The Prima Hotel is in a fantastic location in Jongno if you're a tourist. It was super close to the Insadong cultural area and walking distance from Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village and Cheongdeokgung Palace. The staff were incredibly helpful and polite, helping us to book taxis and arrange a dinner reservation, and very understanding of our one-word Korean vocabulary (thank you). There was always someone on the desk who could help us in English. They even called our taxi when we left something behind in the lobby on our last day! Beds were comfortable, showers great, and there was a useful 24h coin-op laundry, and snack and vending machine. The cafe on site had coffees, pizza, fresh juice and mini pastries, a good option if you're after a very quick breakfast or evening meal and too tired to continue exploring! Also lots of art to look at in the public areas, so a nice ambience.

Thank you for a wonderful stay at the hotel. I want to highlight several aspects that made the stay particularly pleasant: Everyone provided efficient and friendly service, from the reception staff to the housekeeping team. Additionally, the room amenities were of high quality, and we enjoyed the quiet atmosphere. We loved the tea selection and toiletries in the bathroom. Great location in Myeongdong. Finally, we made an unusual request to store our luggage while we took a short trip to another destination in Korea, and the staff graciously agreed. All these factors made the stay successful, and I will certainly recommend your hotel to my friends and family.

I was traveling alone for visiting Seoul for the first time, and Sunbee was a really good choice. I stayed for 5 nights and think Sunbee is good for both short and long term stays. The location is perfect, the staff very helpful and nice. Was clean and spacious room. I also really enjoyed the big bathroom. I also liked that there’s a small cafe in the hotel - so was perfect for grabbing coffee first thing in the morning. Would stay again !!

    Probably the best palace in Seoul, undergoing a long process of restoration and reconstruction. Entrance is cheap, and free if you wear a hanbok (traditional Korean clothing, that can be rented all around the area). Once a month there is a special night opening, with all the palaces lit up

    Billions of visitors wearing tacky costumes (It is free some day or some time for people wearing hanbok, which is normally so beautiful). Should come back when it is -20 degrees C so it might be less crowded. Did it with a guide, Joy, who was nice and informative.

    Fabulous - recommend you get there by 9am. Free to get in for over 65's but cheap anyway. Changing of the guard at 10am but you can easily walk around the grounds of the Palace on your own before then.

    Large place but take up the opportunity to hire the Korean clothing - Hanbok. I did it at another location and just loved walking around in it. Free entry to the palaces if you do wear it. Much cheaper to hire outside of the palaces, especially at the Bukchon Hanok Village. Locals were coming up to us, to help me rety the ribbons etc, so it was very nice.

    Sam House is in an excellent location. It is within walking distance from the Gyeongbokgung palace and many cafes/restaurants. We used a coffee shop for our morning coffees, which was literally next door, but it was still quiet and felt private. When we had small issues with a bathroom light and an AC remote control, the owner addressed these promptly and efficiently.

    Loved the location, how comfortable the room is and clean. The view from the room was outstanding, you could see gyeongbokgung palace from a distance, and my most favourite feature was a high quality cot was made available for our daughter.

    A small but cosy apartment well located in a quiet area a 10 minute walk from a metro station, and a 15 minute walk from Gyeongbokgung palace. It was clean, the bed was comfy, the air conditioning was effective and overall it was very good value for money. It was easy to find and to check in, and the host was friendly and responsive.

    The hostel is located in a very good position for first timers in the city: close to the main palaces and major tourist attractions, such as the hanok village, the Gyeongbokgung Palace, the Gwangjang market. It is very accessible and offers a convenient check-in and entry procedure with a code. It also provides good privacy: During my stay, the public spaces were very quiet and the other guests have been respectful.
