"市内繁華街から近く、利便性良し。穏やかそうなお姉さんが出迎えてくれる。枕元にコンセント有り、ライトは無し。室内、シーツ、タオル等全てにおいて非常に清潔。リビングも土足禁止なのでアジア文化圏の者にとって寛ぎやすい。朝食はシリアル・バナナ・卵等を選べた。お湯が出なくて少し寒かったが、夏なので大丈夫だった。多分すぐに修理されると思う。 "

"숙박 장소 앞에 맛집이 있어 찾아오기 쉬웠을 텐테 주소검색으로만 찾아 좀 번거로웠지만 주인장이 너무 친절하셔서 최고로 추천합니다."

"괜찮았어요~ 공항 가까이라 이용했습니다. 다만 공용이라고 표기되어있어 예약했는데 그게 혼성이더라고요. 이용에 참고하세요."

10/10 Excellent

"Comfort n good"

Holiday Inn Gwangju by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Staff are very professional and kind. Rooms are generally quiet. The cleaning crew does a great job. Everything you need is here. Restaurants and stores are a bit far away but walking/taxi/bus/subway are your options. I like walking so it was fine. There are some parks to exercise nearby too. Rooms/carpets are getting a little wear but overall an excellent hotel, I would stay here again."
