Great location and price
Fantastic location and exactly as advertised. Our room was small but clean and was easy to check in to. The brunch and patio area were very nice and we appreciated the rooftop space as well. Would definitely return to this hotel if staying in the area.

Very nice hotel!
Clean, comfortable, and a great value for the price. We loved the jacuzzi tub in our room. The check-in and checkout process was easy with friendly and helpful staff. The location is excellent and convenient for tourists. The only thing I wish they had was a shower cap, as I forgot mine at home.

This is a clean, simple hotel. We were able to use their laundry facilities for a very reasonable fee. The included breakfast was very good. We were able to store iur bags before checkin without a fee. Would stay here again.

Pratique pour une étape
Situé dans un quartier sympa, animé et’ proche de tout.
Hôtel basique mais confortable. Idéal pour une étape au cœur de Séoul.
Proche du métro.

Wonderful Hotel in Seoul
After our 3rd time at SimpleStay Hotel we feel compelled to write this review and recommend it to others. It is a very simple place to stay in a vibrant location at a very reasonable price. What makes it so exceptionable is the true kindness and generosity of the staff and owners. Truly a special kind of loving service throughout our two week stays. It also provides a simple breakfast buffet with exceptional coffee, that I love. Certainly not a luxurious hotel, it provides us with the perfect home base as we explore the beauty and culture of Seoul.

We stayed at this property for 6 nights in June - we chose a double premium room which despite being small was very compact and I was particularly impressed at the use of space in the room especially the tiny bathroom. Room was cleaned on request and an inclusive breakfast each day was a big benefit. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful and we paid extra in last day to keep our room for a few more hours before airport. Location is very convenient to subway and walkable to restaurants and convenience stores & high street shopping.
Would return but would choose a bigger room.

Simple but great
The room was clean and the staff were super nice, especially the younger guy working evenings. Breakfast was simple and basic but it got the job done and we enjoyed it for the price. Location was great, could get busy and loud in the evening, but room was quiet. Would definitely recommend and return for my next trip. Little touch up with paint in the rooms would be a nice touch.

hotel is located in a very good area, right next to the metro and close to the city center. staff were great, and the rooms were very clean. However, the toilet started to smell after a few days. Also, window was very small and didn’t have any view. breakfast was poor, but overall, it’s still a good hotel for the price.
