Staying at Northharbor Hotel was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the waterfront and surrounded by great dining options. The room itself was spotless, modern, and well-equipped with all the essentials. I especially loved the bathtub in the bathroom—it made for a relaxing soak after a long day. On the 22nd floor, the view of Busan Harbor at night was stunning, with the city lights reflecting on the water. Waking up to a morning sunrise right from my window was unforgettable. And don’t even get me started on the rooftop garden on the 26th floor—uninterrupted 360-degree views of the entire city, no need to go up to Busan Tower for a panoramic shot. This place truly delivers more than its price suggests. If you're visiting Busan, this hotel is a must-book. A fantastic value and an experience worth every penny.
Staying at Towerhill Hotel was an absolute delight! The room was spotless, spacious, and well-equipped—everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

Located just a short walk from Busan Station, it's incredibly convenient for travelers who rely on trains or want to explore the city easily. The staff were friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist—making the experience feel personal and welcoming. From check-in to check-out, everything ran smoothly. I’d definitely book here again on my next trip to Busan and recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
Staying at Hotel Ground27 was an absolute delight! The room was spacious and incredibly comfortable, with a generous living area perfect for meals or just relaxing. I especially appreciated the cozy setup—plenty of room to spread out, even with luggage. The front desk staff were warm and welcoming, going the extra mile by helping us order Korean fried chicken right after check-in. It arrived hot and delicious—such a nice touch! After checkout, I noticed the self-service locker near the front desk. While there’s a small fee, it’s totally reasonable and super convenient for storing bags before heading out. Everything about this stay felt thoughtfully designed, from the clean, modern rooms to the helpful service. If you're visiting Busan, this hotel is definitely worth considering—it’s a hidden gem with excellent value.
This was my first trip to Busan, and I couldn’t have picked a better hotel. It was absolutely fantastic! The room was spotless, but what truly blew me away was the bathroom—it’s huge, incredibly clean, and surprisingly spacious even though the toilet shares space with the shower area. No sense of crowding at all! The amenities are top-notch: a smart bidet toilet, a deep soaking tub, and everything you’d want for a relaxing bath. The room itself is generously sized, and I really appreciated the Japanese-style entryway where you can take off your shoes—perfect for comfort and hygiene. I’m guessing there’s underfloor heating because it felt warm underfoot during winter visits. Inside the mini-fridge, I found free mineral water, a mosquito repellent spray (great for unexpected bugs), and a thoughtful welcome amenity set. Small touches that make a big difference. Front desk staff are available 24/7—and they truly mean it. I came back late from a convenience store run, and someone was still awake to assist. Super convenient! The team members were genuinely kind, friendly, and helpful throughout check-in and check-out. No stress at all. Right outside the hotel is a CU convenience store, and the subway entrance is just a short walk away—perfect for exploring the city. Even better? There’s a fully equipped gym on-site. My only regret? I didn’t get a chance to try the sauna or hot spring facilities. Definitely saving that for next time! Is there any flaw? Honestly, I can’t find one. This place is nearly perfect. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Busan.
Staying at Toyoko Inn Busan Jungang Station felt like coming home—familiar, clean, and thoughtfully designed just like the one I stayed at in Tennoji, Osaka. The room I booked, 1707, was a perfect size for solo travel, with an unbeatable view of the sea right outside the window. Waking up to that sight every morning made the whole trip feel special. The hotel’s layout is smart and efficient, and everything feels well-maintained. One small suggestion: breakfast could use more variety—there were quite a few kimchi options, and while I appreciate the local touch, the strong flavor might not suit everyone. Adding a few more diverse choices (maybe some fresh fruit or Western-style items) would make it even better. Location-wise, this place is unbeatable. Right next to a bus stop, walking left leads you straight to Busan Station and Chinatown, while walking right takes you past Lotte Department Store, Nampo Market, Jagalchi Fish Market, and even the iconic Busan Tower. Getting here via subway is super easy—whether you exit from Busan Station’s Gate 1 or Jungang Station’s Gate 17, both are convenient. Personally, I found Jungang Station Gate 17 closer and more direct. From the airport, taking the light rail to Line 2, then switching to Line 1, costs the same whether you go to Busan or Jungang Station—so no extra expense. With its great value, excellent location, and consistent quality, I can’t imagine staying anywhere else on my next visit to Busan. This is now my top pick.
This boutique hotel is absolutely fantastic! Check-in was seamless through online booking, and the access code was sent directly to my email—very convenient. The location is perfect: just steps from a subway station and bus stops, making it easy to explore everywhere. Right outside the door is BIFF Street, with a bustling fish market and tons of shops for shopping and dining. There's even a currency exchange nearby, so no need to go far. While Haeundae Beach is a bit of a ride away (I took a bus), Songdo Beach is just a short trip—perfect for a day at the sand. Inside the room, it’s incredibly quiet—no noise from neighboring units at all. The air conditioning and ventilation work flawlessly, keeping the space cool and fresh. I especially appreciated having a washing machine and detergent in the room—ideal for longer stays. Hot water is available 24/7, which is a huge plus. Everything about this stay was excellent—from comfort to convenience. Highly recommend this gem for anyone visiting Busan!
Stayed here for five days and four nights during my trip to Busan, and it was absolutely perfect. The lobby has a luggage storage option—huge plus for early arrivals or late departures. The room isn’t huge, but it’s well-designed and comfortable. What I loved most was the balcony—every morning I’d step out for a breath of fresh air and soak up some sunshine with views of the sea. So relaxing! It's just a short walk from Nampo Station, and you can easily reach Lotte Mart and several shopping areas. Plus, there are frequent buses right at the corner, making it super convenient to get around the city. Great location, great vibe, and excellent value—definitely coming back.
It’s been seven years since my last visit to Busan, and this trip marked my first stay at Connect Busan Hotel & Residence—and what a fantastic experience it was!

It’s well-located, close to everything without being too far from the quieter areas. For the quality, comfort, and value, this hotel is unbeatable. I’d definitely book again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Busan.
Staying at Elephant Hostel Nampo was an absolutely fantastic experience, and I can't recommend it enough. The value for money is outstanding—this place delivers so much more than what you'd expect at this price point. The bathroom and shower area were immaculately clean, and the ventilation system kept everything fresh with no unpleasant odors. There's always a staff member available in their room during the evening, so if you need help or have any questions, they're quick to respond and genuinely helpful. While the room soundproofing isn't perfect, it didn't bother me at all—the other guests were respectful, quiet, and considerate, making for a peaceful night's sleep. Overall, this hostel exceeded my expectations in every way. If you're visiting Busan, this is definitely a top choice.
This place is absolutely fantastic—despite being labeled a guesthouse, it comfortably outshines many hotels I've stayed at. The bed is incredibly cozy and supportive, the air conditioning works perfectly, and having a private bathroom is such a plus. Breakfast was included and came with fresh toast, eggs, cup ramen, tea, coffee, juices, and even the option to fry up your own eggs and ham—super convenient! The front desk is open until 10 PM, which gives peace of mind for late arrivals. But what really blew me away was the view—just step to the window and you're greeted with an incredible panoramic sight of Busan Harbor. The location is unbeatable too: literally just steps from a subway stop and a short walk to the metro entrance. If I ever return to Busan, this will be my only choice. A true gem with amazing value.
