Myeongdong Residence high-rise floor#Euljiro#chungmuro#3 minutes from subway station #Namsan #Hanok village #Gyeongbok palace Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked into Myeongdong Residence high-rise floor#Euljiro#chungmuro#3 minutes from subway station #Namsan #Hanok village #Gyeongbok palace, I’ll be honest — the name is a mouthful, but it actually tells you everything you need to know. This three-star property sits on the 16th floor of a modern building in Seoul, and the views from up there are genuinely impressive. You know what struck me most? The fact that they managed to create a proper residential feel in what’s essentially a high-rise apartment setup.

Location Magic

The location is honestly where this place shines — and I mean really shines. You’re literally three minutes from Chungmuro subway station, which sounds like marketing speak until you’re actually rushing to catch a train with your luggage. I’ve stayed in places that claim to be “close” to transit, but this one delivers. Myeongdong shopping district is right there when you want to dive into Seoul’s retail madness, but you’re also surprisingly close to quieter spots like Namsan Tower and the traditional Bukchon Hanok Village. Couples seem to get this location thing — they’ve rated it 9.5, and honestly, I can see why.

The Space Itself

The room feels more like a proper Seoul apartment than a hotel room, which is exactly what you want when you’re staying somewhere for more than a night or two. There’s a functional kitchen setup that actually works — I mean, you can cook real meals here, not just heat up instant noodles. The high-rise location means you get those city views that make Seoul feel manageable somehow, even when the streets below are buzzing with activity. The space is clean and well-maintained, though don’t expect fancy finishes — this is practical comfort, not flashy design.

Getting Around

Here’s something that matters more than you’d think — they have parking available on site. In Seoul, that’s actually a big deal, especially in this central area where finding a spot can be a nightmare. Even if you’re not driving, knowing you could grab a taxi or ride-share right from the building makes a difference. The subway access means you can reach Gyeongbokgung Palace, Hongdae, or Gangnam without the usual Seoul transit headaches. I found myself using the location as a base to explore different neighborhoods each day.

Why Guests Love It

What really works here is the combination of central location and residential comfort — you’re not stuck in a tiny hotel box, but you’re also not sacrificing access to everything Seoul offers. The recent guest ratings (9.6 for location) aren’t just numbers — they reflect what happens when a place actually delivers on its promises. It’s particularly great for couples or anyone planning a longer stay who wants to feel settled rather than just passing through. The Namsan area gives you that perfect balance of urban energy and actual breathing room, which is honestly harder to find in Seoul than you’d expect.

Seoul’s apartments offer modern accommodations with contemporary design, perfect for families wanting to experience daily life in this technologically advanced Korean metropolis.

  This is a really good place to stay in Seoul. The apartment is very comfortable, cozy, offering a really good view and with everything needed. The location is also quite enjoyable in the middle of Seoul, in Euljiro and numbers of restaurants. I recommend this place to stay to have an unforgettable trip in Seoul.
