6.8 Affordable stay - Joyce 20-06-2025

Review: A family of 2 adults and a teenager stayed for 5d/4n in a 2 bedroom deluxe room (64msq). Room comes with a sitting area with sofa set / chaise lounger seat and kitchen, washing machine cum dryer function (though the clothes are not thoroughly dry after using the dryer function), ironing board / steam iron, clothes rack. One bedroom comes with a single bed and the other with a double & single bed. Toilet seat does not have a bidet but there is bath tub for soaking after a long day of walking. Housekeeper will replenish towels / water bottles / clearing of garbage bags daily. Staff response to a complaint is quick. Finding the hotel took some time to locate cos it's not visible from main road. After passing the Jungbu police station, turn right and walk about 8m then you'll see the signage and take the lift to lobby for check-in procedure. Walking to Myeongdong shopping area is doable however taking a bus (#421 or 507) from main road (bus stop near police station) is possible too. There is also a direct bus (#104B) to Namsan Tower (bus stop near to Hanok Village House). There are 2 convenience shops near hotel (can top-up T-money card). Overall - would recommend this hotel who prefers big rooms and quiet ambiance compared to Myeongdong area which has lots of bright lights and noise.

7.0 My stay at Oriens Hotel & Residences Myeongdong was comfortable with a great location - Ngan 28-03-2025

Positive points: I recently stayed at Oriens Hotel & Residences in Myeongdong and had a very pleasant experience. The hotel is perfectly located, just a short walk from the bustling shopping district, making it ideal for exploring the vibrant area. The room was spacious, modern, and clean, with all the necessary amenities. The bed was comfortable, and I appreciated the little touches, like the kitchenette, which made the stay even more convenient. The bathroom was well-designed, though the water pressure in the shower could have been a bit stronger. The staff was friendly and helpful, offering good recommendations for local attractions and restaurants. Check-in and check-out were quick and hassle-free. The location is definitely a highlight, with easy access to Myeongdong's shopping streets, restaurants, and public transportation. It's the perfect base for tourists looking to explore Seoul. While the hotel doesn't have many amenities, the essentials were all there. I did miss having a fitness center, but everything else, including the free Wi-Fi and laundry facilities, made the stay comfortable and hassle-free.rnrnOriens Hotel & Residences offers great value for money, combining comfort, convenience, and a fantastic location. It could use a few small improvements, like stronger shower pressure, but overall, I would recommend it to anyone visiting Myeongdong.

Negative points: I was very disappointed with the gym at Oriens Hotel & Residences. For a hotel that prides itself on offering comfort and convenience, the gym was a major letdown.rnrnThe gym was incredibly small and had very limited equipment. There were 3? treadmills, a couple of outdated machines, and a few dumbbells. It wasn’t nearly enough for a proper workout, and the space was cramped, making it uncomfortable to use.

8.0 Overall, a good week long stay. - EP 18-01-2025

Positive points: Kind and friendly employees from front desk to service staff

9.0 Highly recommended for Family of 4 and below - David 29-12-2024

Positive points: Everything in this hotel. From services to accomodation, my family totally loves it. Place as pics described and it is so clean. The beds are so comfortable. Vibe was liked living in my own place. highly recommended for family.

Negative points: Although it is a short distance to the metro station, it is not so convenient to carry luggage to and flo from metro to oriens. There is only one bathroom catered for the family and we have to take turns. This is the only flaw for our stay, or else everything is good.
