Naksan Beach Hotel

We stayed as family of 4, booked 2 twin rooms. One day before received reconfirmation call and to check arrival time which was nice touch. Staffs: not highly impressive but also not disappointing, just very average. They were kind and polite but not overly excited to go extra miles. Room: very clean and overall hotel is very well maintained. Room was small but perfect for 2 and had everything needed in compactable size. We had mountain view which we already expected no view. We were out from morning and back in the evening so this didnt bother us at all. Mountain view is basically looking at loading bay but was very well kept clean n tidy. Sauna/spa: very clean and worth to try. Location: right next to/walking distance to Naksan temple and close to city and beach. Excellent location. We will definately go back and hopefully will try sea view next time.

“Mediocre Hotel with a Path to a Nice Beach - and a Beautiful Temple in the Backyard”

Naksan Beach Hotel is a fitting representative of the town it's in: generally dull, lacking charm, and with few offerings for guests.

Naksan Beach Hotel is a fitting representative of the town it's in: generally dull, lacking charm, and with few offerings for guests. Our room was fine with a nice view of some pine trees and the water, and the hotel has a staircase that leads almost directly to the lovely Naksan Beach. But beyond that, there's not much to cheer about. All communication is in Korean, so if there are facilities for foreign guests, we missed them. The same goes for the town. It's clearly intended for domestic tourism. Since Koreans neither sunbathe nor swim, and since they don't seem bothered by drab concrete buildings, there's really nothing here for a discerning Western traveler. Just in time, we discovered why so many people stay at and frequent this hotel. Only 5 minutes away lies one of South Korea's most beautiful and famous sanctuaries, Naksansa Temple. This wonderful and still very active temple truly justifies choosing this hotel.

“Nice hotel, excellent location but a few odd things”

Next to the temple attraction which was awesome Nicely renovated and modern rooms at this hotel Kids club was really cool but didn't open until 2pm and closed at 8pmish approx - this is not cool!

Next to the temple attraction which was awesome Nicely renovated and modern rooms at this hotel Kids club was really cool but didn't open until 2pm and closed at 8pmish approx - this is not cool! Spa - additional cost and I didn't use Roof top with amazing views has so much potential but was unused. No chairs, no bar no nothing. Breakfast - loved the fresh sashimi, coffee was terrible, dont recall tea options, a few fresh fruits options, some pastries, couple of cereals, eggs on request or scrambled in self serve, lots of Korean condiments. Everything was topped up regularly and nice and clean but I honestly didn't love it. Not bad but not great either. Room - mountain view room was just the back of the hotel that looked onto a bunch of trees on a small hill above the driveway. A total let down if you are expecting a beautiful mountain view. Towels smelt horrible like bleach. A couple had holes in them and shouldn't be used for guests in a place like this. Pillows were very high. Beds comfy. Drain grates really smelled (plumbing) so we kept bathroom door closed and put wet towels over them. Housekeeping refused more than 2 bottles of water even though we booked a double room for 2 adults and kids Our booking came with free breakfast for two adults. Kids under 5 and over 2 are 13$usd approx. price is higher for kids over 5yrs from memory. This is a strange set up. Overall a nice hotel but I wouldn't stay here again. Staff don't smile here. Thy could try to be a bit more friendly which is such a nice exchange when you enter a hotel / are travelling. It felt a bit cold and sterile. This is just my opinion based on 3/4 nights here and I travel a fair bit internationally.

“Lovely spot but noisy.”

Stayed one night. The hotel is very nice and very clean. The staff are very friendly and the location is perfect.

Stayed one night. The hotel is very nice and very clean. The staff are very friendly and the location is perfect. I would have scored the hotel higher however it was noisy with loud guest up and down the corridor, not the hotels fault. But every hour at least there was a loud rumbling through the water pipes that woke us up each time. Get the plumbing fixed and it will be the number one spot at Naksan Beach.
