Star Hostel Insadong

I had a great stay here with my friends. The room is nice, clean, and warm. The host supported us and friendly. He also replied our request about keeping luggage very fast, this made me to feel safely. I found that the location is very nice and convenience because it's near station, around BBQ traditional restaurant, and nice coffee shops. We enjoyed staying here. Just one thing to consider if your suitcase is big and you travel alone, you must handle how to bring up if your room is at high floors.

Worth with money. Room are clean and near to subway, silent place and overall is good. I satisfy. Staff are very helpful. Will come again

The hostel is clean and the staff are so nice. The location is a little bit inside the alley but still easy to find. It's also quite at the night so you can have a nice sleep along your travel. I will recommended to those who want to travel to Korea to stay here. And may be I will stay here again for my next visit to Korea.

The room is clean, the mattress has a heater, the toilet is clean. breakfast is enough, there is bread, jam, tea, coffee and cereal, can cook also in the small kitchen. The location is near to where and close to the Jongno Sam subway station no. Can walk to Bukchon Village, Insadong Alley, Chang Daekgung, Palace, Gyeong Bokgung Palace, Gwanghwamun Square and others. Can be directly from inchoon here. But the location is not on the main road, entering a little onto a small road. You must know the owner's phone so you can contact if you stray. It's better if it comes during the day so it's easier to find but there is no elevator, so if you bring an old man, ask on the floor. 1. the location of the hotel is right next to the jongno barbecue center and in the next alley there is a collection of unique and cute restaurant restaurants that are funny and cool. One thing that is very disappointing is inaccurate info.

Our family stay here while vacationing in Seoul was very great indeed. It's location is just very near the palaces and shrines which is very convenient. We were grateful to Thomas who works here for showing us the direction by accompanying us in our way there. The place smells good that is welcoming once you get in. The room is very clean especially the bathroom which has also a big space. Towels, body wash, shampoo, soap and toilet paper are already provided by them. One can relax when sleeping since the place is very quiet and private where we stayed which is at the third floor. Restaurants are lining up just nearby wherein they are friendly and nice giving us extra side dishes. Grateful to Kevin who owns the place for helping us with our needs especially lending us a pocket wifi and providing us an airport shuttle. Money changer and atms are just across the place. It is indeed a great place to stay!

Spacious, clean, comfortable. I will stay again soon ^^

This hostel is worth than 2 stars facility, it’s as comfy as a 3 stars budget hotel chain. Kevin, the host, allowed me to do early check in and he upgraded my room. He’s kind, friendly, helpful in making sure his guests’ stay pleasantly. The location is strategic, less than 10 minutes walk to Jongno 3 (sam)-ga Station which connects three subway lines in Seoul, close to 7-Eleven, and at night it’s packed with food stalls that serves Korean delicacies. I had pleasant stay for 4 nights, fast wifi, proper breakfast with bread, cereal, coffee or tea, you can use the kitchen too.

Hotel is located at a very ideal location. Food all around and the train station a 1-2 minute walk away. If you go out at night, there will be stalls lining the road outside the accommodation. I took the double bedroom and it has everything that I needed for my stay. One thing to note is the rooms are just large enough to open a medium/big luggage on the floor. Bathroom has a good strong shower with constant heating. Towels can be exchanged to clean ones which are left on drawers on the stair landings. Basic breakfast is provided which consist of toast, butter, jam, milk and cereals. Kevin is proficient in English and will be able to answer any inquiries you would have. If you have allergies, keep in mind the accommodation houses 2 cats! They do not go to the rooms but they hang around the entrance most of the time. Overall, I would definitely choose this place again because the value is just unbeatable.

The owner Kevin and his parents were very very kind. They were very accommodating. They even lend us the rice cooker and adapters for free. They serve cereals, bread and eggs, coffee and tea for a light breakfast. Ice is readily available. So, if you are traveling with a family, you can cook foods in their kitchen with no additional cost. It's clean though you need to ask the owners for a change of towels and housekeeping. The hostel and its neighboring area is so alive at night. You can see authentic Korean foods, streetfoods around the corner, and several alleys that will move your eyes on different cafes, small shops and various themed restaurants. And its very near the subway connecting to three major lines in Metro Seoul. This place is such a good value. We'll definitely stay here when I come back. 👍👍👍

The owner is very kind. The location is very near the restaurants and the train station. Room is kept tidy and clean. Breakfast is always available at the common kitchen. Highly recommend!

Very comfortable! Though we kinda bit lost on our first night going here at the hostel but overall it was awesome and it is very convenient (lot of food stalls near the hostel)

Clean and affordable rooms, accommodating owners, and accessible to famous tourist spots. What more can you ask for? Highly recommended!

though i didn't meet kevin, he's much accommodating than the hotel i went into the next day.. thanks for having us for a night.. :)

It feels like hotel, and the owner is so kind

The location is very good if you choose right exit of Jongno 3 ga subway station. (Exit 6 is just 50 meter away). Staff (Kevin, his mom, 02 cats) are very nice and helpful. Room is clean. There are many local food stalls around the hostel where you can enjoy genuine Korean food amongst Korean people.
