New, 리모델링, 홍대입구역 도보 7분, 방2, 퀸침대3, AREX, 외국인 전용, SONG Stay Overview
First Impressions
Walking into New, 리모델링, 홍대입구역 도보 7분, 방2, 퀸침대3, AREX, 외국인 전용, SONG Stay feels like discovering a well-kept secret in Seoul. The name basically tells you everything — it’s newly remodeled, seven minutes from Hongik University Station, and honestly, that’s pretty much spot-on. This three-star place doesn’t try to be something it’s not, but what it does, it does really well.
Location & Getting Around
You know what I love about this spot? It’s in Yeonnam-dong, which is sort of like Hongdae’s quieter, more sophisticated cousin. The seven-minute walk to Hongik University Station is actually pleasant — you’ll pass some great little cafes and shops along the way. The AREX connection mentioned in the name is clutch if you’re coming from Incheon Airport; you can get here without dealing with multiple transfers. Couples really seem to get this location (the feedback backs this up), and I can see why — it’s close enough to the action but far enough away that you’re not dealing with drunk college kids at 3 AM.
The Space
This is basically a two-bedroom apartment setup with three queen beds, which sounds weird until you see it. The remodeling job is fresh — everything feels clean and modern without being sterile. The room layout actually works well for small groups or families, though it’s designed specifically for international guests. I mean, the whole “외국인 전용” (foreigners only) thing might seem limiting, but it creates this interesting international vibe where you’re likely to meet travelers from all over.
What Makes It Special
The 10-rating score isn’t just luck — this place gets the details right. The beds are actually comfortable (not always a given in Seoul), and there’s enough space that you don’t feel like you’re living on top of each other. The recent guests rated the location 8.7, which honestly feels conservative to me. You’re walking distance to some of Seoul’s best nightlife, but also close to Hongdae Park where locals go to chill during the day. The kitchen setup lets you grab groceries from the nearby markets and actually cook something, which saves money and gives you a more local experience.
Why Guests Love It
What really sets this place apart is how it balances accessibility with authenticity. You’re not staying in some tourist bubble — Yeonnam-dong has real character, with independent bookstores, vinyl shops, and those tiny Korean BBQ joints where the ajumma remembers your order. The SONG Stay management seems to actually care about the guest experience, and the international focus means they understand what foreign travelers need (like decent WiFi and clear directions in English). For couples especially, there’s something romantic about having your own little Seoul apartment base while still being close to everything that makes this city exciting.
Hotels in Seoul offer visitors the opportunity to stay in the heart of this metropolitan hub, with easy access to world-class shopping, traditional markets, and vibrant nightlife districts.
