Hostels in South Korea

"The staff was very kind and helpful. The place is clean and close by the station entrance. The air conditioning differed whenever the weather was hot or cold"

"I booked a Premier Suite Twin for my friend and I. The room was super spacious and clean and included several wonderful amenities, such as a sanitization closet, in-suite laundry, and a freezer! The gym was clean and in good shape, and the hotel is well-located as well. Just a short walk from a subway station. Definitely excellent value for money! Only downside is that there were no options for breakfast to be included in the cost paid, (it was an extra daily charge). Additionally, my friend had an interaction with a front-desk employee who seemingly didn’t speak much English, which made communication difficult, (a hotel is the one place while travelling where you would not expect this to be an issue). Overall though, I would definitely recommend Hotel The Botanik to others travelling to Seoul :)"

"It said it had washer dryer but it's only a washer. The kettle didn't work. The table lamp had a lose connection. The entry way decor had a piece of wood lose. They did give us a lot of water to drink."

"I don’t want to repeat things others said already. I agree that it’s comfortable, clean, and convenient. I wanted to share some other amenities that I saw in the lobby area. There was a bar with a nice seating area. There’s a money exchange machine. There’s a photobooth where you can take passport photos. There’s a business area with two computers that have printing capabilities. The convenient store has a microwave and is open 24 hours a day. I will definitely stay here again in the future. They also offer free ear plugs for the airplane noise. Though for me I didn’t really notice the airplanes without earplugs."

"Fantastic location, excellent staff with great customer mindset, room with functional amenities. Indoor connection to the subway and the dept stores. Navigating back to the hotel from the store is quite a challenge. The signage is poor, especially when the dept store is closed, many signages pointed to closed access. Otherwise, hotel is well situated with countless dining option outside the building, and a nearby laundromat is only 5 mins walk away. Not cheap but well worth the price. We used this as base to travel around the attractions in Busan, using combination of taxi, bus and subway. We also travel to Jeonju using the subway and express bus. Appreciate the superb and convenient location."

"The room is nice sized and clean but the water pipe line makes so much noise and it disrupts my sleep at night. Other than that my stay was good."

"great service, great view, great room"

"The hotel itself is beautiful—right by the ocean with stunning views. However, the staff don’t seem as well trained as I expected. It’s not that they are bad, but compared to other places, they don’t feel very professional. Also, when I first arrived, it was quite difficult to find the main entrance and front desk. I had to carry my luggage around and spent a lot of time figuring out where to go, which was inconvenient. That said, the hotel is quite unique, and the scenery alone makes it worth visiting thought"

"The staff are top notch. Laura at the front desk was extremely kind, welcoming and informative about the hotel's amenities even during a very busy time due to what seemed like a convention. Clean and quiet rooms, best room service meals I've ever had, and the bus to the airport stopping at the hotel made for a wonderful stay. "
