Hotel Ibis Ambassador Myeongdong, Seoul

Location is the best

None

So close to myeongdong market and very easy to go around seoul with a subway station nearby. Staff were also very helpful and nice.

Central location, perfect for exploring the vibrant Myeongdong shopping district, everything is within walking distance. The hotel offers good value for money and reliable standards, as you would expect from the Ibis brand. Rooms were clean, functional, and equipped with all essentials needed for a short city break. Despite the compact size, the quiet and efficient air conditioning made the stay comfortable.

The room and bathroom were very small, barely enough space for luggage and personal belongings. The bathroom, in particular, felt quite cramped. Still, both were adequate for the basics as expected from a three-star hotel. We booked for two adults and a child, and although the hotel was aware of this, there was only enough linen for two people. A third towel and pillow for our child would have been expected, especially since our booking included him. We did not try the breakfast, so can't comment on the food. One source of frustration was the similar branding and naming on Google Maps: there is both an Ibis Ambassador Myeongdong and an Ibis Styles Ambassador Myeongdong just a few blocks apart. The names are too alike, causing confusion with Uber and navigation—clearer differentiation would help avoid mix-ups, as the distinctions in "styles" and logo color aren’t always obvious.

Great location, one step from metro and buses and in the center of Myen dong neighborhood.

The location! Airport bus 6015 is pretty much right in front of the property. Street foods & shopping are all right there. Subway and bus stations are all nearby as well. Staff was very nice and accommodating.

Room is a bit smaller than I expected. Bathroom is tiny.

Clean bedsheets, locations

Old room & very dark lights Toilet needs to improve

Location

WiFi too slow

The location was perfect, the room was clean and comfortable, all facilities were easy to access.

There wasn't anything we disliked

Location is excellent

Reception is on the 19th floor with very minimal signage so when you arrive you walk around lost km circles trying to work out where you check in

Great location , great room we had the suite which is big .Fantastic shower heated toilet seat .

Staff have no idea in welcoming, greeting customers, same goes for checking out , nothing other than room and location would give me reason to stay again. Please note this my experience i encountered ! Hopefully yours will differ from mine .

Location, staff, laundry

Nothing really

Very convenient

Nothing

the location was excellent. just a few steps away from myeondong shopping street and opposite lotte department store. Airport limousine Bus in front. the staffs were very helpful.

the hot tub/onsen needs to be booked and only has limited slots available. when we got to use it at 11pm, the tub was dirty with the sides/tiles a bit slimy already. We also encountered a guest who did not follow the rules of showering first before using the hot tub. May be posting more signs in different languages would help. Also cleaning or changing the water would also be useful.

The location is superb. It’s at the center of Myeongdong, which is one of the most popular locations in Seoul for tourists. It is very convenient for hanging out, shopping, street foods etc. Besides, it’s really close to metro station so travelling to the rest of the city is also very easy. Lastly, the room was very spacious and clean, making the hotel very good choice for Price-to-Performance seekers

I STAYED FOR 3 NIGHTS AT THE IBIS MYEONGDONG AND ENJOYED MY STAY. I FOUND THE STAFF VERY HELPFUL AND COURTEOUS, ROOMS SPACIOUS, VERY CLEAN AND LOCATION PERFECT. RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF SHOPPING, NEXT TO THE UNDERGROUND SUBWAY. PARTICULARLY LIKED LUCAS AT THE FRONT DESK . WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND AND STAY THERE AGAIN.

Good breakfast . Excellent location

Having a swimming pool.

Location was great after locating it as the hotel was obscured with the entrance facing a side street.

There was nothing we didn’t like.

Location was fantastic. Staff was helpful, cheerful and very welcoming. Special shout out to Jacob who explained in detail how to get to the destinations we inquired about.

Room was very small. Hardly any place to open your suitcase except on top of your bed. The bed was a bit lumpy.

Everything was great

Connected rooms would be a better option for a family of five booking two rooms

Great location, nice spacious room, nice view

It’s location

It was clean there was a airport bus stop right outside, 2 minutes away from a shopping street that had amazing street food

The bed was so hard it took forever to fall asleep

Central and right next to Limousine bus stop

Cant control air con - it was a bit hot in the room

Location is superb

Toilet is elevated, like fabricated type. But I am OK with it Think not too suited for very old people

It’s a perfect location in Myeongdong. There’s a subway station close by and a bus stop right outside. It’s very walkable to a few attractions like Gwangjang Market. Myeongdong night market is outside the hotel. Two bottles of water were provided daily which helped as staff said the water wasn’t potable.

