I had a wonderful stay here for the few nights I stayed in Seoul. The hotel was easy to find for me. Location is great. The staff were very friendly and helpful (I landed early and they let me check my luggage. They even offered early check in but I was okay with waiting). Rooms were very clean and up to date. Next time I’m in Seoul, I’ll stay here again.

The hotel staff were superb and really helpful here with any request made. The rooms were clean and they were comfortable. They are remodeling so there’s a bit of construction happening so the outside area looks a bit messy. The hotel is a bit hard to find because the signs aren’t as visible. Overall, I enjoyed my week long stay and I would stay here again next time I visit Seoul.

"Perfect Stay: Great Location, Comfortable

Here’s a polished version of your review: --- I recently stayed at the newly branded Dormy Inn, and overall, it was a great experience! Although it was a bit confusing at first when taking an Uber, it’s really easy to find once you get there. The location is perfect—close to the MTR, with plenty of cafes nearby. It has a great vibe, and unlike the busy Myeongdong, it’s not as crowded, but still just as easily accessible. The food prices are lower than other places, and honestly, the quality is even better. The underground big bath is a real highlight, and the complimentary late-night ramen is such a nice touch! The bed was very comfortable, and while the room size is typical for a Japanese hotel, it was cozy and well-equipped, with bottled water provided daily. I really liked this hotel and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend it!

仁寺洞にあり、有名観光地はほぼ徒歩圏で便利です。日系ホテルなのでフロントスタッフは全員日本語対応可。宿泊客も半分くらいは日本からの旅行客のように感じました。やはり最大のメリットは大浴場サウナ水風呂があるところですね。少し狭いですが…

立地良く快適

鐘路界隈が好きで、地下鉄3路線、バスと何処へ出かけるにもアクセスが良く、クレタケ時代からのお気に入りです。毎日の水の追加、ウェルカムドリンクバー、夜泣きラーメン。極寒で冷えた身体に大浴場はありがたいです。ただロッカーが多いのに対しシャワーの数が少なく、裸で順番待ちなのは残念。(朝がチャンス)
