Hotel Biz Jongno Insadong

Nice hotel located near Jongno3 subway station exit 5. Subway exit signs are hard to follow but try to get to exit 5. Walk to Samil-daero 26 - gil and turn right. You will see hotel sign. We booked a Family Suite with 2 queen beds for 4 adults. We had to take the elevator to floor 6 and walk half a floor down to get to our room. Rooms was OK with a large divider between the beds. Room had a whirlpool hot tub we never used. Some of the cellphone chargers did not work. Coffee in the lobby was free. People at the front desk are very helpful.

The hotel owner made my stay here very pleasant with his helpful and friendly nature, this hotel is full of amazing surprises and the owner is a part of that 😎 His knowledge of South Korea and about the world in general was fantastic, and it helps that he speaks English fluently, as well as being multi lingual. I was also given some tasty lemon tea after I returned from my DMZ tour! I was given a welcome coffee when I checked in, and my room was nice sized with high quality toiletries provided in the bathroom Owner the bedroom itself! Shower gel, shampoo etc plus hair spray, face tonic and face cream! You have separate sandals provided for the bedroom and bathroom. You also have a kettle, mineral water bottles and coffee/tea sachets in the room, and have a free filtered coffee machine downstairs to use for free. The super massive flatscreen tv had a few English movie channels and a sports channel in English so was good having that. A remote control helps to turn off the lights as well as the tv. The bed is temperature controlled and omg, warms you up nicely plus gives a massage feel, but don’t use it past level 3, as it goes to level 8 🙈 no wardrobes but you have a clothes/coat stand to use. You also have a mini fridge in the room. The hotel is in the perfect location, central to everything and has plenty of restaurants, bars, shops and 7elevens near it to keep you happy! I managed to see quite a lot in my time in Seoul, including the DMZ and other cultural sites etc. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel and would defo stay here again when I visit with friends next time 😊

This is a small and old budget hotel at an excellent but inconspicuous location. The standard twin room is a bit cramped. Heating and hot water worked well. Front desk very helpful. No breakfast available.
