This recently renovated guest house is located 3.5 km from Ewha Womans University and 5.9 km from Seoul Station.

I liked how friendly and helpful the host, Mr. KiHo Lee and his mom (They operate the guesthouse) were. From the second my family and I arrived, Mr. Lee assisted us with all of our bags and helped us arrange transportation for the following day. Mr. Lee’s mom made a wonderful breakfast the following morning, which offered quite a bit of variety. The rooms were very clean and comfortable and the bathroom was very clean. The location is close to Hongik University and the Hongik University Metro stop. The area is vibrant with many restaurants, bars, and shopping to offer. My family and I look forward to the next time we can stay at the Good Guesthouse.

Featuring a garden, the recently renovated Hithere guesthouse is located in the centre of Seoul, close to Hongik University Station. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation provides a solarium, free WiFi throughout the property and family rooms.

I thought shared room will be very noisy to sleep in, but after trying it out for the first time, It was very quiet. I slept here for 2 nights and i have no trouble falling asleep ^^ . The guesthouse owner's hospitality is also very warm too. Overall, for those who want to meet new people and making new friends, I recommend this guesthouse instead of a typical hotel room.

    Great location, clean spacious rooms, simple design, quiet nice neighborhood. The manager is very very nice and polite, they kept my luggage while I was away for couple of days. I went back to same guesthouse afterwards. Definitely recommended, very helpful, very close to airport shuttle bus. Close to one of the main palaces, and Hanoek village.

    Momo is a very kind host. She was very helpful, and we managed to communicate well even with our language barrier. The guest house is incredibly central, only a 5min walk to Myeong-Dong station. The central location made it easy to get around, and even with the window open at night, it was surprisingly quiet. I would definitely stay with at Soo Guest House again.

    I normally don’t really write reviews but this was such a comfortable stay! David is an incredible host and helped us with an appointment at the doctor when my friend had issues with hearing. The guesthouse is on walking distance from a lot of places and if you dislike walking a lot, the metro is right outside the door as well. Many breakfast options, many dinner options and a good quality stay, and not to mention quite cheap for all the facilities and surroundings!

    The guest house is located within five minutes from main shopping streets in Myeongdong. Around there is a plenty of cafes and shops. However, at night it is very quiet. The room was small, but convenient and clean. The host replied promptly to all the questions.

    enjoyed my stay at YAB guesthouse! chris and simon are great hosts - they were quick to respond to messages and help with requests. the guesthouse itself is in a great location in hongdae - near the main strip (but never got too loud at night!) and a 3 min walk from the subway. rooms are slightly smaller than expected but the beds are comfy and you still have enough space to move around. there’s a common area too which was nice! the guesthouse felt busy but there were never major queues to use the bathroom/kitchen area.
