About

Seoulite Inn Myeongdong Formerly - Step Inn Myeongdong 2

Seoulite Inn Myeongdong sits on Myeongdong-Gil, roughly a 5-minute walk from the main shopping street. The inn keeps things simple: a shared lounge, a shared kitchen, and a TV room, with 24-hour reception for late arrivals or early departures.

Rooms range from female-only and male-only dorms to single, twin, triple and family doubles. Many rooms are windowless, but all come with air conditioning, heating and a shower. A paid airport shuttle, laundry facilities and luggage storage help take the friction out of a city stay.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Many rooms lack windows — The single, twin and economy twin options are all listed as 'Without Window'. Guests who need natural light or fresh air may want to book a room with a city view instead.
  • No pets allowed — The inn does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • No on-site parking — The property does not list parking as an amenity. Given the dense Myeongdong area, arriving by car may be difficult; the inn does offer a paid airport shuttle.
