I have stayed at this location twice. If you’re traveling with two people, for anything longer than 2 to 3 days,upgrade to a bigger room. You will need the space. The hotel staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The hotel gets super busy. That can mean that you will need to wait for an elevator at times. The key thing about this hotel is the location. You are just far enough away from Myeongdong/Euljiro central that you don’t have the incessant honking noise or music at night. But, you are withing walking distance to Chungmuro Station (less than 3 blocks), Myeongdong station (about .5 km) and Euljiro 2 & 3 (about .5 km). If you’re up for walking, and I’m just talking a couple kilometers, you’re also within walking distance of Cheonggycheon Stream, Insadong Culture Street, Green Lung Plaza, one of the palace gates and the MMCA. Samcheong-dong and Bukchon Hanok Village is about another km beyond that. That’s a couple kilometers in one direction and worth the walk. And the other direction, you’re right by one of the Hanok Villages (right across the street from Chungmuro station) and Dongkuk. Then there’s all of Namsan Park. Don’t be sleeping on Namsan. If it’s not summer, I highly recommend the 12 km walk up. I’m a hiker though. The walk up is a beautiful paved road and there’s so many sites and interesting little parks and monuments to see on the way. You can always take the cable car back down, or the bus.
