Highly recommended for anyone visiting Seoul!I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The cleanliness was absolutely amazing and exceeded my expectations. A huge bonus was the washing machine, which made it very convenient to wash my clothes during my trip. Additionally, the staff were incredibly helpful and amazing in their own way, always making me feel welcome. I will definitely stay here again the next time I visit Myeongdong!

Pleasant surprise to walk into the room with the size of it, but also a washing machine. Essential as I travel fairly light and it saves the trouble of finding either laundry or the loose change required. Spotless and even a handy balcony for drying the clothes, although you have to improvise with the hangers.
Decent location for things and getting around.

The beds were horrible. All you could feel were the wires with no cushion at all. If you want a good sleep don’t stay here. Also what is the purpose of having a washer when there is no dryer in your room. If you choose to wash in your hotel room you have to bring down your wet clothes to the first floor to use their coined dryer. Who would want to bring their wet laundry down during a vacation trip??? Out of the 4 hotels rooms I stayed in South Korea with washers and dryers, this one by far I will never stay again. Also who now a days still use tiny bar soaps to wash your hands. The other 3 hotels didn’t!!!!!!! I’m so disappointed that I have to give my first review ever!!!! Not one to complain but it was a horrible experience.

The room was clean, fresh, and spacious, which made the stay very comfortable. One small downside was that many of the cabinets were decorative rather than functional, it would have been much more useful if they provided real storage space. Despite the language barrier, the staff were genuinely kind and did their best to assist in every way possible. The location was excellent, with easy walking access to Myeongdong and Namdaemun Market, plus plenty of shops, restaurants, and attractions nearby to explore on foot. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely choose to stay here again.

I would suggest spending money elsewhere. My room had the worst bed I have ever in my life slept on. Bathroom super tiny and then everything is wet for ages. I was going to bed and noted my sock soles had turned black from the floors that I just through them out and the cleaned the floor with one of the very thin towels. No chair on the balcony nor a safe in the room. The washing machine was the saver to this room. I changed to this one and would suggest you dont. This is not a 4 star hotel. I have stayed in cleaner and comfier hostels than this place. Location was decent and staff nice for sure.

The room I booked was spacious, clean and comfortable. Hotel location was very good as it was very near to Namdaemun market and Myeongdong. Reception staff Mr Daniel was courteous and helpful throughout the stay. Instructions for aircon were in Korean, and despite help with Google Translate, I had some difficulty adjusting the temperature. Perhaps there could be English instructions as well. That would be helpful.

This hotel was a pleasant surprise. The location is excellent in that it's extremely close to the Airport bus stop and two metro starions (different lines), as well as untold restaurants, cafes and convenience stores.

Check-in was quick and easy, and my room was perfect for me as a solo traveller. It was spacious, and had everything I could need (including a washing machine). The bed is on the firm side, but I got used to it. I slept well as the room had good insulation and heating/cooling.

All up, excellent value for money and I felt 100% safe at all times, in both the neighbourhood and the hotel. I would highly recommend.

I absolutely loved my stay at The Stay Classic Hotel Myeongdong. The location couldn't be better—it's very close to a bus stop, making airport transfers and getting to places I wanted to go super easy, and you're right in the heart of Myeongdong with countless great food options just steps away.

The staff were a highlight—genuinely helpful, friendly, and welcoming throughout my stay.

The room itself had a lot of space. I loved how comfortable and roomy it felt. Just a heads-up that toothbrushes and razors aren't provided in the room, but they are available to purchase. Whether you're traveling solo or with a companion, the extra space makes a big difference.

If you're looking for a convenient location, friendly service, and a room that doesn't feel cramped, this is a great choice. Would definitely stay here again

Rooms are very clean and quite spacious for Myeongdong and the washing machine comes in very handy (do note there are only two communal dryers on level B1 costing 5000w per use and it can be difficult to find a free one available in the evening).

It's close to Myeondong but you can't cross Namdaemun-ro so it involves using the underground walkway to cross the road to reach Myeongdong - something to note if you are carrying heavy luggage

Another thing to note is that there is no lobby and they can't hold luggage - there are only limited paid lockers in level B1 costing 10000w per 4 hours.

The hotel itself was nice. Every staff there was courteous except (Crystal) the one who was checking me in on the first day. She was working there in the front desk with her negative attitude to service customers. After I checked in, when I got into the room I found out the bed cover and the quilt case were dirty with yellow spots around. I asked Crystal to send a staff to change them, but the staff just changed the quilt case so I had to ask her to change the bed cover again. Luckily, her shift was done. The other gentlemen was on the front desk at that time. He was very nice and professional to handle all my requirements perfectly. I was happy with everything that he had done for me. In general, the hotel and staffs were very nice. I took 1 star off it's because the very bad experience with Crystal at the very first day. That was my first day that I traveled to South Korea. She made me had a bad mood for the whole day.

