"I stayed here with my boyfriend during our trip to Busan, and we were really happy with our stay. The hotel is very close to Suyeong Station, so it was easy to get around and visit Gwangalli and Centum City. There’s a convenience store and Daiso right in front of the hotel, and we also enjoyed exploring Paldo Market and the local restaurants nearby. The room was very clean, and the bed and bedding were especially comfortable. After walking around Busan all day, it was really nice to come back...

Top Gwangan-dong Hotel Reviews

Shilla Stay Busan Haeundae

10/10 Excellent

"Great!"

Busan Yeongmu Parade Hotel Haeundae Beach

8/10 Good

"Love this hotel, price good, very clean, you get a washer and dryer in your room, area close to lots of restos, just walking distance, but most importantly very near to Haeundae Beach, Haeundae Blueline Park and the Haeundae Traditional Market! But, if you come in on the first few flights in the early morning, you can’t check in until 4pm, so make plans for Day 1."

Paradise Hotel Busan

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location, right next to the beach. We stayed at the Annex building with ocean view. Worth paying more for the view and the Annex building. Hotel is close everything you need. We had fun exploring the area. Would stay here again next time. Everyone at the hotel was extremely helpful and polite."
