"This is a nice, affordable hotel with awesome staff. Rooms are basic as are many hotels in Korea, and are clean and comfortable (one double bed and one single bed in most rooms). The staff is excellent. We stayed here because a family member works close by. Some neighborhood restaurants are within walking distance as well as a few “quick marts”. Unification park with some hiking trails and a rebuilt 1.000 year old palace is nearby."

Top Dora Observatory Hotel Reviews

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at The Hotel Botanik for 11 days. Our room was cleaned daily. If we needed an extra towel the front desk was super quick in delivering. My middle daughter had a medical incident and they were extremely attentive in responding along with calling 119 Medics who arrived within 3 mins. Manager Brian came by the next day to check on us and asked if we needed anything at all he would provide. He was sincere in his patience and this was most appreciated as I was traveling alone with my children quite far from home."

L7 HONGDAE by LOTTE HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"Easy check in great location for food transit and shopping. Our flight was canceled so we needed an extra day and the staff quickly accommodated us in the same room for the same price."

Mercure Ambassador Seoul Magok

8/10 Good

"Clean room and convenient for our purposes, but the room was cozy than I expected."

LOTTE CITY HOTEL GIMPO AIRPORT

8/10 Good

"It's right above a big mall that is quite fun. The staff were kind and the room was comfy."

Mayfield Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of the best hotels I’ve been in Korea so far. Extremely well designed and constructed sites and completed with neat modern and luxurious touch. It was clean and very stylish hotel and all the staffs were so friendly and accommodating. It’s a resort like hotel just about 5-7 min drive from Gimpo airport. They also run shuttle to the airport as well as nearby shopping malls and cute city called Magok. Also a great outing you can plan from the hotel. I didn’t expect this resort type hotel in Seoul at all to be honest. One downside is that their onsite drinks, food and snacks were quite high prices but besides that everything was perfect with comfort, great design amenities and hospitality. I’d definitely visit again in the future."

Hotel Gracery Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely well located hotel. Staff were great. Lifts are a bit confusing. But otherwise a property I’d definitely recommend"

Stanford Hotel Seoul

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel beautiful surroundings friendly staff"

Hongdae Local Stitch Creator Town Seogyo

10/10 Excellent
