New Blanc Central Myeongdong

It feels new and it’s so clean! Room was a bit small but we hung out mostly on the 18th floor lounge area with lots of comfy couches and tables for work/study and even a small private conference room for calls! There are free snacks and coffee, tea, and water there. And then shared kitchen in basement where you can also get conveniently packaged food to heat up in microwave or stove. And also a gym with all basic equipment and free self-service laundry. Just amazing. The location is also really nice. Lots of food options, convenient store, near bus and subway station (Line 2). 2 bus stops from Myeongdong street. And airport bus also stops at this bus stop just across the street. For this price, I would absolutely come back when I am back in Seoul!

This hotel was a very affordable and pleasant experience as a solo traveler. It was kept extremely clean every day. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was nice. Upstairs the snacks/coffee and rooftop were a nice touch. For my first time in Seoul I thought the location was fine. Sometimes it felt a little off the beaten path, but overall it was quiet and not touristy. It was very accessible to the subway and the airport bus was on the corner. The king size room had very little floor space for more than one open luggage so I would caution anybody sharing a room as it may be difficult. All in all it was a positive experience here and I do recommend it.

Rummet var ganska litet, ingen plats att förvara kläder om man stannar flera dagar. Bra sängar och funktionellt och fräscht badrum. Väldigt fin takterass och loungeutrymmen. Även bra gemensamt kök och tvätt/torkmöjligheter. Läget var bra med 50 m till flygbussen och nära till två t-banelinjer.

Great hotel. The only small issue was it was a bit outside of the main areas of Seoul. Hotel staff was quite nice. On 18th floor we could always get free coffee, the and water and on 19th great view and a bit of air befpre going out

We were on our honeymoon and chose unironically the "Cozy Double" room. It was very tiny unfortunately, with just enough room for two suitcases on the floor. There were a foldable luggage chair in the room luckily, so that one of the suitcases could stay on top of that. But I would recommend a bigger room if you are staying here as a couple. We are small people and we struggled a bit, so this would not work for mid-size/large people. So that is why there is a three star on comfort. Also because the pillow was too large and hard for my taste, but the bed was just perfect soft and comfy. The hotel is quite new and modern, and has very chic interior and rooms. Helpful staff that spoke good English. Mainly they offer self check-in, but they gladly assist upon arrival. I really liked that they had many services, like laundry, kitchen and gym. It was very quiet ans sound proof room, and not much traffic in the street below. Not a soul in the rooftop terrace on a Saturday night, so don't expect this to be a lively party and social hotel. Which was mainly good for us. Convenience stores like GS25, CU and 7/11 were all close by, but for global ATM, go to Woori Bank right across from the hotel. Luggage storage was helpful, and the 6015 airport bus comes and goes right down the road. If you're at the Incheon airport, simply choose bus ticket for Jungdu Office bus stop, and you will be right next to the hotel. It takes around 01h 40 min, so plan accordingly.

Self check in very quick but slow if it’s your first time. The beds were excellent but the person on the inside bed had to crawl to the bottom of the bed as there was no room between the bed and the wall. The gym has everything and on the 18th floor there is a huge room with tables and sofas for business and pleasure. Snacks and coffee were available.

The hotel is very close to Euljiro4 station. Your route to everywhere in Seoul. There is also a lot of restaurants, shops, and historical options within a 15 minutes walk. The housekeeping staff is unbelievably good. There is a digital system for do not disturb/please make up room, they strictly adhere. If you leave and take off so not disturb, seemingly at any time, they will still clean your room! It was the most accommodating system Ive ever been a part of. The front desk staff is very professional and helpful. I had a missing package delivery and wasn’t able to properly communicate the issue on account of language barriers. That said, they helped navigate me to a successful solution. 1 for free laundry machines 1 for shared kitchen Breakfast isn’t normal in Korea and can be hard to find. I wasn’t a fan of the breakfast on offer at the hotel, not because it was bad but because it was expensive and a weird mix of offerings. Highly recommend this hotel and would return.

Room was small but everything we needed, just no where to store cases without them getting in the way. Close to the metro and lovely roof top garden for a drink to watch the sunset!

The beds were comfortable and the shower had just the right amount of water pressure, however the breakfast was unimpressive. Also, the hotel provided a QR code as opposed to a room key, and the elevator often did not text the QR code which made it difficult to get access to floors.

