Hostel Cleo Seoul Hongdae Reviews

The place is easy to find, clean, and super convenient. It’s safe too, so you can come to the concert alone without any worries.

The room was small but well-equipped, and the overall environment was clean and comfortable. Breakfast options were limited, but the dining area was cozy and elegant. The hotel is conveniently located near Hongdae Station, making transportation very easy.

I’ve met 2 employees there, both very well managed, good command of English and considerate. I felt welcome the moment I step into the hostel. The bed is soft and comfy. Secure, as they use passcode instead keycard. Nice supply of juice and coffee 24/7 at the pantry. Location is near to hongink station and the happening red-walk. Recommended!

Room was ok, but slightly small. Location requires a walk from the station. Breakfast in the morning was decent and norma

Good location and will come back again.

The room is very small, suitable for top-opening luggage. The B1 24-hour dining and lounge area is fine when nobody's there, but when it gets crowded, it really depends on how thick-skinned people are. The location is quite good, quiet yet close to all the action, with lots of food options nearby.

Location is quite good. Do note that the room is really small. Shower head water is from the Basin water tap, creative.

Location is great just only 300 metre walking to Hongdae area and MRT station ext3. So convenience, especially go back &forth to the airport. Highly recommended. The room is good except so small size of towels and no space for shower area, quite difficult for us. Breakfast is not variety, only bread and snack.

All good! Love the location and services; however, the bathroom does not separate the dry and wet zones. It is not a big deal because the floor dries quickly.

Nice location.

The hotel is about an 8-minute walk from the subway station, but it's still a bit far from the main Hongdae street, maybe over 1km away. The room can fit two 24-inch suitcases, but once opened, there's no space left. The room is quite clean, and mineral water and breakfast are provided. There's also a laundry room downstairs. Overall, it offers great value for money. The only significant drawback is the complete lack of soundproofing; it feels like sleeping right next to a busy road.

"Just wrapped up a week-long stay here and I’m honestly impressed. The vibe is great, though I’d recommend it primarily for solo travelers. If you’re coming as a duo with heavy luggage, the room might feel a little cozy! The best part? It’s super peaceful and away from the hustle, but only a short (＜10 mins) walk to the station—and yes, there’s a direct line to the airport which is a lifesaver. You’ll find plenty of cute cafes and eateries nearby, just a heads-up that the neighborhood starts to wake up around 10 AM. Definitely a solid choice for your next trip!"

Hotel is not Good and Clean Staff is very Friendly hope Come again next time when I am Coming Seoul

The location is fantastic, only a 7-10 minute walk from Hongdae Station, which made exploring super convenient. The room itself was a bit compact, and we could just about manage to open our luggage. However, despite the size, our overall stay was quite pleasant.
