Our take

We have stayed here twice in a Family Twin: once as a family in an ocean-view room and once solo in a city-view room. The layout is identical, and our advice is to save the money and book the city view. The ocean-view room has floor-to-ceiling glass and central air conditioning with little individual control, and it got hot enough that we took the baby down to the lobby during the day.

The lobby lounge is the best feature, a high-ceilinged space with a long shared table that works well for a laptop or a video call. The beach is a minute or two across the road. Staff gave us a bed guard on request and kept baby food in the front desk fridge. Do not book for the rooftop pool, since its opening hours are very short, and skip the hotel breakfast in favor of brunch at a cafe on Haeridan-gil. Bring your own streaming login for the TV.

What locals say

One of the most reviewed Haeundae hotels among locals, with over 3,200 reviews. Clean rooms, friendly staff, bedding and the view lead, and guests say the ocean-view rooms are worth choosing. Breakfast is liked and the toiletries are L'Occitane. Small complaints: no proper table for eating in the room, the TV needs a set-top box from the front desk for streaming, check-in queues at busy times and some street noise at night.

Summarized in our own words from Korean-language guest reviews on Korean booking sites. We do not copy reviews or ratings.
