We discover the hostel from a blogger that we followed. We decided to booked the hostel since upon checking it was nice and comfortable. The staff and owner are very kind and accommodating we never had a hard time communication since they know how to speak in English. The location is near the tourist spots and subway. They also offer free breakfast so it’s really worth the money that you’ve paid for. I really love the whole vacation we had in Seoul and I would recommend the hostel to my friends and family. Surely for my next visit I will check in again at Hostel Tommy.

At Hostel Tommy, it feels like it's my 2nd home. Spending our vacation for a week is very worth it. Tommy is a very accommodating and cool owner of the hostel. He was able to join us for a breakfast and telling us for the places we can possibly go by foot. The place is accessible to all means of transportation and near to some tourist destinations. Highly recommended for all ages. To all the staff and crew, two thumbs you guys especially to Tommy. Two thumbs up and keep up the good job.

Nice hostel close to several of the palaces and popular locations. Near metro, so easy to get to other places. I had a small single room which was adequate, except it was difficult to use the shower. Room amenities were fine, bed was comfortable, pillow was great, room was heated and window could be opened for (very) fresh air (6C). Good, adequately kitted out common area. Free breakfast limited to cocpops, cornflakes, bread, condiments, juice, tea (no black tea) and coffee. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
My only suggestion is that when someone turns up early that they give some priority to getting their room ready first, especially when it is a cold and wet day outside. I knew and understood that their checkin time was 4pm, however a little bit of consideration for those arriving early would have made this place perfect (I actually didn’t get my room until shortly after 4pm).

All the staff were very nice & very helpful even though , except the CEO, others were not fluent in English. Our flight arrived late and we reached Hostel Tommy at 1 am. Had no toruble with self check-in. It is quiet a place, just a 5-6 minutes walk from Jongno 3-ga subway station and 15 - 20 minutes walking distance to palaces. There is a 7-11 on ground floor of this building several eating places near the subway station. Breakfast is simple cereals & toast . But you can use the microwave and dining / common area throught the day.
The only discordant note was about room cleaning. It was mentioned that it would be done every third day. We stayed for four days. Our room was not cleaned. Since we could get fresh towels from reception ( and leave the old ones there) it was not a big deal for us. But would have been nice. We do look forward to staying here on our future visit.

Tommy and Nicholas were so friendly and made us feel so welcome! They went out of their way to be helpful and gave us loads of good tips for our trip. In fact we tried to book again on our way back but it was booked out. Highly recommended, really great location to walk around, eat and enjoy Seoul! Thank you!

This hostel was very ideally located for visiting many places, including Jongmyo shrine and Insa-dong. It is also fairly close to the Jongno 3-ga subway station, so transportation is easy. The rooms were very clean, and I enjoyed having a private bathroom.
