Best hotels & accommodations in Itaewon

This was my third stay and everything was excellent. Professional staff. Competent and helpful at all times. Rooms are a bit small, but comfortable and so are the beds. I liked that they have a free internet option (not usual for a 5-star hotel), which is sufficient to download emails. The breakfast and lunch buffets are great and I love the view over the river sipp...

It's so hard to find a taxi out of Itaewon on the weekend. So, when staying in Seoul, I've tried various hotels in the Itaewon area and this is the best due to the quiet location. It's out of the way from the insane noise of honking taxis and drunk revelers. Even if you happen to be one of the drunk revelers, you still may want to sleep eventually. This is my favor...

I have been to Seoul more than 30 times and usually book this place because of its location. It is right in front of Itaewon station, very convenient in city center, good access from airport and easy to move around. The room is clean and has free and fast Wifi. They used to have Korean Sauna at B1F but now the size is smaller, I still enjoy it though. Their staff is t...

Very good experience on the whole: very clean, well-maintained, very courteous staff, and very conveniently located to Itaewon and subway. My only negative comment is that the area that the hotel is located in is surrounded by bars with b-girls. Safety was not a concern, but if you are coming with a family, or otherwise have a strong objections to encountering this ...

This was my second stay at IP Boutique hotel. If you're looking for a hotel in Itaewon, then this is a great choice. To be honest, there are not many hotels in Itaewon to choose from. IP hotel is clean and artsy, with lots of eclectic artwork on display. The staff was friendly and spoke English well enough. The hotel is also a few blocks away from the heart of Itaewon...

A great funky hostel in a refurbished apartment block. First impression is a stunner, as you approach from the black lane off the Main Street. Great rooftop terrace with views over Itaewon. Maybe a 4 minute walk from the exit of the subway and right in the heart of Itaewon. The owner/manger is really friendly and funny and took great care of me. The free morning breakf...

Staff is very aware how to treat their guests. I am the type of hotel guest that does not need to mingle, ask and be nursed by hotel staff. They picked that up right away which was comforting. Out of more than 50 hotels I've stayed at the bed (which is what you actually buy when staying at a hotel), was probably the best. The shower head was slighty to low, but hey ...

I was just looking for a place near Itaewon station to stay for one night. The location was good and the price was practical. My expectations were low when I first booked the room (Forgot the name, it was the one where there is a king?queen size bed in the middle of the picture) However the room was super clean, and the air conditioner worked perfectly (seemed like ...

I had a wonderful experience staying at Philstay Itaewon. Checking in was a breeze. Room was clean and the amenities was good. Staff was very friendly and really made you feel welcome and at home. They have a nice and cosy dining area for dinner and breakfast. You can also do some simple laundry using their mini washer. The best part is when i left my ipod under the be...

We arrived past midnight and a staff was there to welcome us even though it was very late. There's no elevator btw. (idk why agoda says it does- the only con) Just ask the staff to help you carry your bags. The female dorm has enough space even for big luggages, big warm bunk beds, and storage for valuables. The toilet is well maintained and cleaned twice(?) a day. L...

Banana Backpackers Guesthouse is located close by Seoul Station. If you are coming from Incheon Intl' Airport, the AREX is really close by. Most sightseeing spots such as Namsam Tower, Myeongdong, Dongdaemun, Itaewon are a few subway stations away. The check-in process is super quick, the staff are ready to help and the amenities are available if you did not bring your...

Location is in the heart of Itaewon surrounded by countless restaurants,bars,coffee shops, cafe, shops etc. Almost everything you need is just around. The house is ewsy to find. Convenience is superb. Hosts are great, friendly, and welcoming. The inconvenient part: Room is bit tight though. Lower deck bed is better but upper deck bed isn't easy to access. Everyone ...

I love staying at the Itaewon Land Spa and Guestroom whenever we visit Seoul. Very cheap and the room isn't much to look at, but having a full spa for no additional price is an incredible benefit. For $25 (ish) you have a 24hr restaurant and spa at your disposal. Being in Itaewon, you're sure to bump into a bunch of characters, but the sauna, hot tubs, showers, and var...

The location of the place is very good since it is very near the subway station, and just walking distance to Itaewon. Our room is clean and comfortable and since the place is so quiet, it is a very nice place to rest after a very hectic and tiring day of fun and activity. There are a couple of restaurants and groceries nearby so you can buy something to eat anytime ...

Nice place in a good location. It's a bit far to walk to Itaewon station but there are very regular buses that you can take from right near there. Only takes about 10 minutes by bus from here to Itaewon station, just take the number 400 or 405. Kind owner, spoke a little bit of English but would help if you can speak some Korean (easier to communicate with the staff). ...

As Seoul is a giant city, it was hard for us to chose a location. But with a DMZ tour booked, we decided to stay in the area. We are so glad to have chosen suncity hostel as it was a nice clean hostel with friendly staff. The location is great with the war memorial bing close by and 2 subway stations away from Itaewon (full of amazing restaurants). Also, from the airpo...

