WA Hotel

Very hard to locate of maps. Easily found on Naver, but Taxi services and even a few.Uber drivers struggled to get directions. Ubers main issue was getting around the street dividers where Taxi's had couldn't find the address. Hotel had very premium services, heated floors, jacuzzi bathtub, two beds, free water, fridge, etc. However, the entrance is located inside the parking garage and outdated. The room was cleaned to the bare minimum. New sheets, pillows, towels. But so much dust on the headrest, behind the TV. But more concerning was previous occupants toothpaste tubes, hand soap, and nught table where you could still see previous drink rings. We'd still stay again because the price was great and it feels like a family run hotel and the staff are so friendly it makes up for is faults. I watched outside companies bring in fresh linen every morning and reassured I was sleeping on clean sheets.

Spacious room, clean, and check in was easy, just asked for passport and handed me the room card. The card reader on the lock was a little bit finnicky but eventually it opens. Location is also extremely convenient to get to the stations. I took a lot of taxi rides due to the little amount of time I had to explore Busan, and it was very cheap to get from there to Gamcheon Cultural Village. It's a bit further if you want to visit places like Haeundae, but it's still convenient to get there. From the airport to the hotel, the taxi driver could not find the location on his gps for some reason, so if your taxi driver can't find the place, just say Nampo station and you can walk to the place within a couple minutes.

The hotel is in a very good location in Busan. It also had a small parking area next to the reception. The room that we had was spacious, however the bathroom had a corner bath with an overhead shower with no curtain rail so the floor got wet if you weren't careful. The main shopping street is just around the corner from the hotel and the Lotte shopping centre is a few minutes walk away. Go to the top floor where there is a free observation deck and garden which offers great views of the city during the day and night - check the opening hours. Definitely worth a visit!

It's a conveniently located place to stay but it is not the cleanest, nor the most comfortable. The bed and pillow were very hard. There was no bathroom privacy and you can't flush toilet paper. The room felt wet and stale with moisture. We only used it for sleeping so it was fine, but I wouldn't stay again.

5 star accommodation for a 3 star fee rate.
