"Best for its location. 20 min walk to Dongdaemun, 15 min walk to Myong Dong or Nandaemun. 5 min walk to the nearest Subway (Jong-Sam Ga), which will take only 2 or 3 stops to get to all the shopping areas listed above.
However, it is hidden in the back alley which can get quite dark in the night. In addition, not many taxi drivers will know of this hotel as it is a relatively new hotel.
Service staff speaks minimal English, but sufficient to get by.
All in all a good and cheap hotel!" - Wee Khoon Ng
"Spent 6 nights at the Doulos hotel, my first time in Seoul. Maps were very helpful in finding the hotel, it is located through some alleys but is less than 1 minute walk to the subway station. Staff were very helpful and friendly, with most of them having a strong command of English. A very convenient location, one block over is a bunch of shops, bars, night markets and restaurants. Rooms are small, but they are modern and maintained well. Free internet which is a nice bonus. The breakfast included is served in the theatre room which is a little weird, but they do have a decent spread including: toast, cereal, fruit, salad, pastries, juices, sausages, boiled eggs, tea and coffee. Only negative is that it's only from 7am - 9am. There's always a staff member at reception 24 hours a day, Phoebe in particular was very helpful and friendly.
Would definitely stay with them again." - Paul Young
"Strongly recommended.
Having arrived after dark we were initially concerned with the location, as we took the direct route through dark, narrow alleys. Within a few days, however, we found it to be much less scary than our first impression – especially in the daytime. Typical of the tourist experience of South Korea, we never felt at risk on the streets (or alleys) of Seoul.
We knew in advance that the rooms were small, yet it was still a bit of a shock. We would still recommend the Doulos as the location, cleanliness, coin-operated laundry, and service make the inconvenience acceptable.
The included continental breakfast was a bit better than expected, however, it did lack somewhat in terms of variety. This is not too surprising, as there didn't seem to be room for a comprehensive kitchen.
A final word about the staff: we found them to be very polite, respectful, and helpful. Some were less practiced in English, but they always managed to satisfy our requests." - Alastair Kent Dunbar
"One of the most pleasant business hotels I have stayed in. Excellent value." - ANTHONY HOGG
