地下鉄の駅からは10分程度あるので、暑い中少し大変でした。 駅からの距離、部屋等、価格相応と思います。 部屋の清潔感は問題ありません。 道路から少し奥まっているので非常に静かでした。

This small hotel is a jewel. It is secluded next to the ancient Confucian shire grounds on a small alley with no thru traffic. You can walk five minutes to the Jongno 5 subway stop past at least five coffee shops and several small Korean restaurants and the ubiquitous 7/11 emergency food stores. There are markets in the neighborhood and the Insadong shopping area is conveniently close by. But get the kakao map app or have the address in Korean for a taxi driver or you will never find it.

Great for solo travelers

The room I had was very small - almost no space for more than one piece of luggage, but very much sufficient for solo travelers with all you need, hot shower with good water pressure, warm room, wide enough double-ish bed (though abit hard), vanity, big TV, and very neat and clean. Staff were very helpful too even late in the night. Would stay there again, is good value for money!

コスパは良いですよ。駅から１０分。

値段が安い方なので、マイナスもいくつかりますが、リピートしています。 マイナスなのは、まず立地。駅から１０分弱歩くので、重い荷物があると大変かも。 次にホテル前の小道が汚い。これは小道沿いの建物や店のせいなのでホテルのせいではないですが、景観を損ねていてホテルが損してます。最後にフロントが２４時間人がいるので夜中に出入りがしずらい。これは人によりますね。プラスに思う人もいるでしょう。マイナスは以上です。コスパとメインスタッフのコミュニケーションが良いので、１年に１回は利用しています。 ホテル目の前がバス停があるんですが、韓国の路線バスはハードルが高いのと、タクシーをつかまえるのも日本と比べるとつかまえにくいので、目の前のバス停から出てるバスの行き先や乗り方、タクシーを呼んでくれる、があれば、もっと客くるだろうにと思います。

들어가는 입구부터 이상한 곳같은 느낌이 들고 호텔이 아니라 그냥 모텔같은 것같았습니다. 돈에 비해서 너무나도 이용시설이 청결하지 못하고 화장실은 보통인데 침대랑 이불이랑 배게같은 것은 징짜 청결하게 좀 했으면 좋겠습니다. 그리고 소음이 너무 잘들리고 위층에서 하는 소리가 다 들릴정도였으니 이건 뭐,, 말 다했네요.. 급해서 호텔제로에 숙박을 했었지만 이건 아닌듯 했네요...

ぐだぐだ書いてるけど、結局は私にとってはリピートするホテルの１つです。

チョンノ３ガ駅から歩いて７分なので、買い物しすぎたらタクシーがいいでしょう。７分は結構つらいです。 しかし、近くに市場もあるし、24時間の入りやすいクッパ屋もあるし、バスが使える人なら目の前がバス停だし、見方によって評価が分かれるところです。夜中のフロントスタッフも、いない方が気が楽な人もいるだろうし、安全面でプラス評価の人もいるだろうし。 個人的には、スタッフが良いので後は普通だと思いますが、毎回ではないけどリピートはすると思います。日本語話せなくても別に困ることはないかな。

Nice staff and close to many attractions

Our stay was pleasant. It's about a 5 min walk to the subway, the bank is right in front if you need an ATM. The rooms are clean and the staff is really nice. The beds are bit hard but after two days we were fine and our backs didn't hurt at all. The area this hotel is in is pretty quiet.

Budget friendly central location in Seoul

This was our second visit to Seoul and Hotel Zero provided a great launching point for visiting many sights on foot as well as being extraordinarily convenient to the excellent Seoul Metro. While basic by American standards, the hotel served every need of ours and the staff was without fail pleasant and willing to assist. Check in was beyond a breeze - less than a minute! Close to all kinds of eating options - Gwang Jang market in particular was a lively spot just a few blocks away where we had excellent rice cakes, bibim bap, gimbap and hand pulled noodles for breakfast and snacks. The relatively adjacent Jongmyo Shrine is worth a look. All-in-all, we had a memorable stay.

good hotel rather than nice.

I stayed this hotel for a week in march 2017.visiting family n doing some shopping at near by dongdaemun market and namdaemun market. It is a good location of this hotel to reach all points of interested such as doing shopping ,strolling in old palaces and experiencing some hustle and bustle things in the dynamic city of korea. During my stay in this hotel I found great hospitality and home bound atmosphere. I feel comfortable and very lucky.

アットホームですよ。

駅はチョンノ３ガが歩いて１０分ちょっとかかります。 歩いてチョンノや市場（屋台食い所）まで行けるので、場所的にそれほど悪くはないですが、駅までぼちぼち歩きます。バスは目の前にありますが、観光客にはハードル高いかもしれません。 ホテルはいたって普通です。値段のおよそ1泊６０００円弱ちょっとだったので、まあ値段相応と言っていいかな。清潔感はあります。 フロントはおじさん、青年（日中）、青年（夜間）、おばさん、の４人を見ました。夜間もずっとフロントにいるので、友達がちょくちょく来たり、私自身頻繁に出入りしていたので、最初はちょっと、ずっといるのもなんだかなーと思いました。 日中のフロントの青年の方は、ちょっとなよっとしてますが、とても親切で、片言の日本語を言います。あくまでもかたことレベルなので日本語の期待は薄いです。 夜間のフロントの青年は、どちらかというと無表情。まあそれだけのことですが。 基本的におじさんもおばさんも日中の青年も、みなさんとてもアットホームな雰囲気をかもしだしています。６０００円弱でどこまで期待するか個人差あると思います。 最後に、機会があればまた利用したいと思っています。 丸３日間、日中も夜間も頻繁に出入りしていたので、日中のフロントの青年とは親しくなりました。

Nice place near the Palace.

My son and I arrived late after 2AM. The staff was there ready to check in. But they put us in a room with one double bed which is barely enough for my son alone. The next day, the hotel manager voluntarily moved us to a larger room with two beds. Not sure who made the mistake. But they corrected it without our complaining is a plus. The rest of the stay was nice. All requests were fulfilled immediately. The facility is small, without closet to put away your luggage. If you're looking for a large room like the one in the USA, you might be disappointed. The bed is more comfortable than the US. The internet is faster than the US. You can find everything, and all directions on internet. Over all, the manager is very nice and willing to help. And the location is great in the middle of the city -- Nangdaemun Market is within walking distance (one stop subway).
