I’ve stayed here the last two times I came to Seoul. It’s a perfect place to stay with kids. They have a pool on the second floor and the rooms are apartment-style with kitchens and spacious rooms. The neighborhood is excellent as well. So close to many cultural landmarks and right next to a vibrant night food scene. The staff are very friendly and help as well. I will stay here every time I come with my family to Seoul.

Having an in-room washer/dryer was a huge plus during our stay. The location was perfect, within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and public transportation.

In the heart of central Seoul, you have amazing access to so many great places to visit. To compliment that, this hotel was so exquisitely nice to stay in. The views are breathtaking of the palaces and other neighborhoods of Jongro (Jongno) and Insadong. The rooms are suburb and the staff help helped us with coordinating logistics practically every day that we were there. Top notch.

Orakai Insadong Suites was an excellent choice for exploring Seoul, and its location is hard to beat. Being within walking distance of Insadong, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, Ikseon-dong and even Myeongdong made sightseeing incredibly convenient. We rarely needed taxis, and it was wonderful being able to simply walk to many of Seoul's most iconic attractions.

Our apartment was spacious, comfortable and very practical for a longer stay. Having a full kitchen, washing machine and plenty of living space made a huge difference.

Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay and would certainly recommend Orakai Insadong Suites to travellers looking for apartment-style accommodation in the heart of Seoul, especially families, longer-stay visitors or anyone wanting the flexibility of self-catering.

The hotel was near the shopping district in Ginza, multiple convenience stores including 2 Don Quijotes. Also within a few minutes away from train stations.
Only thing is, we got a family room which I thought was a 2 bedroom suite, but it was two adjacent rooms; so, may not work for families with younger children. We had a couple teenagers, so wasn’t a problem.

We initially had an issue with our first room due to hot summer days in Seoul. Upon communicating with the hotel staff, they were able to listen to our issues and resolve the issue at hand and gave us another room and other services. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and excellent communications in English. Definite plus is the in-room laundry machine. We didn't get to use the in-room kitchen which was fully stocked. We are on a vacation to a place with ton of eateries. We had no desire to cook our own food. The location of the hotel is excellent, which is close to many attractions in Seoul. Only item of note about the location is that you will need to walk around 7 to 8 minutes for any type of public transportation (e.g, bus or metro). However, it is a walk able location.

Wished they could have supplied us with bottled water and a few cooking staples, such as paper towels, salt & pepper, etc. There were no amenities.
Didn’t realize this is mostly used by business people renting by the month.

Family of four stayed for 3 nights in the 3 bedroom suite. Location is ideal if you want to stay in Insadong/Ikseongdong area. The hotel is on the main Insadong street and Ikseondong is a 5 minutes walk so it is very close to countless shops and restaurants. Myeongdong night market is about a 20 minute walk. Room is spacious and staff are friendly and helpful. It has a washer/dryer ( which takes hours to dry) but still a nice feature to have. But the hotel is not a 4 star hotel as it advertised. It is a three star hotel at best. It is an older building and furniture are older and dirty. Carpet in the bedrooms had numerous stains. Wi-fi is only available for 5 devices which wasn't enough for a family of four with phones and other devices.

The breakfast was a nice start to the day and the pool was a great place to unwind. The neighborhood had a local feel to it and we enjoyed being able to walk to the palaces, Bukchon Hanok Village, and even to the Seoul Tower. We found some great places to eat within a few block walk including a Korean bbq my daughter loved. The best part for her was having souvenir shops nearby and getting hotteok from a street vendor 2 of our nights there. A wonderful place to stay as a home base for our time in Seoul.

Loved that it was an apartment that allowed my family to be in one space. It was clean and staff was very helpful. We also loved the washer/dryer. However, it was minimally stocked with only one pot and pan. There was no cutting board and the knives were not that sharp. If you’re eating out mostly, it’s a perfect space. If you plan on really using the kitchen, then it will be lacking. Overall, it worked for us. We were there in Jan where it’s freezing outside, but the place was so warm and relaxing. We really enjoyed our stay and loved the location. Presently, there is construction starting to happen next door. We barely heard it unless we opened the window, but I would imagine to be more disturbing as the building continues into other phases.

The hotel room was really nice and well accommodated. The location was great as it’s right next to the busy Insadong street and it’s just a 20 min walk to Gyeongbukgung, Changdukgung, Myeongdong, and Bukchon.

The room felt like a real living space rather than a hotel room. My wife and I really appreciated having a washer/dryer unit inside our room (it was not the best washer dryer but it got the job done regardless) and the service staff were really great. Whenever we needed anything, they immediately came to our room and whenever we ordered packages, they put it into our room right as it arrived. The bathroom was especially really nice as it had a separate bathtub and shower. One last thing I would like to mention is that there is so much closet space. I have never seen so much closet space in a hotel room before.

The only reason we’re not giving 5 stars is because the bed and the pillows. The bed was really firm. We like firm beds but this bed so firm that I woke up with sore shoulders almost everyday. The pillows were not great as they provided no support.

Overall, I would recommend this hotel to others as long as you request a softer bed if that’s available. My wife and I very much enjoyed our stay in this hotel.

Great location right near Insadong culture street and walking distance to the palaces and Hanok neighborhoods. We were upgraded to an executive suite on a high up floor. Didn’t hear any noise and hopefully nobody else had to hear our baby cry. Beds were quite firm, but I actually like this. The room was definitely very worn and had some stains and other damage, but still worth it for the spacious room, full size kitchen, in suite laundry and great location. The coffee place downstairs has bagels and other breakfast stuff. The cu across from the back door is much bigger and has more selection than the 7-11 that is out front.
