Ramada by Wyndham Seoul Dongdaemun

Great location within walking distance of both Palaces. Hotel staff is VERY friendly and helpful. On site restaurant/cafe has great coffee! Everyone was super helpful. They even have a scale in the lobby so you can weigh your baggage before going to the airport. Told us about the airport bus which stops at the next block. Much less expensive than a taxi. Bathroom shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, lotion, all smell wonderful. Great stay!

Review of Ramada Namdaemun Hotel – A Horrible Experience I rarely write reviews this harsh, but my stay at Ramada Namdaemun was truly one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had in all my travels. I chose this hotel because I used to work across the street, and I thought it would be convenient. Big mistake. Let’s start with the condition of the facilities: everything is old, worn-out, and in desperate need of renovation. The furniture is falling apart, the bathrooms are outdated, the Wi-Fi is unreliable, and the amenities are practically non-functional. Towels felt more like sandpaper than fabric, the phones are old wired relics, and the overall atmosphere screams neglect. Don’t let the lower rates fool you—this isn’t “value,” it’s simply cheap quality. I even took photos to prove just how bad it really is. But the real dealbreaker here is the horrendous service and unbelievably rude staff. One employee in particular, “Nate,” stood out for his arrogance and dismissiveness, but unfortunately, the female staff I interacted with were no better. When I extended my booking, I was told they “weren’t responsible” and I should call Expedia myself. On top of that, I was forced to check out at 11 a.m. and wait until 3 p.m. to check back into the same hotel. That level of indifference to guests is unacceptable. When I asked simple questions—like recommendations on where to eat—the staff’s response was literally, “Look it up on Google.” And don’t expect any basic service: requests for water, towels, or necessities are flatly denied. It’s shocking that a hotel operating under the Ramada name would treat paying guests this way. For context, I’ve stayed at hotels all over the world—luxury and budget alike—and I’ve never encountered such a combination of outdated facilities and appalling staff behavior. If these employees worked for me in sales, I’d fire them immediately without hesitation. Bottom line: I will never stay here again and will actively warn others to avoid it. With similar pricing, you’ll get infinitely better service and comfort at hotels like VOCO or Fraser Place. I transferred from Courtyard Marriott to Ramada Namdaemun, and it was one of the biggest travel mistakes I’ve ever made. Avoid this hotel at all costs. Ramada Namdaemun is a disgrace to the brand.

Big clean rooms! Comfortable beds, and the room gets cleaned everyday. They even changed the sheets everyday. Hardwood floors, so no dust like when the room is carpeted. So much storage. Huge fridge in the room. Great location. Definitely recommended!

This hotel offers a delightful blend of comfort and convenience. Its location provides easy access to the vibrant city center. Guests can enjoy a relaxing atmosphere after a day of exploring. The well-appointed rooms and excellent service create a memorable stay. You'll find this hotel a perfect base for your adventures.

The service is just superb. The best one we had in Korea. I love the fact that they can check in you earlier complimentary. The room was very clean, cozy, the bed comfortable. Room temperature was great (in other hotels in Seoul during spring felt cold for us). And great money/value as well.So for the hotel is 10/10. This is near DDP and 5 min from subway station. But not many restaurants nearby, still central, and good for tourists for sure, safe etc.Recommend it!

Very good placeto stay, right in the center of Seoul. Near the Gwangjang Market, and Dongdaemun Design Plaza. The staff allowed to store our luggage before check in time, and they can speak in clear English. Near bus station and airportbus (limousine bus). Have cafe at the lobby, near GS25, Olive Young, CU, and 7-11. Great room service, have lots of ammenities, but the breakfast menu options wasn't very good, just okay.

This hotel has exceeded our expectations! We really liked it! We had a spacious room on a high floor with a beautiful view of Seoul. The room has everything you need - bathrobes, cosmetics, plenty of space, everything is very comfortable. Room was clean and cozy. Hotel has nice location. There is a cool coffee shop next to the hotel, where we went for coffee and breakfast. Very convenient.Highly recommend for stay in Seoul! :)

I've stayed in a lot of hotels in Korea and this one definitely had some of the better rooms for the price. It's in a pretty good location too, walkable to the subway and many shopping centres. Lots of food options nearby too, include a convenience store next door which came in very handy multiple times! The service was good, and the staff were lovely and helpful. I needed help to find a post office and the staff member on duty went out of his way to draw me a map which I appreciated. I believe there's a restaurant there too, but it wasnt open when i was there (not an issue given the range of options around the hotel). I would stay here again!
