4-Star Hotels in Busan

I booked this place over a month in advance, and it has a lovely modern-retro vibe, very cozy. The shower and toilet are separate, and it even comes with a Dyson hairdryer. The room feels different from a typical hotel room. On the ground floor is a coffee shop owned by the same person, which closes at 9 PM. You can use your card to enter and exit through the side door. Upon check-in, you get two complimentary Americanos (you can swap them for other drinks by paying the difference). It's very convenient if you're visiting Yeongdo, though it's a bit far from Gwangalli and Haeundae. Little surprises: 1. Toothpaste, toothbrushes, shower caps, etc., are provided. 2. The mini-fridge drinks and snacks are free. 3. A handwritten note and a creative cultural souvenir are gifted. Amenities: Convenience store: Across from the coffee shop. Shopping: Nampo-dong Walking Street, Lotte Department Store, Olive Young, etc. (10-minute walk). Restaurants: Many dining options nearby, and the owner also provides recommendations – check the check-in guide. Minor regrets: 1. The bed frame has sharp corners, and due to its placement, it's easy to accidentally bump into it. You need to be mindful of your walking path. 2. The separate shower room has no place to put clothes. I booked Room 2 this time; I wonder if other room types have a better layout. This place is very relaxing, perfect for a two-day getaway to clear your mind. The owner is also very enthusiastic. Afterwards, you can switch to another hotel in Haeundae or Gwangalli to enjoy the sea, explore attractions, and go shopping.

The view is absolutely stunning! You can see the highway with the ocean view, plus Gwangandaegyo Bridge! The room was super clean and the bed was comfortable, though the pillows were a bit soft. The location is quite convenient, with OY department store, Shinsegae, and some delicious pork soup restaurants nearby.

We booked two rooms; one had a balcony with a beach view, and the other faced the street, which wasn't too noisy for us. The main advantage is the convenience. There's an alleyway full of food options right across the street, and a famous pork soup rice place directly opposite the hotel that always has a long queue from morning till night. Apparently, it's a popular chain here, and we tried it – it was delicious! The hotel is also just a few steps away from the beach. We took the bus back to Busan because the train station was quite far, but the bus was very convenient. Just wanted to share for anyone considering it 😄

We stayed at this hotel during the BTS concert in Busan, and it was the most budget-friendly option for us. The room was very clean. The bed was comfortable, and the sheets were crisp (which made sleeping even more enjoyable). There's a cafeteria on the 1st floor where you can make instant noodles, grab coffee/water/tea, and they also provided tea and coffee sachets in the room. The room has a TV with Korean channels (something for everyone!) and streaming platforms (Netflix, Disney+, etc., but you'll need to use your own account as they're not paid for). We also liked the hotel's location. It's a 30-40 minute walk to Gwangalli Beach (we didn't try taking the bus).

Booked this hotel for a trip to Busan with my best friend. It's conveniently located right across from Lotte Department Store, making it a one-stop shop for all our shopping needs. We didn't really explore the dining options nearby, though. The room itself was decent and quite spacious, and the front desk service was good.

The accommodations are new, clean and comfortable. Instructions for the aircon, ventilator, water heater washing machine were provided. Cleaning service was provided every 4th day. Change of towels and water requested and given at desk. Our room had no drinking mugs, so we had to purchase disposable cups at the convenience store located in the next building. We made a few requests, but each time the staff said the mugs were out of stock. Good location near Haeundae station and beach. We had glimpses of the sea through our room window.

This hotel is amazing. The harbor and city view was breathtaking. The room was really nice with a comfortable bed and nice bathroom with bathtub. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. They kept my bags before having access to the room and after check out. The location is nice. The nearest bus stop is 1 min away and underground station 8min away. The hotel is 2 stations away from Busan station. However, I’d recommend not charging for a toothbrush and toothpaste. Maybe give it at check in for those who would need them. I would definitely consider coming back to this hotel !

Overall, my stay was terrible. First of all, this place shouldn't even be called a hotel. On Google Maps, people refer to it as an inn, or at best, a guesthouse. We stayed for two nights. On the first day, some of my friends were assigned rooms that had a very strong renovation smell upon entering. They requested to change rooms, but several other rooms had the same issue. The manager's attitude was awful at the time, and they treated my friends as if they were being unreasonable. Secondly, the front desk hours are from 7 AM to 10 PM. After 10 PM, there's no one at the front desk, and you can only call for help. We left our room card inside, so we called the number provided by the front desk, but no one answered for a full two hours. In the end, a Trip.com customer service agent helped us get the room code so we could finally get in. Regarding cleanliness, some of the rooms weren't completely cleaned when we checked in. There were still empty liquor bottles from the previous guest on the balcony. The only thing worth mentioning is the location. This 'hotel' is a 5-minute walk from Haeundae Beach, there's a convenience store right outside, and the night market is also nearby. However, Uber's location services were inaccurate for this place.

The hotel is very clean and offers great value for money. It's located right across from the Busan Film Festival shopping street, a trendy and fashionable area.

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful and relaxing stay! It was definitely worth all the research we put into finding this place. It was clean and quiet, and check-in was a breeze. The location was also great, making it easy to get around according to our itinerary. Highly recommend this place for good value-for-money accommodation in Busan!
