[2025 Seoul Stay] Travel Guide for Sollago Myeongdong Hotel & Residence (Updated May)

The hotel opened in October 2023 and is located near Chungmuro Subway Station in downtown Seoul, about a 10-minute walk to Myeongdong Shopping Street. There are two 24-hour convenience stores and a coffee shop☕️ on the first floor of the hotel. Next to the hotel, there are also BBQ restaurants, fried chicken shops, and Korean knife-cut noodle shops, making it very convenient. The hotel staff are very friendly, and there is a self-check-in machine and a currency exchange machine. They can communicate in English. However, the luggage storage service is charged at 1,000 KRW per hour. I booked a family room, which was clean and tidy with full amenities, including a microwave, washing machine, refrigerator, etc. The soundproofing is also very good, and it is very quiet at night. The room door is accessed by entering a password. Highly recommended for families and travelers with children! 📍 Solago Myeongdong Hotel & Apartment Price: $480/night Address: 9, Chungmu-ro 2-gil, Jung-gu, 04556 Seoul Transportation: Exit 7 of Chungmuro Subway Station, Line 4, Seoul

Ladies! I didn't expect to find the hotel of my life in Seoul! √Next to Itaewon √Near the subway station √Infinity pool √Fitness center √Free airport transfer. I envy Korean women every day! 1️⃣I'm really moved by the location of this hotel! It's only 700 meters from Itaewon and is completely surrounded by attractions. It's about 1 kilometer from N Seoul Tower and Myeongdong. If you don't want to walk, you can take the subway. The nearest subway station is only 100 meters from the hotel. This is too good to be true! 2️⃣The view from the room is really great I love the large floor-to-ceiling windows. Half of the hotel overlooks the mountain view and the other half overlooks the river view. Anyway, ladies, you must choose a high floor! I chose a mountain view room this time. During the day, I can see green everywhere. At night, I can see the night view of the whole Seoul. It's really beautiful! 3️⃣The hotel breakfast is really worth the price! I understand that you get up early for breakfast. The hotel can deliver meals to the room. The breakfast is super rich. But the most important thing is to sit in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, eat and take photos! The photos are really great! 4️⃣I really love the infinity pool in the hotel The hotel has two large infinity pools next to the spa area. Although it's not free, it's very comfortable!

🗺️🗺️【Travel Itinerary】 Day 1: Walking around Myeongdong area Day 2: Changdeokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, Gwangjang Market, Korean sauna Day 3: Buying souvenirs, returning home 📍📍【Recommended spots】 Myeongdong area: Myeongdong live ammunition shooting range It's in the tourist area right next to Myeongdong Station, so you can go there while you're out and about. There were also couples there. 🥘🥘 【Recommended food】 Gwangjang Market: Twist Donuts There's a store at the entrance to the market, and there was a line, but the turnover is good so you can pick it up right away. There's no kiosk, so you can buy it as long as you're in line. Water parsley gomtang soup (Nungdongminari) There was also a line for the gomtang, but the turnover is good so I was able to enter the store relatively quickly. You can enter the store without using the kiosk as long as you're in line. I ordered water parsley gomtang soup. Yukhoe bibimbap seems to be popular as well. Bibimbap (Mokmisanbang): You can use the kiosk inside. When I came, there was a sign hanging on the kiosk and it was not available. After a while, a staff member came and it was available. If you encounter the same situation, I recommend waiting in line without rushing. I recommend the Yukhoe Bibimbap. 🏠🏠 [Recommended Hotel] Sorago Myeongdong Hotel Residence Access to the station⭕️ It's just one stop away from Myeongdong Station in the tourist area, so I think it's a good place for your first trip to Korea. The convenience store on the first floor also sells the yogurt that you eat with chocolate and cookies, and I ate it every day. 📣📣 [Other points] Incheon Airport → Seoul Station There are airport railroads, express buses, and taxis to get to Seoul Station, but the train is recommended as it takes about 40 minutes directly. You can make reservations online, so it's a good idea to make reservations about 40-50 minutes after your flight's arrival time. (I arrived on the second day of Golden Week) Transportation within the city I recommend the Climate Card, which allows unlimited use of subways and buses within Seoul. Apparently you can buy one at Seoul Station, but I couldn't because of the underground labyrinth. I ended up buying one at a 7-Eleven near Seoul Station. It's quicker to go above ground and find a convenience store than to explore the labyrinth. You can charge the card at the station. Even if it expires, you can recharge it and reuse the card, so it's a good idea to keep it after your trip.

