Great place... Walking distance to restaurants, the tombs,... 2km away from the palace and pond. Bus station is next door. While great for travelling, it also means that you need to keep the windows closed.

Solo Traveler in Gyeongju

This is a brand new "business" hotel near the Inter-City Bus Station and it was a wonderful experience to stay here. The free morning breakfast was a bevy of Korean and Western food choices with a very friendly staff working the buffet-style breakfast. The only thing to know is that there is not a coin laundry on the premise, but there was a good Korean laundry near the hotel that would wash and dry your clothes for a reasonable price based on the weight of your laundry. Otherwise, this was a wonderful place to rest up after a long day of sightseeing in Gyeongju, and it was close to the bus terminals.

It was far better than I expected. I understood later why this hotel had a good rating from guests. It was not the 5 star hotel, but definitely better than average 4 star hotels with many details for staying guests.

High recommend hotel in excellent location

At first you may think that this hotel isn't in the right location but it really is just 2 minutes from the main street and a short walk to the rest of the city. We had a lovely room on the top floor, very clean and well appointed. Breakfast was included too. Our room had a steam cabinet for your clothes, a new experience for me!

Very nice hotel. Seems very new. The breakfast is a good value with a mix of Korean and Western food. The LG styler was interested. The main drawback is the staff's very limited English. Also, the location is next to both bus stations but not that close to the sites of interest.
