Our stay was a mixed experience, with some clear highlights and some notable disappointments. The good: The location is excellent, easy to walk around, convenient access to public transportation, and simple to get an Uber. It’s close to shopping and the Design Plaza, which was a big plus. The breakfast spread is great, with lots of variety and options. I also really enjoyed the gym and pool facilities, and I had a massage at the spa which I highly recommend. The staff, especially the doormen, were friendly and welcoming. The not-so-good: The property feels old and dated, and the rooms clearly show signs of aging. Our headboard had stains, and the shower had brown stains/mold, which was disappointing for a JW Marriott. We arrived at night and received no assistance with our luggage, despite there being two people at reception. We also tried the buffet dinner one evening, which was underwhelming — cold food and no refills. That said, the duty manager Amy handled the situation well and provided good service once we raised these concerns. Overall, the location and amenities are strong, but the hotel would greatly benefit from a major refresh to truly meet JW Marriott standards. ##### Swathi Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Abul 25 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent!

The attentiveness of staff, service, quality could not have been better. I’m not easily impressed and I’ve had nothing but good things to say. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 10 Nov 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Hotel and the room itself was dated. Much more of a boutique feel than anticipated. Also, too much noise could be heard from outside, despite being in a designated quiet room. The bed was comfortable as expected, but feel that most of its 5 star hotel competitors in Seoul provide much better value and higher quality in every facet ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Flawless from start to finish. My wife and I stayed here as part of our South Korea trip. Although our 2.5 year old wasn’t with us she would have had a wonderful time if she was. Staff were friendly and smiling; from the first doorman that greeted us, to the reception staff, restaurant staff and gym staff. We felt the staff were especially professional and wouldn’t let us lift a finger. The property is clean, modern and impressive. It is connected to the Dongdaemun metro station which makes getting about very easy. The gym is truly outstanding, as is the swimming pool (with a small toddlers pool full of about 100 rubber ducks). We had an executive room with a wonderful gate view which was large and modern. It had lounge access and we felt the food offerings were of a great quality. When I was booking I couldn’t decide between this and the Westin Josun so I booked both. I’m now at the Westin and wish I could go back to the JW Dongdaemun as the Westin is not in the same league. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/BE892F9B2A18A9E4999C759D8B25E4A0F7CBCFF31730557307469.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Four Points by Sheraton Josun, Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Seoul.h59029424.Hotel-Information) > - [Sotetsu Hotels The Splaisir Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Sotetsu-Hotels-The-Splaisir-Seoul-Myeong-Dong.h15528590.Hotel-Information) > - [meomoom](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Daegu-Hotels-Meomoom.h107280854.Hotel-Information) > - [Lavilla Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-LAVILLA-HOTEL.h11665188.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Kukdo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Best-Western-Premier-Hotel-Kukdo.h1639731.Hotel-Information) > - [THE CAPSULE Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-THE-CAPSULE-Myeongdong-Hostel.h35768650.Hotel-Information) > - [UH Suite The Gangnam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-UH-Suite-The-Gangnam.h107571393.Hotel-Information) > - [Cocoa Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Cocoa-Guesthouse.h10465864.Hotel-Information) > - [Incheon Airport Transit Hotel - Terminal 2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Incheon-Hotels-Incheon-Airport-Transit-Hotel.h21592487.Hotel-Information) > - [Lotte Hotel World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Lotte-Hotel-World.h2342.Hotel-Information) > - [L’Escape, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Seoul Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-LEscape.h27247920.Hotel-Information) > - [Localstitch Creator Town Seogyo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Incheon-Hotels-Localstitch-Seogyotown.h96080481.Hotel-Information) > - [WECOSTAY Gangnam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-WECOSTAY-Gangnam.h103830611.Hotel-Information) > - [Felix by STX Hotel & Suite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Busan-Hotels-Felix-Hotel-By-STX.h55025679.Hotel-Information) > - [ANANTI AT GANGNAM](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-ANANTI-AT-GANGNAM.h89524646.Hotel-Information) > - [Handpicked Hotel & Collections](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Handpicked-Hotel-Collections.h13168693.Hotel-Information) > - [L7 MYEONGDONG by LOTTE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-L7-Myeongdong-By-LOTTE.h12511672.Hotel-Information) > - [Starhills Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Hotel-Irene.h4225051.Hotel-Information) > - [ibis Styles Ambassador Incheon Airport T2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Incheon-Hotels-Ibis-Styles-Ambassador-Incheon-Airport.h88264339.Hotel-Information) > - [Sofitel Ambassador Seoul Hotel & Serviced Residences](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Sofitel-Ambassador-Seoul-Hotel.h68892200.Hotel-Information) > - [Staz Hotel Myeongdong 2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-STAZ-Hotel-Myeongdong-II.h9315378.Hotel-Information) > - [UH Suite The Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-UH-Suite-The-Myeongdong.h69729254.Hotel-Information) > - [Naru Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-Naru-Guesthouse.h19153501.Hotel-Information) > - [L7 GANGNAM by LOTTE HOTELS](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-L7-Gangnam-By-LOTTE.h21476755.Hotel-Information) > - [Seoul View Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-SeoulView-Guest-House.h101495128.Hotel-Information) > - [Incheon Airport Transit Hotel - Terminal 1](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Incheon-Hotels-Incheon-Airport-Transit-Hotel.h6282314.Hotel-Information) > - [The Ace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-The-Ace-Hotel.h17363685.Hotel-Information) > - [The Westin Seoul Parnas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-The-Westin-Seoul-Parnas.h424942.Hotel-Information) > - [HOTEL DRIP&DROP, Myeongdong](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seoul-Hotels-HOTEL-DRIPDROP.h106630908.Hotel-Information) ---
