Top 10 BEST SEOUL HOSTELS



Most of our readers who have never been to South Korea mistakenly think that Seoul is an expensive destination. And when we ask them why they make that assumption, many of them point to Seoul’s reputation as a futuristic metropolis and the glossiness of the K-pop culture. Some even bundle Seoul with the cities of its neighbor to the east, Japan, which are notorious for being way pricier than most Asian cities.

But the truth is, Seoul isn’t as expensive as most people think. And its being more affordable than many major Asian cities *cough* Singapore *cough* Tokyo *cough* is evident in the wide array of pocket-friendly lodging options. Travelers who value their privacy have a lot of budget hotels to choose from, and backpackers can pick from a rich selection of hostels!

Staying at a hostel in Seoul is an experience to remember on its own. Most foster a youthful atmosphere and have a quirky vibe. Here are ten of the best hostels in the South Korean capital as rated by online users (as of Feb 2017).
