Seoul hotels in Mapo-gu

Pros: The staff was amazing. Kenneth the owner of the place was very friendly and helped with all the questions and even gave a live performance. The girl of the reception even helped us with washing our clothes. They were overall the base of an amazing vacation. The location is also amazing, it is a 5 minute walk to the subway station Hapjeong and from there on everything is reachable by subway. There are 3 supermarkets around for convenience! Also, Hongdae is one subway station away or a 15 minute walk. All with all an amazing stay and would definitly recommend the accommodation to friends, even if it was for the amazing staff! :)

Pros: The staff was excellent to the point where I would be willing to stay here again if only because of the service. If you are going to Seoul to party, this is a good value option. The convenience of a pub and laundromat on the first floor is excellent as well. The location is a short walk to the Hongdae area which is always a good place to hang out.

Cons: The rooms had very thin walls and I could hear people coming in loudly at all hours of the night. I could clearly hear every word of conversations happening around me. The beds were very thin futons, which isn't bad for the price but I've had better for similar prices. For the purpose of my stay (a rest night before a race in the morning) this was not an ideal place to be.

Pros: Spacious bed! Got lots of room for your things and with a small cabinet to keep your important belongings.

Cons: None.

Pros: Friendly atmosphere and easy going.

Cons: Kenneth the owner is a legend! So happy, friendly and helpful! Laid back and happy for people enjoying themselfs. Beds are really comfortable nice atmosphere and not far from hongdae shopping street which is super fun!!!

Pros: The staffs and manager are very welcoming and helpful. Ken, the manager is very accommodating, he gave me free beer on my last night as a treat. I asked Ken to help me get a cab from Inno to the subway station, instead, he was very generous to drove me to the station at no cost. I would definitely recommend Inno Guesthouse to my friends and other travellers. At Inno Guesthouse, you will never feel alone ❤️

Pros: Place was amazing!

Cons: Stairs were steep, luggages were hard to carry upstairs.

Pros: Bed and the room was very comfy and clean! Staffs are great! Highly recommended!

Cons: Bathroom below was shared with other people going to the pub

Pros: Nice and quiet place. Good for a group of young people.

Cons: Even it also close to station exit 3, it is a little bit far from central Hongik shopping street (exit 8&9). For me, a bed is not so comfy but it has a heater each bed.

Pros: Host is very accommodating and the room is very cozy.

Pros: Honestly, I like everything in this hostel. We stayed in the english flag room, the room is at first floor, so we have no problem whether this place has no elevator. The room is big enough for 3 of us, we can laid 3 big luggage on the floor and still have space to walk. The bed is so comfy, they provided us the top-sheet with heater so it’s so relaxing in a cold night. The shower is good. The location might be a bit away from main shopping street and station but not too far for walking, yet it’s in a quite neighborhood, really suitable for getting a good sleep. Breakfast is standard. Staffs are really friendly and helpful, even though they are not very fluent in English but there was no problems in communication. Definitely will comeback here again!!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: the location was very convenient close to a mayor train station linking directly to the airport. Lots of bars, cafes and places to enjoy some food right at your doorstep.

Pros: Friendly and kindly staff, Nice location, I like room concept and decoration, bed are comfortable

Cons: My room has some smell from kitchen while someone was cooking and mosquito at night

Pros: We spent one week in this place, which is very nicely located as near the subway that goes straight to the airport or to downtown. Many places to go out nearby, from walks to restaurants. The family room was nice and clean. Breakfast was good. Nice staff, although often not around.

Cons: It is more a DIY place than a hotel or a guesthouse. Not much room for breakfast when all guests are in the kitchen at the same time. Towels could have been changed as we stayed one fool week.

Pros: Friendly and helpful. Free use of washing machine. Very close location to food and station.

Cons: Flr space is a bit small for 3 of us. Cant open all luggages tog.

Pros: Good location close to the subway. Pretty cramped with a minimal toilet shower shared by all. Really loud group upstairs. I was stuck by the door wick meant I woke up anytime somebody came or went. Would rather pay the same or more for a normal/clean/private bathroom.

Pros: Good place, Nice neighboorhood, kind staffs

Pros: Room was clean and workers were helpful. The location was also quite good.

Cons: There was not plug near beds and there was not a mirror in the room. And the beds were uncomfortable especially you’re near or over 170 cm.

Pros: Is in quite area of Hongdae.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location!! It's center of Hongdae. The staffs were nice.

Cons: It would be better if they clean room during the stay.

Pros: The location is perfect: close to shops, restaurants and subway station (Hongik exit 7). Staff is lovely.

Cons: The dorm (room 6) was too warm for my liking. The bathroom floor could use a good scrub.

