Find Capsule Hotels in South Korea

I've written a review for Wood House Hotel before and said I would return here - and I did. The place is still excellent and this time, I even got breakfast here which was simple but good: very good coffee, made with a proper espresso machine, not an automated one, toast, butter, jam, fresh cherry tomatoes and fresh bananas. The lobby doubles as cafe/breakfast lounge and it's lovely. The place is actually very clean. I only gave it one star less this time around because the bathroom, while clean, needs a bit of a deeper clean. Korean bathrooms often don't have windows and however much one cleans, brown edges where the wall and floor tiles meet are sometimes inevitable. Nothing to lose sleep over or feel uncomfortable but it was noticeable. I will definitely return here again and chose the place for the second time although I got a bit of a more expensive room rate than the first time around. Still highly recommended. also for the good communication via text, with directions etc.

I stayed here for the olympics so I didn’t actually spend much time in the inn. Strictly for sleep. However the capsules were very cozy. They aren’t sealed capsules. Just a curtain that gives u privacy. Though the curtain is only opaque halfway up. If ur in a top bunk it doesn’t matter but ppl can look into the bottom bunks. The beds are a bit hard but that’s a positive for me cause I prefer harder surfaces. And that’s the norm in Korea anyway. Bathrooms were small but clean. The staff gives sandwiches and fish cakes for free for breakfast. I docked it a point for value for money cause I paid 35,000 korean won (roughly 31-32 USD) which is too much but it was during the Olympics so I assume that’s a temporary price. Also the location is fantastic. It’s on the beach and if u have a beachside capsule you will have a nice view of the ocean. If not just get up and check out the communal window.

This is an hostel which has an ambition of becoming a hotel! I like it very much! It's a new hostel. Everything is new and clean. The room is well-equipped and nice-furnished! The bed sheet and comforter are super clean! The heating system is powerful, more than warm enough. I felt warm and comfortable in winter nights. There is a tea bag, an instant coffee bag and a bottle of water in your room every day(just like normal hotels do). What's most important is the boss. He is very friendly and helpful. He explained to me how to go to the attractions in details, giving me bus timetables for the attractions in remote districts and even leading me the way to a restaurant at a Sunday night when there were many restaurants closed. If I need to say a disadvantage, that's the breakfast time. The breakfast time is so short, from 8-9 a.m..If you want to have a good rest and sleep later in the morning, then it's highly possible that you will miss the breakfast time. Plus, you still need to walk about 10-12 minutes from the intercity bus terminal/express bus terminal to the hostel. On the way, you can see many hostels. So this one may not be the one which is closest to the terminals.

The place is conveniently located near subway however one would have to go through small alley to get into the building. Bed and capsule is neat, clean and with good ventilation. Capsule size is good enough for sleeping and conveniently has TV inside. Staff is very, very friendly and nice. Bathroom could improved if there is enough shower cubicle and toilet for guests. For female capsules that can accommodate more than 10 guests at same time, it only has 1 shower area and 2 toilets.

The Cube felt like a little, cozy home in the heart of Myeong-dong. It’s a four-ish minute walk from the station, up a slight incline, and up a few flights of stairs. The hosts were extremely friendly, informative, and kind. The facilities were immaculate and easy-to-use. The beds were clean, and they provide a small locker with two towels and a pair of slippers waiting for you inside of it. A nice breakfast was offered each morning, and they have water and tea to consume all throughout the day. The other guests were respectful and quiet, and I felt very safe staying there. Whilst I stayed, they offered a rooftop BBQ event under the full moon for a small cover fee. I couldn’t go, but I’m sure it was amazing!! The host gave me a cool, unique Seoul keychain souvenir made from his lobby’s 3D printer, and for checking out they gave me gummy bears as a thank you for staying with them. When I return to Seoul, I would stay with them again! 💗
