Upon the entry to the hotel, you can see how clean and modern it is. Didn't expect it from 3 star hotel at all. The staff was friendly and always happy to help. There's a gym, common kitchen and a laundry room if needed. Cleaning was daily and very thorough. Beds were comfortable with clean bedsheets. Pillow cases were changed every second day.

A 3* hotel that is better than some 5* ones, it does feel like a luxury hotel! Great location, nice room with a bathtub and shower, super comfortable bed, wonderful helpful staff, lots of places to eat and shop nearby. Bus stop and metro just a couple minutes walk. We also really enjoyed the movie theme. And the minibar is free of charge and refilled every day.

The location is fantastic, especially for the food markets and the Korean cosmetic shops. Walking distance to buses and train. The room was a family one and it was plenty big enough with everything you need.

My Hanok Hotel Daam experience was amazing. They have a very clean and comfortable room. The staff is very helpful and very friendly. I had a very long and tiring flight from Dubai to South Korea and Lily made my day. The breakfast is so delicious and healthy and there is a lot of option. I really feel the cultural vibe of this hotel.

The property is very clean. We arrived in Seoul early in the morning and we could leave our luggage at the property before checking in which was really nice. We had another reservation at the same property for another 5 nights and the owner switched their scheduling around so we could stay in the same room which was very nice of them. We’ll definitely stay here again if we come back to Seoul.

    It was a very good deal for a budget traveller considering the location, it's perfect and easy access to almost everywhere and everything. For an Asian like me, the room's size was just enough. Special thanks to the staff who let me checked in early coz I wasn't feeling well. Will stay here again if I'm traveling solo to Seoul again. :)

    Money for value a great deal. Location is hard to beat as it's in Myeongdong's heart and connects to many tourist sights even in walking distance, has plenty of bus and metro connection in proximity too. A great start into Seoul on a budget. It was clean and tidy. Free drinking water in the kitchen and other amenities.

    This is a very good budget place. It is well managed, spotlessly clean, excellent location, nice staff. The accommodation style is ‘goshiwon’ - very basic and cheap. So you get what you pay for.
