I haved stayed at several of the large hotels in the center of Myeong-dong, and the new modern style, large, clean rooms and friendly staff eclipse them all. The staff went out of their way to keep me in the same room on my long 2 month stay, working with me on my reservation schedule. Their kindness made it a pleasure leaving and returning to the hotel each evening. You feel that you and your valuables are safe, but lock up any serious cash. The hotel location is directly between the center of Myeong-dong and Namdemun market, literally a 5 minuite walk to either, centering around Shinshigae department store. The hotel is about a 2 minuite walk from the Bank of Korea, on the same side of the street. Stay Classic hotel's entrance has a orange liner in front around the door, you can't miss it. The front desk is manned 24 hours a day. Good wifi, tv, airconditioning and hot water. The pillows are cool and soft, and the beds are 9.5 out of 10. You get 2 bottles of water free each day when your room is cleaned. Overall I rate this as a 5 star hotel! I plan to stay at the Stay Classic Hotel in my future trips!
