The hotel was in a great location and the staff were friendly and attentive. The only down side was certain aspects of the room. We had one of the penthouse suites which the outside had a jet bath that did not work, was full of dead bugs and the flow of the tap meant it would take hours to fill if we used it. The plants were practically dead with dead leaves and cobwebs and several of the slabs on the raised patio were not stable and felt like they were going to drop though. This meant we did not use the outside at all, which was one of the main things that attracted us to the room.

The room itself was smaller than expected but still spacious the bed was comfy and it had a deep spa bath inside that was great after a long day of walking. It was weird that they had see though glass which meant you can see inside the bathroom from the outside and pretty much see whoever was on the toilet from the room, unsure if this is a culture thing and just us being uncomfortable watching the other whilst on the loo. We just made sure we stayed to the side of the room that can’t see in.

The beds were comfy with 2 large pillows each, which was great and the air con was a life saver when it got humid.

We would come again as competitively priced but would just opt for a standard room rather than a suite. As mentioned it was just a shame about the outside patio / jet bath.

Room was very clean and housekeeping was very good. The hotel was also very conveniently located and it was easy to get to the metro as well as to experience the nightlife, while still being on a quiet street. Hotel had limited amenities, but that wasn't a big deal for us, as we went out for the entire day. Only big thing that bothered us was that our shower had no door, so the bathroom would get very messy. Overall, would definitely recommend giving 9 Brick Hotel a try!

The hotel is very well located close to the bars and restaurants in and around Hongdae Shopping Street. It is a short walk from Hongik University station (metro line 2 and airport all-stop train) and from Sangsu station (metro line 6). three different metro lines. The staff were welcoming, the room and ensuite bathroom were clean, the bed was comfortable and the sound proofing was good.

I did not feel welcomed here by staff.
My last night in Seoul, upon check in I was given room that smelled like cigarettes. I asked to change and the front desk said they are non smoking and made me feel like I was asking a lot to change rooms. I told them someone had smoked in there and you can smell it. They did give me a different room but it felt reluctant.

As my last night in Seoul, I thought it would be nice to have a glass of wine and some dessert. I went to the second floor to the restaurant and was not greeted. There were two females and one male staff member there that just looked at me like what was I doing there. Then finally the male asked if I had a reservation. He said I could sit down but wasn’t friendly. I said I would just have a glass of wine and some dessert. He told me I could not sit down because I have to order food. I said dessert can be food and he said no. It felt very dismissive for someone who is a hotel guest.

When I checked out in the morning, I wanted to go across the alley street to get coffee before I had to jump on the subway with all my luggage. I asked to leave my luggage and the front desk clerk was reluctant again. He asked me for how long like it was such a problem. Seriously ruining an opportunity to enjoy my last morning before heading to the airport.

I stayed at the Ryse last week. They were so accommodating I regretted not spending the extra $50 to stay there my last night.

Pros: Cleanliness, staff, location, room safebox, fridge, bedding, wi-fi.
Neutral: Breakfast
Cons: There is, literally, no place to store your belongings in the room. No closets, no dressers. There isn't even one of those folding stands to put your luggage on. You will be living out of your suitcase. This was not only a feature of my room, which I believe was the least expensive in the hotel, but the more expensive rooms as well. This makes no sense (unless it is true of all hotels in Seoul?). I found this very inconvenient as it compromised the comfort of the room.

9 Brick Hotel was located in a convenient area in Hongdae, not too far from the subway (approximately a 5-10 minute walk) or the closest airport limo stop, and was close to a subway entrance with an elevator, which was perfect for taking the AREX back to the airport. There was also lots of restaurants and convenience stores nearby too, which was great for late night eats and solo dining. The room itself was perfect for one person - plenty of space, clean and had everything one would need. The bathroom was also really nice and spacious with a tub, which isn't commonly found in hotels, but be warned - it is a bit high to step in and out and since there is no shower curtain, it can lead to a bit of a mess in the bathroom after using it. The staff were always welcoming and helpful too, and allowed me to check in early. The area itself was quiet but also had plenty of people around so I felt safe when walking around at night. Overall, a great hotel and I would recommend for solo travellers.

