The hotel’s strategic position in Jung-gu places guests in one of Seoul’s most historically significant and centrally located districts, offering easy access to both traditional cultural landmarks and modern urban attractions.

Star Guest House combines the intimacy of a guesthouse with the conveniences expected of a quality 3-star establishment. The hotel’s location in Jung-gu district places guests within walking distance of iconic Seoul landmarks including Myeongdong shopping district, a paradise for fashion enthusiasts and cosmetics lovers, and the historic Deoksugung Palace, where traditional Korean architecture stands in striking contrast to the surrounding modern cityscape.

Business travelers appreciate the hotel’s proximity to Seoul’s financial district, while leisure visitors value the easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment options that showcase the best of Korean culture. Whether you’re visiting Seoul for its rich historical heritage, vibrant shopping scenes, renowned culinary experiences, or dynamic nightlife, Star Guest House provides a well-situated, comfortable, and reasonably priced accommodation option that helps make your Korean adventure both convenient and memorable.

Reviews

  • Luckey from Australia (8/10)

    Near the train station, close to convenience store and restaurants including shopping stores.

  • Sharlene from Singapore (8/10)

    Accoms lady doesn't really speak english but she is really really nice! Room is small (m2 is accurate) but just nice, cozy even. Might have to move around certain furniture to accommodate space for big luggage. Size of toilet is decent. Extremely convenient to get to city hall station and airport limousine bus stop from here. Many eateries nearby. I would recommend this to short stay solo travellers who just want a simple room that fulfils basic needs.

  • Wanjugu from Kenya (6/10)

    The location is wonderful. Easy to reach via train, bus and especially if using the airport bus it is excellent. There are a lot of food options around the area too. There is coffee, tea available all day in the kitchen and it is possible to make your own meals if necessary.

    Well situated in Seoul city centre. Good for the price.

  • Anna from Canada (7/10)

    Check-in was really easy as it was self-check-in. The space was pretty clean. Amenities were available. The location is around a bunch of restaurants and bars. Not to far way from Seoul station and the main palace.
