"Although it’s not even located near the actual Dongdaemun area, they still named it “Dongdaemun.” As a tourist unfamiliar with Korean administrative districts, I was quite frustrated — I felt deceived, having expected to be within walking distance of Dongdaemun Culture Park Station and the Dongdaemun shopping district.

"Staff was very friendly. Convenient we stayed here after moving hotels last minute. Good location for tour buses. My husband and I went on two tours while we stayed at the hotel. It was comfortable, lots of food options, and shopping. Great restaurants. Near a Moneybox where you can get the best rate for exchanging money."
"Have stayed here every time I’ve been to Seoul. It’s outside of the central/touristy areas but that just means you can experience the “real” Korea. Lots of great food options, close to both the subway and bus lines. The GM is so sweet and helpful. Breakfast is substantial. The rooms are clean. I will be staying again. "
"I had a very pleasant stay at Hotel Eden Hoegi. The property is exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well managed, and the courteous and helpful staff made me feel genuinely welcome throughout my stay.
For me, one of the biggest advantages is the location. It is very close to public transportation, making it extremely convenient to explore Seoul. The surrounding neighborhood is lively and full of excellent restaurants serving authentic local Korean food. There is also a Dunkin’ and a lovely...
"The property was located within walking distance to metro and bus stations and some shopping areas I.e. DDP, Myeongdong underground mall, etc. And directly across the street from a great bakery , Tous Les Jours!."
"Very modern and clean hotel. Staff very friendly. Myeondong is 2 stops away on the green line or get the bus just outside the the hotel to Myeondong station.
Hotel airport bus is also just outside the hotel. Not much outside the hotel, a 7 eleven very handy.
Washing machine and dryer in hotel is excellent. Very clean and modern. huge 65 inch TV. Although room is very small just enough is walk round."
"This hotel is in an excellent location, with all three palaces within easy reach, along with numerous local restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Getting around Seoul by taxi was also very convenient. Every staff member, including the housekeeping team, was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely stay here again on my next trip to Seoul!"

As an airline crew, I have spent at least a half of any given calendar year in hotels for past 28+ years. When I walk into a hotel, there are a few things I look for and appreciate. 1. Is it clean? I even check inside of room vents. 2. Is the surrounding area deemed safe enough to walk as a female? 3. Are hotel staffs hospitable to help with my needs? 4. Is bedding comfortable and clean? 5. Is there interesting attractions near the hotel? 6. What are my food options? 7. Is there any extra...
This properly is located near the shopping areas and aboilut 10 min away from the Palace and Secret Garden. This property is in prime location and is walking distance to local subway system. Thr facility has a self-serve laundry room which was a great amenity to have.
Hotel was easy to get to by airport bus. Only about 8min walk from both pickup/drop off airport bus location. Close to two different train stations and close to two major neighborhoods. Easy and about 30 minute walk to Gyeongbokgung, King Sejong Statue, and Deoksugung palace. Staff were nice and helpful, especially with transportation questions.
Very centrally located in Myeongdong, steps away from the major shopping area district. The hotel is only a few months old, but very clean and convenient. They have an industrial washer and dryer on every floor , which was great to use nightly. Next to that there’s a coffee machine with fresh grinds, we took advantage of that every morning. The room was comfortable for my family of 4. The highlight was the hot/cold water dispenser in the room which was so nice to use every day. Bathroom clean,...
The check-in staff was unattentive, not very hospitable and didn’t give us much information, just answered our questions. We asked for city view room, but our room was facing a back alley of a building.
Other than that, our stay was amazing. Our room was super clean, beds were very comfy, the cleaning ladies and staffs during breakfast were very friendly & attentive. The location was great too. Walking distance to many places.
Room we stayed is large and clean, staff are very friendly and always ready to help. Breakfast is good but pricey we only ate there once as there are plenty of options around the hotel. Very satisfied with our stay would recommend
Our stay at Solaria was great. This hotel is smack dab in the middle of Myeongdong. Airport limousine 6015 bus dropped us off and the walk to the hotel was only 5 minutes from the bus stop. We just as easily took the limousine bus back to the airport ( cash or tmoney card only). The Myeoungdong station was also just a 5min walk from the hotel.
The breakfast buffet was well worth it. The food options were plentiful and all cooked well. There's a tous les jour bakery just up the street with...
My daughter and I had a wonderful experience in Seoul. We especially loved our hotel because the staff was extremely helpful and polite. They helped us navigate through Seoul, including booking taxis for us and ordering take-out (it's a little difficult to use Coupang Eats, similar to Uber Eats but it's mostly in Korean). All of the staff was multi-lingual and spoke English, which was helpful because there were no language barrier. The hotel was really clean and there were no issues. We...
I have been staying in this hotel several times before in the last 10 years and never got a room upgrade, and it is interesting to see the different types of rooms the hotel has available.
We love staying here. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and comfortable room. Myeongdong Station is just a few steps away. Plenty of cafes, restaurants and convenience stores close by. Highly recommended.
The hotel has a rooftop bar with a great view of the city. The gym was very good to use. The staff were excellent, friendly and spoke fantastic English. I would book here again when I stay.
One thing to keep in mind is that it is right in the heart of Insadong. What I did not realize is it is in the middle of a party atmosphere with outdoor bars and people having a great time. It is not why I chose the hotel. I did not mind it and my stay was not affected at all, but if you do not want to stay...
Rooms are small but the convenient location well makes up for how small the rooms are. Very quick walk over to Myeong-Dong Shopping street. The airport bus (17000 won per person) is also right by the hotel so it makes returning to the airport very easy, rather than trying to take multiple trains back to the airport. Breakfast was a bit repetitive but it was still good, Would definitely stay here again next time I return Seoul.
This place is clean and well managed, providing the basic necessities you'd look for in a hostel. I do wish the common area was a bit bigger and more comfortable but otherwise it's a great place in Myeongdong
The hotel is in a great place for accessing trains and buses. Staff was friendly and handled package delivery well. Thank you for a memorable stay in Seoul.
1. We stayed in a basic king room, which was spacious enough for our family of three. Housekeeping was done daily, and the room was always clean. We were very satisfied with the cleanliness and service.
2. The hotel isn’t right in Myeongdong, but it’s in the Eulji-ro and Chungmuro area, which is still close to the center. Subway lines and public transport are within walking distance. Buses and taxis are also easy to find. We mostly used Uber for convenience. The nearest subway lines are Line 2...
