"Hotel was really for vacationing Koreans. Children were welcomed. Rooms were comfortable but there were no overhead lights near the beds and no end tables. Cleaning services were avaliable but several times we got back to our room in late afternoon to find the room had yet to be serviced. Hotel was near a famous Buddha temple but not centrally located. "
"Great staff, great food. My bathroom smelled mildewy and the shower drain kept flooding the bathroom. Also in winter there is central heating and all our rooms were very hot, like 80F."
"신축이라 정말 깔끔하고 시스템 에어컨은 무풍 기능까지 있어서 놀랐어요. 다~좋았는데 층간소음이 있는 편이었어요. 잘 땐 조용해져서 다행이었던ㅎㅎ 프런트 직원 분들 너무 친절하시고 좋아서 재방문 의사 있습니다.
황리단길 등의 핫플과는 거리가 약간 있어서 날 선선할 땐 걸어도 되지만 한여름엔 택시 이용하는걸 추천합니다"
"The Hanok is beautiful and in a great location. The best part is the wonderfully friendly owners. Highly recommended! I’d love to return someday. Hasta pronto!! "

Walk over an idyllic bridge, cruise around in a ferry that is shaped like a giant duck or swan and admire the giant water mill when staying in this lake resort.
You can search for that perfect souvenir at Hwangnidan-gil Road during your stay in Gyeongju. Amble within the forests or visit the temples in this culturally rich area.
Dotted with ancient temples, burial mounds, pagodas and palaces, this former capital of the Silla Kingdom is the perfect place to explore early Korean history.
The historic archeological sites are interesting and no doubt important culturally to Koreans, the hanok villages are quiant. The town, however, is over-touristed, expensive (by Korean standards), and tacky. One unexpected highlight: Bar Boon

Picture perfect location to spend a couple of days when in South Korea. Makes an ideal stop off between Seoul and Busan (or vice-versa). Don't miss Jungang Night Market

"Very comfortable , clean hotel in a very convenient location. Comfortable beds, large bathroom with shower and large tub. Good breakfast and very attentive staff. Secure lockers to leave luggage if not leaving the area at check-out time. Free bottles of cold water for the room and to take out during the day. Would definitely stay again."
"Kolon Hotel was remodeled in 2023, so the beds and facilities (air conditioning, bathroom, amenities, etc.) were excellent.
However, perhaps because it was only a renovation, the window frames are still a bit outdated.
There weren’t any major downsides, but it wasn’t perfect either.
It offers great value for money, and the breakfast in particular was outstanding and delicious.
What I liked the most was the Time After Time exhibition. If you’re Korean, I highly recommend getting tickets.
The program was great, the facilities were well maintained, and there was a lot to see.
Both the kids and the whole family were very satisfied."
