Overall we had a great time. Great location, close to everything. The rooms were fairly clean. The only complaint was the stained floors. We liked that it was near everything but also along the outskirt of Myeongdong strip, still easy access for taxi’s. The staff were overall very helpful and friendly. As it was still in the Myeongdong strip, it was not noisy at all from the rooms. We enjoyed our stay and would stay there again!

Fabulous hotel

Hotel was very nice and clean. Myeongdong is literally outside of the hotel and a convenient store. Made it for us as a family of 4 to get water and milk and snacks. The hotel staff were all smiling and greeting us, so we felt very welcomed. Thank you so much for our 9 night stay! It was memorable!

The Royal is in a fantastic position in the the thick of all the action in Myeongdong. It is in a quiet position just above the street action. It is handy to public transportation and many high end shops. Very accessible to many of the cities highlights. Staff were a delight. Restaurant and bars have great views.