Pros: room is clean, good location. cozy place

Cons: nothing

Pros: The location is great, the staff is friendly, the place is quiet, free breakfast and not too crowded.

Cons: Nothing much.

Pros: There are a few convenient store at the guesthouse area, you could get some snacks and drinks easily. The guesthouse is locate at the opposite of the most happening street at Hong Dae, and it is also near to the airport bus station. Friendly staff, they will let you know the details of the stay when you check in.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: The location was great, only 10 min walk to Hongdae metro station and very easy to explore the Hongdae area from. The room was clean and basic but that was fine as not spending too much time in the room. The kitchen and common area was nice, a few comfy couches so good for hanging out. It was nice to have breakfast too, it was simple, tea/coffee, breads, jams and eggs but good to have something in your stomach before heading out for the day.

Cons: Our room didn't have hot water 3 days in a row. It was working fine the first and second days of our stay. We tried in the morning and at night but still cold. Some people were loud coming back to their rooms late at night, talking loudly in the corridor and banging room doors. Not the guesthouse's fault but if they had a member of staff working at night it might help reduce noise.

Pros: All in all great Location and a very quiet place to calm down. Just 5-10 min walking from the pulsing hongdae centre. Good price

Cons: Beds are not very comfortable.

Pros: Breakfast was buns, bread, coffee, juices and hard boiled eggs. Location is excellent! Very hip district, lots of cafes and places to visit in the area. It's located near the Hongik University Station (exit 1), as well as bus lines-- extremely convenient, especially for going to/from Incheon Airport. Facilities were clean and look like the pictures. Staff are nice!

Cons: I had issues with hot water, but that might be due to me not understanding how plumbing and hot/cold water mixing in Seoul works??

Pros: This place was clean comfortable and in a good location! I would definitely go there again!

Pros: Spacious and convenient

Cons: No gym facilities

Pros: The location was fantastic! The bus stop to the airport and city buses were just right in front of the building, and there were lots of places to shop and eat. Even though the hotel is located in a busy neighbourhood, we didn't hear any noises from outside. We will definitely stay at this hotel again!

Cons: I think a shower curtain would've been helpful to have for the shower. We really enjoyed the location and our stay, but better soundproofing would have improved our experience. Also, I felt the room was quite dark even with all the lights.

Pros: The bedding & mattress is okay, clean enough. Location is good, very close to the airport bus station, within 5min walking distance.

Cons: Aged room enviroment, super dark in the room, not enough lighting. I was assigned in a lower floor, although there’s a window but it’s facing to the patio of the building, no sun light reaching at all and rubbish & smell if I open the window. Cleanliness not satisfy, I found a bunch of hair in the toiletries basket and also on the floor. The wardrobe with strong smells that I totally don't want to store my clothes. Sound isolation extremely bad, I can hear the moan from next room til late. The hotel seems wasn't full at all during weekday, but I really don't understand why the staff keep assigning different couple to my next door. I can even hear the clear conversation of the couple who stayed from next to my room. Disgusting smell from the toilet as well.

Pros: Spacious room, clean and good location

Cons: The room had a funny smell which i didnt like

Pros: It’s very convenient. Advisable to take airport bus 6002 if you have big luggage’s as it is less than one minute walk to the hotel. Nearest station from Hongik University Exit 9 however there are no escalator so it will be harder for you to carry your luggage’s. Room is spacious and clean. Very near to Hongdae street and restaurant.

Cons: Bed is too soft and language barrier. Check in time is strictly at 3pm. Wall is too thin and we are able to hear next door movement.

Pros: great location

Cons: it’s pretty dark not good lighting smell weird

Pros: Cheap

Cons: No heater in my room. It was so cold because its winter The male staff go in and out of female room without any prior notice

Pros: The guest house just been renovated it's was really nice and clean The staff was great especially Mathias who cared so well about everything. Thank you

Pros: Friendly and helpful staff who help me to post the item that I accidentally left at the guesthouse to me, good location, near to convenient store and subway station

Cons: Should have install curtain for each bed in shared room

Pros: 친절함 수건 줌 worth the money

Cons: 지저분함 시끄러움

Pros: Only for female so it is comfortable CCTV in certain areas make me feel safe Simple but warm The staff was very responsive

Cons: Location is quite far from train station

Pros: Really comfortable

Cons: Nothingso far..

Pros: Loved the staff, the hostel has a great location and a cozy atmosphere. Chio and André helped me around the city every day with places to see and eat and made me feel like home. Great value for money. I really enjoyed my stay in Seoul, and Kimchee Guesthouse was the perfect choice for accommodation. I will definitely come back.

Cons: I had a nosy roommate that was making noise several times when I was trying to sleep, but it's alright as I stayed in the 6 beds dorm so I didn't expect everything to be perfect.
