Sanghaemun Tours

Location was good! Right in front of bus station and subway stops. Very close to shopping areas and local markets. Staff were friendly and spoke English. Elevator available. My room was outdated and you could tell the walls and shower fixtures needed maintenance. For cleanliness, I had to ask for linen change because there was hair on the bed from a previous tenant. Mold and mildew were present in the room I stayed in, and traces of clothing particles like loose thread were on the floor. The good thing was working air conditioning, free waters for each day of your stay. Didn’t like the fact that they didn’t have full size bath towels, only hand towels for your shower.

Centrally located- easy walk to Seomyeon station. Easy to get to various attractions from here. Can take subway to catch KTX at Busan Stayion or can catch a bus easily (if outside of rush hour) right near the hotel to go to KTX station very easily. Spacious, clean, modern - newly renovated rooms. Spa like bathrooms. Great resto/rooftop terrace. Would highly recommend.

The rooms on the 9th floor had a strong odor and it was not very pleasant. Maybe rooms facing the ocean side will be better. Our rooms faced the street side across from Busan bakery. Otherwise, the hotel is in a very good central location and we liked being close to the beach and surrounding Haeundae area.
