LOVED this hotel! An easy Uber drive from the airport (~$60USD). Location was perfect: walk to convenience stores, breakfast options, Michelin restaurants, night market and more! Car cafe across the street. Best Korean BBQ nearby. Hotel extremely clean, staff helpful, ice machine/laundry. Nice room, nice amenities. Rooftop garden doesn’t really have a view - to reason to hang out there. Worth the price. Great value!

Everything about this hotel is excellent except amenity provision. The front desk is manned by a staff at any one time that limits the level of assistance he could give to patrons, for instance when the front entrance door could not open during rainy day, but I must say they had tried their best. The front desk staff is friendly and could speak English reasonably well.

But I am surprised that in its sustainability effort, the hotel did not provide basic amenities like tooth brush, tooth paste and razor. Patrons have to buy them from nearby convenient stores which ironically, created some inconveniences.

Overall, a good hotel with a good location. Would recommend this hotel to friends coming to Korea.

The staff was pleasant, and polite, they were always greeting us upon seeing us. Location was ideal for us too - 5 mins walk to train station. Plenty of food choices and shops. However, the room (I booked) was rather small - space was very tight. There was no way for my friend and I to open our luggage (two medium sized) fully to pack and unpack our stuffs. The space of the bathroom was also quite compact. My elbow always hit the sink when i was sitting on the toilet bowl.

If shopping is the intent, this hotel is a good choice for being walkable and proximity to misc stores and markets. Housekeeping kept the room clean and stocked. Front desk staff was inconsistent; check in staff was not so friendly and barely said hello each time we walked in. Othertimes, they were friendly enough. Upon check out, the late crew was more amiable and helpful.

Best location for a trip

We had a lovely stay at The Grand Hotel Myeongdong. We were greeted by W.S. Jung and cannot praise him enough - throughout our stay, he always greeted us when leaving and coming in the hotel, offered to help us with bookings and information needed. Thank you Mr Jung!
The room was well maintained and spotless clean. The service was done daily and even on the day when we decided to rest and put the room on DND, the cleaning ladies left a bag with fresh towels and water bottles. The only criticism I have for the room would be that the door had quite a gap between it and the floor, which made noise from the corridor to be quite uncomfortable.
Comfortable bed, crisp clean linen, hot water, amenities replenished. Cannot fault the service at all.

I love the location it was in! Literally around the corner from the Main Street and the train station! Down the block from all the stores and restaurants! So convienant! The staff was so attentive through email to reach out to and in person! Language barrier was no problem! Only wish their tv was more advance like US hotels where it’s connected to wifi and have applications like Netflix. There was only 2 Korean channels to choose from. So I had to constantly connect to my phone to watch a show.

We had an excellent stay in this Central Myeongdong Hotel which is actually inside the walkable markets. The description is written as 2 minutes, but it is actually in the Market area.

The value is excellent and the staff are all exceptional including Mr Z Kim who made our stay quite memorable. Room was spacious for the four of us, modern and extremely clean.

You will not be disappointed with a reservation at this Hotel, as evidenced by many other positive reviews. 5 Stars.

Location is literally at the heart of Myeongdong, where the night market/street food area is a few steps away. Close to a bunch of halal restaurant options, and of course VERY near to some of the sought after brands for shopping.

VERY close to Myeongdong train station, which we used heavily. The staff were extremely nice and helpful, the amenities provided were sufficient as well.

The location of the hotel is in Myeongdong which is was the best part of staying there. Although the hotel is named the Grand Hotel, I would say that the rooms are not very grand at all. There were many things wrong with it. First, and most importantly, they did not have the AC on, even though that feature is listed on Expedia's website as an amenity. Upon check in, we were told that they do not turn the AC on until summer (they said this was normal for hotels during this season). Well, that was news to us. They told us to open the windows (which let all the outside traffic noise in) .One of us has asthma and a hot room is not very conducive to that condition. We were given a fan instead, which helped a little, but was not what we expected when we booked. The lights are dim and yellow. The shower head sprayed everywhere else except on you because the holes on the spray were plugged from minerals. The cabinet door to the small fridge was broken. If it were not for the convenient location to the shopping at Myeongdong, I would not recommend staying here. There are plenty of other choices in the area. We met others that stayed at nearby hotels and their AC worked just fine (had nothing to do with the season).

Place was clean and in a very good location (close to myeongdong station 9 which seems to be the pickup point for alot of tours). Staff were really nice! I had troubles booking transport between busan -> seoul and they were happy to help out.

The Grand Hotel is in one of the best locations in Myeong-Dong. It’s a nice beautiful accommodation. Everything at your doorstep. Public Transport is walking distance. Staff were very helpful, friendly and well organised.
Our hotel room was clean (I didn’t see a speck of mold in the bathroom).
I highly recommend this hotel.

I stayed at the hotel for one night. The location was very convenient, with many dining options and shopping available. The room was spacious; however, the interior was outdated, and there was a strong smell when I entered the room.

GREAT location. The rooms are a little bit small but I think everything in Korea is a little small. Very clean and had all the amenities. Comfortable beds and nice bathroom. Would 10/10 stay here again.

The hotel is located at the end of Myeongdong. It is quiet, run down and quite noisy during the mid night whereby can hear the people talking around and rubbish truck. The restaurant opposite the hotel is open till late mid-nite, kind of noisy and the spot light directly shine in the hotel room. I will not recommend this hotel. There are many other hotel surrounded the MD street.

We used to stay there pre-Covid and decided to book back here for its convenient location and quiet end of Myeongdong.

Very sad to see that they no longer serve breakfast and beverage like they used to. Reception is also often only 1 staff manning.

I chose the hotel due to its location and proximity to public transportation and sites of interest. That is exactly what I got. The room on arrival was clean and provided all basic essentials. Lobby staff were friendly and helpful. Minor complaint, the pressure of the shower was slow flowing and in some areas of the hotel there is a smell that smells like bad sewage issues. This might well be the case as we were advised not to throw toilet paper into the toilet bowl and into the bin provided.

The hotel is so convientent right next to the main myeongdong shopping streets but it is located just off the busy area so it it not noisy. 1 min walk from the myeongdong station. The staff was very nice and helpful and can talk english. Room was quite small but was ok to fit 1 luggage bag. Breakfast was average but there is a convience store right out the front of the hotel. Hotel and room was very clean.
Would recommend this hotel to others.

Hotel location is superb as shopping is just outside of this hotel. Pity on the toilet as its quite small. It would be good if their breakfast selection could change every few days. We stayed for about 5 nights & the breakfast was always the same. Will definitely stay at this hotel again.

excellent location, but that's about it.

The best thing about the hotel is the excellent location. It's just off the busiest part of MYD, so it's nice. Felt safe walking back to hotel. There's a convenient store right across.

The service was good at the checkout and normal daily greetings but there was one occasion where the frontdesk was quite rude. We were asking for advice to go to the airport for the next day. She was unfriendly and unwilling to talk to us and just handed us a guide to read instead. Oh well, that was pretty common throughout the city anyways.

The room cleaning service was ok but not as thorough. Air-con is not a consistent wind, the air will turn off and on and off and on, so you will feel either cold or hot, nothing in between.
