Fantastic checkin with good staff but bad checkout”

On arrival, a lady at the front desk was very kind sincere and welcoming . She gave us an upgrade due to the remodeling in the hotel and noise as well as walking us to the elevator and saying to let her know if we needed anything. The room was nice and big. Nice TV with many channels, water, comfortable brds and allowed us to stay later after the check out time of 12:00 because I got sick that morning after eating in the cafe in the hotel. I had a set menu of salad, bread, croissant, an egg, and / slimes of ham. After I sat there about 30 minutes after eating, I stayed feeling sick and went to get a bottle of medicine for stomach but did not help much. I left the hotel and went to the clinic and they diagnosed me with food poisoning which I have the document. I then had tried to stay an additional night there because of sickness but when I booked the next night using another travel site, I mistakenly chose Ramada Seoul Dongdaemun Encore it looked similar. Started nice ended bad

Great location, staff, price and rooms!”

firsty.. location: this hotel is located between 2 subway stations. it's about a 5 - 10 minute walk from either subway stop - (euljiro 4-ga or dongdaemun history culture park). you can walk above ground (not much to see though, small cafes only) or underground sports markets. the underground walk connects directly to the subway station (exit 17 is the closest to the hotel). walking around here, also feels very safe. we were walking at midnight and it was fine. the dongdaemun markets/shopping area is open until 5am! so the location of the hotel is great, as after a day of touring or activities, you can go shopping til late, and simply walk home at 3am. to and from incheon airport it takes about 1.5 - 2hrs... you can take the subway straight from the airport (have to transfer lines 2 times i think, from memory), or there's an airport bus (bus 6001) and the bus stop is only 3 - 5minutes walk around the corner from the hotel (in front of the co-op). price: i (24) stayed here with my partner (27), cousin (17) and friend (25). we had a 4 single beds room (which is rare!) with included breakfast. we stayed for 5 nights. the price was soooo cheap considering it was a deluxe (korean standard) hotel. breakfast wasn't a traditional continental breakfast, it's a mixture of korean and western things. the menu isn't very large, but it's good, and it changes everyday to prevent it from getting boring, for those staying more than a few days and have breakfast there everyday. in comparison to other hotels, the price was really value for money. room/staff: the room was very clean! the bathroom was very clean! the shower water was nice and warm. we came here when it was the end of winter so it was still quite cold weather, and the heating system was a lifesaver. the place doesn't have a heater, but it has heated floors! and that was enough to heat up the whole room, even to the point where it was so warm, we needed to open the windows to let some fresh cold air in.

Happy with the hotel,room and staff.”

We stayed in Ramada Seoul Dongdaemun for 6 nights and was happy with the service we got at the hotel.The front desk staffs were ever so helpful and polite. Room was big enough for the 3 of us to stay comfortably.The washing machine came in handy and nice fridge. The room would have been super perfect if they had a microwave.:) Breakfast was good too,different choices everyday.Enjoyed the salads,croissant and others. They even packed our breakfast on the last day as we left at 6am,which was very accommodating. We would stay there again for sure. Taxis are easily available and about 10mins walk to the subway.

Friendly staffs”

We had a great stay at Ramada with the excellent service provided by the front desk staffs. They are friendly and helpful. One of the staffs had helped to solve my problem in communicating with the transport company for booking of a coach for us to go Everland. She had even further rendered help to accompany me to a nearby bank to make payment for confirmation of the coach reservation. We were deeply touched by her kindness and effort to help us so much. Airport shuttle (6001) will drop passengers round the corner so easy to find Ramada. We will return to Ramada for our stay the next time we visit Seoul.

Excellence service and great location.”

Excellent room - Good location”

The room we booked with Agoda was a suite and we got a very good deal. The room itself was great. The staff were also very friendly and helpful with any inquiries that we had. The location of the hotel is near Dongdaemun and the Russian neighborhood of Seoul, so if you like Russian food, this is a great place to stay. It's also close to the CJ One Food World, which offers some other varieties of cuisine. The only disappointing part of the stay was the breakfast buffet. It was decent, but we were expecting more, I guess. And any breakfast buffet with no bacon is no true breakfast buffet. Overall, we were very happy with this hotel.

One of the most memorable Hotel in Seoul”

The staff of this hotel gave us a warm and accommodating welcome that left us a feeling of ease and comfort. Truly our experience with Ramada Dongdaemun was very memorable and we are definitely going to be back here if ever we visit Seoul again. One of the best hotels in Seoul in my opinion.

One of the Best Value-for-Money Hotels in Dongdaemun”

We transferred to this hotel a day after arriving in Seoul because our original hotel (Recenz Dongdaemun) didn't have doors for their bathrooms—and we couldn't be happier with our decision. The room was much bigger, the staff was much friendlier and more accommodating and the hotel itself was so much closer to everything. Both the subway station and Dongdaemun's main shopping district are like a two- to four-minute walk away. There are also at least two convenience stores near the place if you ever need snacks and other supplies in the middle of the night. We'll definitely stay here again when we fly back to Seoul.

good location, spacious and cozy room”

highly recommended to stay in this hotel. big room, more like studio apartment than hotel room with big fridge, washing machine, and floor heating which is very warm and cozy during winter. location is great, very center, around 10 min walk to dongdaemun shopping district, 5 min walk to subway and very near to airport bus stop. the only minus point is extra cost for in room internet, but got free wifi in lobby. and check in time was not flexible, we arrived early around 10am, but need to pay extra for early check in. so we waited until 2pm for normal check in time but we could deposit our luggage in the hotel. overall we enjoyed staying in this hotel, and would return here if we visit seoul.

