Seoul hotels in Dongdaemun-gu

Pros: It's right next to cheonyangi metro station and little Mart with many food and shopping options. Room was clean and large enough for 3 adults and a toddler

Cons: Breakfast options were limited. There are very few plugs so it's difficult to charge all cell phones. While close to metro station it is a bit far out from the city center.

Pros: Location, location and location. Perfect!!! The room is spacious and very clean. I like the compliment breakfast at Basement kitchenette. The staff are friendly as well.

Pros: Everything abt the location. Walking distance to lotte departmental store, daiso n convenience stores. Airport bus ends at the stn and a walking distance to the hotel Service was superb. Everyday housekeeping without fail. Luv everything abt it. Diff rooms w diff concept. Near subway accessible to all parts of city.

Cons: None tat i can point out. From the customer service to the room to the location, all superb!!

Pros: Super friendly and helpful staff. Nice and quite room. Very close to the trainstation.

Cons: No view, the air-conditioning has a timer so it would turn off in the middle of the night

Pros: The staff are helpful. Check out time till noon is definitely beyond expectations. Easy access to both subway & train stations with less than two minutes walk. Airport shuttle bus stop is just next to the subway station. Basic breakfast is included.

Cons: Lack of space for necessities in the bathroom. Limited lighting & sockets within the room.

Pros: My first visit to Seoul and with no Korean language. My local friend suggested the hotel and helped me check in. It quite met my needs.

Cons: Tea / coffee making facilities sin the room. Coat hangers for my clothes. Variety in the breakfast menu.

Pros: I like the toilet bowl heater and bidet.

Cons: There is no wardrobe and safe

Pros: We asked for a high room and they gave it to us.

Cons: There was barely a window in the room. Also the whole design vibe feels broken somehow; quite impractical overall just for the looks.

Pros: Nice

Cons: No

Pros: Location is fantastic!! Only 2 mins walk from metro and plenty of restaurants, department store within 1 min away. Hotel is super clean and tidy and rooms are a great size. Breakfast included was also satisfactory

Pros: Great Location, few steps away from the train station and there are so many restaurants and convenience stores surrounding the hotel.

Cons: The room is so small and the bed/mattress is not that comfortable. The food at the restaurant is terrible, better skip breakfast

Pros: their location should be the best point for travelers. Door to subway station is only 1 min. It is really great.

Cons: Decoration was not good even though it was minor point for me.

Pros: The hotel is a two minute walk going straight from exit 4 on the Sinseoldong subway exit. The staff was helpful and spoke English fluently. There is a 3pm check in that was enforced during my stay due to a booked hotel. The staff "upgraded" my room due to this.. The upgraded room was spacious with two love seats, a desk and a bed. In the room you have control of the air conditioner but it is a single unit installed in the ceiling. Which is very different from what most hotels in America have, a major ac unit with multiple vents. I think this one unit air conditioner is typical in Korea. Liked the western style bathroom even though I didn't fit the tub. The bed was very plush with a sink in effect, which was nice since the other two hotels in Korea had hard beds with light sheets. Very clean and the cleaning lady was very attentive!

Cons: I really did not have much of a compliant about the encore hotel. There was a breakfast buffet which had satisfactory food, little flavor for the price. Also note that a hour to ending the buffet food is not replaced, just gone. But this i believe is cultural too I noticed in Paris baguette, dunkin donuts and other restaurants that they made only a limited quantity for the day.

Pros: AC was great. Bathroom was large enough. Shower good. Beds not hard.

Cons: Walls looked run down. Bathroom sink not cleaned well. Wet towel from previous guest in bathroom.

Pros: Location if I have to say one.

Cons: Everything include Front desk staff attitude, dirty carpet, shower curtains, shower room floor, bad sound proof, old towels, there is no customer services! Sub standard restaurant.

Cons: Carpet worn out. Wall had scratches. Breakfast menu same everyday

Pros: Location and staffs

Pros: Location excellent!!!