The entire lobby and fitness room area had awful “air freshener” smell. They should clean the area instead of masking with chemical scent. The fitness room needs better lighting and more equipment.

The sliding door to the balcony in the room didn’t have a lock. So, the room wasn’t secure when I left the hotel.

The room should have a safe box. The front desk had a safe for all the guests. I didn’t want to leave cash or my passport with the staff.

The room was clean, spacious, and well equipped. Having a washing machine and an LG Styler for steaming clothes was a great bonus. The bathroom did not have a wet and dry separation. The location was convenient, although reaching the nearest metro station required carrying luggage up and down an underground tunnel. Note that the hotel does not offer free luggage storage on-site.

Room was okay but had odd features like none of the cabinets opening. The shower gets the toilet soaking wet. The building is a bit run down feeling, elevators take SOOOO long. Would not recommend.

Clean room. Nice staff who manage to help us extend our 2 nights at almost the discounted rate we got online. Fully equipped with washing machine in the room and dryer cannot be found at the gym area with a fee krw 5000 per use and it will fully dry your clothes.

Very clean rooms, great amenities, and wonderful staff. The only small thing is that the twin room has the toilet and shower in the same space. So if you take a shower, the entire bathroom floor is wet when needing to use the toilet. Hope there is something that can help minimize the wet floor.
Other than this odd structural setup, it was a great hotel to stay thats close to restaurants, eateries, and shopping places

This hotel was like a mini apartment - fridge and freezer, clothes washer and steamer cabinet, separate sleeping area, and large balcony! Fabulous! The staff were friendly and helpful, and the area was super convenient to shopping, dining, and transportation. The only downside was the mattress. Asian mattresses are very firm. That is to be expected. This mattress, however, had lumpy cables running horizontally every six inches down the entire mattress, raised above the rest of the surface of the mattress. Sleeping on the floor would have been more comfortable!

The hotel it self was good but please change that front office lady. She is the most unfriendly person I’ve ever met. She was never helpful and has no business in working in hospitality. She was rude and speaking in codes, looking at us like if we had to tell her how to do her job. We will definitely be back in Seoul as my husband and I loved it, but we won’t be staying in this hotel.

I knew it would be a little spartan-like, but everything worked and was clean. My biggest disappointment was being unable to find an English speaking news station (or any English speaking station). But I didn’t Travle to watch tv so all is good.

This is the first in all my staying in hotels that we had to pay for keeping our luggage as we arrived 3 hrs earlier than the check-in time. This is a service which should be available to early arriving guests.
Good location and accessibility to transportation, shops.

Very good convenient and inexpensive place to stay Seoul near the metro and bus system. Right next to the airport bus stop. Only pain is that you need to go up and down the stairs when COMING from the airport, but the bus stop GOING to the airport is right next to the hotel. It has a critical washing machine in the room which means you can do an inexpensive laundry which is hard to find in Seoul. Very recommended to those on a budget.

First is upon our check-in late at night, we were welcomed with a lovely smile by the front desk young lady who I later found out her name, Emiri Saito. We were tired from a long trip from Las Vegas and she really made our initial check-in very smooth and throughout our 7 day at this Hotel, she would always find a way to extend a helping hand whenever we see her. To top it off, on our check out day, she spent time to finding a way to help us with our ride to the airport since our flight got delayed. So glad to meet a young lady with a helping hand like her. Hope we’ll see her again in our next visit.

The front desk staff was friendly and very helpful. I stayed for 7 days, although the cleaning person came in to make sure the room was in order, i used the same bed sheet for that 7 days. Over all it's a good place to stay, i love the balcony view as well.

Good location right next to Namdaemun market, plenty of food options and easy to get on the subway. Nice coffee shops all around and a walkable distance to explore Seoul's central districts without having to jump on the subway. Hotel had in-room washer, which was a nice perk, but dryer is in basement and costs a few coins. Room was not big, but not small either. The layout was a tad odd with some wasted space but all in all, it's a good option to explore Seoul.

The hotel was nice, although being quite small it was quaint. However, I did not care for the bathroom due to the fact that the toilet was in the shower so you had to wait for it to dry before utilizing the bathroom. However, the staff was very friendly and kind and the area had lots of dining options
