Noble Stay Hotel Hotels in Gwangju

Noble Stay Hotel

"Stayed here 3 nights and 4 days with my family of 3. Two adults and one child. Payment was 248,274 krw online. I had found them on hotels combined but it was redirected to revato for booking. I thought it was a good deal. I also called the hotel to see if my reservation went through since I read reviews after I booked and there were horrible reviews about revato. Confirmed my reservation on the phone and thought everything was good. This site doesn’t charge until the day you check in even though you get confirmation and total about the reservation. The day we checked it, I was charged 258,000 something change and then they wanted another 10,000 because I had my 4 year old. Luckily I had my email confirmation letter and told them I had made the reservation for 2 adults and 1 child and the total was 248, 274. I refused to pay more. Luckily, another staff was there and refunded me and charged me for whatever was on the email. Noone came to clean our room until 4pm on our 2nd day there. The maid came and didn’t clean since we were in the room already but gave us towels. She came the next day to clean the room since we weren’t there. The LG styler was a plus but I used one at another hotel the day before and it was perfect. This one in the room had stains and it smelled a bit of mildew. Also a plus was the air purifier. The bed was a bit hard but it was the least of my worries. The room was clean and good for what we used it for. It was in the area we wanted and close to everything. Breakfast was 10,000 per person and 7,000 per child. We didn’t make it up to the cafeteria so hopefully in the future we do. Overall, I’d still stay here due to the convenience and cleanliness of the place. "

"I booked this place because I had an early morning makeup appointment on Wedding Street the day before my wedding, and I wanted somewhere close by. I loved that it had a separate living room and a bedroom, giving us plenty of space. Having two sinks was a huge plus, allowing us to get ready quickly on a busy morning. I was very satisfied and would definitely stay here again if I visit Gwangju!"

ACC Design Hotel ★★★
"I stayed here on a business trip to Gwangju, and everything was great. However, the hallway leading to my room was very dark. There were several stairs, and they were so dark that it was hard to see. First-time visitors could easily get seriously injured if they made a mistake... The facilities need improvement..."

"The staff were very cute and helpful. The breakfast soup was delicious. The room was spacious and well-cleaned. Amenities were charged extra, and there was only a shower, not a bathtub, but the bed was large and I was able to rest comfortably. It's a bit of a walk to the station, but I'd definitely stay here again if I had the chance."
