"This hotel was amazing. The price point for what you get is incredible. The price includes your breakfast, dinner, and several drinks. You get an hour at the spa each day, which is a cozy jacuzzi with some incense and calm music. You also get a free polaroid to take photos on as well as access to a speaker. The actual place is incredibly clean and relaxing. There are some trails around the property as well as on the lake. I would literally come back to Korea to stay here, so worth it. The staff...

Benikea Swiss Rosen Hotel

8/10 Good

"Was very nice. All the staff where super helpful and is very close to many beautiful viewpoints."

Gyeongju H Avenue Hotel Bulguksa

10/10 Excellent

"경주 불국사 바로 옆에 위치한 어 호텔은 착한 가격에 비해 전체적으로 정말 만족스러웠던 숙소였습니다. 불국사 근처라 주변에서 맛집을 가거나 쇼핑하기에 아주 좋았고, 큰길에서 살짝 안쪽에 자리 잡고 있어 밤에도 조용하고 가볍게 산책하며 돌아다니기 좋았습니다. 호텔 내에 전용 주차장도 마련되어 있어 차를 대기에도 무척 편리했습니다. 무엇보다 방 문을 열었을 때 깜짝 놀랄 만큼 방이 아주 넓고 깔끔했으며, 객실 안에 월풀 기능이 있는 하트 욕조가 있어 하루 종일 여행하느라 쌓인 피로를 싹 풀 수 있었습니다. 아침 식사는 빵과 시리얼, 구운 달걀, 커피, 오렌지 주스, 망고 주스로 구성된 컨티넨탈 블랙퍼스트라 아침을 간단하게 때우기에는 무난했지만 큰 기대를 하기는 살짝 아쉬웠습니다. 하지만 이 소소한 부분을 제외하면 전체적인 룸 컨디션과 위치, 주차 편의성까지 가격 대비 너무나 훌륭해서 전체적으로 아주 만족스러운 머무름이었습니다."

Hilton Gyeongju

8/10 Good

"The location was great as we also visited Gyeongju world. Options around the hotel for food outside are very limited so ended up going into the town every evening. Unfortunately the concierge were not very helpful when we asked questions on how best to see the sites, but just ended up using the internet to build our own itinerary. We had a family room for 4 but there were only 3 towels, 3 robes etc.. the first day we asked for extra, but then had to ask every other day. The buffet was good."
