The hotel was conveniently located as the airport limousine bus stop was only a 30 second walk, the subway right in front of the entrance, and restaurants surrounding the hotel. The room was very spacious and the kids enjoyed the playroom. Best of all, the staff were friendly and helped us so much with figuring out where to eat, how to get to certain places, and simply making our stay welcomed. If you're looking for a lively neighborhood without the congested feeling of myeongdong, Novotel Dongdaemun is the place to stay.
