The Grand Hotel Myeongdong

My wife found this hotel using TripAdviser and Google maps. It's a medium sized hotel, in a good location; only a block and a half from the Myeongdong stop of the subway. There are many shops and street vendors close by as well as several restaurants and eateries (you'll never go hungry in Seoul). The staff was helpful, friendly, and spoke English as well as Korean. The rooms are on the smaller side so with two teenage daughters, I got a second room. It was affordable and well-worth the space because you cannot get three or more people in the standard room. The room was nicely appointed with a shower. There were toiletries already in the bathroom; a nice touch (shampoo, very small bar of soap, two toothbrushes with small tubes on toothpaste, a combo comb/brush) as well as two robes and two pairs of slippers. The room had a small closet, which had a wall safe for your valuables, an electronic kettle, instant coffee, tea, spoons, and creamer. One of the things I liked about the room was that the air conditioning unit was ceiling mounted so you didn't have cold air along only one wall, which is typical of most American hotels. The twin beds were comfortable although there wasn't a sheet separating me from the heavy blanket. Hopefully the cover of the blanket is changed daily. We were very happy with the hotel and I would stay there again and would definitely recommend it. Only two issues; we stubbed our toes going into the bathroom as the bathroom floor is a little higher that the room floor and the wifi was terrible (almost unusable). Again, the staff was polite and spoke English, the hotel itself and our two rooms were very clean, complimentary two bottles of water, great location to be a tourist, didn't get a chance to have their buffet breakfast; they have a buffet reception of Fridays apparently, and the rooms were affordable. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend this hotel and location to friends and family.

The hotel is convenient in location. Easy access by airport bus and subway. Both in 3 min walk. Shopping areas surrounding the hotel. I booked deluxe twin. The room is bright, clean, tidy and quiet. Amenities and tea bags are good in quality, both are Jeji famous brands. The most important is the hotel front desk staff are nice and polite, can communicate in English.

Great location and clean. The hotel is near to Myeongdong station and bus limousine stop approx. 100 meters away (3-5 minutes walking). The staffs are very friendly. We were arrived there around 11am and they gave us early check-in. The room is small as mentioned, but it is enough room for two adults with 1 big luggage and 2 small cabin luggage.

Great location if you want to shop at Myeongdong shopping street. The hotel is right at the end of the shopping street. There is a convenient store opposite the hotel and many restaurants and cafe around the hotel. The two twin bed room is quite spacious but the bathroom is small. Only 3 mins walk to the airport limousine bus stop from hotel (15000₩ per person which takes about 1 hour to Incheon airport (bus 6001 or 6015). It's so convenient.

This hotel is modern and clean and a lot cheaper then most in the area. I think the next time I come to Seoul I'll probably stay here again and not change hotels:). Just the breakfast is very minimal for the price so I didn't try it. But if they have more varieties then it'll be worth it or else lower the price considerably to like 10000won/pax. There are a lot of restaurants/cafes in the area but very repetitive. Also it’s in the middle of shopping centre “Myeongdong “. I prefer this hotel out of all since price and room are better and it has coin laundry . 1 star off because breakfast isn’t good.

A great place to stay in Myeongdong. The hotel is strategically located in Myeongdong and is extremely easy to reach with just less than 2 minutes walk from exit 10 of Myeongdong Station. Front desk hotel staffs can speak fluent English and are very helpful. The room is clean and the room is bigger than most of the hotel in that area. The hotel is surrounded by various restaurant. Convenient store (GS25) is located just right in front of the hotel and the Myeongdong Street is footsteps away from this hotel.

I stayed in this hotel for my business trip for 3 nights. The location is great. It's located right in the shopping district of Myeongdong but it's not noisy as it is in the quiet side of the district. The hotel is quite new and the room is equipped with modern facilities. The front desk staff is very friendly and helpful. The downside was that the breakfast was kind of expensive and not with a lot of choices. However, the coffee is the best that I have ever had. In addition, they didn't provide other pillows for guests except for the down ones which are too soft for me. Overall, it's nice hotel to stay in and I would come back next time.

I enjoyed my stay at the Grand Hotel Myeongdong! It is super convenient and close to the subway/train. It’s located just off the main path of Myeongdong, literally a 30 second walk away. I went shopping multiple times during my stay because it was that good. The rooms were a little small which I expected. The rooms were clean. And the staff were really friendly and spoke English well. I did not have breakfast at the hotel, so I can’t comment on that. This was my 3rd time in Seoul, and I’ve never stayed in Myeongdong before. But if I am to stay in Myeongdong in the future, it will be at the Grand.
