I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! It's incredibly convenient, with everything close by — including great restaurants, cozy cafes, and historic attractions. The rooms have a beautiful blend of modern and traditional Korean style, and they were spotless and very comfortable. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, culture, and convenience all in one place!

It’s conveniently located in Insadong. The hotel itself is nothing fancy but clean and the bed is comfortable. They did get my booking mixed up with someone else and that took some sorting out but overall it was OK and would say again.

Really enjoyable stay!

Really enjoyed my stay at the Sunbee Hotel. Location was great, walkable to many sights and close to a number of subway stations & bus routes. The area felt very safe for walking at night & lots of restaurants nearby. The hotel was very clean and had everything I needed including a free laundry room with washers and dryers which was really helpful. Would definitely return to this hotel!

Good location close to transit and shopping areas. Easy to get to popular attractions. Located on a bit of an odd side street so a bit hard to find at first. Older building with not great sound proofing, so bring your ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Room was large and very clean. Staff was friendly and helpful. Not many amenities at this property, but we didn't really need them with loads of shopping and dining options nearby. Beds were a bit hard for our preference, but would stay again.

Great Place to Stay!

This was a very cool spot to stay. The neighborhood is so fun to explore and so many sights are walking distance away. The hotel is cozy and comfortable and a great price. You hear absolutely no noise from outside or other guest. I would stay here again anytime!
