Top Seodaemun Prison History Museum Hotel Reviews

Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station

10/10 Excellent

"Quick check in excellent staff esp front desk clean areas good quality of beds only complaint is laundry room is so small and inconvenient wish they have bigger and more machines available thanks"

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed a week at ENA hotel, it was great time to stay. Friendly staffs front desk and restaurant and house keeping. I ate breakfast at restaurant located in the hotel. Was great with reasonable prices. They serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Great location to go to anywhere popular places with subway and buses and trains. I will definitely choice this hotel whenever visit to Korea. * Room has small refrigerator and electric cattle and hair dryer. I requested that iron and board at the front desk when I check in. * If I have a food to make heat up, I brought to restaurant and they did for me. (Front desk people encouraged to do that)"

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

10/10 Excellent

"It was great staying there at the suites. I stayed for six nights and the suite is very clean and has everything you need to cook, do laundry with dryer. Its very spacious at 50sqm and has clean air and does not smell. The reception told me its new hotel that started business in q2, 2025 Location is a little far 15-20mins walk from Myeongdong main street but its good to have some walking after food. I feel safe walking back but you will walk along a short quiet alleys just prior reaching the hotel (depending the route you take). You can also get a taxi back for < usd 10. Transport is cheap so it beats paying top dollar for a stay within the street. However it is close to Gwangjung market and a short 15 mins walk to ikseon dong. I recommend you walk to ikseon dong for breakfast or lunch if you are late sleeper. There are some good options. Twosome place is just a 5 mins walk away if you want to grab a morning coffee. I don’t used the hotel amenities so i cant rate it but there are a couple of restaurants at the floor level that you can grab something to eat (not crowded) and convenience store at the second level. Hope this review helps in making your choice."

Hotel Manu Seoul Station

8/10 Good

"Overall a pretty decent stay. The room was clean and the bathroom was great! My TV did not work, i could have asked front desk but it wasn't a huge deal for me. Also, the elevators are kind of confusing at first, since the entrance is a bar/restaurant and the check-in desk is on the 2nd floor and there was no 2 button.. but obviously it's just the next floor up. Mainly booked due to distance from Seoul Station but forgot about stairs lol so beware if you are bringing heavy luggage and coming from Seoul Station; Exit 7 from Seoul Station (closest exit to the hotel) is just stairs.. stairs.. and more stairs. I suggest going on Naver Maps and using the "avoid stairs" option - which is how I was able to manage."
