Seoul Hostels

"The location was absolutely perfect. It was easy to find since it’s right in front of Shinsegae Department Store, which was also great for shopping. Best of all, it's close to Seoul Station, making it very convenient for staying before or after taking the train. After dropping off my bags, I visited Gyeongbokgung Palace, Insadong, and Anguk. The close proximity made it the optimal choice for planning my travel route. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for accommodation in the heart of Myeongdong with great transportation links."

"Ik verbleef in een eenpersoonskamer, maar het bed was niet comfortabel. Er hingen geen gordijnen voor de ramen, maar wel voor het bed. De receptie was 's avonds gesloten en niemand hield de openbare ruimtes schoon. 's Avonds laat stonden een paar vrouwelijke fans die net klaar waren met een concert luidruchtig buiten te kletsen, wat erg onbeleefd was. (De deur was slecht geïsoleerd en er werden geen oordopjes verstrekt.) Het ontbijt bestond uit brood, pindakaas, jam, melk en ontbijtgranen – het eenvoudigste hotel waar ik verbleef. Er is een bushalte en een supermarkt in de buurt, en de receptie sprak Chinees. De badkamer was klein maar schoon. Er was een lichte make-uphoek bij het raam, met wattenschijfjes en wattenstaafjes."

"De locatie is het grootste voordeel. De netheid van de omgeving is veel beter dan ik had verwacht. Er werken veel mensen aan de balie, sommige zijn erg vriendelijk en sommige zijn niet warm, maar ze kunnen allemaal passende hulp bieden. Persoonlijk vind ik dat het bed en de kussens voor mij niet geschikt zijn om op te slapen, maar dit is heel persoonlijk. Ik reis elke dag naar buiten, behalve om te slapen, en de tijd dat ik in het hostel verblijf is minder dan tien uur. Voor mensen die gewoon een plek nodig hebben om uit te rusten, is dit een goede plek met een uitstekende locatie en een schone algehele omgeving. Ik zou hier weer verblijven als ik slechts een korte tijd op reis was. Als u heel ontspannen bent en wilt genieten van hotelfaciliteiten, verhoogt u uw accommodatiebudget."

"Our check-in experience was positively impacted by Max's flexibility in accommodating an early arrival, for which we are appreciative. The hostel offers comprehensive amenities, including complimentary breakfast and laundry services, and is equipped with an elevator. While the uphill location presented a logistical challenge with luggage, both upon arrival and departure, we nonetheless found our stay enjoyable. We extend our gratitude to Namsan Guesthouse."

"This hotel boasts an excellent location, very close to Jongno 5(ga) Station and Gwangjang Market. The twin room is quite small, barely enough space to open luggage, but it's clean and perfectly adequate if you just need a place to sleep. The bed is very high, you almost have to jump to get onto it, but I imagine it's elevated to create space underneath for luggage. Despite its height, it was very comfortable to sleep on. I could faintly hear noises from adjacent rooms, but it wasn't bothersome. There's a kitchen on the third floor with a coffee maker, refrigerator, and food like bread, available for guests to enjoy anytime. They also offer luggage storage before check-in and after check-out. There's no elevator, so carrying a suitcase up and down to our fourth-floor room was a bit of a workout. Although I didn't use it, there's a stylish cafe on the first floor. Overall, it was a good hostel."

"Absolutely great location! Convenient for shopping at Myeongdong district and get to the airport via airport shuttle. For light traveller who can cope with tiny room, I would recommend staying at this hostel if you are mostly outside visiting places. Also. for light sleeper. I would recommend bringing ear plugs with you as the noise isolation is so so."

"I recently had the pleasure of staying at Cave Myeongdong for six nights. From the moment i checked in, the staff were welcoming and attentive, ensuring that all my needs were met throughout my stay. The location was perfect for my needs, situated in a central area with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. Whether i wanted to explore local shops, dine at nearby Halal restaurants, or visit popular tourist spots, everything was within a short distance."

"Nice people at reception, the location is EXCELLENT close to three metro stations (you can get almost anywhere easily), although the place itself might be hard to find initially. The main door is awkward to close. Some very minor wear and tear. The bed is quite hard for me as a westerner but it is so cheap and convenient that I just used it as a fallback/storage. There isn't even a checkout process, you just leave. Shower didn't work so had to use another one. The manager didn't explain they keep the towels in the shower room on the floor below. This is much nicer than being given a towel, you can just leave it in the bathroom or pick it up there. One of the managers would never turn on the heating so was a relief when the other manager was in. I was out a lot so never really complained. Decent for the price. I was content."

"Stayed 4 nights, 3rd day the toilet light broke down. 4th day the shower kept leaking water although I was using the sink. And there’s always an unpleasant smell from the toilet. Though nothing major, still enjoyed my stay, loved the location, near to stations and convenience stores. There’s also funnily a Photoism booth located nearby lol. Thanks for the stay."

"Ik heb een foto gemaakt van warenhuis Shinsegae en warenhuis Lotte vanaf het dak van Hostel. Bovendien is het personeel vriendelijk. Je kunt er 's ochtends genieten van een eenvoudig ontbijt en er zijn veel buitenlanders. Ik hoor het soms ook."
