The Recenz Dongdaemun Hotel Reviews

I chose this hotel for its convenient location near KSPO. It's also just a short walk to the subway station, with plenty of dining choices in the vicinity. The room itself was quite spacious, and there are convenience stores readily available. The only downside is that there isn't much in terms of attractions or shopping nearby, but it was a decent stay nevertheless.

Didnt like how the hotel didnt have an ice machine, not even the restaurant at the hotel will give us ice. Also, at checked in, front desk was giving us a hard time because they were asking for IDs or passports of our kids(1,3,7) which was never an issue from our precious experiences at different hotels. I informed staff that husband was military stationed in korea and that we live 2hrs away from the area. Staff wasn't friendly.

Not so convenient for shopping and food . Transportation ok . Air con got cut off and will interrupt the sleep . In between must on again if the temperature is cold , Don’t like it .

As a retired TV reporter, I have stayed at countless hotels, but this was my first time being asked to pay an hourly fee (about $10 per hour) just to check in before 3 p.m. I arrived around 1:30 p.m., and the receptionist politely informed me that a few rooms were already cleaned, but I could not enter one unless I paid extra. When I expressed my surprise and explained how unusual (and unwelcoming) this policy felt, she looked genuinely sorry — clearly it wasn’t her fault, just the management’s rule. Which leads me to wonder: perhaps the hotel has discovered a new side business, renting out rooms by the hour for… let’s just say “short-term visitors.” If that’s the case, I’ll definitely be checking the bed sheets extra carefully. In the end, the staff were kind, but the management’s policy was ridiculous. If you want a laugh and don’t mind feeling like you’ve accidentally booked a room in an hourly motel, this might be the place for you. Otherwise, proceed with caution.

Value for money. Cosy. Clean. Nice local environment. Safe environment. New to the train station.

Good for solo traveller. The Noise seperation is quite good and the location is convenient that you can walk to the metro station in 5 minutes. 

Thank you so much for a very affordable room to stay. I am hoping that there is a free toothbrush, toothpaste and a microwave inside the room. Tip for foreigner’s : - The Recenz Hotel (english) - Do Risyeoncho Hotel (korean pronounciation)