This place is great! The owner, Geofrey, is super friendly and kind. The house is surrounded by a Mosque, a lot of halal restaurants (Korean, Turkish, India, Malaysia) as well as Itaewon subway station. All are within 5 minutes walk. This house is slightly on the hill, so you get a very nice view around Itaewon. If you want a better view, you must go to the nearby Mo...

This is a great Guesthouse!! For the price, it is an amazing deal. The location is super convenient, right by Itaewon Station and all the restaurants and bars. It's also very big, with a separate living room, bathroom, and kitchen space like a real apartment. The owner was extremely nice and let us set our own check in and check out times. The only real downside was t...

Perfect place for backpackers! Nestled right in the heart of itaewon.. 3-5min walk to itaewon station. Good breakfast provided. (Cereal, toast, egg, coffee, tea, milk). Cooked rice is available 24hrs. Directions to guesthouse: Stop at ITAEWON station. Take exit no.4 Once out of exit, turn left n then right. You will see IBK bank on your right side. Turn right again af...

This guesthouse is in a perfect location, just a few meters off the main road in Itaewon. It's in an alley, which makes it quiet, but difficult to find the first time. It is not luxurious, but it has a low price, and the boss lady was went out of her way to be nice and helpful. I was very happy staying here for five days, and I think you will be happy, too. The wi-fi c...

Having been staying in most of the guesthouses in Itaewon, I would say this is probably the best! If you are looking for a budget stay, then this is definitely the one! It has all the basic things you need. And the room is at least more spacious than those you can find in Itaewon (FYI, I stayed in this double bedroom). They also have very simple breakfast (bread with j...

My stay in Cube Guesthouse is one of a kind. The owner of the guesthouse is really kind. He is very mindful and will always ask if what you need. You get for what you paid for. Room was small but clean. Wifi is very strong. Guesthouse has kitchen and you can wash your clothes. Location wise because its very near in Itaewon Station. Will definitely book again when I ...

Fit the bill for "crashing" in Itaewon for one night after event with friends. I got a solo room, which was clean and comfy. The usual issues as any "guesthouse" in Seoul, only 1 restroom for ALL guests (good luck with shower/bathroom "timing"; though, not busy until after 9:30am); but the restroom was cleaner than other guesthouses "crashed" in for a night. The own...

It's possible for a group to book and have the place to themselves. No other place in Itaewon offers this. Much quieter than other guesthouses. Make you own breakfast - eggs, bread, bananas, coffee, tea, oil, salt, pepper, etc. available. Equipped kitchen and common area open 24/7. Guesthouse is on the first floor of an actual home. The family is very kind and gave me...

it'll be short. i was surprised of how clean was everything, the customer services, owner speaks really good english, he will assist you or give you travel tips and was really professional . there are different rooms options, and the bathroom is korean style, toilet and shower all together. for that price i would have never expected such a good service. subway i...

I really loved our experience here. I was a little apprehensive about the guesthouse experience with my daughter and husband, but to my surprise it was fantastic. The girl that runs the place was so welcoming and talked me through how to get there on the phone when I couldnt find it. Once inside, we had our own room and the place was super cute. The korean style house ...

I stayed at Yacht Guest House April 17th-23rd 2016. I would strongly recommend this place due to its awesome location, hospitality, and value for money (especially for solo and/or budget travelers) . I was very pleased with my double room on the first floor. The bathroom was always clean and despite its location in Itaewon -close to bars and restaurants- I was always a...

Our stay at the SP@Itaewon Guesthouse Deluxe was perfect. The location is fantastic as its right in the mix of all the restaurant, bars and shopping. Even though the location is centrally located in Itaewon, the hostel is slightly up a hill making it quieter at night. The hostel is less than a 5 minute walk away from the subway which was super convenient. We stayed in ...

We had a great experience, as side from our reservation not being processed by the guesthouse system. Noel was super friendly about this though - and actually supplied us with a nicer room than reserved. She was also very nice about giving us ideas of what to do while in Seoul. Some of the rooms are not actually on the guesthouse property. Just be aware of this. Othe...

clean hostel not too far from itaewon area. Only thing is that the bathrooms and showers are communal - toilets have cubicles but the showers do not. So you have to lock the entire bathroom if you want to shower (and others have to wait to use the bathroom or shower). That's the only discomfort. Otherwise, beds and rooms are clean!

More about Itaewon
The area’s major landmark is the iconic Hamilton Hotel near Itaewon subway station. The main street sloping west downhill is lined with clothing stalls, tailors, western pool bars and restaurants. Besides the Western fare, there are also a number of delicious Indian restaurants in the area.
Due to its proximity to the nearby United States Army Garrison Yongsan, a large number of American military are found here in the evenings and weekends. It is not unusual to see uniformed Military Police enforcing the curfew. The area can get very lively on Friday and Saturday nights, with a colorful mix of American soldiers, English teachers, tourists and Korean locals keen on meeting foreigners.
