HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

HOTEL THE BOTANIK SEWOON MYEONGDONG

8/10 Good
"The hotel is not close to myeongdong shopping street. You will need to take the subway (not tourist friendly) or uber(about $6-$8 each way). Walk close to 30 minutes. It is a nice hotel clean, family rooms are in building B and the hotel doesn’t have staff to help carry bags if you have too many. If I going back to Seoul, I rather to stay closer to Myeongdong. My overall I will give this hotel 7.5 out of 10, or 3.5 stars out of 5."
