I stayed at Paradise Hotel Incheon because of its convenient location near Incheon International Airport. The best part was the free shuttle bus from Terminal 1.
t departs from **Gate 3** from Terminal 1 and need to across the street go to 3C stop. Don't wait at the front of the bus stop 3C—the hotel shuttle stops near the far end. I waited at the front and almost missed it. I also noticed many people without luggage taking the same shuttle, and later realized they were probably going to the hotel's ******.
Check-in was smooth and the staff were friendly. However, I had some difficulty finding the reception because the hotel is huge and divided into different wings (Red Wing, Purple Wing, etc.).
The minibar is complimentary and includes bottled water, one pack of almonds, two gummy candies of different sizes, tea bags, and coffee. Considering the room price, I expected a little more. Instead of two gummy candies, it would have been nice to have something like a small bottle of orange juice.
The biggest disappointment was the toilet. It flushes automatically after about 6–7 seconds, as stated, but the flushing process takes a long time and is quite weak. I often had to stand up multiple times before everything worked properly because the water pressure was not strong enough.
The bathtub also had a few hairs in it when I arrived, so I decided not to use it. The bed was very comfortable, and I slept well.
Breakfast is served on the first floor and costs an additional 75,000 KRW . There was a wide variety of food, and the quality was good. However, it was quite crowded with families and children. I stayed over the weekend, so that was probably the reason. The hotel suggests the guests to go there before 8.30 am to avoid crowd.
The hotel also provides a small booklet with various discounts and benefits, including discounted ****** membership, discounts at Lotte Department Store, and one free baggage drop-off service for selected airlines. I found this booklet useful.
One important thing to know is that, under Korean regulations introduced in 2024, disposable toothbrushes and razors are no longer provided free of charge. If you use the hotel's toothbrush, it costs 2,000 KRW. I experienced the same policy at other hotels in Korea.
I did not have time to use the swimming pool on the third floor. Overall, I enjoyed my stay. The location, free airport shuttle, comfortable bed, and breakfast were the highlights. The only major downside was the weak and slow-flushing toilet.
