It's three story building without an elevator, where I stayed on the third floor taking up bags in the very narrow & steep hallway and steps. The entrance was rocky. On the checkout day, the staff helped carrying the luggage downstairs. It has 3 washers /dryers with laundry detergent."

"I've stayed here twice in the past year. I could definitely say this is my favorite hostel I've stayed at throughout my travels in the past 3 years. The staff are worth their weight in gold. They are so nice and connect with you on a personal level. They give the best recommendations on places to eat, drink, and explore. Shrek and Say-beok are so kind and really make sure that you feel welcome. They definitely make the place feel like a second home while you stay there. I hope to come back again...

Top Seoul Hotel Reviews

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun

10/10 Excellent
"A truly enjoyable stay at ENA Suite Seoul. We’ve been going back to this same hotel a few times every year . The room is spacious and comfortable, making it easy to relax after a long day out. Housekeeping is impeccable — the team always does a wonderful job keeping everything neat and fresh throughout our stay. The location is also very strategic, with easy access to key areas around the city. A great choice for a comfortable and fuss-free stay in Seoul! Grateful to Daniel for rendering help on our last day of stay and offering to help us with reservations at reputable restaurants! I only wish the hotel will make an effort to remember its regular guests :)) will be back soon! "
