Our stay was a mixed experience, with some clear highlights and some notable disappointments. The good: The location is excellent, easy to walk around, convenient access to public transportation, and simple to get an Uber. It’s close to shopping and the Design Plaza, which was a big plus. The breakfast spread is great, with lots of variety and options. I also really enjoyed the gym and pool facilities, and I had a massage at the spa which I highly recommend. The staff, especially the doormen, were friendly and welcoming. The not-so-good: The property feels old and dated, and the rooms clearly show signs of aging. Our headboard had stains, and the shower had brown stains/mold, which was disappointing for a JW Marriott. We arrived at night and received no assistance with our luggage, despite there being two people at reception. We also tried the buffet dinner one evening, which was underwhelming — cold food and no refills. That said, the duty manager Amy handled the situation well and provided good service once we raised these concerns. Overall, the location and amenities are strong, but the hotel would greatly benefit from a major refresh to truly meet JW Marriott standards. ##### Swathi Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eduardo Sep 12, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very nice hotel, clean, well located, excellent staff service.

As usual this hotel is the epitome of service. I especially want to give special credit to max at the front desk. I’m not sure if he’s new, but he was most helpful upon check in all through check out. ##### Justin Stayed 3 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew Mar 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Impressed is an understatement I would be close to saying that this has been one of my favourite hotels I have stayed at around the world. The attentiveness of staff, service, quality could not have been better. I’m not easily impressed and I’ve had nothing but good things to say. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Nov 10, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel and the room itself was dated. Much more of a boutique feel than anticipated. Also, too much noise could be heard from outside, despite being in a designated quiet room. The bed was comfortable as expected, but feel that most of its 5 star hotel competitors in Seoul provide much better value and higher quality in every facet ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Flawless from start to finish. My wife and I stayed here as part of our South Korea trip. Although our 2.5 year old wasn’t with us she would have had a wonderful time if she was. Staff were friendly and smiling; from the first doorman that greeted us, to the reception staff, restaurant staff and gym staff. We felt the staff were especially professional and wouldn’t let us lift a finger. The property is clean, modern and impressive. It is connected to the Dongdaemun metro station which makes getting about very easy. The gym is truly outstanding, as is the swimming pool (with a small toddlers pool full of about 100 rubber ducks). We had an executive room with a wonderful gate view which was large and modern. It had lounge access and we felt the food offerings were of a great quality. When I was booking I couldn’t decide between this and the Westin Josun so I booked both. I’m now at the Westin and wish I could go back to the JW Dongdaemun as the Westin is not in the same league. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BE892F9B2A18A9E4999C759D8B25E4A0F7CBCFF31730557307469.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis Jun 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities When a team works well, this is what you get 10/10\. And at this scale, a hotel. The executive suite is the home away from home. There are many staff members to be compliments. Allen and Jessica from the front office are polite and give clear information. The concierge and bell desk team is exceptional, a shout out to David. I stayed for a week and watched the breakfast room team work effortlessly and dedication to details. Attentive Justin, the ever sweet, smiley Daisy and Danny - from the noodle station. One can see they are beyond happy and pride in doing what they do. Last but not least, the housekeeping team. When I departed for the airport, how the team worked hand in hand handling the luggage, the doors, and watching out for the traffic was perfection. Thank you, and Marriot Dongdaemun will be my 1st choice when I visit Korea the next time 🙂 ##### Dennis Stayed 6 nights in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Le Méridien Seoul, Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Le-Meridien-Seoul.h89303596.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Ambassador Seoul Hongdae](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Mercure-Ambassador-Seoul-Hongdae.h50919016.Hotel-Information) > > [Aloft Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Aloft-Seoul-Myeongdong.h16606220.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Myeongdong Euljiro](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Travelodge-Myeongdong-Euljiro.h10957081.Hotel-Information) > > [RYSE, Autograph Collection Seoul by Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-RYSE.h2455064.Hotel-Information) > > [L7 MYEONGDONG by LOTTE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-L7-Myeongdong-By-LOTTE.h12511672.Hotel-Information) > > [Solaria Nishitetsu Hotel Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Solaria-Nishitetsu-Hotel-Seoul-Myeongdong.h9761216.Hotel-Information) > > [G2 Hotel Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-G2-Hotel-Myeongdong.h17918478.Hotel-Information) > > [Orakai Insadong Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Orakai-Insadong-Suites.h9780752.Hotel-Information) > > [Lotte Hotel Seoul](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Lotte-Hotel-Seoul.h445260.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Ambassador Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Ibis-Ambassador-Seoul-Myeongdong.h1501011.Hotel-Information) > > [Shilla Stay Seodaemun Seoul Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Shilla-Stay-Seodaemun-Seoul-Station.h9616679.Hotel-Information) > > [NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONDONG 1](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Nine-Tree-Hotel-Myeongdong.h6084370.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Novotel-Ambassador-Seoul-Dongdaemun-Hotels-Residences.h23489421.Hotel-Information) > > [Amanti Hotel Seoul Hongdae](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Amanti-Hotel-Seoul.h15285451.Hotel-Information) > > [Josun Palace, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seoul Gangnam](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Josun-Palace.h4871.Hotel-Information) > > [Signiel Seoul](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Signiel-Seoul.h18060379.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Seoul](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Seoul.h21727.Hotel-Information) > > [ENA Suite Hotel Namdaemun](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-ENA-Suite-Hotel-Namdaemun.h21518483.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Josun Seoul](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-The-Westin-Josun-Seoul.h24908.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sunbee Insadong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Hotel-Sunbee-Insadong.h5302216.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Cappuccino](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Hotel-Cappuccino.h12385513.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Seoul.h59029424.Hotel-Information) > > [Fraser Place Namdaemun Seoul](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Fraser-Place-Namdaemun.h7090628.Hotel-Information) > > [AMID HOTEL SEOUL](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Center-Mark-Hotel.h5490599.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Station](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Josun.h10554498.Hotel-Information) > > [NINE TREE BY PARNAS SEOUL MYEONDONG 2](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-Nine-Tree-Premier-Hotel-Myeongdong-2.h17447885.Hotel-Information) > > [Glad Mapo](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-GLAD-MAPO.h23043990.Hotel-Information) > > [UH Suite The Jongno](https://www.expedia.ca/Seoul-Hotels-UHSuite-Apartment-Myeongdong.h43358413.Hotel-Information)
