Review summary

Powered by OpenAI

Guests love the exceptional service and hospitality of the staff, especially Sarah Choi and Dani Park. The hotel is conveniently located near Myeongdong shopping street and Chungmuro station, yet away from the busy roads. The rooms are spacious, clean and well-equipped, perfect for families. The hotel offers excellent amenities and daily housekeeping, providing good value for money.

Few guests reported dated amenities, limited facilities in some rooms & noise disturbances from highway-facing rooms. Some inconvenience due to uphill walk to the hotel.

    “Amazing Home Away from Home”

    Oriens was perfect for a family of 4 like us. We have twin toddler age 4 with us and the 2 bedder deluxe suffice is space for them to roam around and for our 5 luggage to be stored and open comfortably. Location was amazing. Uber taxi was easy to get on at Lobby level. And if you're taking subway or bus, exit via level 1 and turn right of the hotel to walk through an alley towards the police station and you will arrive at Chungmuro station exit 4 within minutes. And cross the road, take 104 , 105, 604, 463 at the bus stop to get myeongdong street/subway. Just 1 stop. So convenient. There is also 2 convenience store .GS25 and E-Mart around the same vicinity toward the subway. Cleaning lady was so cute! Every morning will greet us warmly and give us new bottle water even if we choose to have make up service. Counter staff were amazing too. We did early check with payable fee and the staff expedite everything for us. Thankful after red eye flight. Only downside is, the room has no bidet. And the TV volume. The TV volume was cap at 30 but you cant hear anything out of it. Other than that, it is amazing stay. Thank you Oriens Hotel & Residences.

    “Clean accommodation and great staff ( Ben koo)”

    The room was great — a bit stuffy at times, but very well equipped. It had everything we needed, including a small kitchen and a fridge. Housekeeping came every day, always providing fresh water and clean towels. Everything felt tidy and well taken care of. What really left a deep impression on me was the front desk staff, Ben Koo. He’s a polite and attentive young man who wears glasses, and his service was excellent. When we called an Uber XL to the airport, our luggage didn’t fit in the car. Even though we had already checked out, Ben came over to help us with our heavy bags and communicate with the driver. He’s quite slim, but he still went out of his way to lift and organize our 25kg suitcases so everything could fit. Thanks to him, we felt genuinely cared for and appreciated. With employees like Ben, this hotel is truly lucky. We’ll definitely recommend this place to others, and I sincerely wish him all the best!

Check-in was smooth, and they were very attentive to our needs as a family. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable — perfect for us to relax after a long day. The beds were cozy, and everything was well-maintained. What we appreciated most was how family-friendly the hotel is.

Overall, this stay created beautiful memories for our family. We truly enjoyed every moment and would definitely return again.

    “It takes less than 10 minutes to walk to Myeongdong.”

    It was my first trip to Korea with my wife and daughter. The hotel staff was kind and attentive, and there was no unnecessary interference, making it comfortable. The room was clean and had no issues at all. However, be aware that there is no washlet in the toilet. Also, since the toilet and shower are combined, using the shower causes the area near the toilet to get wet, which was somewhat inconvenient. The shower includes complimentary bottles of body soap, shampoo, and conditioner. The room also has a large refrigerator, microwave, and a simple kitchen, making it suitable for long stays. The refrigerator was stocked with complimentary bottled water, which was replenished the next day. It also had a Dyson air purifier and a hairdryer. The hotel is about a 10-minute walk to Myeongdong, but returning is a bit challenging as it involves going uphill. The nearest convenience store is about a 5-minute walk away. The subway station is around 10 minutes away. Taxis booked via Uber were inexpensive, so we hardly used the subway. Given the hotel's location, I recommend taking a taxi over the train if you have three or more travelers. The streets are a bit dimly lit at night, but I didn’t feel unsafe. Personally, I think it's a very good hotel. I would like to repeat my stay when I visit Myeongdong again.

    Two Bedroom Premium Suite
    Stayed 4 nights in December 2025

    “Exceptional”

    We booked 2 bedroom premium suite for 6 days and 5 nights. The room have all it's needed for a family of 5,from the comfortable bed & pillow, fridge,full set of kitchen and washer. The room got cleaned everyday and the window,helps to keep a good air ventilation inside the room. The location is superb,just a few minutes walk to chung-mu ro station and bus stop to get to namsan tower. You can also walk to myeongdong street which is mabe 15mins walk from the hotel. The location is a bit far from a busy myeongdong street which makes it less crowded and calm, which we truly appreciate. Will definitely recommend the room that we booked to other family/friends coming to Seoul,Korea. The staff can understand and speak English that makes it so convenient to us.Thank you.
