Stanford Hotel Myeongdong
10/10 Excellent
"The breakfast buffet had a nice assortment of foods. Some of the dishes changed each day, which was a nice change. The hotel is very clean and the staff very kind. Location is great."
"The staff were wonderful and helpful, a pleasant surprise that they all had English language skills (certainly better than my Korean). The room was modern, quiet, and clean, with a comfortable bed and pillows. We had breakfast included, the selection got a little repetitive after 3 days, but it was well prepared. We also liked the location, we walked to just about everywhere. I would stay here again on future trips."
"Amazing staff, rooms always clean as well as the overall hotel itself. Has a gs25 right outside and another convenience store inside the hotel ( I forgot the name of it ) so that’s super helpful for snack and goodies at anytime of the day. Perfect place if you as me"
"Stayed at the GLAD Hotel and overall had a good experience. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was large with excellent water pressure. The location was convenient with plenty of good restaurants within walking distance.
The main downside was the noise — kids running through the halls and doors slamming made it difficult to fully relax at times. Also, the “airport shuttle” is somewhat misleading. It’s actually a public city bus pickup located about 1.5 blocks from the hotel, not a dedicated hotel shuttle.
It was farther distance to many sites than I expected but Overall, a comfortable and well-located hotel with a few drawbacks."
