The only reason I did not give a 5 star was that the room smelled musty when coming back from a long day away, we figured it was because the aircon was on automatic and since we were gone most of the day, it was off. Took us a while to figure out the aircon from being turn off automatically when we were gone and throughout the night, The curtains had a little mold on the bottom, I'm assuming was based on the aircon issue. Other than that, it was pretty clean elsewhere, room size was good for 4 adults, and location was ideal for the elderly in our group. Great location on Myeongdong street and close to the train station.

You really can't be more ideally located to subway, bus stops, and Myeongdong Street. All of the staff were so friendly and helpful. The only minor thing was there is only elevator that goes from 1st/ground floor to the rooms, but I'm sure nothing the staff can do anything about.

We booked an edge room which was very hot during our stay. Contacted the front desk, they sent maintenance but only advised us to keep our drapes closed, which we did, but it did not help. The thermostat range was 23.5-26.5 which was way too warm for me. Contacted front desk again. Not very helpful. Hotel was very close to everything.

This hotel is located in a perfect location. It's right in the heart of Myeongdong and we walked to the night market, shopping, nearby restaurants. There is a subway entrance just outside of the hotel. In addition, it was an easy place to catch ubers to. The rooms are a bit small, but my family of 4 was able to fit okay in the \"family room\".

We love Stanford Hotel Myeongdong! The location is perfect, so close to shops, the station, and the lively Myeongdong night markets. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, though they don’t have a dedicated family room, so we booked two rooms for our family of five. Everything was easy and convenient, and we would definitely stay here again!

Overall - I would stay again if other hotels around the area is booked. Did not get any wow moment that made us want to come back.
Checkin - fast and easy, but staff did not provide any information about the hotel. Stayed for 3 nights and ended up having to find out info ourselves. Windows were dirty. Not much view to enjoy.
Room - we had a double bed on 17 floor. Very small, only shower. Room felt very stuffy and room temp can’t be controlled. Heat still came on even after turning off.
Cleaning - cleaning lady on the 2 day and 3rd was good. The first day, forgot the line our garbage bins and we didn’t get bottle waters.

We had a fantastic and comfortable stay at Stanford Hotel Myeongdong. As a family with kids, our priority is accessibility to food. We had breakfast at the lobby, but there is also a convenience store/stand that had snacks, drinks - great for late night munchies. Right outside the hotel, LOTS of places to eat, and Myeongdong street is just steps away. Each floor had a hot/cold water dispenser and self-serve laundry is also available. Rooms were very clean and spacious. Our room was tidied up every day, with fresh towels and replenished bottles of water. Definitely would recommend to anyone going for the first time, especially with family.

Breakfast items were pretty much the same everyday and we spent 8 days eating breakfast. The food quality was average. What I disliked most about my room is the lack of hot water which we didn’t have for a few hours one night and the poor water pressure which was every night. Another disappointment is the front desk denying my request for some plates and silverware so I can put some food to reheat at the 9th floor microwave; they told me no plates and sent me to their manager who was nice enough to let us have some plates at the restaurant. Overall, the best aspect to this hotel is the location.

The location is perfect—close to restaurants, the subway, and shopping areas—but the room is a bit too small for two queen beds. The bathroom also smelled like urine when we arrived, which was really unpleasant. I’ve never had any issues with skin irritation before, but the bedsheets made me itch, and the same happened to my children.

Also the bathrooms and overall room was very spacious. Also loved there was a bathtub to give the baby a bath. We had breakfast each morning in the cafe and it was delicious. Lots of variety so everyone was happy. Also the staff overall was very nice but especially in the cafe my only feedback is to have bigger napkins in the cafe and maybe no motion dector light when you enter the room. .

I booked my stay about a year in advance and only booked this hotel due to one particular room that was fairly large with a wrap-around window. When I was ready to check in, I located my room, opened the door, and I was standing in a small, rundown standard room, not the room I had booked. I returned to the reception desk and told the staff I’d been given the wrong room. I also pulled up my reservation and confirmed the room I’d booked. To my shock, instead of apologizing and immediately correcting their error, the staff told me I’d been given the correct room, then changed the story and said the room I booked was not available, and then began offering me an equivalent room with the caveat that I would have to pay more. When I insisted on a refund, suddenly, the room I’d booked was available. The staff at this hotel gaslit, lied, and never apologized. Although I have no proof that their behavior was discriminatory, there’s always that possibility. I will never give this hotel my business in the future. I moved to the Ryse Autograph Collection after my stay at this hotel, and the experience was like night and day — I was warmly welcomed, provided with above and beyond service, and treated with the utmost respect.

Everything you need is just below the hotel and within walking distance. The only downside is the traffic sound from the road. We were on the 11th floor and could hear it quite clearly, so if you are a light sleeper this might not be a good option.
