Myeongdong Merlin Hotel Reviews

Really enjoyed staying the hotel. I could get the clear N-tower view directly from the room. 100% visit again.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The hotel is so close to many restaurants, coffee shops and two metro lines. It was also conveniently located to Gwangjang Market via a 10 minute walk, Bukchon Hanok Village 20 minutes via metro and Gyeonggbokgung Palace. You can easily hike Namsan Mt. Park all the way to Seoul Tower in about 90 minutes, starting from the hotel all the way to the top. The staff were very friendly and accommodating organizing taxi services and helping with directions to get around the city. The room needs a bit of updating but it was clean, functional, the bed was comfortable to sleep in and it had a nice view of North Seoul Tower. I would highly recommend this hotel and would gladly stay here again!

It’s not bad. But not very clean and many things r just old. From myeongdong 25 min by walk. 🥲

It’s a good hotel Not that new but ok to live Have a convenient store near buy

The hotel is located about 15minutes by foot from Gwanjang Market. We did not have breakfast. The rooms where clean. There was free bottled water in the lobby.

The hotel location is near the train station, the sightseeing view is nice but in the room a lot of damage items never repair

Very nice place, good location, nice view, and nice people!

Good location, nearby to a few train stations so I can choose to alight at different stops depending on where I came from. Amenities like soap, toothpaste, toothbrush, towels provided, as per stated in the listing. Common pantry at level 1 can be used, which has hot water, coffee, cutlery, microwave. Comfortable and recommended to stay.

Friendly and helpful staff. Near chungmuro station and 1 stop away from Myeongdong. Easy access pantry and unlimited drinking water. Shower curtain should be added, top cabinet above where cooking used to be done should be remove as it is dangerous. Overall good 👍

This is my second time staying here!. The staffs at the check-in counter are kind, nice and helpful. I requested for high floor this time and get 10th floor room👍🏻 the room looks nice, newer and cleaner than the first time I visited. I love the big mirror and smart TV that I can played netflix and youtube whenever i like. The location is one of the reason I rebooked this hotel. It’s not far from both Green Line (Eujiro-4ga) and Blue Line (Chungmuro) so easy to go Myongdong moreover restaurants and cafe are easy to find around and minimart is just next door.

Owner/Reception was very friendly and helpful with all our inquiries especially in navigating to the attractions that we wanted to go. We booked the family room with loft bed and we enjoyed it especially my kids. The room and washroom is very clean. They offer daily room cleaning, you just have to put the sign outside your door before 3pm.

I chose the hotel because of its location and price. However, I did not expect it was in such poor condition. It is very old, the room was very hot when we arrived, we had to put in the electric card first and turned on the air conditioner to cool down slowly. When we are about to sleep, we found that the quilt had blood on it!!! Will not come again.

Price very cheap Room big Have air con and heater Staff good Very big table for us bring food back eating Good to get free water bottle, free coffee. Clean moderate Location good Room with good view (big window)

Our experience in Merlin Hotel is nothing short but, amazing. The owner and staff of the hotel was friendly and helpful, they were very accommodating during our stay. Although the service and facilities may not be the greatest, in comparison to a 5 star hotel, it was sufficient and well equipped. The rooms does not come with toiletries, however, it is provided at front desk which is top-up daily by staff, and guest may take as much as they require. As for cleaning services, the staff will change towel (put it inside the provided basket) and do minimal cleaning of room (sweep or, mop the room) daily. The location of the hotel is near Chungmuro station, just take exit 8 (stairs) or, exit 1 (escalator; will require to cross road to reach hotel). The subway itself is an ideal station with intercepting line which is, Line 4 and Line 3. Additionally, it is also a stop away from Dongdaemun with transfer line of Line 2, Line 4 and Line 4. It is a walking distance to Myeongdong, approximately 10 - 15 minutes depending on your walking speed. Overall, I would definitely book this hotel again on my next visit to Korea, not because of the hotel location or etc but, the staff there who were an absolute ray of sunshine with their positive energy.
