    torn wallpaper
    poor service

    The initial room had torn wallpaper and mold. After reporting the issue, we were moved to a better room, but the ongoing protests outside were distracting. Service was inconsistent, as staff seemed unhelpful at times, especially during check-out when I needed help with my luggage.

    accessibility issue
    room condition
    luggage handling difficulty

    The location is perfect for exploring the vibrant shopping and food scene nearby. I loved the spacious Deluxe Twin Room with an outstanding view of Namsan Tower, making each evening special. The staff was friendly and efficient, always ready to assist. However, the only downside was the lack of lift/elevator access at the nearest metro exit, which made carrying heavy luggage a challenge. Also, while the room was generally clean, there were signs of wear and tear, which could be improved.

    missing wash cloths

    The location is incredibly convenient for exploring Myeongdong with the subway and street food right outside. The Deluxe Twin Room offered ample space, and the view of Namsan Tower was a lovely bonus. Our kids enjoyed returning to the spacious lobby after outings!

    In my wife’s opinion, the lack of wash cloths was a downside for our family.

    fantastic location
    awkward shower
    dated decor

    The Deluxe Twin Room was a decent size and very clean. The shower was a bit awkward since the head was fixed and pointed at you. If you need a roll-away bed, double-check before arriving because they didn't have one for us. The location is fantastic right by the subway, making it super easy to see the city. Breakfast had a solid selection, too! But the room felt a little dated overall.

    convenient location
    outdated décor

    The location was ideal for shopping and dining right outside

    the hotel. We enjoyed easy access to the metro and Myeongdong Market, which was just a short walk away. On the downside, our room felt a bit cramped and the décor seemed outdated.

    perfect for exploring myeongdong and nearby attractions

    the hotel is super close to myeongdong shopping street, making it easy to dive into local culture and shopping. The nearby namsangol hanok village offers a beautiful glimpse into traditional korean architecture just a short walk away. as a solo traveler, I appreciated the convenience of having the subway station right in front of the hotel for my explorations.

    great location
    clean room
    friendly service
    poor heating
    dated furniture
    central air

    The location of Sejong Hotel near Myeongdong is unbeatable. Just steps from the subway station, I found it easy to explore the city. The staff greeted me with friendly smiles, making check-in a breeze. The room itself was spacious, especially with four twin beds for our family, perfect for our group size. I appreciated the cleanliness of the room and the bathroom amenities provided. However, despite the spaciousness, the air conditioning system was a letdown. It seemed centralized, making the room uncomfortably warm at times, especially at night. I often woke up sweating because the temperature couldn't be adjusted lower. The furniture showed signs of age, and some areas in the room could use a refreshing touch. Overall, the comfort level could be elevated if the temperature control was improved. The breakfast offered a decent selection, but it didn’t change during my stay, which made the meals feel repetitive.

    The hotel emanated a cozy charm, decorated elegantly yet welcoming, making everything feel like home. The convenient access near Myeongdong metro and local shops is a delightful perk for seniors like me, making it stress-free to explore.

    More assistance with luggage would be helpful.
