We had a great stay at the Travelodge Dongdaemun! The location is ideal—it’s centrally situated, so you’re never far from the Dongdaemun Market, Gyeongbokgung Palace, and all the downtown sights. Plus, being close to several subway lines made getting anywhere in Seoul super easy. ​The room was basic, but it was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. After being outside in the heat and humidity all day, coming back to a room with great, individually controlled air conditioning was a lifesaver for a peaceful night's sleep. The front desk staff was also very helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend if you want a clean, convenient base for exploring Seoul!

Me and my friend stayed here for 4 nights and we had an excellent time. The staff were all so nice and friendly and very accommodating. The first night we requested to change our room with 2 beds instead of one and they were able to make it happen. Thank you so much to the travelodge staff for making our trip very enjoyable!

The hotel was near the stairs to subway station so you don’t have to walk long in the cold especially during winter. There was a convenience store nearby. The hotel staff was helpful and the best part for me was the weighing scale by the elevators to weigh our luggage. That was really helpful for us to decide whether or not we need to add baggage allowance.

Travelodge Dongdaemun was clean, efficient, well located near major attractions in Seoul with close proximity to public transport, restaurants, and shops nearby. The room was quite small; however, it fit our purpose for sleep, shower, and kept our belongings secure - this is not a hotel if you like to spread out! If I had to pick one issue, it was shower water pressure and heat-up, which took fair amount of time on the 9th FL - otherwise, no complaints about this hotel and found the prices quite reasonable for an overall expensive major world city like Seoul. While not my first choice, I would definitely consider another stay.

Great location and friendly staff comfortable stay

We had a very nice stay at this hotel for a couple of nights. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was spacious enough for our needs. The location was perfect, just a 5 minute walk from the subway, with plenty of convenience stores and bus stops nearby. The only minor issue was that one small USB port didn’t work, but it didn’t affect our stay at all since everything else worked perfectly. Overall, a great experience!
