Rating Details

8.8 Excellent 391개 리뷰

Namsan Story Nine, a 3-star guesthouse, is a 15-minute walk from Myeongdong Station. High intent to revisit and generous water provision. However, there is a steep slope to navigate. Close to Namdaemun Market, N Seoul Tower, and Myeongdong Street, making it suitable for independent travelers in Seoul.
