Seoul was really just a transfer hub on the map for me until I decided to take a 24-hour layover just to get a taste of the city. I chose Doulos Hotel to crash based on the reviews, and it was a great find... once I found it. PROS: The value for the price was great, considering the price difference... More

We didn't realise how lucky we were to stay at the Doulos until after checking-in and starting to explore Seoul that we realised what a fabulous little gem of a hotel the Doulos was. The hotel is hidden away from the main streets, and so it is always peaceful, the staff were consistently polite and efficient. The hotel presents as... More

If you are looking for a place just to rest after a long day, this hotel is perfect for you. Rooms are pretty small (we got a deluxe - which is tiny; and a twin/double room - which is more manageable) but clean. Great Location.. it is near the tourist sites like the gyeongbukgung palace, the stream and a few... More

The one thing that is great about Doulos Hotel is its location. Tucked away in a little alley off the main drag near Jongno Sam Ga metro station, it is walking distance from some lively areas of downtown Seoul, such as Insadong or the nicely landscaped Cheonggyecheon creek. What makes Doulos the hotel of choice in this central area is... More

We stayed here in October on a stopover en route from Japan and it was perfect. I would advise guests to print out the detailed directions given by other reviewers before you go if you do stay as we did and would definately have struggled without it. It is just a few minutes walk from the airport bus stop and... More

It is a boutique type hotel with nice furniture, very clean, and very confortable. Once you find it, it is well located. When you get off the 6002 bus from Incheon airport you will see a small pharmacy with a green cross on top of the door. Take the small alley next to it and you will find the hotel... More

i loved staying at Doulos Hotel. the location is very convenient. a 3 minute walk from the airport bus station so dragging the luggage my luggage wasn't a problem. same 3 minutes to go to the subway which takes you everywhere because their subway system is great and easily navigated. Doulos is walking distance from some of the main attractions... More

Rooms are small but very modern and very clean. Staff is extremely friendly. Location is great for seeing the sites even if it is hard to find at first.
