The hotel is spotless and has a very clean, modern vibe that makes you feel instantly at home. Location-wise, it’s super convenient if you’re taking Line 5—exit 6 is the closest, but exit 5 works just as well and is only a short walk away. One nice bonus: there’s a nail salon right on the ground floor with a 30% discount for guests. The nail technician was incredibly attentive and even allowed me to message ahead to discuss my preferred design. The results were flawless—professional, detailed, and absolutely beautiful. A great little touch that made our stay even more enjoyable.

I stayed at World Stay Hotel Sungshin Univ. for one night and was thoroughly impressed. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from check-in to check-out—always ready to help with any questions or requests. The room was clean, well-maintained, and had all the essentials I needed. Located just steps from Sungshin University Station, it’s super convenient for getting around Seoul via subway. The location is quiet yet central, making it a great base for exploring the city. Excellent value for money and a comfortable stay overall. I’d definitely choose this hotel again on my next visit to Seoul.

Located in a convenient spot near subway lines, this hotel makes exploring Seoul effortless. The room was clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly quiet despite being in the heart of the city. Staff were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. While I’m not typically drawn to big cities, my stay here changed my perspective—there’s a calm, modern charm to the place that feels refreshing. The surrounding area has plenty of local eateries and small shops, offering an authentic taste of Seoul life. Even if you’re only passing through, this is a solid choice for comfort and convenience. It’s not about the city’s grandeur—it’s about how well the hotel makes you feel at home.

The stay was absolutely excellent! The room was immaculately clean, and the shower was one of the best I've experienced—strong water pressure and great temperature control. Everything about the hotel felt thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience. Located just a short walk from subway access, it’s easy to explore Seoul’s main attractions without hassle.

I stayed at this hotel and was genuinely impressed! The place was spotlessly clean, and the room was cozy and comfortable. The staff—especially the aunt and her daughter—were incredibly friendly and helpful. They even arranged a taxi for me before I left, which made my departure so much easier. They also provided thoughtful amenities like makeup remover wipes and other essentials, so I didn’t have to pack extra things. It’s clear they care about guest comfort. Overall, the value for money is outstanding. If you're visiting Seoul, I highly recommend this place—it’s a hidden gem!

Staying at Wangsimni Palace was a pleasant experience overall. The location is excellent—just a short subway ride from central Seoul, with plenty of dining options and vibrant night markets nearby. The hotel blends traditional Korean aesthetics with modern design, creating a unique and stylish atmosphere. The lobby and rooms were spotlessly clean, and the beds offered great comfort for a good night's sleep. Noise insulation was decent, so I wasn’t disturbed by sounds from neighboring rooms. The staff were friendly and efficient during check-in. While the space isn’t overly large, it’s well-utilized and feels cozy rather than cramped. For travelers looking to enjoy an authentic Korean vibe without breaking the bank, this place offers solid value. I’d definitely consider staying here again on my next trip to Seoul.

The first room had a strong smell of smoke, which was quite unpleasant, so I asked to be moved. The staff were very kind and promptly arranged a new room without any hassle. However, the second room wasn’t much better—the bathroom felt a bit dark and slightly unsettling, and the overall facilities were just average. That said, the price is definitely affordable, making it a solid choice if you're on a budget. It’s perfect for students or travelers looking for a no-frills stay with good value. While not luxurious, it gets the job done, especially considering the cost.

The hotel is a solid choice for a quick overnight stay. Located just steps from Sungshin Women's University Station, it’s super convenient for travelers using public transit. The water pressure in the shower is excellent, and there’s ample parking available—great for those driving. While the bed sheets had some noticeable stains and I found hair in the towel, these minor issues didn’t ruin the experience. Overall, the room was quiet with no bothersome noise, making it easy to sleep well. It’s clear this place is designed more for functional stays rather than luxury—perfect if you’re just passing through or need a clean, safe spot for one night. One downside: no free Wi-Fi, so you’ll need to rely on mobile data or purchase internet access. Still, for the price and convenience, it delivers good value.

