Hotel Lumia Myeongdong

The location was my favorite thing about this hotel, as well as the small canteen/business area on the ground floor.

The bed was not that comfortable.

The staff was friendly and they made sure we understood the use of the facilites, the room was super clean, the amenities where amazing, clean towels and the cleaning service was aprecciated every day. The location is pretty good too, near a metro station and a walkable distance from the shopping part of myeongdong. We arrived during Chuseok and they even gave us rice cakes 🤍 It has a convenience store nearby. Nice view from the room. Easy check in and check out.

Nothing, everything was perfect. The room is small for what we are used to, but we understand that its that way in Seoul

Friendly stuff, it felt decent value for money.

A little dated and tiny rooms.

- The check in was fast and efficient - There is luggage storage in the main lobby area prior to check in time, and we get to take a pic + receive a number for the bags stored. Good system - access into the hotel is by keycard access, which I think is good and made me feel safe. You are free to use the microwave and hot/cold water dispenser in the cafeteria area - close to convenient stores and close to station. Location is quite good

- I disliked that on check in, you could see the names and room number of everyone who has a reservation for the day. I think could be unsafe and a potential breach of confidentiality. - There are washing machine and drying facilities available in the hotel for no cost (you just have to get your own detergent/buy it from the front desk), but they are not well maintained. The machine on 5F was mouldy, and 3F was only slightly better. - The room I stayed in felt stuffy without the air conditioning, but it felt like the aircon has not been cleaned/maintained well either - Hotel is on a hill, just so people who are less mobile are aware
