Dongdaemun Tourist Hotel

Great location. Near Dongdaemun station, and right next to the west gate of Seoul's old city wall — very scenic. Simple lodgings, good deal for the money.

This trip to Seoul, I chose to stay at the Dongdaemun Tourist Hotel, and the overall experience was very satisfying. I recommend it. Firstly, the hotel's location is excellent. It's just a few minutes' walk to the subway station and Dongdaemun shopping district, making it convenient for shopping, sightseeing, or visiting other attractions in Seoul. There are also many restaurants, cafes, and convenience stores around the hotel, and it's safe to go out at night with a lot of travelers. Next, the room environment surprised me greatly. The room is clean and tidy, with a reasonable layout and ample space. The bed is soft and comfortable, and the pillows and blankets are also very clean, allowing me to sleep well every day. Now let's talk about the hotel's service. The front desk staff are very professional and friendly, handling check-in and check-out procedures quickly. Staff can also communicate in Chinese, English, and Japanese, making it very convenient for foreign tourists. They also enthusiastically provided a lot of travel information and transportation advice, saving me a lot of time. Breakfast is served from 7:30 AM to 9:00 AM, offering a simple breakfast that is particularly suitable for replenishing energy before going sightseeing. The overall environment within the hotel is quiet and comfortable, ensuring good rest quality even near the bustling Dongdaemun. Overall, this is a very cost-effective hotel. Whether it's the location, environment, or service, I am very

The hotel is in an excellent location, right in front of Dongdaemun Station Exit 7, and only a 4-minute walk from the airport bus stop (6002). It’s very convenient for getting around, and nearby attractions like Cheonggyecheon Stream, Gwangjang Market, Chicken Soup Alley, Dongmyo, and the Yellow House are all within walking distance. At night, I enjoyed walking along the stream, and the Dongdaemun night view from my room was beautiful and relaxing. The rooms are newly renovated, clean, and comfortable. The bedding was cozy, and having an elevator made it much easier to manage luggage compared to a nearby hostel I stayed at before. The hotel also offers luggage storage, which was very convenient. I really appreciated the free amenities: coffee machine (the coffee was good!), ice, microwave, and even a ramen machine. There’s a self-service laundry where you can buy detergent at the front desk for ₩3,000. The staff were professional, kind, and helpful, speaking English, Japanese, and Chinese. They even assisted me with printing when needed. Other conveniences include a large TV with free Netflix, a The hotel exchange/charging machine in the lobby, and a convenience store and Lotteria right next door. Breakfast is provided free from 7:30 to 9:00 a.m., which is perfect for a light and easy start to the day. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay with a great location, clean rooms, helpful amenities, and friendly staff. I would definitely return and recommend it.

Old furniture, smells old ,like not been renovated since hotel build.

Convenient location to the Dongdaemun station and big market. This was the fastest check-in and checkout process I've ever experience. The room was smaller than expected but the bed was very comfortable. The heater can either be turned on or off. Can't adjust the temperature. The wood floor was warm which was perfect for the cold weather.