We stayed here for a short visit during our final days in Seoul and the hotel really impressed us. The bed was large and super comfortable. There were only two pillows but they were very comfortable. The room had great lighting controls, big windows that opened for fresh air and an incredibly large TV. Netflix was not available but YouTube and other services worked fine. The bathroom was very nice with a strong rainfall shower, a big mirror and plenty of space. The location was excellent, close to Myeongdong and near subways, buses and the airport limousine. Staff were very friendly and spoke great English. The room came with slippers, plenty of towels, a safe, a mini fridge, a hair dryer and more. The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and modern. There was also a gym, restaurant, laundry room, shared kitchen and parking, although we did not use them. Lots of shops and convenience stores are nearby. For negatives the air conditioning was poor and the room became very hot, plus the unit made a rattling noise that disturbed sleep. The lift broke as we were leaving which almost made us late for the airport bus. The hairdryer was also flimsy and kept cutting out. Overall the hotel was modern, comfortable and in a great location, with a few issues that could be improved.

The hotel is fairly new and the location is good for getting to the Myeongdong main shopping area. There is a 7/11 around the corner and hotel provides luggage storage which is convenient. There was an unpleasant smell from the drains in the bathroom and after several follow-ups with the staff my room was finally changed. There is one non-steam iron in the hotel which is a struggle to use. As only one iron is provided for the whole hotel suggest to invest in a good steam iron.

Lovely, clean room! Very comfortable stay! A couple blocks from the subway. Highly recommend!

Very Clean

The New Blanc Central Myeongdong Hotel is quiet and modern. Room was very clean and well decorated. The hotel has a modern atmosphere and a very attentive Staff. The cleanliness is excellent and the breakfast has a good variety. The room was not big as I am used to... I guess this is normal within Asia. However, I easily managed around.

Perfect stay !! Very good location near subway and best spots. Nice room with city view. Very good bed and large bathroom. Very nice team !! I recommend !

Views was nice, very clean

Clean room, excellent and helpful staff for a foreigner like myself, overall pleasant experience with zero issues

I loved my stay at New Blanc. The room was so clean. Every day the housekeeper made up the room, it was like I had just arrived on the first day. The mattress is so comfortable! The room is small but I was travelling solo, so perfect for me. It’s in a quieter neighbourhood but so close to 2 metro stations. 1 is less than 5 mins walk and another 10 mins away that goes straight to Seoul station. The neighbourhood is full of furniture stores, so not a lot of shopping but only a 20min walk to main area of Myeongdong, so still easily walking distance to restaurants, cafes and shopping. They also have a beautiful rooftop with nice views of the city where you can relax and read a book with a drink. I highly recommend this hotel.

Very clean and comfortable room, convenient location

Cozy double was way too small for two adults…

주차비 별도 1.5만원에 주차타워였습니다. 방은 매우 작고 위와 옆의 소음이 그대로 전달되었습니다.

Got Superior King, still room too small. With 2 people, can't walk around. No place convenient place for luggage.

room is very small

Too small Shower room has no door. Outside the shower stall gets wet after shower. Extremely tight space in the bathroom.

Room was small but everything we needed, just no where to store cases without them getting in the way. Close to the metro and lovely roof top garden for a drink to watch the sunset!

Rooms are too small even to open luggages.

It is actually a few subway/bus stops away from the actual Myeongdong central area, but there is a bus stop in front of the hotel, turned out to be very convenient to go to the airport or other places. The only thing I really hated was the extremely poor insulation. I could hear perfectly when upstairs residents were walking around, taking shower or using the toilet. I have stayed in a 100year old building in NYC and the insulation was way better than this.i couldn’t sleep at all for 4 nights…it was like sleeping in a dorm rather than an individual hotel room..

Room was on the smaller side; I could not fit my check-in baggage on the floor. However, room was clean and decorated well. I would not recommend breakfast - it was not worth. Wifi is public/unsecure.

New Blanc was clean and quiet, and the staff were kind and communicative. It was conveniently located within walking distance of the subway line too, so it was a great location for our stay.

La chambre était très belle et propre. Le personnel était très courtois, gentil et souriant. Ils m'ont aidé à trouver une solution à un problème que j'avais. 10/10.

We stayed 6 nights and found the room very clean, with nice towels. We had the sun streaming into our room every morning so we never felt cold !We asked for an extra set of pillows and they were provided. The location is great - quiet and not noisy , near bus stops and walking distance to Myeongdong ( we could take buses to Myeondong or other locations) We used the limousine bus to travel to Incheon airport.It was really great to have use of the laundry washers and dryers . The reception staff were helpful and courteous. We had arrived early , about 1.30 pm and they said we could check into our room because it was ready. We had the standard King room . There wasn't much space but we managed to put both our large luggage bags on the floor and have them opened and stil have some space to walk to the bathroom and door. We would be happy to stay at New Blanc Central Myeondong again if we are in Seoul again.

Perfect stay !! Very good location near subway and best spots. Nice room with city view. Very good bed and large bathroom. Very nice team !! I recommend !

Staff at reception are very helpful. However in room assistance is non existence claiming they are too busy !!