Spacious Room and good service”

For a family of 5 (including 2 children), we were overwhelmed by the spaciousness of the family room when we first stepped into the hotel room. With 4 single beds and plenty of space for the kids to run around, we loved that we did not have to cramp ourselves. The market, where you can get fresh produce of fish, etc as well as packed seaweed is just opposite the hotel. To reach Dongdaemun, you have to walk for about 10 mins, though. Ramada Hotel is 8-10 mins walk to Dongdaemun Culture & History Park Subway, which is pretty convenient. The service in Ramada is relatively good, with English-speaking staff who are friendly and helpful. The breakfast served is average.

Pleasant stay at Ramada Dongdaemun”

I had a pleasant stay at Ramada Dongdaemun. The hotel staff at the reception spoke good English and were very helpful in providing directions. The hotel room was fairly big, with a fridge and washing machine. There is a coffee shop next to the hotel reception. There is also a halal Indian restaurant about 10-15 minutes walk away, at a small road just before Good Morning City mall.

Centrally located. Cosy rooms.”

Stayed 6 nights at Ramada Dongdaemun. It takes about 15mins walk to the Dongdaemun shopping area via the Euljiro Underground shopping walkway or along the main road. Three main train lines are located near this hotel as well including the airport bus stop which is a stone's throw away. Rooms were big for the price and the basic amenities were all available in the room. Will return to stay for my next Seoul visit.

Great location and helpful staffs”

My wife did choose this hotel because of the reviews are very good and the hotel's name is Ramada. My wife and I were surprise to see that it was a condotel (condominium hotel) we were disappointed because it was not what we expected. Anyway, the front staffs compensated our disappointment since they were very helpful to us. They tried to make our stay comfortable and thanks to them we did enjoy our stay in Ramada. One thing my wife complained was that there were cigarette butts inside the small room behind the air condition and we are not smoking person.

great hotel, had everything we needed, gofull mark”

the ramada hotel dongdaemun staff was extremely helpful, kept our suitcases in a safe place while we travelled to busan. this hotel is almost new, good value. hotel was not on any of our maps. it is 4 stops away on line 4 from seoul station.

nice location”

The Ramada hotel is near shopping and dining centers. It is also convenient that the airport limousine bus stop is nearby. When you take a taxi to the hotel, you need to specify Dongdaemun Ramada, as there are a few hotels of Ramada group in Seoul. I would recommend this hotel.

Good (not great) location”

Near Dongdaemun shopping district (and the Dongdaemun Culture metro station), but it's about a ten minute walk: conveniently located but can be a pain after a long, tiring day of walking. Because of it's location, you have easy access to different metro lines. I like the fact that you can walk to Dongdaemun, but unfortunately, there isn't a lot of things immediately around the hotel. There's a convenient store to the left (with an ATM machine that accepts foreign cards) and the hotel cafe and restaurant, but nothing else. But don't let that be a turn off, because if you don't mind the walk, you can just go over to Dongdaemun and eat fried chicken. I requested for a smoking room, but was given a non-smoking room on the second floor. Possibly because I was a solo traveller asking for a double bed. The room is nice and comfy for one, but the windows were pretty dusty. Each time I drew the curtains, I would start sneezing. All in all, it's a good chain hotel that I don't regret staying in, but I would stay somewhere different the next time I'm in Seoul.

best value for money”

ramada seoul dongdaemun is best value for money. easy to access public transpotation same as subway. limited breakfast menu but still acceptable. near by dongdaemun market overall nothing to complain and friendly service

Spacious room”

Ramada Seoul Dongdaemun is a good hotel with spacious room. It has big refrigerator, washing machine, mini-bar, coffee table and chairs, but small beds. It is very convenient to reach. It is close to the air-bus stop and metro stations. It is also close to the shopping mall and attractions.

great as what you would expect from the pictures! ”

Room was pretty comfy and clean! 4 beds in one room is heck of a deal that you would find no where else! I really enjoyed my night over at ramada dongdaemun

Great Location”

The hotel's location is absolutely great - on a relatively quiet street of Dongdaemun, yet barely a 7 minute walk from all the action and the DDP (Dongdaemun Design Plaza). There are plenty of small coffee shops and cafes in the area, and a convenience store just outside the hotel.The staff at the front desk is very helpful, and communicates easily in English. However there is place for just 5 or 6 people to sit in the lobby, and I wish the coffee shop connected to the hotel would not shoo away the hotel's residents if they don't want an immediate coffee. All ina ll, it was a very pleasant experience, and great value for money