The hotel is about a 5-minute walk from Chungmuro ​​Station. There is a convenience store and cafe on the lobby floor, and a wowpass machine is also installed, which was very convenient! When I checked in and out, I spoke to the hotel staff, who were very kind and handsome ^_^ The rooms were also very clean, and the best thing about it is that each room has a kitchen and microwave ✨ The hotel view was a bit iffy, but the windows were large and there was a desk and chair, so it was nice to eat in the room! Overall, the price was cheap and it was very good. However, it is a little far from Myeongdong 🤏 #Overseas hotel reviews #Sorago Myeongdong Hotel #Traveling alone in Korea #Trip to Korea

The last afternoon of the journey We made a pilgrimage to a restaurant near Incheon Forest Outings really did not disappoint. As soon as you enter the door, you feel like you have arrived at a paradise A green forest with gorgeous decorations The three-story building has a wide view and you can see the beautiful scenery wherever you sit A variety of soft and hard seats, sofas, and reclining chairs for you to choose from Flowers that open and close and butterflies that spread their wings An overly exaggerated beauty I love it so much! Simply in love 💕 Especially the desserts and bread are very delicious Fresh cream is sweet but not greasy The overall dining experience is great with a cup of latte art No matter which floor you walk around the restaurant, it looks like a work of art. We sat on the recliners and listened to music I stayed in the restaurant for two hours before leaving reluctantly. Ranked as the most popular restaurant in this Seoul trip❤️

I stayed at Sorago Myeongdong Residence for two nights in February. Overall, I have some doubts about whether it's a 4-star hotel, but it was clean and not uncomfortable. I didn't know how to use the remote control for the TV, so I didn't use it. There is a shower without a bathtub, but it is separate from the toilet, so I think you can use it without any problems. The room is heated by the ondol, so I don't have to turn on the air conditioner and sleep with the window open even though the outside temperature was below -8℃. So if you are sensitive to the cold, you don't have to worry. It's about a 5-minute walk from Chungmuro ​​Station and about 10 minutes walk from Myeongdong. It's along a major road, so you can get around safely even late at night by taking a taxi.

Although it is called Myeongdong, the nearest station is the neighboring Chungmuro ​​station. The so-called Myeongdong shopping district is less than 10 minutes on foot along the main street, so it is not too burdensome. Even if you want to go for a late-night stroll in Dongdaemun, it is about 6,000 to 8,000 won by taxi, so it is an easy location to get around on public roads. The rooms are passable, neither too large nor too small, and are clean, so you can feel at ease. I recommend it as it is an area where you can get around without getting lost, even for first-timers in Seoul.

#February Travel Support Event It's Chungmuro ​​Alley! This is the alley scenery you can see if you stay at Sollago Hotel.

It's about a 2-minute walk from Chungmuro ​​Station in Seoul, so visit it from Seoul!

Stayed in February 2024 A residence hotel located on a street full of restaurants in Chungmuro. There is no card key like in a hotel, and you enter the room with a PIN code. You will receive your room number and PIN code by email on the day of your stay, so you will check in by yourself. The room had a large refrigerator, a mini kitchen, and a washing machine, which was very convenient during my stay. There was no washer/dryer, but there was something like a laundry drying stand in the room, so I used that to dry my clothes. It was winter, so the ondol was on, and my clothes were completely dry while I was out. There is a GS25 and a Pascooch Cafe below the residence, which were also very nice points. ————————————————————— 📍Sorago Myeongdong Hotel Residence 🏨Deluxe Double (1 Queen Bed, 1 Single Bed) 💸2 nights ¥22,000 (as of Feb 2024) Ⓜ️Chungmuro ​​Station Exit 7, about 5 minutes walk ————————————————————— #Korea Accommodation 2024 #Seoul Trip #Seoul Hotel #Korea Hotel #Korea #Korea Trip #Korea Solo Trip #Chungmuro ​​Hotel

