, providing a warm sitting experience for those relieving yourselves during the winter season in Korea. The hosts were also very friendly, despite their limited proficiency in spoken English Language. There is also a shared desktop computer for your internet usage in the balcony, as well as a smart television in each room with internet-based programmes (e.g. Netflix, YouTube, Disney Plus etc.). I will strongly recommend this accommodation to those seeking a value-for-money option, solo travellers wanting a communal yet safe space to have a roof under their heads for the night. Not for the introverted nature - you will have plenty of opportunities to interact and dine with many strangers, of which some might become your global friend!

Take airport limousine 6011, then its just a few minutes walk to the hotel. 1 min walk to the metro station. Coin laundry available which is a life saver. Room is spacious and up to expectatio . Mr SH Kim at front desk very nice, helped with directions and ordering taxi. Remember to show your room key when ordering drinks at A Twosome Place at the hotel for a discount.
Friendly DH Naissance Hotel by Mindrum Group
4.5/5122 Reviews
University Road area
Good location, surrounded by cafes and restaurants and shops. Close to subway station and bus stop (even bus that goes ro Incheon airport). The room is clean and we got everything that we need in the room. All the staffs are friendly and helpful. The front of house staffs speak English very well and most of the time they were there..just tap the bell. They kept our luggages while we went to Osaka for a week, and when we came back they have put our luggages in our room..we really appreciate that. They also upgraded our room for 1 night..good job team!!!. (Sorry we don't know your name, we only know the manager's name, Charlie..thanks Charlie!). .overall we are happy with our stay and we will come back next time we visit Seoul.
Seoul Loft Apartments - SLA 7 Night Minimum

Stay in the best hotel! The room is very beautiful! Hotel location is still very good! There is a subway nearby and it is close to many attractions! There is no breakfast, but there are many convenience stores and restaurants nearby. No parking. The service is very good, you can communicate in English, and also help to ask for a takeaway. Next time I have the opportunity to settle the room here!
Sungshin University Station R
3.1/57 Reviews
University Road area
I made a reservation in a hurry on the day of my bullet trip. I was impressed by a beautiful business hotel in tripcom, but when I actually went, it was a love hotel. Korean love hotels didn't notice until I arrived and saw the love goods in the room because there was no love hotel feeling like Japan. But I was relieved because it was a type that was clean and could flush the toilet!
