Seongdong Elementary School in Busan has become an unexpected Instagram hotspot with its charming red-brick facade and vintage arches. This retro-style school building perfectly captures old Korea vibes, especially when local students in classic uniforms flood out during dismissal. Don't miss the nearby cafes serving school-themed desserts - their "chalkboard cake" is as photogenic as the historic campus itself. A delightful pitstop for those seeking authentic Korean neighborhood atmosphere.

Our stay at Commodore Hotel Busan was absolutely fantastic. We chose this hotel specifically for its unique architecture and distinctive interior design, and we were thoroughly impressed. The attention to detail in the building’s layout and decor is truly remarkable. Our premium room offered a breathtaking view of the sunrise—perfect for sipping morning coffee or tea in peaceful solitude (photo attached). While the hallways are slightly dated and dimly lit, the rooms themselves are modern, clean, and well-appointed with comfortable beds and excellent showers. The staff were attentive, genuinely friendly, and always ready to assist. Plus, the location is ideal—everything we needed, from nearby attractions and subway stations to convenience stores and ATMs, was just a short walk away. This is more than a 4-star experience—it’s a memorable one. I’d absolutely stay here again and recommend it without hesitation to anyone visiting Busan.
I was a bit skeptical at first since the price seemed low, but this hotel truly exceeded my expectations. It's a 3-star property with a bathtub in the room—everything you'd need is provided except for the toothbrush (due to local regulations). What stood out most was being able to charge my devices using Japanese-style outlets—huge plus for travelers from Japan and nearby regions. The location is fantastic: right next to convenience stores, Lotte Mart, and plenty of restaurants and cafes. I walked everywhere easily, including to Haeundae Beach and Nampodong. The front desk is spacious and clean, and there are staff members who speak Japanese, so communication was never an issue. I noticed many Japanese guests staying here too—clearly a popular choice. Overall, it’s a great value for the price, super convenient, and very comfortable. Definitely coming back if I visit Busan again.
Staying at this hotel was a great experience overall. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the subway, making it super convenient for exploring the city, shopping, and dining. It’s especially ideal for night owls who want to unwind after a long day of sightseeing or late-night adventures. If I ever return to Busan, this would be my top choice again. The only downside is the soundproofing—it wasn’t very effective. On my last night, neighbors were still loud well into the early hours. Also, the housekeeping staff arrived early and pushed their cart right outside the door, which made quite a bit of noise and woke me up. Despite that, the room was clean, the staff friendly, and the area incredibly vibrant. For the price and convenience, this place offers excellent value and is definitely worth considering.
The room was incredibly clean and beautifully decorated with a luxurious touch—every detail felt thoughtfully designed. Located just steps from Subway Lines 1 and 2, plus numerous bus routes, getting around Busan is super easy. Whether you're heading to Haeundae Beach, Nampo-dong, or the city center, everything is within quick reach. The daily light cleaning service was appreciated—staff were attentive and professional without being intrusive. One small note: the central heating made the room quite warm and dry, which might be uncomfortable for some, especially during longer stays. A humidifier or moisture monitor could help balance the air quality. Despite that, the overall experience was outstanding—great location, excellent cleanliness, and fantastic value. I’d definitely stay here again.
The hotel is perfectly located right next to the subway station, making it super convenient for getting around Busan. Just steps away, you'll find a large supermarket and Lotte Department Store—perfect for shopping or grabbing essentials. The room was spacious and clean, offering a comfortable stay. One thing to note is that the laundry machine costs 3,000 KRW per use, but you can purchase detergent on-site if needed. While the room comes with a pot and dishes, it’s a bit inconvenient that utensils like chopsticks and spoons aren’t provided—especially if you’re planning to cook or eat simple meals in-room. It would be great if the hotel could include basic cutlery in future. Overall, the location, size, and cleanliness make this a fantastic value for money. Highly recommend for travelers looking for comfort and convenience.
Staying at Busan Seomyeon Yuna Hotel Business was an absolute delight! The front desk staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home despite the international mix of guests. Communication was smooth and effortless, even across language barriers—truly impressive service. During breakfast, a kind staff member patiently taught us how to prepare instant noodles, sharing fun tips from different cultures. It was such a joyful experience seeing travelers from all over the world enjoying meals together, chatting and laughing like old friends. The hotel itself is spotlessly clean, with well-maintained rooms and a refreshing touch of free drinking water available throughout. Everything about this stay felt thoughtfully curated—from hospitality to hygiene to the vibrant, inclusive atmosphere. I’ll definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Busan.
Located just across from Busan Station, this hotel offers unbeatable convenience—everything is within walking distance, whether you're heading to the train station, shopping areas, or local eateries. We had a last-minute addition to our group, so three of us stayed in one room. The extra charge for the third person was 60,000 KRW over three nights—around $30 USD—which felt fair considering the hotel was fully booked and we were given a comfortable space. A taxi to the airport cost about 16,000 KRW (~$10–12 USD), roughly 15 km away, and it was smooth, safe, and worth every penny, especially with heavy luggage or late arrivals. The location alone makes this place a top pick. Highly recommend for travelers who value accessibility and ease—especially if you're connecting through Busan Station.
Staying at Karat Hotel in Busan was an absolute delight. The owner couldn’t have been more welcoming and friendly—genuine hospitality from start to finish. The bed was incredibly comfortable, soft yet supportive, making for a restful night’s sleep. Every corner of the room was spotlessly clean, and the bathroom was spacious and well-maintained—definitely not your average motel standard. It felt more like a modern office-style apartment with a premium touch. The bright, airy interior gave it a fresh, upscale vibe that truly lived up to its name as a hotel. Everything was thoughtfully designed, from the layout to the attention to detail. If you're looking for a clean, comfortable, and well-located stay in Busan, this is a top recommendation. I’ll definitely be back.
The location is excellent—just a short walk to the beach and downtown, making it super convenient for exploring Busan. However, the room feels a bit tight for four guests, especially with luggage. That said, the value for money is solid, and the quiet neighborhood adds to the relaxing vibe. Waking up to sea views through the window is a real highlight. While it’s perfect for couples or solo travelers looking for a peaceful stay, families might want to consider a larger room type to feel more comfortable.
This hotel is a gem in Busan! Located just a short walk from Haeundae Beach, it's incredibly convenient for exploring the area. The room was spotless and well-maintained—very clean and comfortable. I was impressed by the value for money; it’s rare to find such a great price with this level of quality. The check-in time being after 2 PM was a minor downside, but overall, it didn’t ruin the experience. I’d definitely stay here again if I’m visiting Busan, especially if they could offer earlier check-in around 4 PM. For anyone looking for a quiet, clean, and affordable base in a prime location, this place is a top choice.
