All rooms in the capsule hotel are fitted with a kettle. At Cony house rooms are equipped with bed linen and towels.

The location was great. It is near a university so it has the perfect balance of shops, cafes, restaurants and transportation services. The room was at best 3m x 3m (probably smaller) and designed just for you to sleep and shower. A separate communal kitchen was available with appliances and complimentary utensils and cup noodles. The room had the bare basics like bedding, soap and a towel but nothing much else. Overall, the stay was great for a backpacking trip.

Looking for a capsule hotel?

Developed in Japan, these cheap 'pod' hotels are a novelty for any traveller. With rows of small single bed enclosed capsules, accommodation is basic and intended to be overnight. There is separate storage for luggage and gender-separate communal bathrooms — some capsule hotels also have a sentō, a Japanese bath house, often for male guests only.

    Great hotel conveniently located in the same building as TimeSquare shopping center and 3 mins walk from Incheon airport bus 6007 (about 50,000won by taxi) and subway station. Staff is friendly and courteous and even gave us free breakfast for our kid. Room itself is clean and tidy albeit decently sized comparing with similar hotels. I wish there were complimentary bottled waters but they are cheap and easy to get from near by convenience stores so no big deal. The buffet breakfast is decent with a good mix of Western and Asian options too.

    Location was fantastic, and the budget was great for one person. The cafe downstairs was super convenient and there was plenty of space if you would like to work remotely. The staff WERE INCREDIBLY FRIENDLY!! They were super kind and went above and beyond in making sure I was being taken care of, their recommendations were fantastic and they insisted I take one of their umbrellas when it was raining. Felt very safe as a solo female traveller.

    The metro is just steps away from the hotel super convenient take exit 4 from DDP and you will see the hotel, and there are several convenience stores nearby. They change your towel every day, so there's no need to bring your own. staff was very friendly. The free breakfast was nice, but note that it’s korean style however, there’s also bread available if you prefer something else. you can wash your laundry downstairs and you can buy the detergent from the vending machine it cost 500krw washing machine(1000krw) and dryer cost(1000krw)

    So comfortable. Such a great set up, spacious, private and convenient. Amazing value for money. The staff were all very friendly and very very helpful. The bar downstairs is very cheap and full of people from all around the world every night so great vibe (but it’s not too loud in the rooms don’t worry). Great location less than 5 mins walk from train stations or 10 mins to main Hongdae strip.

    Location right in the heart of myeondong. 5 min walk to subway. Shopping, restaurants, money exchange, on your doorsteps. Use naver maps and you walk to the Palace comfortably from there. The night was so much fun, street food stalls everywhere. In the subway station there are loads of more budget friendly clothes shops, nice stylish winter coats. I wished I'd notice earlier. Cheaper than on the streets. In all this small hotel had all I needed for my stay.

    On a budget? This place is perfect! Conveniently located near the metro and shopping area. The host is also friendly and helpful. Surely, this would be my first choice if I returned to Hongdae.

    Everything was very clean. The Capsules were cozy and I slept well. Staff is very friendly. The showers were clean and everything while minimalist worked just fine. Maybe the best place in Seoul if you're on a budget. Might be different for tall and big people though. I'm relatively small so I did feel comfortable in the Pod
