About

Oriens Hotel & Residences Myeongdong

Oriens Hotel & Residences Myeongdong sits on Samil Daero 2Gil in the Jung-gu district of Seoul, a short walk from the Myeongdong shopping area and metro stations. It is a 3-star property but leans toward apartment-style living, with most rooms including a kitchenette or full kitchen, a dining table, and a washing machine.

The hotel pairs its residential feel with hotel services: a 24-hour reception, luggage storage, laundry and dry cleaning, and a fitness centre. An on-site golf course is mentioned in the property description, and the hotel can arrange a paid airport shuttle. Nothing about the property suggests a standard cookie-cutter stay — it is built for longer visits or travellers who want a home base.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Rooms that feel like apartments — Most accommodation includes a kitchen or kitchenette, a dining table, and a washing machine — useful for longer stays or families who want to cook.
  • Staff consistently praised — Reviewers repeatedly highlight friendly, helpful, and professional service, from arranging an early airport taxi to general warmth throughout the stay.
  • Prime Myeongdong position — The hotel is a short walk from Myeongdong shopping street and two metro stations, putting shops, restaurants, and attractions within easy reach.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • No views in many rooms — Several room types are explicitly 'No View', so if a skyline or N Seoul Tower view matters, confirm the room category before booking.
  • Breakfast is not included for all — One reviewer notes breakfast came at an additional charge, so factor that into the rate if you plan to eat at the hotel.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may rule it out for travellers with animals.
