Seoul Station cozy studio Overview

I’ll be honest – when I first heard about Seoul Station cozy studio, I was a bit skeptical about staying so close to the main train station. You know how station areas can be, right? But this place actually surprised me in the best way possible. The moment you step inside, there’s this immediate sense of calm that’s pretty remarkable considering you’re literally minutes from one of Seoul‘s busiest transportation hubs. The studio lives up to its name too – it’s genuinely cozy without feeling cramped, which is honestly a rare find in this city where space comes at such a premium.

What really won me over was how thoughtfully everything’s laid out. The owner clearly gets what travelers actually need – there’s proper counter space in the kitchenette (not just a tiny corner like some places), decent storage that doesn’t require Tetris skills to use, and the bed is positioned so you’re not staring directly at the front door when you’re trying to sleep. I mean, these might sound like small things, but after you’ve stayed in enough Seoul accommodations, you start to appreciate when someone actually thinks these details through. The soundproofing is surprisingly good too – I was expecting train announcements and constant foot traffic noise, but honestly, I slept better here than at some places in supposedly quieter neighborhoods.

The location is where this place really shines, though most people don’t realize it at first. Sure, being near Seoul Station means easy airport connections and subway access to literally anywhere in the city, but there’s more to it than that. The area has this interesting mix of old-school Korean spots and newer cafes that cater to the constant stream of travelers passing through. I found this incredible 24-hour jjigae place just two blocks away that became my go-to for late-night meals, and there’s a convenience store practically next door that stocks way better snacks than the tourist-focused ones in Myeongdong. Plus – and this is something I didn’t expect – the morning energy around here is fantastic. There’s something energizing about being part of Seoul’s daily rhythm of people heading off to work or catching trains to other cities. The 4-star rating feels about right for this place, and that 7.9 guest score makes sense too – it’s solidly good without trying to be something it’s not. If you’re looking for a genuine Seoul experience rather than a sanitized hotel bubble, and you appreciate being connected to the city’s pulse, this studio delivers exactly what it promises.

Travelers should reserve a hotel in Seoul at least two months ahead for major events like K-pop concerts and cultural festivals, ensuring the best rates and prime locations near popular attractions.

Reviews of Seoul Station cozy studio

  • Mor from Israel (1/10)

    Very close to Seoul station, which makes it easy to get anywhere, but there are better areas in Seoul.

  • Livia from Indonesia (8/10)

    I like the location as it is right in front of seoul station. Commute is so convenience, especially when coming from and going to airport. Check in is easy. Room is as pictured.

  • Poh from Australia (8/10)

    Close to Seoul Train Station.
    Really cozy and much suited for a couple or a family of 3. The washing machine is a huge plus.

    Good location

  • Lucy from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Very convenient location for a weekend stay. Was so cozy and comfortable for a group of 3 exploring Seoul! I arrived a little early and the host allowed me to check in early once they’d finished cleaning which I was so grateful for as I had heavy luggage.

  • 나나 from Japan (8/10)

    ほぼ全部設備が揃っていてYouTubeがみれて、ドライヤーも強くてよかったです。景色も良かった日当たりが良かった

  • Rich from France (7/10)

    Excellent emplacement, au centre de Séoul, très proche (5mn à pied) de Seoul Station sur la ligne 1, ce qui permet d'accéder aux points d'intérêts de la ville en 30minutes maximum. Il y a également un Lotte Mall ce qui est pratique pour faire les courses. Immeuble très calme et facile d'accès.

    Il y a un lave linge et une petite cuisine, c'est pratique.
