10/10 Exceptional

The staff was wonderful! The location is also at a great and convenient spot, near the bus station. It is also walking distance from a shopping/cafe street, museums, and parks.

Easy access to buses and downtown sights. No sidewalks, gambling and clubs around but hotel itself was quiet and wellmana

Central hotel with breakfast

A nice boutique hotel close to Gyeongju bus terminal, easy to go on day tours. Breakfast included which was nice. Our room was clean and nicely decorated. We loved the bath tub! There were only 4 small towels in the room, no bath towels. Maybe it was a mistake, we don’t know. My partner found the sheets a bit plastic which made him feel hot at night. The staff didn’t speak English and one of the guys didnt answer or even look at us when ”interacting” with us, that felt quite rude.

Good value and convenient

Located very close to the intercity and local bus terminals and walkable to the start of the tomb area and Hancock village. The area was populated with motels, small restaurants, pc bangs and hostess bars - but hardly the red light district as others have suggested. We felt very safe and it was quiet at night. The hotel had a 1970s vibe with dark devour in the corridors but the room was brightly lit, huge and included a pc, clothes steamer and huge TV. There wasn't a plug for the jacuzzi bath and we weren't there long enough to request one so don't know if it worked. Breakfast was basic but filling - bread, fruit, yoghurt, salad, fries, sausage and scrambled egg. BHC opposite and plenty of nearby convenience stores nearby.

8/10 Very good

Hotel was older style but clean. It’s near the bus station so easy to arrive from the KTX or by bus, but needed to walk 10-15 min for any nicer restaurants. They offered free use of laundry machines which was appreciated on a long trip! Breakfast was good (eggs, toast, salad, yogurt, fruit), but we had to pick a time slot to eat the day before which didn’t allow for flexibility. This was fine for us but something to note. All the towels in the room were small hand towels - larger towels for showering were not offered, nor were robes. Again not a big problem, just something to note as unusual for a Westerner. :)

청소상태 괜찮았습니다. 스타일러 있어서 편했네요. 조식은 기대하지 마세요.. 조식 직원은 친절합니다. 주차장이 있는데 좁으니 늦게가시면 좀 힘들수 있습니다

Thought hot-spa in the bathtub worked but did not. Breakfast provide every morning at no charge during staying that hotel. Nothing special here. Bus transportation is somewhat messed up with google map sometimes. Not updated google map. Nice landmarks or history to see day and night especially hot day.

YANG HEE, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Il n'y avait personne à l'accueil quand nous sommes arrivés mais nous n'avons dû attendre que 5 minutes. Nous avons demandé à laisser nos bagages à la bagagerie ( puisque celle ci est mentionnée dans le descriptif de l'hôtel ) et nous avons été très surpris qu'on nous dise de laisser nos sacs et valises dans le hall d'entrée, à 5 m de la porte d'entrée grande ouverte ( d'autant que les bagages ne sont pas toujours sous surveillance puisque la réception est parfois vide ) ; cela ne nous a guère rassurés mais nous n'avions pas d'autre choix. La chambre était convenable, la baignoire avait une petite fuite au niveau du robinet. La salle du petit déjeuner est petite, le buffet est très limité. Par contre, un point positif : la situation de l'hôtel, à 3 minutes à pied de la gare routière et à 15 minutes du parc des tumuli.

Séjour agréable malgré un petit déjeuner sommaire et peu varié. Le personnel à la réception devrait être plus aimable et serviable.

관리 상태가 매우 좋지 않고 고객 응대도 부족함. 가격 외 장점이 거의 없는 숙소임.

Busca otro hotel en Gyeongju

El hotel es antiguo y decadente. El primer día ya dejó de funcionar una de las luces. Mala insonorización. Alcachofa de la ducha con resto de óxido. Desayuno escaso. Personal de recepción poco educado. El precio por 3 noches 865.998W desorbitado. En el lado positivo ubicación buena, cercana a estación de bus y habitación amplia.

The owner allowed us to check in earlier. The bed was large and comfortable. Breakfast was nice with great coffee. A short walk to bus station and Daeruengwon.

10/10 Exceptional

Great location near the bus station and busses 10,11,700 which will take you to the temples outside of town. Only 10–15 walk to the center of town. The neighborhood is going through a major overhaul with lots new hotels. Previous reviewers mentioned gambling halls and such, but these all appear to be closed down for some time. The neighborhood was safe. The room itself was cozy, modern, and spacious. To breakfast, although the same for the 2 days I was there, was also good. Highly recommend!

Good breakfast provided

4th time staying here. Convenient location just 3 min from intercity express bus terminal n local bus terminal. 20-30 min walk to the main tourist spots-大陵苑etc. Most love the breakfast provided-sausages, egg, toast, salad, fruit n drinks. However, it seems the price has gone up quite a lot. Quite expensive this time.

素早い対応

今回が4度目の滞在。バスターミナルからも近いし食堂もたくさんあって便利。朝食もよい。ただし、今回は初日に洗面台とバスルームの水漏れとトイレのウオッシュレットが作動しなかったので、部屋を変えてくださった。早い対応ありがとうございました。ホテルのスタッフの方は皆笑顔で優しく対応してくださった。
