Hotels near Nowon-Gu, Seoul

"Two days of stay is complete. It's my first use. I decided suddenly. As a result, I'm very satisfied. I'm willing to visit again. 1. Facilities are good. Very good to be separated from the bathroom and toilet. There's an extra shower in the bathroom and a bathtub. The washbasin is outside so it's good to wash it quickly in the morning. There's a microwave, paper cup, chopsticks, coffee mixes, little paper spoons in the hallway. There's an extra coffee machine on the first floor. 2.방음 Sound insulation is not very good. But it's okay if you're not sensitive to noise. 3. Cleanliness Cleanliness was fine for me, which was meticulous. It was clean. 4. Friendly Middle-aged women are friendly and nice. However, the staff who are estimated to be men in their 30s and 40s are friendly and quick to work, but I felt unpleasant in their tone and attitude. When the words got a little longer, I felt too annoying and wanted to cut them off quickly. It would be nice to explain the hotel rules more kindly to leave the key when you go out. Although it's very kind, it's very inconvenient because the guests should notice it and feel aggressive."

"Friendly, smell of cigarettes in the entrance entrance and bathroom ㅠㅠ"

"This was my first time visiting South Korea. The hotel is located in northern Seoul, close to a subway transfer station. It's fairly convenient to get to Seoul Station and Dongdaemun, though the commute takes a bit, around 30 minutes. **Amenities**: For this price point, providing disposable toiletries is a nice touch. **Location**: There are plenty of dining options nearby. **Cleanliness**: It was somewhat average, but the room was cleaned daily. **Service**: The cleaning staff was very polite and would proactively greet guests. The front desk also allowed me (as a minor) to check in. For a city like Seoul, where accommodation prices can be high, this hotel offers good value. A quick note: The subway runs right outside the window, so be aware there might be some noise issues. However, I personally wasn't woken up by the trains."

"I recently stayed at IF Hotel Seoul Nowon over the weekend, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations for the price. The location is a big win. Nowon is a lively area, but what I really like is that it’s not overly crowded or packed with tourists. It feels more local, more chill, and less chaotic compared to the usual hotspots like Myeongdong or Hongdae. You still get that “happening” vibe, just without the stress. Getting around is easy too. The hotel is close to public transport, and you’ve got CU and GS25 literally right next door. Super convenient, especially for late-night snacks or quick essentials. The room itself was spacious and comfortable. Basic amenities like TV and a fridge are provided, but the standout feature for me was the LG Styler TROMM Styler inside the room. This isn’t your typical laundry setup. It’s a proper clothing care system. You can refresh your clothes, remove odors, reduce wrinkles, and basically “steam-clean” your outfits without needing to do a full wash. For travelers, especially if you’re moving around a lot or packing light, this is honestly a game changer. It’s one of those small luxuries you don’t expect at this price point. One thing to note: the hotel seems to cater more towards younger guests, and the check-in timing is a bit unconventional; typically after 10 PM. I didn’t realize this and showed up at 11 AM thinking it was a typo. But to be fair, the staff handled it well. I paid an additional 50,000 KRW for early check-in, and the process was quick and hassle-free. Overall, if you’re looking for an affordable, comfortable stay in Seoul that’s in a local, less touristy area, with a surprisingly premium touch like the LG Styler, this place is definitely worth considering. Just make sure you’re aware of the check-in timing so you can plan properly."

"This was a hotel that a Spaniard visiting Korea chose after much deliberation. Although there were many budget-friendly motels nearby, I selected the hotel-class Royal Suite, hoping for a more comfortable and cozy stay. It is true that my expectations were high, as the price of around 170,000 won was not insignificant. However, after actually staying there, I was generally quite disappointed. The first thing that stood out was the cleanliness. There was hair left in the bathtub, and the bed sheets had red stains that appeared to have not been properly washed, which was very unpleasant. Additionally, the smell of cigarette smoke lingered in the room, making it difficult to consider it a pleasant environment. This was particularly bothersome for a non-smoker. In terms of facilities, the toilet's water pressure was weak, so it was inconvenient to have to flush multiple times because it did not clean properly in one go. With the wide variety of accommodations available these days, one could have stayed comfortably for under 100,000 won; paying 170,000 won only resulted in a somewhat disappointing experience as my satisfaction fell short of my expectations."

"Come to see the concert, the facilities are also good, the house is very complete, even the curling bar is also very comfortable, the massage chair is very comfortable, the location is very close to the subway station, the transportation is convenient, there are many restaurants around, very convenient."

"This hotel is located in Seoul's Gangbuk area, which isn't as central as Gangnam, Myeongdong, or Hongdae, but it's reflected in the more affordable price. It's incredibly convenient, just a 2-minute walk from Subway Line 4 and the 6102 airport bus stop. Although the hotel is tucked away in an alley, it's very close to the main street. Right outside, you'll find a 'National Coffee' shop, a 7-Eleven just a few steps away, and a GS25 further down. Olive Young, Daiso, and McDonald's are also within easy walking distance. The alley across the street is full of eateries, and there's a market nearby too. You can reach the main shopping districts within half an hour by subway. The hotel might be small, but they provide a variety of skincare samples daily, and there's even a bathtub, which is a great touch. I felt perfectly comfortable staying alone. The front desk staff were very friendly; I forgot to bring the correct travel adapter, and the young man at the front desk was able to provide one. The only downside is that the electrical outlets in the room are quite finicky, requiring me to find a specific spot each time I charged something. I hope they can improve this!"

"The neatness of the new building and the kindness of the staff of the express hotel class meet, and I would like to be the first place among the accommodations I visited this year ❤️"

"I'm doing well with my friends from abroad."

"It was really clean, which I loved, and it was great that they cleaned the room daily upon request when we went out. The view was also lovely. However, adjusting the air conditioning was a bit tricky, so I had to call the front desk to sort it out. The TV kept freezing, probably due to a poor internet connection. Everything else was great though!"
