Hotels near Jonggak Station, Seoul

Since it was just opened, I searched for it on Naver Maps or Kakao Maps and it didn't come up, so I was worried it might actually be there, but it turned out fine! There was no floor guide on the website, so just to clarify, there is a kiosk on the 4th floor where you can check in, receive your room number and go to your room. The elevator goes up to the 5th floor, and there is a common space on the 6th floor where you can enjoy a cafe corner, ramen, and other services. The microwave was broken so I couldn't heat up my tteokbokki, which was disappointing 😭 The room was clean and had a refrigerator and table, so I had a comfortable stay!

The front desk service was excellent; they were very patient and resolved all my issues. They also thoroughly explained everything I needed to know about my stay. The separate bathroom and toilet were very convenient. The capsule sleeping space was surprisingly large, and being able to store my luggage under the bed was a huge plus. For a solo traveler in Seoul, this place offers great value for money. There are plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby, and even a 'Life4Cuts' photo booth downstairs. It's also very close to the subway station, so the location is fantastic. Plus, you need a card to enter and exit, which makes it feel very safe.

This was my first hostel experience, and I was pleasantly surprised by how clean the room was. They constantly replenished the communal towels, and the lobby had everything you could possibly need, so I was very satisfied with my stay.

Extremely satisfied!! I originally booked a guesthouse, but found out it had a shared living room, essentially a large suite, which meant terrible soundproofing. I canceled two days before my trip and rebooked this place instead, and the price was just right. This hostel is small but has everything you need! I booked a double room, which was neither too big nor too small, and even had a separate wet and dry area in the bathroom. There was a desk, a fridge, chairs, and a three-tier cabinet! All very practical. My friend and I came back with lots of bags every day, and we could still spread out our two suitcases to organize them. Once organized, we could just slide them under the bed. The room lighting was also great, Koreans really know how to do it 👍 The basement restaurant had free instant noodles, which I didn't eat much of, but it's a nice perk for those who don't like to eat breakfast but prefer a quick bite before heading out. Plus, you can continue using the restaurant even after checking out! I checked out in the morning and had an evening flight, so I used the restaurant in the afternoon to rest, order some food, and then head to the airport. I'm not sure if you can still eat instant noodles after checking out; I personally think it's better not to take advantage, or just ask the staff to confirm. The staff were all very friendly, greeted everyone coming and going, and spoke excellent English.

We are tourists from China, and we had a very comfortable four-night stay here. Firstly, the guesthouse is located in Myeongdong, very close to popular tourist attractions. Hongdae is less than 20 minutes away, and Seongsu-dong is about 40 minutes away. The nearest subway station is also about a 5-minute walk away. Secondly, the guesthouse itself is very nice and quiet. The common areas have a microwave, water dispenser, refrigerator, and tableware. The room also has a refrigerator, and the toiletries smelled wonderful. There's a power strip on the bedside table, so Chinese tourists don't need to bring their own adapters. Finally, the host is a very kind and patient person who helped us a lot during our stay, and we are truly grateful! We highly recommend this guesthouse to all travelers visiting Korea!

This hotel has 3 main advantages: 1. Excellent team of administrators, always ready to help 2. Location perfect: historic center of Insadon, near 3 metro stations, one literally opposite the hotel 2. Soft mattress, pillows and blankets. Ideal location to Bunchon khanok Village 15 minutes walk, to Mendon 20, all nearby. I will definitely stop again

On arrival had average welcome. However, free water, tea and use of microwave in reception made up for this. The hotel is very cutely decorated, aiming to have a European style with most/all decor. Most impressed with all the paintings done by Olivia Choi. Breakfast was ample and although not a lot of variety for western style, korean style breakfast had a good variety and I can taste the heart of the aunties making them! Room wise, again this was decorated with a bit of modern western style. However wasn't impressed with the lack of attention to details to certain areas, such as seeing a hair left on an unopened soap bar, grout between shower tiles not thoroughly cleaned, one of the towels having a very strong cleaning chemical smell. However, I wasn't expecting a 5 star hotel experience, and these were only tiny details that I noticed which weren't too much of a major problem. I mainly picked this hotel for its location and the room size. If you're looking for a comfortable, large room stay in centre of Seoul, with easy transport access or even walkable distance to popular places like myeongdong and the 2 palaces, I would recommend it.

Location is one of the best consider the price which is very affordable. I stay for 5nights however as they do not have many rooms, I think just 1-3 rooms per room types, they tend to sold out quite fast, which for my case, I have to change room type 3 times for the 5 nights stay. Some room is very small, which is expected for the price and the location. Plus point is that, a huge window to look outside. Room heating is also good during winter time, also room is clean and tidy. Only negative is that as I have to check out at 12pm and re check in again at 3pm if u have different room type, and staff may have different instructions on where to store your luggage. However they will bring it luggage to the room once it’s available which is good. Overall, for that pricing, no complaints.

Pros: 1. Great location: within walking distance to major attractions, surrounded by a bustling commercial area, and not far from the subway. 2. Good for family trips if you're just looking for a place to sleep. The facilities, though simple, are quite complete. 3. The bathroom is quite spacious and even has a bathtub. 4. The front desk staff can speak Chinese. Cons: 1. No universal power outlets; you need to bring your own adapter. 2. The bedside outlet was broken and not repaired, which was inconvenient for charging devices overnight. 3. There are no power outlets in the bathroom, so you have to use the hairdryer in the main room. Also, the shower has no partition, so water splashes everywhere. 4. The front desk is often unattended; you have to call if you need anything. 5. They only change towels and empty the trash daily, no actual cleaning is done, and they don't even replace toiletries like toothpaste and toothbrushes. Conclusion: It's a decent place to stay, and the cons are manageable, especially considering the price.

The space is enough for 4 people in the room of bunkbed, but if you bring a big luggage it's quite tight. Share bathroom inside the room with the amenities body soap, shampo and rinse, per bed got 2 small towels each. Location just next to city hall, some history landmark just by walking distance. Room only cleaned when someone check out. In front of the front desk they have coffee station which I enjoyed the instant coffee and simple breakfast that I bought from closest GS25
