Bucheon Vacations from ₩550,362

Overall, a good stay. While the hotel is a bit far from the city, I was satisfied with most aspects of my experience. I did book during a “new opening” promotion, so I was expecting a newer property. This part was a little underwhelming as the hotel isn’t actually new. That said, the customer service truly stood out. A special thank you to the lady who assisted me during check-in & check-out, she was incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful, which made a great first impression.

we will come again. Location is very good. we did private transfer from incheon airport. about 1 hr drive. We booked 2 rooms for 3 nights. Room is ok size but we had 29 inch luggage so it was a struggle. we basically slept and showered only so it was ok for us. The bathroom is tiny, the shower head is on top of the sink. there’s a funky smelly smell coming from the drains. we bought air freshener for the bathroom. There’s a hot water dispenser and microwave in the kitchen . We like the place for the location. we love iksedong. we walk there to eat every night. small lively restaurants and shops. Convenience store everywhere. We walked to Insadong shopping. We walked to Gyeongbokgung palace and hanok village maybe 25 mins. We walked to myeondong market maybe 30 mins. Walked to Gwanjang market. We took train to Gangnam and Starfield library. and Hannriver. Our family is used to walking in the city so 25-30 min walk didnt bother us. We wore sneakers the whole time. there’s a train station nearby, maybe 5 min walk. I see people leave their luggages in the lobby either for early checkin or they will elave for the aipprt later in the day. You can hear the peolple in the other room. but we were tired so we slept.

Clean room and friendly staff.

Elevated youth hostel at best. Next to no amenities (No hand soap in the bathroom?? No closet / anywhere to hang clothes. No slippers. Front desk only available until 10pm. No toiletries if you forgot yours) House keeping only available if your stay is 7+ days A 10min walk to Hongdae station so its a quieter area.

I arrived early at the hotel around 1:45 PM, but I never requested an early check-in. I was completely fine with returning at the standard check-in time of 3 PM. However, instead of simply asking me to come back later, the front desk staff asked me to scan a barcode and register through the hotel website. The connection did not work well, and I was left standing there trying repeatedly while feeling very tired. I want to be clear that I did not ask for early check-in, nor did I need it. I even mentioned that I would go have a coffee and return at 3 PM. Only then was I told I could receive the room key later, and I was also asked to leave a positive review before even checking in. I have stayed at this hotel location since 2018, and this was the first time I felt that the process was more focused on promoting the hotel rather than considering the guest’s comfort. While the staff member was polite and smiling, the experience felt unnecessary and uncomfortable from my perspective.