Our flight arrived early, and we got to the hotel around 8 AM. While I had requested early check-in in advance, we were told no rooms were available and that there would be a fee if one became open. Standard check-in is at 3 PM, though we were advised to return around 2 PM. The staff held our luggage, which was helpful. When we finally got into our room, it was noticeably different from the photos shown during booking—somewhat disappointing. That said, over the next few days, the staff became more approachable and helpful when we had questions. The hotel is quite far from the attractions listed online—what’s advertised as a 10-minute walk usually takes closer to 30. Still, the property itself is clean, and the area is quiet, which we appreciated. Overall, it was a decent stay. A bit more warmth from the staff at the start would’ve gone a long way, but we might consider staying again for the peaceful location.

Giving 4 out of 5 stars due to a couple reasons. The room was small. However, it was very clean! No early check in and it was hard to reach them via email. Other than that, staff were very nice!

Email is difficult to find and staff don't reply to any of the emails. Only one staff at reception to manage a big crowd. Bath tub at terrace was terribly maintained - mould everywhere. Snacks at the lounge were very limited. Room is very small - no space for luggage. Amenities are limited - no refill for bottled water and no toothbrushes. Location is not in myeondong area despite its name. You got to walk through a shady alley for 20 minutes to reach myeongdong shopping area.

Room smelt a little like fish sauce, but the room was very clean. Our other friends who we went with room smelt fine so may have been just our side. The staff were so nice and helpful! Would recommend!

一泊だけでしたが、ベッドは広くテレビは大きくて快適でした。廊下ですれ違ったスタッフの方もきちんと挨拶してくださり好感が持てるホテルでした。

Lovely, clean room! Very comfortable stay! A couple blocks from the subway. Highly recommend!

地下鉄は主に行き先によって2駅利用可能でした。狭めの部屋を予約したので、荷物を開けっぱなしにするとスペースがなくなるため、寝る前にスーツケースはしまうようにしていました。明洞エリアへは地下鉄で2駅の距離ですが、散歩がてら歩いていくこともありましたし、バスだともっと便利で快適でした。シャワーの水圧は申し分なかったです。スタッフは日本語が通じてチェックイン、チェックアウトもとてもスムーズでした。

Overall a good stay, except the room we stayed (two twin) in was quite tiny. Didn't really interact with the staff except for check in/out, but it was done efficiently. It's a tad further away from the landmarks but minutes away from a train station. Not too much around but it's a quiet location. Amenities were as listed.

Too small, the rest was perfect. It’s like 15-20 minutes walk from Myeongdong.

Lovely clean hotel with really friendly and helpful staff. 15 minute walk to the street food in central Myeongdong and on 5 minutes walk from the subway. Room was a little on the small side with very little storage but a massive TV, but still comfortable, clean and well maintained. Great value for the price. Would recommend

Bra hotell för en kortare vistelse i Seoul. Rummen är små men det gick bra för oss. Hotellet känns fräscht och nutt. Frukosten hade några bra varma alternativ men det kalla vara ganska kasst. Några andra saker som var lite irriterande var att man inte kunde dimma ljuset i rummet eller badrummet. Vid dörren fanns en lampa som gick på sensor. Sensorn var väldigt känslig så lampan släcktes och tändes hela tiden. Vi löste det hela med en tejp. Personalen var trevlig men det var lite udda att vi först nekades en extra nyckel trots att vi var två personer. De kunde inte heller ge oss en extra kudde. För priset var det en bra vistelse.

The staff is nice, but away from the action. Had to walk a mile to get to the nearest market. The free coffee is horrible, but the TV is actually quite amazing. There is a bank, Woori, across the street for cash. Use the machine on the right though, left one is local. I would stay in a more central location next time. Unless you want to buy a scooter, not much nearby. Expedia has been really disappointing as far as accurate descriptions. Not a fan of the hotels, the tours are great though.

朝食は普通以下なのでつけない方がいいです。

Rummet var ganska litet, ingen plats att förvara kläder om man stannar flera dagar. Bra sängar och funktionellt och fräscht badrum. Väldigt fin takterass och loungeutrymmen. Även bra gemensamt kök och tvätt/torkmöjligheter. Läget var bra med 50 m till flygbussen och nära till två t-banelinjer.

Le faltarían algunas amenidades como restaurant

Just a short one night stay and wanted to stay near myeongdong. Not a lot of things to see/eat right near the hotel. It did have a 7-Eleven right next to the hotel. The lobby with the cafe was welcoming and the people in the reception were super friendly. Room was comfortable but on the small side but everything was new. The lounge was large but nothing exciting. Ideal for eating takeout with a group. Can’t beat the price for the location and ideal for younger travelers.
