“Top Hotel & Residence, tucked away in Seoul's Jongno district, positions guests well for exploring the nearby Ikseon-dong Hanok Village and Gyeongbokgung Palace. The hotel's studio rooms come equipped with kitchen facilities and even washing machines, unusual for a hotel in this category, but ideal for longer stays or travellers seeking self-sufficiency. I think it's a practical choice for those who prioritize location and independence over full-service amenities.”
