Apparently there are 3 Travelodge hotels in Seoul; one located at City Hall, one located at Euljiro 3-ga and one located at Dongdaemun. 

The reason I choose the Travelodge Myeongdong Euljiro is because I am more familiar with Euljiro 3- ga area, which I thought prob makes me more convenient to move around in Seoul.

Also, I checked on google, this area is surrounded with many local restaurants and cafes, and very close to Myeongdong shopping area with walking distance.

So, without a second thought, I straight booked this hotel with the last big triple room they have available. :)

The Location

We traveled from Incheon airport to the hotel by airport limousine, number 6015 which costs us KRW17,000 each person.

Waited the airport limousine for about 10-15 mins, next took about 1 hour (I can't really remember that) to stop at "Pine Avenue" at Euljiro 2-ga, then took 3 mins to walk to the hotel.

It's super convenient! 

What I can say about its location...the hotel is easily connected to many places because it is situated very close to Euljiro 3-ga subway station, only 1-2 mins walk from the hotel (just around the corner of the hotel).

And one good thing about this Euljiro 3-ga station is, it is directly connected (without any interchange stations) to some popular places, such as Hongik, Gangnam, Ewha Woman Uni, Dongdaemun History and Culture Park etc.

We indeed find this underground station really safe us from walking under the cold weather, where we can easily access to Myeondong Shopping Street and also Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP).

Hotel Surrounding

We enjoyed the surroundings very much, not only it is located super near to the subway, the surroundings also very nice and friendly (not so tourist place). 

There are many local restaurants and cafes around the hotel where you can enjoy a wide variety of authentic Korean dishes. 

We spent one night dinner at one of the local restaurants here eating some beef dishes; assorted boiled meat slices, and beef tripe and intestine soup. 

I will share another food post in Seoul with you guys, so stay tuned ya! :)

And there is one super nice authentic Korean restaurant that I highly recommend you to try if you stay at Travelodge Myeongdong Euljiro.

They served very nice seafood pancake, bibimbap, bean sprout soup and homemade Makgeolli.

We aet there twice, so it's MUST try!

Located just next to the hotel, morning coffee at Side by Side cafe.

There is a CU convenient store right opposite the hotel.

It is not a very big store, but they have most of the things we needed; for instance, instant noodles and beers for our supper and also instant porridge, milk, yogurt for our breakfast. :)

Well, you can also find a 7-11 store located on the left side of the road as well.

An outdoor seating area outside the hotel.

I like sitting there alone after dinner time, drinking soju and watching people walking around here. 

The Lobby & Receptionist

The staffs are very nice, friendly, and always very helpful.

Some of them speak very good English that able to assist in most of our requests.

They provided us luggage storage upon our early arrival, and also helped us to book the taxi on our last day as we had an early flight at 735 in the morning, where we need to get to the airport at 4am from the hotel. 

Beautiful Christmas decorations at the receptionist. :)

The hotel also provides a seating area, phone charging station, and also computer service at the lobby area. 

The Friends and Family Triple Bedroom

Let's move on to the bedroom.

Since we were traveling in a group of 3, so we booked the biggest room, friends and family triple bedroom that comes with a twin bed, and a single bed in 1 room.

The room is pretty large enough for the 3 of us.

The room is fully carpeted and provides all the basic needs; room slippers, safety box, clothes rack etc.

Everything is clean, and the beds are soft and comfortable.

For myself, I would think that it would be better if the hotel can provide 2 pillows per bed because the pillow is kinda too soft. :)

We enjoyed one of the channel, OCN they provided, with tons of good international and Korean movies that have entertained us during our stay. 

Don't forget that there is also complimentary wireless Internet access is available to keep you connected 24 hours too! 

The bathroom comes with separate rain shower and separate toilet room, easier for us to move easily.

There are some basic amenities offered by the bathroom, such as face towels, towels, hairdryer, shampoo, shower gel, etc.

However, me and my friends thought it would be good to have the towel rack installed inside the shower room instead of the toilet room for our conveniences. :)

Anyway, we all enjoyed the strong pressured shower so much, and also the heater worked very well that met all our expectations.

Also, thanks for helping us to change the towels everyday. :)

Stella said she enjoyed this electric bidet toilet seat every morning. #haha

There is also a minibar with refrigerator, and also daily complimentary water, instant coffee (my fav Ediya coffee in Korea) inside the room. 

Other Facilities

My friend, Stella once asked for some disposable tableware for taking the breakfast in our room, and the staffs were helpful and happy to helped her out.
