Cost of the buffet. We had a very similar buffet in Seoul for half the cost . Costly restaurant.

View. Transport handy. Comfortable rooms

The fact that there was a major conference going on across the street and all their restaurants were closed for renovations. Also, the size of the portions of the alcohol drinks in the bar were ridiculously meager.

The location was ideal in that the conference center was across the street. The staff was very helpful and accomodating.

The pool as a place to relax time barred was a surprise

Generally great

Access to outdoor swimming pool was too expensive for guests, ATM at the hotel not equipped to handle foreign travelers, poor command of English language by most of staff. It is a hotel oriented to cater for families, so there were too many children, and it was quite noisy specially the breakfast area.

Comfortable and clean room and bed, light in the room and in the whole hotel, breakfast was just ok, a very good concierge service to arrange for the service of a touristic guide and taxis to move around.

Be sure you have the swimming-pool access for free in your reservation otherwise they will charge you a lot!!! More than 30$ per person, more than the price of the big Amusement Park nearby!!! And it is a swimming-pool for children to play. Only that!!! Don’t expect to relax there

I had salad for breakfast but they did not have ranch, Italian, or caesar dressing so I couldn’t eat my salad. Also, they discriminate when serving beverages. They told us the drinks were self-serving, yet the waitresses served the white foreigners. They ignored Asian-Americans like me and my family members.

Nice view. Convenient location that’s close to all the touring areas.

Room interior was on the aged side. Most of the hotel facilities were under renovation so there was nothing to do onsite if you were planning to just stay on the property. Air conditioning was unavailable as well due to the renovations. (as of mid March 2023)

Spacious, well equipped room, comfortable bed. Awesome views of the lake and amusement park. Hotel is near to some notable attractions and scenic walks. Breakfast spread was great. Staff were friendly and proactive, and tried their best to make my stay as comfortable as they could as the hotel had no air conditioning and facilities were closed for renovation. (as of mid March 2023)

As with several other luxury hotels in Gyeongju, it was located inconveniently far from town. Many of the recommended restaurants were a 20-minute cab ride away, and very few of the local restaurants were recommended (or recommendable). The cafe/bar in the hotel served terrible food at luxury hotel priced. The pizza came out cold, and the Caesar salad had bacon mixed in (not listed among the ingredients on the menu). Don't eat there! Plan on the 20-minute cab ride.

Most of all, we were very impressed with the concierge staff. One evening, I fell (not near the hotel) and came back bleeding. The staff were simply incredible, helping with cleaning and dressing my cuts and scrapes. They even remembered me and asked how I was and if I needed anything the next day. The location was also pleasant, right on a lake with a nice view from our room. We had a wonderful balcony, and the room was very nice.

Asked for a quiet room and got one over the car park. They would not change. Food pricey.

Central location. Large room. Clean.

The check-in experience was one of the worst I've seen. The ticketing system was confusing, it was crowded, they put us in a waiting room which did not have A/C despite the very hot weather, and there seemed to be only one desk open for a while despite the crowd and a lot of staff just hanging around visibly doing nothing. Also, use of the facilities came as extras, which makes you feel unwelcome. The drinks and food were also very expensive by Korean standards. Quality-wise, what we had was very average at best. The location was actually pretty far from the main attractions and streets of historical Gyeongju; this was mostly my fault for not checking thoroughly though. If you are planning to go there during a hot month, the walk along the river/lake to the historical centre is not really feasible, although taxis are plenty.

Decent. The place itself is fine and I actually liked the view onto the amusement park, with the trees and riverside. For its (relatively low) price, it was very decent, but I'd struggle to find something I really liked about it.

Breakfast buffet was not as good as the high price

Had a great stay but it was spoiled by the very last interaction I had with the two member of staff at concierge. I checked out and asked for a bottle of water, because I just checked out they said no more water allowed. Customer service never stops, this is a disappointing way to end a good stay and left a bad taste in my mouth as I left.

Big pool, both indoors and indoors, but we had to pay £20 each to enter. The sauna was extra again. You need to check your reservation carefully to see if it's included. The hotel is tired, and if you want to go in to town its 20 mins in a taxi.

The hotel is a resort, with a lot of kids. Bars & restaurants around the lake are good to visit at night.

cost of the breakfast. I somehow only book a double king size bed for one person when i obviously intended to stay with my wife and the paid for breakfast was very expensive

Beautiful hotel

In room Air conditioning wasn’t working, it seemed entire property was on central heating Staff needs to be trained in English if possible.

Off town quieter location. Great lakeside walk.

(1) Toothbrushes and toothpaste were not provided in the room, only for a special charge. You have to bring your own! (2) The hotel is far from the city center and sightseeing places. You need to take a bus/taxi to get there (on average ~20 min, if no traffic ~10 min). (3) Not many places to eat, so its better to go to travel to the city center, which has many cafes and restaurants.

The view from the room was spectacular. Overall the room was very comfortable and spacious. The staff was very kind. Very nice coffee shop/bakery ADEN near the hotel. The hotel has near an amusement park and pool club. I think it is more suitable for families with kids.

The bed was just a little bit too firm.

I liked how convenient the location was and the views from the lake view room. Also the size of the room was great. The breakfast in the morning was amazing with plenty of variety.

Just not as clean as I would’ve expected

The hotel was old and not up to Hilton standards or customers expectations of the Hilton chain.

Location and Team

Stayed in April 2023

The facilities and the room are quite old. The arm of the sofa is too hard, guests could get injured. The shower glass door of room 515 doesn’t close completely. The closet is tiny and right by the entryway. There are too many paper documents containing hotel information left on surfaces in the room. When connected to HDMI input source, the television glitches.

The location is quite convenient as it’s right next to a tourist area. A friendly front desk staff said she upgraded our room despite it was a weekend and the hotel seems packed.
