AMID HOTEL SEOUL

Insa-dong, 0.8 km from Gwanghwamun

"Amid hotel has always been our choice when we stay in Seoul. The hotel location is perfect, within walking distance to all popular spots like the bukchon hanok, Insadong shopping street and Ikseondong area. Myeongdong is also nearby, yet the hotel is in a more quiet spot opposite Jongno Police building. Getting from the airport is also convenient via airport limousine bus and it only takes a couple of minutes from the bus stop on Jong-ro near Jongno tower. Amid staff are very accommodating and...

"This place was absolutely wonderful. The staff was super nice, the room was clean, the beds were comfortable, the little bath spa in the room was as great the kids had a blast. They have ramen and cereal with milk 24/7 if you want a snack and is free. There’s also a 7eleven next to the place. Is well centet d lots of retaurants and even though is on a busy well known street it is quiet. We absolutely love this and it is now our favorite place to stay in Seoul. We are looking forward for lot more...

"I must say, this was an excellent choice, and value for money. The rooms and service felt luxurious. Even though we slept until 2pm, the cleaning crew waited and came to clean in the afternoon. The hotel was well connected to myeongdong by underground walk, so you don't have to worry about heat or rain. Take the airport bus to Westin Josun, it's next by. You don't have to climb metro stairs with heavy luggage. Convenience store next by."

"The staff was friendly, location was AMAZING! A little challenging to find at first but once you do you’re going to love it. Walking distance to the train station and airport limousine bus stop! Food places are walking distance. Room was small but cozy! The washing machine was a plus! Figuring out the heating was tricky but once you do all is well! Fresh towels, water daily downstairs. Would stay again! "

Jongno-1.2.3.4 ga-dong, 0.6 km from Gwanghwamun

"The location is great, a short walk away from the main palace, not far from other main attractions and close to transport links like subway stations/bus stops. The accommodation was clean and well maintained, but the rooms were much smaller than they appeared on the photos. Due to the rooms being so small, there isn’t much space to pack away or hang up your clothes if you’re staying in Seoul for a while. It was less than ideal to live out of my case and not have as much space as I had...
