This was such an amazing stay! Spacious room, comfy bed, great location right bang in the middle of Myeongdong. Staff were super efficient friendly, attentive and professional. There's a self service laundry room which is available 24/7; very handy when you get back after a whole day in the Seoul heat. Myeongdong is an extremely busy area, and the hotel has 2 major fried chicken franchises right in front so the street is noisy. Yet the isolation is great! I had to open the window to realise the havoc of the neighbourhood. The night market is literally around the corner, which, as a solo traveller I really appreciated as it provided with fast and yummy Korean street food ans saved me from having to find a restaurant to sit alone :)
I highly recommend this hotel!

The hotel was designed in such detail and with such care that over the duration of the stay I kept noticing new little details everywhere. They spaced were stunning visually and very comfortable. The location is handy for visiting sites north (such as the palaces) or south (such as Seoul tower). Staff were friendly.
Just steps from Gwanghwamun Plaza, Four Seasons Hotel Seoul boasts commanding city views and features 5 in-house dining, a state-of-the art fitness facilities and traditional Korean saunas.

Don't stay here!! Upon arrival, we paid for the room in advance and also a deposit. When we checked out, we charged for the room once again. I saw the mistake, and then we only paid the incidentals. ( they removed the bill, and i had to only pay for the incidental) I was promised that they would realse the deposit. Over 2,5 weeks, we still haven't seen any deposit. I have all proof that so it is .. but they claim that I haven't paid for the incidental. I have proof ... thank God for transactions 🙏. We will see if we gonna need a lawyer... but this has been taking so much of my time and energy... such a waist ...
So ... DONT STAY HERE IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE SCAMMED!! And don't wanna waist time and energy to argue for their mistake.

Everything, the hotel is in the perfect.
Breakfast was not included but we paid it extra and it was totally worth it.
Location is also great, close to main attractions.

Fabulous - recommend you get there by 9am. Free to get in for over 65's but cheap anyway. Changing of the guard at 10am but you can easily walk around the grounds of the Palace on your own before then.

Large place but take up the opportunity to hire the Korean clothing - Hanbok. I did it at another location and just loved walking around in it. Free entry to the palaces if you do wear it. Much cheaper to hire outside of the palaces, especially at the Bukchon Hanok Village. Locals were coming up to us, to help me rety the ribbons etc, so it was very nice.

Had multiple rude encounters with the staff.
Had multiple rude encounters with the staff. They were rude to me in English and to my friend in Korean. It ruined the feeling of our whole outing. I don't care to return. My tip is to be more kind to guests.

People are talking about Gyeongbokgung Palace! Explore guest hotel reviews featuring "Gyeongbokgung Palace"
Perfect location for discovering this side of the city. Close to metro and bus stops. Close to Gyeongbokgung palace, big shopping streets and many more. Also very nice small restaurants in the area with good food! The room was very well cleaned every day and the staff was very friendly.
The location is near to Myeongdong market, Gyeongbokgung Palace and Seoul Station.
This hotel has coin laundry. You can wash and dry your dirty clothes less than 2 hours.
The receptionist who checked us in was good.
The location was convenient with one of the major sights, Gyeongbokgung palace just across the street, a 7 minute walk to the nearest subway station and a convenience store right next to the hotel. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for an affordable yet very clean and friendly environment. The staff were forthcoming and very kind. Will definitely come back for my next visit! My room had a fridge, kettle and daily room service.
The location was the best, just walking distance from Gyeongbokgung Palace. The area was very quiet. Just a 5 minutes walk, you can find a food street . The owner was so nice to allow us to check in early and give us detailed instructions on how to find the place.
The staff are very kind and helpful.
Very well connected by bus and metro. Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bukchon Hanok Village are very close, easy to walk to.
The view from my room was fantastic, overlooking the Insadong markets, and the top floor bar offers a panoramic view of the city.
If you're vegetarian or vegan, there is a restaurant called Vegan Insa that is very close (~5 mins. walk).
Since it was a one-day trip, I only went to Insadong, Myeongdong, and Cheonggyecheon, but the location was exquisite, so if I stayed for more than 2-3 days, I would be able to walk around almost all of the major tourist attractions and shopping malls in central Seoul, such as Insadong, Myeongdong, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace, Jongmyo Temple, Cheonggyecheon, and Gwangjang Market. Most of them seem to be within 1-2 subway stops.
It was nice to have a washing machine and microwave in the room
