Hotel berhampiran Stesen Jonggak, Seoul

I stayed here for a few days at the end of my solo trip in Korea and it was perfect for what I needed. The capsules are spacious and comfortable with plenty of storage available under the bed, in the locker room, and at reception. The communal areas were all really nice and clean, there was a free breakfast, the location is great for transport links and it’s on a street full of bars, restaurants and pocha tents (photo). It wasn’t a super social place it had a more relaxed vibe, but I did meet some other travellers and the price was also really good so I’d recommend this place to anyone solo travelling!

This is a great hotel right in the heart of the city, close to several metro stations and in the middle of a lively nightlife area. It’s practically across the street from the airport bus stop, which makes it very convenient when traveling with luggage. Despite the central location, it was quiet at night. The hotel occupies the 4th and 5th floors of the building, with a Thai restaurant on the lower floors. The room was simple but had enough storage space. Since I was staying alone, it felt quite spacious though for two people it might be a bit tight. The only real inconvenience was the shower without an enclosed cabin, but everything dried quickly and there was no musty smell, so it wasn’t a big issue. Although the hotel is relatively new, some areas already show a bit of wear, but it didn’t affect my stay at all. Everything that mattered was clean and well-maintained. I really liked that guests can help themselves to fresh towels, toilet paper, or bottled water at any time. There’s also a small kitchen area where you can make coffee or instant noodles, as well as washing machines available for use. Special thanks to the hotel manager. He was very kind and helpful and quickly solved my luggage storage issue. It’s also very convenient that you can contact the hotel through several different messaging apps. I stayed for six days, and the only minor downside was that the air in the room felt a bit stuffy when returning after a day out (since the air conditioner was off all day), but that was easily fixed by turning it back on.

Easy to find and access with AREX all stop train. You just need to transit from Incheon Airport to Gongdeok and transfer to Jongno 3 (sam) ga. Go to Nagwon-dong. This place near Insadong and Ikseon-dong. Reasonable price on autumn. The subway exit 4 is across this hotel. Only approx 150 meters distance. Despite negative comments out there, I loved this hotel and enjoyed my 3 nights spent. The downside was only there were a lot of dust here. Receptionist not always standby.

We had an easy time in our stay. Loved the full window wall. If there wasn’t a pillar in the middle of the room, the place would feel a lot more spacious. Bathroom is bigger than i feared, but warning to other asians: there is no bidet 🥲. Still a wonderful hotel.

The hotel is in a very good location. There is a small supermarket next door and public transit is very close by. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. I will stay there again.

The room was exceptionally clean and well-thought-out. I was impressed by how they managed to fit a full kitchenette and a washing machine into such a sleek, minimalist space. It felt much more like a high-end boutique hotel than a hostel. The bunk beds were sturdy and surprisingly cozy, making it perfect for traveling with friends. Plus, being within walking distance of two major subway lines made navigating the city a breeze. Truly a 10/10 experience for anyone who values both location and high-tech convenience!

This hotel is right in the middle of the Insadong and 5 mins walk from the nearest subway station. Near lots of tiny restaurants and shops. No frills so don’t expect anything special. Just clean and good for a short stay.

Room was unexpectedly big. Stayed with my daughter and it was pleasant. Location is conveniently located close to Gwanghwamum & Jonggak. There were plenty of food around the area too. We will definitely go back there to stay :

The owners take great care of the accommodation, so it’s very clean and nice. We chose a small room, but it’s cozy and we’re very satisfied! The rooftop terrace view is also really nice!!

We had a very pleasant stay at Extay Lounge Hotel. The location was excellent—just two bus stops away from Myeongdong, making it very convenient to explore the area without being right in the middle of the crowds. There’s also a convenience store nearby, and several restaurants right downstairs, which made grabbing food quick and easy. The hotel lounge was a nice bonus and a comfortable place to relax. Our room was clean, and the bathroom was well-maintained. The space was also generous enough to comfortably accommodate four people, which can be hard to find in many city hotels. Overall, it was a convenient, comfortable stay, and we would definitely consider staying here again.