We also appreciated the 12 o'clock check out, that gave us time to do some things before flying back to Canada. Breakfast was nice. Only comment would be that they could up their coffee game. Thankfully there are no shortages of great coffee places nearby.

After a 26-day budget trip through South Korea, I decided my final stay would be a high-end experience—four nights in Hongdae. Choosing the 9 Brick Hotel was the best decision I made. The hotel is exactly my style: industrial elegance at its finest.

The professional staff goes above and beyond. Our room was the Deluxe model, and all I can say is WOW! The bed, pillows, and comforter felt like sleeping on a cloud. After so many days of traveling, I finally had a solid, quiet rest. The room was spotless—so clean that even the smell felt fresh, if that makes sense.

The shower had excellent pressure and plenty of space, and the furniture and décor were beautifully selected and perfectly balanced. Everything you could possibly need in a hotel was provided.

The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the Hongdae shopping area—another WOW! Everything is within walking distance. Breakfast was delicious and very affordable, and the dining area felt gorgeous and romantic.

A wonderful stay overall, and I highly recommend it.
By the way… check-out is at 12 noon. Very nice!

Hotel location is good, there is an Emart beside, gs25 a few steps away, and a supermarket just opposite the hotel. And short walking distance to reach Hongdae happening area as well as the metro station. Room size is ok for 2 pax and luggage can both open by some space adjustment. The only drawback of the room is the bathroom, it only came with a bathtub and you need to climb into the bathtub for a shower. And there is no shower curtain to block the water splashing out, whole bathroom will become wet area after a shower and this is very unsafe for old folks to climb in/out the bathtub in wet condition! Extra care has to be taken for shower! Other than that, the reception barely give us any greeting day in day out except for the day check in/out they “have the duty” to talk to us.. anyway, we are fine with that coz all we want is a good stay! Overall its good stay.

For a solo person, I thought the room was spacious. I already knew what the room looked like but for people coming with friends, the bath is out in the open and the door to the wash closet and shower are a little opaque. It's a very classy, gentleman's club kind of style of room. I like that. You can have it cleaned everyday if you want. Even when I didn't have the door marker out, I was still asked if I wanted it cleaned. The front staff are generally okay if you have questions. They weren't overly friendly or anything. The one thing that did really bother me is the cafe on the second floor. I went there one night and it was 8:00 p.m. and there was only one table of people. It was just me and I was told I couldn't eat there because I needed a reservation. Like none of this had been told to me when I checked in and I thought it was really strange to even have a cafe and a hotel if you can't access it as a guest. Plus the breakfast is 15,000 won which is kind of expensive. So that was a real turn off and I even found it kind of rude and confusing. It's close to busses, but I only took the Metro which is maybe a 5-minute walk. You're really close to the open market which has food and shopping and clubs or bars and restaurants. One tip, if you need to take out more than 100,000 won you need to go to the bank ATMs. You're not going to get that much out of the convenience store ATMs or they might not work at all. I had to learn that on my own. Area was safe but so is most of Korea

Overall the stay was good. I would consider if we are to stay in Hong Dae again for our next trip. I think there should be a full-sized mirror in the room. Also, our room has a leakage near the washing basin but it was not too bad so we only informed the team but did not request for the change in room as we had already unpacked everything. It could be a bit loud on the weekend from car noise, but weekday was ok. Great walkable distance from Hongik University Station with elevator, 2 x Olive Young and Musinsa.

The hotel was conveniently located within short walking distance from the bus stop. It is right by many delicious restaurants and coffee shops. Staff was friendly and check in was very simple and easy. The room was quite large. There was a little dust on the window blinds but it was manageable. The shower was nice and hot. The bath was deep but not long enough for those who are 175cm or taller.

The air con is right above the bath so make sure to push up the vent so it does not give you a cold during your bath. Bath takes about 25 minutes to fill up just using hot water, if both faucets then maybe 18 mins.

It is a good time for solo or couples. The hotel was nice and quite, you cannot hear the nightlife which is nice.

We stayed 2 nights which was enough to do a lot of shopping and eating. I would recommend for short stay. Longer stay, you will need to buy amenities kit which is for sale in lobby front desk.