The hotel is excellent overall—great location, super convenient for getting around Seoul, and the staff are very friendly. My only confusion was that I booked a two-night stay, but I had to check out on the second day and couldn’t recheck in until after 6 PM. That timing restriction felt a bit odd and wasn’t clearly explained upfront. Still, the team handled it well, and even though I had to move my luggage, it didn’t ruin the experience. The room was clean, comfortable, and the value for money was strong. Definitely would stay here again.

Staying at Nouvelle Seoul Hotel Itaewon was a fantastic experience. The hotel is perfectly located in the middle of Seoul's vibrant nightlife, yet the rooms are well-insulated, making it easy to relax and sleep soundly despite the lively surroundings. The rooms themselves are spacious with large TVs that make for great entertainment. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and spoke fluent English, which made check-in and any inquiries super smooth. I appreciated the 24-hour check-in option—very convenient for late arrivals. Plus, everything you need is within walking distance: restaurants, cafes, shopping, and the metro station. This place truly offers the best of both worlds—urban energy and peaceful comfort. Highly recommend for travelers who want convenience without compromise.

The location of Hertz Hotel in Jongno was absolutely perfect! I arrived earlier than check-in time, but they kindly offered free luggage storage—so convenient. There were tons of restaurants, small shops, and cozy cafes nearby, making it easy to pass the time without any stress. The room itself was spotlessly clean, and having a bathtub was definitely one of the main reasons I chose this hotel—it made for a relaxing soak after a long day. Bathroom amenities included shampoo, conditioner, and a bathrobe, though I did need to bring my own toothbrush. For multi-night stays, water bottles were conveniently restocked. One standout feature was the sliding mirror that doubles as a blackout panel—just slide it across the window, and you’ve got complete darkness, ideal for sleeping in late. I was also pleasantly surprised to find a straightening iron available in the room—such a thoughtful touch. I’d definitely stay here again. Excellent value and a truly comfortable experience.

We stayed here as a family of three adults, including first-time visitors to Korea, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. What stood out most was the in-room laundry facilities—detergents were freely available, and I brought my own small packet of fabric softener from Japan, which worked perfectly. A large tote bag is highly recommended for moving laundry between rooms. The bathroom amenities were exceptional: the shampoo and conditioner had a luxurious scent and texture, leaving a subtle, pleasant fragrance throughout the room after showering. It’s rare to find a full set of toothbrushes included in a Korean hotel, and the lightweight hairdryer delivered strong airflow without strain. In the dining area, they offer four levels of spicy ramen—while I haven’t tried level 3, level 2 was similar to a moderately spicy kimchi ramen, not too overwhelming. Everything you’d expect at home, like plastic wrap, aluminum foil, and containers, was readily available. Even our homemade kimchi from a local market didn’t come with packaging—we were able to wrap it up neatly with the provided wrap and take it back easily. The staff were incredibly friendly, with several speaking Japanese, which made us feel safe and welcome. We especially enjoyed meeting Star-chan, who’s originally from Iran—such a memorable encounter! Thanks again, see you soon! One minor downside: the coffee machine was a bit sweet, and there was no option to adjust sugar levels—so every latte came out overly sugary. The chocolate drink also wasn’t to my taste. Also, the power outlets were tricky—my C-type adapter (bought from a 100-yen store) would plug in but kept falling out, making it unusable. Even though another universal adapter worked, it wobbled and sometimes fell over, causing power loss. And unfortunately, the silk-pressed straightening iron showed an error message and wouldn’t turn on. But overall? This place felt more like home than a hotel. Late-night ramen or toast lovers were cooking quietly nearby, yet we heard absolutely nothing—perfectly peaceful. It totally redefined what a hotel stay could be. We’re already planning to return next time we visit Korea!