The room was quite small, especially the bathroom. There weren’t enough hooks to hang clothes or shelf space for toiletries.

Good location. Clean and quiet. Several elevators.

Relative high price.

Location was perfect. Airport bus just beside the hotel. Access to Metro, Street Food, Restaurants and Shopping

Nothing.

Loved the central location in Myeongdong! Parking is available at the hotel and at a cheaper rate. Friendly and accommodating staff. The bed was comfortable and large. The breakfast was enjoyable. The rooms were surprisingly quiet. I did not hear any noise from the adjacent rooms or from outside.

I didn't like that it took a long time for the room to cool and that it felt slightly humid.

Location

It had a bar and restaurant, but it wasn’t open during the time you needed a bar and restaurant to be open. You couldn’t get an afternoon cocktail.

The location!!!

Bit small but still lovely

Excellent location

Pillows were a little flat for me

location good, walking distance to Myeongdong.

Superb staff. Lucas went out of his way to make sure our stay was perfect.

Nothing

Close to every thing, easy to use, clean

Staff was friendly and helpful as always. This was our second time staying here and we've already booked for next year. The location is perfect.

Hotel location is perfect. Shopping, night market, bus , train and airport bus just outside the hotel.

Mattress was uncomfortable , no toothbrush and body lotion provided.

The bidet in our room is not working, called the reception to report about it. They send a maintenance guy to check. They replace with a new unit of bidet for us to use. It took only 15mins to fix. Thank you for your prompt response on this maater [21.Apr.25 / 8:30PM]

We are being charged for the 1-key card that is not returned. [ issued 2nos-keycard] Usually in other IBIS hotel returned 1no-keycard is ok. [ no extra cost]

The staff are all very friendly and helpful :)The location was fantastic! Breakfast was delicious and love the cappuccino :)

Wish there’s more room for luggage space

Very central and perfect location . Clean and very good size room with a sofa and city view. Nice breakfast with lots of of options for persons like us who are vegetarians, vegans

Location

The room was extremely small.

Excellent location in Myeongdong, within minutes you can reach the food market, shops and subway. Hotel staff were helpful and spoken good english. Breakfast was standard for a hotel of this class.

If you book the triple room, then it is a squeeze. No room to really move or sit down at the table provided. Bathrooms are small but functional and clean.

The location

None

Great location Nice room

Air conditioning was central so inside the room sometimes was very hot. Should have some place to hang clothes in toilet. Little hard to find, because the entrance is a lateral area and has other things in the building. Should have a picture of the entrance then would be easier to identify.

The location was right off of myeongdong street market. It was so convenient to shop.

Elevators were a little confusing. 1 didn’t have a room key scanner so you couldn’t go to your floor.

Location

Great location and staff. My only issue is that they turn off the AC at night without your permission.

The location is great, also the staffs are friendly and very helpful.

nothing

Great and strategic location, within walking distance to Myeongdong Street

The location is outstanding. I've tried four different hotels in the area and this one is the best. Metro stations are nearby to take you anywhere around Seoul. You can walk out of the hotel and into the heart of Myeongdong with its vibrant night life, street food, shopping, and entertainment. With all the fantastic street food don't miss the Michelin soup shop named Myeongdong Kyoja for lunch, and an evening on "chicken street" enjoying Korean fried chicken and beer / soju from any one of 7-8 locations side-by-side. Staff was fantastic, rooms quiet and clean, and breakfast had a number of lovely options with the dining room on the 19th floor overlooking Seoul and the Tower. We loved staying here.

The only complaints I have is that our door was very difficult to open. We had to push and pull and push a couple of times to get in the room. And the bathroom is very small. You almost fall into the shower when walking into the bathroom.

Location is excellent. In the center of the shopping district. Subway station is near. Staff were nice and accommodating. Hotel price is reasonable.

Less spacious but okay due to it’s excellent location
