Great value for buget hotel.

Location is great and convenient. From Hoehyeon station, exit 1, walking 3 mins to Seoul City Hotel. Walking distance to Namdaemun market, Myeong Dong Shopping Street and N Seoul Tower. There are few eateries opened 24 hours near by and many minimart around too. They only provide simple, same breakfast daily. Bread, butter, jam, mushroom soup, hard boiled eggs, cookies, instant cup noodles, oranges juices, milk, coffee and tea.

Poor first impressions, but let hotel grow on you

Don't let the first impression be the final impression. We had a bad first impression. Our Uber from Gimpo Airport wasn't able to locate the place as navigation couldn't locate hotel. Stumbling with 4 luggages, we arrived at seemingly run-down building. The elevator had a foul smell. There was no partition in bathroom between shower and toilet. We couldn't find toilet soap. We were regretting it already, but it turned out to be one of our best hotels in the trip. When I asked reception for toilet accessories, he accompanied me to the room to show where it is. It was next to TV in what looked like tea bags. But they have actual tea bags too. And kettle. And computer. The staff spoke better English than all our hotel staff in Japan. Room size was very reasonable and comes with a robotic entrance which is super cool. Breakfast (bread-eggs-butter-jam with soup- stuff you'd find in a US motel) was complimentary. There are weighing machines on every floor useful for checking bag size. For our return, we booked taxi to Incheon Airport through them at reasonable 70k KRW and the driver was very punctual, safe. The front-desk went above & beyond helping us get a taxi using their own app when Uber wouldn't match for us to go to palace. Room service was exceptional. Location: very close to Myeongdong, Namdaemun. Use exit 1 Hoeyhoen Station, 3 minute walk. Install Kakao Maps. Overall excellent service and will stay here again when return to Seoul.

The hotel is clean & location - accessibility is good. One thing am not impressed is the breakfast schedule. It’s a little bit late.. (8-11) suggest should be as early as 6am. And the food is very limited & boring😌.. Hotel is not customer friendly.

Great value, service and location.

This is a small, but very comfortable hotel. It is in a very convenient location, approximately 200 m from exit 1 of the Hoehyeon station (Line number 4). Nearby are the Numdaemun and Myeongdong markets. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Breakfast was simple, but was available till 11.00 am. Like most places in Korea, the wifi was excellent. Overall, the hotel is not fancy, but is clean and in a safe and quiet location. We were well looked after and would gladly stay here again.

Convenient location, perfectly adequate for a single person spending a few days in Seoul sightseeing. Room didn't have a window and didn't have a fan in the bathroom, so was very hot and humid if the AC wasn't running.

not worth the daily rate

The only good thing I can say is the location was great - other than that, rooms were small with no windows, inconsistent internet, no drawers or closet, and breakfast should not even be called breakfast. Not worth the daily rate.

Hotel close to subway but room quite small

Overall the accommodation is acceptable if you don't need spacious room. However room ventilation is moderate. Breakfast is decent but menu never change during 1 week stay. We got bored with the breakfast after 4th day of stay.

Hotel in HoeHyeon not Myeong-dong

We stayed in a double room on the 2nd floor which was comfortable and quiet. The checkin and checkout was quick and hassle free after booking through Hotels.com. The free breakfast on the top floor was basic with coffee, instant Ramen noodles, toasts, boiled eggs, bottled juice and one fruit option. There are other food options reasonably priced around the hotel for variety. The hotel is situated near HoeHyeon station, exit 1 between Seoul and Myeong-dong. Just walk towards the Rex Hotel and look for the hotel on the right turn corner. If arriving via the AREX Express train then change at Seoul station for Line4 for 1 stop to HoeHyeon. Myeongdong shopping strip is also 1 station or a 10mins walk away. Some cons about the hotel, basic breakfast, sheets do not get replaced every day but clean towels do and not much tour information available. Overall, it's a good price hotel but not suitable if you enjoy the popular shopping area of Myeong-dong. But excellent for shopping at Namdaemun Market.

Comfortable Stay

My family booked 3 quadruple rooms for four nights. It was beyond my expectations. The room with double beds was good enough for four people. It was spacious. The beds were comfortable, the toilet and bath was very clean. The hotel had all the basics that one could need. Toiletries, slippers, hair dryer! The wifi connectivity was good.