The hotel is located very close to Chungmuro ​​Station. Transportation is good and there is a subway station nearby. There is also a convenience store, Wowpass machine, and restaurants on the first floor of the hotel. There are also restaurants around the hotel, which was very convenient. Myeongdong is within walking distance. The room was clean and had a large refrigerator, washing machine, and microwave. There is a washing machine, but no detergent, so you will need to bring your own. The bathroom and toilet are shared, but there is no bathtub. There is no need for a transformer and there is a USB plug. It is a hotel I would like to use again next time. #Myeongdong #SoragoMyeongdongHotel&Residence

#0yentravelautumn #trip This was my first time going to Seoul in the fall, and perhaps because the heat in the Kanto region hasn't subsided yet, I was able to travel to Korea during a very comfortable time of year. I was able to stay at a cheap hotel through Trip.com! There was a convenience store on the first floor of the hotel. There was a large refrigerator and freezer in the room. There was a kettle and a microwave. The room only had a shower, but my feet and the toilet never got wet! I want to go back right now!

The Sollago Myeongdong Hotel & Residence is very conveniently located, just a 5-7 minute walk from the subway transfer station - Chungmuro ​​Exit 7. There is a convenience store nearby and some of their snacks are more affordable than those sold in tourist areas. In addition, the hotel's breakfast offers a variety of choices, allowing guests to satisfy their tastes. The room is equipped with a washing machine, which is very convenient for long-term guests. However, the only minor issue is that the cooling effect of the air-conditioner seems to be not enough and may not provide enough cooling to the guests. Nevertheless, overall this hotel is highly recommendable and offers acceptable levels of service and facilities. #trip #Easter long holiday #Overseas travel #Weekend travel #Relax

I had a schedule in Seoul, so I looked around and made a reservation, but compared to the price, the room was very clean and there was a washing machine and microwave in the room! The staff were also friendly. The hotel building had great facilities and the subway station was less than a 5-minute walk away~ There were many restaurants and convenience stores in front of the hotel, so there was no inconvenience. I would visit again😃

I had originally booked for two people, but my companion couldn't come at the last minute, so I used it for one person. Good points◎ ・Chungmuro ​​Station Exit 7 has an elevator (closest exit) No problem with carrying a suitcase! ・It's easy to walk from the station to the hotel, as it's mostly a main street ・Myeongdong is within walking distance ・There's a 24-hour convenience store in the hotel ・There's a cafe and a yakiniku restaurant in the hotel ・It's operated by touch keys, so you don't have to carry your room key Not so good points△ ・There's no heating (there was an air conditioner, but it only cooled) ・At first glance, the room looked clean, but there was hair on the floor and leftover acne patches in the bathroom ・The hair dryer was fixed in a fixed location (fixed to the bathroom with a cable tie) ・There was only a mirror in the bathroom (I thought it would be difficult to put on makeup if there were two or more women using it ↑The same goes for the hair dryer above!) ・The plan with breakfast was I probably wouldn't recommend it. I stayed for two nights, but the menu didn't change, and it was a buffet that was very similar to a regular cold meal, so I didn't think it was necessary to charge for it. This has nothing to do with hotel services, but... Overall, the hotel has few Japanese and Western guests, and more mainlanders. I had reserved a seat at the breakfast venue, but they sat there without my permission, and they skipped the elevator line without any hesitation... Summary▼ - Good location for use mainly around Myeongdong - Perfect for solo travelers - Good access from the station - Girls' trips may be inconvenient - The rooms are small, so be careful if you're bringing a large suitcase #solotravel #trip #Seoul

This time I came to Korea to play during the holidays. Staying at Solager Myeongdong Hotel Seoul is an unforgettable experience. But there are some minor shortcomings. first, Although the hotel's location is very convenient, But being in the bustling Myeongdong area also means there might be some noise at night, This may be a bit troublesome for tourists who require a quiet environment. Although the hotel's room facilities are generally good, Although it is a new hotel, But some facilities may look a little old. Updates and maintenance may be required more frequently. Some of the room's furniture and decorations have shown some signs of use. Hopefully there will be some updates and improvements in the future. in addition, Although the hotel's dining service offers a wide variety of options, However, there is still room for improvement in the taste and quality of some dishes. Especially in the bar and restaurant section, We hope to further improve the taste and quality of our food. Let guests enjoy the food more satisfactorily. despite this, These minor shortcomings do not affect My overall impression of Solager Myeongdong Hotel Seoul. Excellent location and comfortable accommodation Made my trip in Seoul more enjoyable. I would still recommend this hotel to other travelers. And look forward to visiting again❤️❤️ #Seoul Hotel
