Hello! Welcome to your ultimate guide to Korean hotels, brought to you by yours truly, HB (Hotel Boy).
In my recent posts, I’ve showcased the finest hotels in ‘Dongdaemun’, ‘Gangnam’, and ‘Myeongdong’ areas of Seoul.
Top-Rated Hotels in Dongdaemun, Myeongdong, and Gangnam – Simply click on the photo to dive into each respective post!
While there are numerous other vibrant areas in Seoul like ‘Hongdae’, ‘Itaewon’, ‘Insadong’, and ‘Jongro’ that are rich with tourist attractions and hotels, unfortunately, they didn’t have enough hotels to warrant their separate post
But don’t worry! I’ve prepared this special post titled ‘[A Local’s Insight] Discover Top-Rated Hotels Across All of Seoul’ to introduce you to the best hotels scattered throughout Seoul.
Using all of HB’s data collection and analysis capabilities, I’ve personally selected the best hotels in every corner of Seoul for you. Consider this as your comprehensive guide to all hotels in Seoul.
In our quest to find the best hotels in Seoul, we turned to some of the most trusted sources for accommodation information: ‘Agoda’, ‘Booking.com’, and ‘Google Maps’. We poured over the scores, analyzing a total of 213 two-star to five-star hotels that meet HB’s strict criteria.
The result? A curated list of the highest-rated hotels that have truly earned their accolades.
Guest ratings for the hotel: Agoda, Booking.com, and Google Maps.”
“Attention, readers! While the hotel rankings in this post are compiled based on aggregated customer ratings, remember they aren’t absolute. Please bear in mind the following points!
– Price: Hotel prices can dramatically vary depending on your stay dates. We’ve used the weekday prices as a reference, but differences may occur depending on the season, peak or off-peak periods, weekends or weekdays!
– Hotel Classification: We’ve applied hotel classifications based on the standards set by Agoda.
– Ratings: For hotels without ratings (maybe they’re newly opened) or those with too few customer reviews, we’ve strived to maintain objectivity by applying the average ratings of other comparable hotels.
– Rankings: We’ve prioritized hotels with high ratings from three different sites(Agoda, Booking.com, and Google Maps). However, don’t overlook the fact that there could be many hidden gems among the lower-ranked or not-included hotels in this post.”
Without further ado, let’s dive into ‘[A Local’s Insight] Discover Top-Rated Hotels Across All of Seoul’!!
