"Now I understand why everyone leaves rave reviews for the Westin, despite it being older than the competition. I made this reservation last minute for a whole week, and my goodness, it was such a relaxing stay.
The hotel was renovated I believe in 2024, so the rooms were actually quite new. The views from the room and from every restaurant were from the best angle on the beach. I tried four, including the new deli, and they were quite good with late hours. Try the cocktails.
The Westin’s location and lower height gives you the best beachfront experience. It’s like you almost have your own private resort. Open the window, and you’re close enough to smell fresh sea air as well as hear the soothing sound of waves. Step out the back entrance, turn left and you’re right on the beach. Turn right and you can take a romantic walk along the decked trail to a lighthouse and up a hill. You can’t do that at any other Haeundae hotel. This really is the best feng-shui.
Lastly, I have to say that every step of the way from my arrival to departure, every single staff member I interacted with provided impeccable service promptly, smoothly, and with such gracious manners. I am now a believer in the Westin experience in Busan. "
"Hotel is ok for its price range. Good breakfast selections. Room quite tight. Bathroom is like one you'll find in a cruise ship. Really tiny. Front desk staff is awful. We're in our 70s. I asked if we could have extra pillows because we have a bit of discomfort when the pillows are not sufficiently elevated. The young lady at the front desk was hesitant. There is a young man, who was obviously more senior, was instructing her how to respond instead of just replying directly to me. She said the hotel only allowed one extra pillow per room. This is the first hotel that we have visited that declined this type of request. "
