Seoul Cube Itaewon

Yongsan/Itaewon Seoul|0.53km from Leeum Museum of Art
I encountered the loveliest staff ever. They were all so friendly and helpful form checking in, recommendations for tourist areas, restaurants, street food and travel. They had full knowledge of local and touristy areas, and always went the extra mile, and made sure I had the right directions there and back. The main receptionist, Yeosong, speaks English, Korean and Chinese, I was impressed and felt even better after she remained in contact with me until my departure since I had roaming service issues. I was blown away by their hospitality and making you feel comfortable, a great first impression. It's a cozy hostel and cafe, so I felt nice to even sit and talk with the staff and being so attentive towards everyone. The manager is great and also involved in everything, you can tell they're all a great team. The hostel is very close to the city center, if not down the corner. The facilities are very clean and was constantly checked up on. Seoul Cube is a really nice place to stay, if not the best place to stay, especially in Itaewon. The breakfast is really good, and they had a variety at that, from sandwiches, to eggs and toast with water or coffee. They play movies in the evening in the cafe area, which everyone can just sit and enjoy, a plus because I got to meet so many people. I also liked that there's doors that require passcodes in order to access the hostel, your area and the room you're staying in. It made me feel extra safe and more privacy within the hostel.

H Hostel Itaewon
4.5/545 Reviews
Yongsan/Itaewon
The staff at the counter were really warm! 4 ladies shared the same dormitory and 1 shower room. There is only 1 hairdryer in the room to go around, I can’t help but to feel a little conscious if I were to use the hairdryer at night it might disturb my room mates. Breakfast every morning were in the common area with white toast and eggs (you have to fry it yourself and wash dishes yourself), coffee, juice and milk are also provided with cornflakes I think that’s nice. Because Itaewon is on Line 6, going around to the more tourist areas are slightly difficult, but I loved it because there is a straight bus to Sinsa and Gangnam. Laundry room is also free and good! It takes roughly 2h~ to finish washing and drying clothes (if you use the speed wash mode). The bed was very clean and very spacious, side power plug and hook basket for your common items like phone and wallet is great! Usually I would not stay capsules or hostels for more than 1 night, but I stayed here for 3 days 2 nights, it’s one of the best hostel that I wouldn’t mind staying more than a night. Would definitely considering coming back.
Imperial Palace Boutique Hotel Itaewon

Great location in Itaewon, very clean and spacious rooms, staff was great and gave me a late checkout. There’s an Eggslut restaurant in the lobby which makes breakfast very convenient. Will be back at the IP boutique hotel again.
Grand Hyatt Seoul
4.4/5201 Reviews
Yongsan/Itaewon
Overall not a very pleasant stay. From a well established 5 star hotel, I expected a lot more. Understandingly it was a public holiday with huge amount of local crowds. However, the service was honestly lackluster to say the least. The frustration came early on where lift coordination was horrible. From our 5th floor down to the lobby we had to wait close to 45 minutes to even squeeze into a lift. Given that everyone was rushing to use the pool, the hotel should have a system where certain lifts served only the high floors and some only the lower floors . Rather than all lifts going to the top coming down where lower level guests had no chance on getting in the elevators Not only that, upon asking for a bucket of ice, some wine glasses, we were surprised that all of these incurred extra charges. Which they did inform us so we agreed. But the unacceptable one was asking for mere cutleries, we were charged based on per pax basis unless we ordered room service, which was just ridiculous. If you'd ask me if I'd stay again, I'd honestly say no. Having stayed in Hyatts around the world. I can honestly say this is the worst experience I've had with any Hyatt

The service from the lady ( one called Jay ) was really welcoming and friendly. She is a great employee, by the way. The issue was that I was only able to check in from 6 p.m. which changed my day somewhat.

Hamilton Hotel
4.1/5152 Reviews
Yongsan/Itaewon
The Hamilton is in a great location - right by a subway station with only one train change to get to and from the airport. Heaps of great cafes, restaurants, bars, brewpubs and clubs nearby - even if you don’t go clubbing if it is a great vibe. One word of warning - if you are noise sensitive, bring some earplugs to get a good night’s sleep. We booked knowing this from reading other reviews - and we slept just fine :) Room was spacious, very clean and secure.
