Gaming & Esports Hotels in Seoul

The location is fantastic! Although the room was small, the layout was very efficient. I was surprised they even managed to fit a bathtub and had a separate wet/dry area in such a small space – only in Japan/Korea! The great location meant I could pop back to the hotel to drop off my shopping, which saved a lot of time. Plus, if you cut through the Olive Young store next door, you can get to the other side of the street easily. When checking out, you can use the self-service machine on the first floor, which is super quick. Cars can pull right up to the entrance in the morning and evening. At other times, you have to walk a short distance, but overall, it's very convenient – a one-stop shop for eating, shopping, and exploring!

This was the best hotel of my trip to Korea. It's conveniently located, making it easy to get around, and it was very clean and tidy. To the north are Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bukchon Hanok Village, and to the south are Cheonggyecheon Stream and Myeongdong. I would definitely choose to stay here again next time.

## Location: Perfect Score Right across from Lotte Duty-Free and less than a 5-minute walk to Shinsegae Duty-Free, making it incredibly convenient for shopping. Its location is comparable to the Aloft nearby but significantly better than Voco (which requires a bit of a detour). If you're here for serious shopping, this location will definitely save you time and effort. ## Room & Facilities The room size is similar to Aloft's – both are on the 'compact' side. It's a bit smaller than Voco, so if you have a lot of luggage, you might want to reconsider. The hotel is located within a mixed-use building, so you'll need to go to the 9th-floor lobby for check-in. Waiting for elevators during peak hours can be a bit of a pain. There are free luggage lockers on the 9th floor lobby, which are very convenient to use. ## Service & Details The service was adequate, neither exceptionally good nor bad. However, there's a noticeable drawback: my Trip.com reservation explicitly requested a 'high floor,' but I was given the 11th floor (guest rooms are on floors 10-18). This compromised both the view and the quietness. I recommend calling ahead to confirm or actively requesting a higher floor upon arrival. The central air conditioning noise from the adjacent building runs 24/7, which somewhat affected my sleep. ## Alternatives Next door is Ibis. If you're not sensitive to floor level or room size, you could compare prices for the same location and pick whichever is cheaper. ## Summary: If you're looking for ultimate convenience and don't mind a smaller room or the occasional elevator wait, this place is worth considering. However, if a great view, spacious rooms, or a high-floor experience are important to you, I suggest lowering your expectations or looking elsewhere.

Second stay at Nine Tree Myeongdong I and high recommend anyone to stay here. Super convenient location, just steps away from airport limousine bus stop, subway station and right at Myeongdong street itself. No need to worry about pulling your luggage too far or crossing the road/up down stairs. Staff were friendly and professional during check in. This time my room was a bit smaller than the previous time but it was sufficient as I was traveling solo. Rain shower water pressure is not as strong as the hand held shower head but loved everything else in the room!

While Ctrip shows this hotel opened in 2024, it's likely an older hotel that's been rebranded or renovated. The facilities are a bit dated and the lighting is dim. However, its prime location is a big plus. The sandwiches at the TWO SOME cafe downstairs are delicious. You can walk directly to the hotel from Seoul Station by following the overhead walkway, and you even get a view of Namsan Tower. Namsan Hanok Village is also nearby and worth a visit.

Spacious twin room with a separate shower and toilet, and the water pressure for the shower was fantastic! The location is incredibly convenient! Airport buses 6001 and 6015 stop right in front of the hotel entrance. Subway lines 3 and 4 are downstairs, and Myeongdong is just one stop away. There's a 7-Eleven, KFC, and Burger King right downstairs, plus plenty of local cafes and restaurants!

This hotel boasts an excellent location. Right outside the hotel, there's a subway (train) station, and Jamsilsanae subway station is about 1 km away. Within walking distance, you'll find Seokchon Lake with Lotte Tower and Olympic Park. Across the street is Olive Young, and a Daiso is just a 5-7 minute walk away. There's also a large district nearby with traditional food. Water, tea, and coffee are replenished daily, as is room cleaning. Towels are changed every 3 days, but they never refused when we asked for a replacement (though they do look quite worn from frequent washing). The room comes with slippers and bathrobes. Free drinking water is also available on the 1st floor. The front desk operates 24/7. You'll also find many European cafes nearby. The room has a large TV with various channels and streaming services. Good value for money. The room includes a refrigerator, and the bed is large with very clean linen.

The hotel has a great location, making it easy to get around the city. The 24/7 front desk was very convenient, and having a WOWPASS machine in the hotel lobby was a huge advantage. We also appreciated that drinking water was always available in the lobby, which was a thoughtful and useful service for guests. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with the housekeeping during our stay: when we checked in on July 2, we found that our room had not been properly cleaned. Under the bed, there was a thick layer of dust, cookie crumbs, plastic straws, and used tissues. It was obvious that this area had not been cleaned for a long time. On the morning of July 3, I went to the front desk, showed the receptionist a video of the issue, and requested housekeeping. The receptionist recorded the video on their own phone, wrote down our room number, and assured us that someone would come to clean the room. However, nobody ever came. Later, our bed linen was changed earlier than the dates indicated by the receptionist, but the area under the bed was still never cleaned. After July 4, we requested housekeeping again, including trash removal and fresh towels, but our trash was still not emptied, and our towels were not replaced. The most disappointing part was not the housekeeping schedule itself, but the fact that we reported a cleanliness issue immediately after check-in, the hotel documented the issue, promised to resolve it, and then failed to provide the requested housekeeping. Unfortunately, this experience did not meet the standard we expected from the hotel.

1. The environment is excellent! Other than the room being a bit small and the bed being a bit small, there are no flaws; it's very clean. 2. You can search for ANEUK Hotel on Naver Maps (searching for 'annk' won't work). 3. The lobby on the first floor offers self-service ice, a hot water dispenser, a coffee bar, and disposable tableware, all free of charge! This is fantastic. However, you'll need to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste. 4. Although it's not super close to the city center, the subway is quite convenient. There's a bus stop about 50 meters away that goes to many places. It's relatively close to Hongdae; just a bus ride across the river. 5. Downstairs, there are tons of shops, the kind locals frequent. Eating grilled beef intestines with beer is incredibly satisfying. Plus, ordering takeout is very convenient.

The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic! 👍 The only downside is that the room is a bit small. The front desk staff speak English, and the cleanliness is decent; I always bring my own disposables anyway. Myeongdong is right downstairs, with large Olive Young beauty stores and CU convenience stores. Shopping and dining are incredibly convenient. If you turn left out of the hotel, Myeongdong Station Exit 5 is a 1-minute walk. If you turn right, Lotte Duty-Free and Shinsegae Duty-Free, along with department stores, are less than a 10-minute walk away. The subway and taxis are also super convenient nearby. The 6015 airport limousine bus goes directly to the hotel! 👍👍👍
