Arirang Hill Hotel Dongdaemun

Excellent hotel, good facilities, great location. We stayed for 10 nights here and had an excellent stay. Good quality, well-appointed rooms. Ours was a superior double (24 square mtres) which is large for Seoul and comfortable for 2 persons with good sized luggage. Good bathroom with full sized bath. We had views over the mountains. Good cafe in the foyer and helpful and professional English speaking staff. Literally 2 mins to the subway and close to Airport 6011 bus stop. You'll be happy here. We were rescued by this hotel from our original hotel nearby that was very budget and poor quality despite good reviews. Arirang Hill Hotel though is a good choice and you'll be happy to return here after a fun day in Seoul. Close to all attractions and good restaurants and cafes all around.|

This hotel is perfectly located, literally less than 1 minute walk to the metro line 4, so easy to get everywhere in the city! Very clean and nice room. The lady at the reception wasn’t very friendly but the young trainee guy was lovely. Buffet breakfast was a bit limited, and the same every single day, but it did the job.Highly recommend this hotel. I’ll stay there again next time.

Location was convenient. Few meters away from line4 that takes you to most key places as tourist. There’s also a nearby bus stop, restaurants, shopping streets. Room has microwave, utensils, tableware, kettle, fridge, even stove and cookwares. It was surprising to me but i guess it’s handy. Room Service was also nice. Only downside is that AC is centralized so it was really hot for us during winter stay. Keeping windows open doesnt help because the road could be loud even during midnight.

One of the female hotel reception staff attitude is bad when she attended to our check in. Her tone was not friendly. The hotel room was okay for a triple room (3 single beds) for one night. The pillows and beds were soft. We stayed for few more nights in a room with king size bed and a single bed. Again, the pillows and beds were soft. There was a bath tub. The room was spacious and there was a small sofa overlooking the window area. The hotel location was conveniently located to Sungshin women’s university station. There were food retails and shops within walking distance. It was not was crowded as myeongdong but it was a good place to hang out at night. There was a very delicious steaming hot dumpling food outlet located very near the hotel. We tried the pork and shrimp dumplings. 8 for 5000 won. Worthwhile to try out.

We booked through booking.com. I have always had good luck with them. Anyway, great location to tuck in for 6 nights. Steps away from buses or metro. Night market near, as are lots of local restaurants. Gotta love coffee and bakeries nearby. There is also a Twosome coffee cafe in the hotel. There is a small fitness center and a coin laundry on 2nd floor. On-site restaurant as well. Staff was SO nice and friendly. Housekeeping was impeccable! Nice HOT showers and love the heated bidet seat! I would stay here again. Thank you!

Near numerous bus lines, in front of a bus station going north. 2 min walk from subway stations. Really convenient area. Near two convenience stores, a coffee place, a twosome place. Awesome staff. They would give me water anytime. Warm and cozy hotel lobby and 2nd floor

This hotel is amazing!!! I truly recommend visiting Seoul and staying at this hotel. You won't regret it! It's located in a very beautiful part of Seoul, surrounded by many interesting things. For example, across the street, you can find a big Olive Young store, and there you'll find everything you need for your skincare routine and more! Some blocks ahead, you can find a pretty popular street with several street food options like corn dogs, tanghulu, bungeoppang (Korean fish-shaped bread with a sweet red bean filling), several Korean BBQ places, pastry stores, a Starbucks (it's just right around the corner), clothing stores (very cute and cheap), candy stores and so much more. The staff of the hotel is kind and polite. They're always paying attention to the customer's needs. All staff members are great, but there are 2 staff members who are really sweet and they speak Korean, English and Spanish as well (one of them is called Evelyn Lee and she's just amazing. She's sweet, smart, and funny). The room's always clean and neat. It has everything you need for a comfortable trip. The cleaning service takes place once or twice a week, so I recommend you be very clean and organized to avoid having lots of garbage in your room. The hotel has its restaurant, which is very pretty and clean, but does not have a lot of options for breakfast, so if you buy your trip with the breakfasts included be ready to have the same dishes every day. On the 2nd floor, it has a laundry, a small gym, a water dispenser for you to have cold or hot water, and a microwave (in case you want to have lunch in your room hehe). In the lobby, you can also find a coffee shop called Two Some Place with good choices of coffee and delicious cakes (and you have a discount if you show you're a guest). I had a really really great time staying here!!

Twin bed room size was adequate and Breakfast had quite a nice spread. |Hotel in great location and accessible by subway. Plenty of shops around there as well. There is a cafe within the hotel with enticing looking cakes which can be brought up to the lounge.
