    Stayed 2 nights in April 2026

    “Spacious and comfortable.”

    The room was a suite on the 20th floor with an excellent view. It had a large round bathtub, as well as a shower room and a twin-bowl sink. The amenities included a kettle, hairdryer, paper cups, green tea tea bags, instant coffee, face towels, bath towels, and a bathrobe. The staff at the front desk spoke Japanese very well and were very kind and pleasant. It was right in front of exit 10 of the subway, which was very convenient.

    “This hotel has a very good cost performance!”

    I was very satisfied to stay at a place that has a bathtub, a separate toilet, adequate space, is close to the subway station, and just one station away from Seoul Station, all at a reasonable price considering the location and conditions. The hotel staff was kind, spoke to us in Japanese, and the cleaning was thorough, allowing us to spend three comfortable nights. The 12 PM checkout was also helpful. I will rely on this place again when I visit Korea!

    “Convenient, just one station away from Seoul Station.”

    Since it was via Incheon, I chose this nearby hotel to check in at Seoul Station in advance. It was conveniently close, just 9 minutes from Dongdaemun, and made it easy to go to various places like modern Seoul, Myeongdong, and Seongsu. The room was spacious and had a bathtub, and there were staff members who could speak Japanese, so I would like to use it again next time. It was the best trip.

    “Everything about the X10 was perfect.”

    I've lived in Seoul for decades, but this accommodation made me realize for the first time how beautiful the view of Namsan is! There wasn't a single hair left on the bedding, the staff at the counter greeted us with bright smiles every time, the bedding was comfortable, the TV worked well, and it was in the best location with everything you could possibly need nearby.

    “A bit expensive, but a very wonderful hotel.”

    The location is really good! Right in front of the Sukdae Entrance Station, and there's also Namyeong Station just 5 minutes away, making it convenient to go to Gwanghwamun, Yongsan, Itaewon, and Yeouido. Especially, you can walk back to the accommodation from Haebangchon in about 20 minutes. It's close to Seoul Station, so KTX access is good. Next, it's very clean. It felt like the bedding, floors, and bathrooms were well maintained. Soundproofing is also good. If you get assigned to a high floor, you can see a wonderful open night view! In the basement, there’s a breakfast restaurant, a laundry room (washing machine + dryer), a gym, and a male-only sauna. I think they have stylish and excellent amenities. I used it for 160,000 won per night. It's a bit expensive for a 2-star hotel, but it was a very satisfying accommodation experience.
