Jongno IMT

The problem with this hotel was the late check-in time of 10pm. I booked the hotel while I was in Gyeongbokgung on a very hot day, looking for somewhere close by to stay the night, not too expensive. I forgot to view the check-in time, assuming it was 2pm, nor did I read the review section. Mistake. When I got to the hotel at around 5pm, tired after walking around in the heat, I was told to come back at 10pm. If I’d had known then I wouldn’t have booked this hotel. The room itself was clean enough, adequate facilities. Lots of mirrors on the walls so it probably doubles up as a love hotel. Hotel located down a back alley. Budget price for Seoul but I’ve stayed in much better hotels for a lot less money. Would I stay there again? Simply, ‘No’.

I don’t recommend Night shift worker was so rude and the in-out system of that hotel also not good Rooms also didn’t clean

I loved the location, i can walk to Myeongdong or Insadong, as well as Gyeongbokgung. Cheonggyecheon is nearby too. Basically most of the famous spots in Seoul are pretty accessible from here. Super near Jongno 3-ga station which is on line 1 and line 5. The only thing is you have to walk through some alleys to find the hotel. Solo female travellers might want to avoid going back late (but their check in time is 9pm). And everything is in Korean, fyi. I speak Korean so i had no problems. The room was pretty spacious and the cleanliness was okay for me. Really good price considering it's a private room with a private bathroom. It's really a couple's room, bathroom only has a glass door and nowhere to hang your towels or clothes. And lastly, i think it's actually a love hotel, their tv has a special channel, lol.
