Hotel Dengan Pools di Gyeongsangbuk-do, South Korea

The room far exceeded my expectations in every respect! I loved the decor inspired by traditional Korean aesthetics. However, there was a slight issue with flooding, as water sipped through the cracks from the shower onto the wooden floor of the bathroom area even with the shower door shut. Although this did not cause much discomfort, I am concerned about the long-term effect this may have on the beautiful wooden floors! The light switch for the cupboard was genuinely hard to find; I had to call the front desk after 11 p.m. to figure out how to turn it off so I could go to sleep. Since I was on a conference trip, I spent most of my time in the room preparing my presentation, and the tables and chairs were clearly not designed with business travelers in mind. Finally, I found the pillows surprisingly flimsy and regretted not bringing my own. For casual travelers looking only to relax, however, this is a truly outstanding hotel. These are minor blemishes on an otherwise great experience, and I'm leaving these comments only in case the staff is interested in making an excellent stay even more exceptional.

Super clean and spacious new villa in Hanok style. It's a bit out of town, but main attractions easily accessible with a car. Check-in was a bit difficult as we had no Korean number and communication was only possible in Korean. In the end a friendly worker helped us by calling the owner. Thanks again for his help.

The hotel is located outside the city; the nearest bus stops are 1.7 km away. A car is essential if you're traveling with children. Otherwise, the hotel itself is very clean, the rooms are spacious, and it has a spa and pool – ideal for family holidays. The location is also very quiet, with plenty of countryside. The owner is incredibly kind and friendly.

The room service chicken was really delicious, and there was a sauna, so I could come back every day and relax in the sauna. The breakfast had a lot of options and the view was great, so overall it was a satisfactory hotel. I will come back again when I come to Gyeongju!

Rooms are spacious and the lake view is stunning. Breakfast is extremely varied and tasty, but the pastry section is to be avoided. To move around it would have been better to have a car, but taxis are easy to order. The slippers were the lowest quality we encountered on this trip, the other amenities were ok. The main downside has been the cleanliness. While surfaces could definitely have used some more cleaning, the bedsheets weren't supposed to be changed unless specifically asked, according to their green police. But the changed them anyways and lost my pijama pants. Reception did what they could to locate them, but they couldn't find them after 3 days. Extremely disappointing for a hotel of that caliber. Now I have to buy new ones...

1. Cleanliness: The bed, floor, bathroom, etc. were all very clean. I wiped them with the magic block I prepared before playing in the kids' spa bath, and there was nothing left. 2. Location: The reason I gave it 3 points (average) is because it is far from downtown Gyeongju, so it is difficult to access cultural heritage sites in the city, Bomun Complex, etc., so I gave it 3 points. However, since the accommodation is next to the ocean, if your main purpose is to use the beach in the summer, it would be 5 points. 4-1. For a family of 4 (2 preschoolers), the room I chose (1 queen + 1 single) would be enough, but since the standard number of people is 2, I regret paying half of the daily rate as an additional fee... Regardless of the size of the accommodation, most pensions these days have a standard number of people of 2. 4-2. I only had breakfast once during my 2-night stay. I was very satisfied with the simple breakfast without any frills, but personally, the price was a bit burdensome. (It's cheaper than large hotels.) 5. Facilities: It seems to be about 3~4 years old, and there seem to be about 3~4 buildings. Based on the building with the counter and the building I stayed in (the building with the rooftop pool), it was clean and nice overall...ㅎ The rooftop pool is warm water, and there is a screen, so you don't have to worry about the cold. However, you can't see the ocean from the rooftop because of the screenㅠ The shower room and bathroom were separated into different spaces, and the toilet in the bathroom was really uniquely for the disabled;;; (backrest, handle) Maybe because it was a disabled bathroom, it was also quite large. About the size of a disabled bathroom at a department store? On the other hand, the shower room is only for 1 person...ㅎ 6. Overall: If I go to Gyeongju, I would definitely visit again. It was a very cost-effective accommodation. (The East Sea view from the room was great!!!!)

We went on a trip to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and the breakfast was delicious. We went out the back door to Bomun Lake, and it was so nice. It's also great for running. I think I went there in March of last year, but when I went again, it felt like it had been remodeled, so it was even better.

The boss is kind and the pension seems to be a bit old, but the interior is neatly arranged compared to that. I have had a comfortable time with good value for money.

The room is clean, it has a mini-kitchen, a bathroom and a bedroom. I loved the shampoo! There's a garden outside. There's no reception, so you need to contact the owner to make arrangements. As far as I understand, there's a 15k-per-person fee if you check-in after 10 pm, but i wasn't asked for it in the end. The location is a bit far away from the city centre: you need to walk for around a kilometre to the nearest bus stop (11, 100). There are a few convenience stores and restaurants on the way.

Just accross the sea and about 1km plus from Homigot, you can just stroll along the beach road and it will reach the Homigot square.. love it.. they have tools for outdoor BBQ.. the staff cannot speak English but they did provide you with English version for rules to follow and use phone translation to communicate and thats not an issue for me.. if you driving you can go to seafood market they are popular with snow crab or Japanese house street for cafe and history just few KMs from the place..