Cons: Check in time is too late!! it should be after 1 Pm

Pros: The fact it’s next to a metro that gave them a plus point all the time. And the room itself for what u need

Cons: Breakfast buffet not much options for drinks such as juices and coffees

Pros: Nil

Cons: Customer service was bad with lack of information. Front desk didn't even have a taxi numbers to call but only got Airport taxi numbers. Shower curtain was too short to contain within booth. After shower floor gets flooded. Shower room floor was wobbley as well.Towels wasn't fresh enough. It does looks like it has been used for some years. Carpet was stained with drink spills. Sound proof was bad to hear other rooms. However they need to investigate all of those issues to bring service to standard quality if they are serious. If not who cares I guess..

Pros: nothing

Cons: everything

Pros: staff

Cons: nothing

Pros: Its near convinient store so we can buy anything we need The area is not too crowded

Cons: Aircon is not available thus, need to open window for cold air. No cashier in breakfast area b1, dining personnel does not accept payment, need to go up in reception area 1st flr to pay first then return to b1 to eat.

Pros: The staff is great, allowed early check-in free of charge :)

Pros: Very clean room. The housekeeping service was excellent, always had toiletries in the bathroom and clean towels. The staff was polite and helpful. The location is great, very convenient to use the subway.

Cons: It would be great if the staff works more on their English skills. Only two of the boys could speak good English, so when they weren't on duty, I struggled a lot with explaining what I needed to others. In my opinion, for a good hotel what Golden City is, English is a necessity.

Pros: One of the girl at the reception deck is beautiful, friendly & helpful plus she speaks English fluently. I forgot to ask her name, otherwise I would recommend to her boss. Excellent!

Pros: The place is in heart of city. Nice place to stay in

Pros: Clean room

Cons: Too far from the downtown

Pros: Facilities and cleanliness

Cons: It was very dusty almost everywhere especially in corners and under the bed. The aircon didn't work properly and when we asked about it the worker just said that it's hot because of the hot weather (this is why you use an aircon but ours didn't work) they didn't want to move us to another room and said that the other rooms are the same (hot). The bed was very squeaky and uncomfortable.

Pros: Location very convenience, near subway station, Starbucks, 7-11, many restaurant, police station.

Cons: Air conditioner noisy sound very loud. Bathroom water temperature is unstable, will suddenly become hot or cold. Even they have lift to reach the 5th floor, but there still have half floor of staircase need to climb up, no suitable for elder people.

Pros: The location is very convenient, it is in front of the metro station, the staff are very friendly, nearby many places for good breakfast, the bath room has hot and cold water although some of the bath room pipes need fixation

Cons: some of the bathroom pipes need fixation

Pros: Really worth my money. The room was clean and comfy complete with air conditioner, water heater, tv, hairdryer, towels, shampoo, soap, and toothpaste. Small room but enough space for me and husband to perform solat together. The location is very close to the Sinseoldong subway station, so it's easy to go anywhere. I am very grateful. Thank you so much.

Pros: Private bathrooms

Cons: It was cold

Pros: the breakfast is on time, however, it does change from the very beginning up the last day of my 4 days stay

Cons: the location is very accessible to transportation, marts and resto.

Pros: the location of course! Soooo near with the Subway entrance

Cons: sometimes they didn't provide breakfast.

Pros: The hostel is literally just beside a train station; making it veru convenient when exploring Seoul

Cons: Sometimes there is no breakfast. Or they just put it in the pantry late in the morning.

Pros: Good location and friendly staff

Pros: The place is near the train station & bus stop, exactly infront the building. The surrounding area also full with convenience store where you can buy groceries. Also got few korean restaurant too. The staff also is quite friendly. The room also is not that cramped.

Cons: The pictures shown here is edited, once you go there its definitely different. The building is kinda creepy a bit, no lit very well so it's always quite dark inside the place. No proper pantry & place to sit. Also no cutlery/plate/bowl you can borrowed & used. I've stayed for few nights & I never know what breakfast they provide. Plus we never met any other guest during our stay. No housekeeping done throughout my stay, and they never took out our rubbish. Plus the dustbin also is very small & no extra trash bag is provided. The bathroom door is made of glass & in middle part of it is see through. Its very unpleasant & uncomfortable when you want to used it as the people outside can see what's happening on the inside. Plus the space for the bathroom is TOO BIG, they should do so renovation & reduce the size of it so that the actual room size can be increased. Btw, although the building is near the bustop, if you want to take airport bus from there. You still need to walk few block & waited on another bustop area.
