Cheongunhyoja-dong ski-in/ski-out rentals

Great room in a no fuss building. Nothing fancy but clean and very comfortable. Not having staff made my check-in difficult - it could have been a whole lot clearer to me (and other travelers I met in the foyer who were also very confused) when rooms might be available for early check in (I arrived at 9am) and how to access the luggage storage. Having clearer details for non-Korean travelers would be good.

Family of x4 perfect room as 2bedroom with kitchenette and x2 bathrooms. Quiet stay except if windows open hear protesters as embassies near. Also a Buddhist temple next to hotel with early morning drumming, gongs and chanting. Close the window at night. The staff in all areas were polite and welcoming especially the breakfast area which the food was tasty and a great variety. Location was perfect for the palaces, Insadong and close to Subway for all over Seoul. Highly recommend this hotel.

Location - great! Literally surrounded by restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, pubs, convenience stores etc at your doorstep. 15 min walk to Myeongdong's shopping district, 5 min to the nearest train/subway station (Jonggak), easy to hail a cab/taxi. No shopping to do except for one Olive Young (skincare and cosmetics) store a minute's walk away but food is 100% aplenty! Room itself was very clean and tidy. Size of the entire unit (we got the Main Building Suite which consists of 2 bedrooms, and 1 bathroom) was compact, but was good for us as we only returned to the room to shower and sleep. We had a view of the busy streets below so it was fun people-watching at night, street noise was expected but manageable. Towels were changed and bins emptied daily. Free bottled water daily. Shower was small but had good water pressure. Reception was very helpful the entire time with everything from luggage storage, check-in to sharing info about local shops/restaurants. Loved the laundry facilities - free to use washer and dryer next to the reception desk, but note it gets busy in the morning and late at night when everyone is back in their rooms. Honestly very happy with everything. Value for money! Would return with my family or friends:)
