Eumseong Vacations from $547

This hotel is in the heart of Myeoungdong, close to everything but pretty dated. Nice view of Namsan tower but the window needed a cleaning and the room smelled weird. Everything was outdated and needed a fresh renovation. Big plus was the brunch downstairs. Food was really good with many options and the price was exceptionally good. The entrance to the hotel was a mess with picketers when we stayed there a big eye sore. I probably wouldn’t stay there again since there are so many options nearby at this price point.

We had to wait 2 hours for checkin. I know the check in time is 3 pm, but there are always some rooms that are ready earlier. Then at 3pm there were many people checking in at the same time. I liked the location. Airport limusine in front of the hotel for 18000 won. one washing machine and one dryer for the entire hotel. we paid a higher price with expedia, but the room was on the 11th floor with a nice view. we did not have time for breakfast unfortunatelly. There was some renovation gaing on in the foyer when we were there.

I really enjoyed my time at Shilla Stay-Guro. The room was extremely clean (and a nice size) and the staff was very helpful. I also enjoyed the neighborhood surrounding Shilla Stay. It isn't the typical tourist areas (which are all easily accessible, as the hotel sits on the 2 line), but the neighborhood has a life of its own, good restaurants, and is vibrant. I would stay here again.

Simply put: a genuine 5-star hotel. Perfect score.
