Jeju City Hotels with Gym

While there are many great hotels in Jeju, and a night at the JW Marriott can easily cost over 5,000 RMB, the Grand Hyatt offers the most reliable balance of price, location, and quality. Its location is truly its biggest advantage, situated in the iconic twin towers in the bustling heart of Jeju City, making the building instantly recognizable. Shilla Duty-Free Shop is just a ten-minute walk away, Lotte Duty-Free is also nearby, and a large E-Mart supermarket is right next door. There are countless cafes and small restaurants in the vicinity, so you can easily sort out all your dining, entertainment, and shopping needs within 500 meters of the hotel. Overall Experience: Staying at the Grand Hyatt Jeju is stress-free, even if you don't speak Korean. The hotel is filled with Chinese signage – in the elevators, by restaurant entrances, and next to the pool – often more Chinese signs than Korean ones. The 220V power outlets in the room don't require an adapter, making this hotel practically the safest choice if it's your first time in Jeju. The large floor-to-ceiling windows offer a good view, and while it's not a sea view, the scenery outside is still pleasant. The room's interior is identical to the sea view rooms. Overall, I'm quite satisfied. Address📍: 12 Noyeon-ro, Jeju Island, South Korea Price💰: 1533 RMB for a 65 sq m King Room per night

Service: Arrived at 12 AM Korea time, and the front desk gentleman spoke excellent Chinese, which made communication very easy. The hotel hallway was wide and smelled lovely. Even though it was fully booked, it was very quiet for sleeping, so the soundproofing seems good. Cleanliness: Housekeeping cleaned daily. There were no disposable toothbrushes, so you'll need to bring your own. The leather slippers weren't disposable either, so I'd recommend bringing your own slippers. Facilities: There's a kettle and a mini-fridge, with mineral water replenished daily. There are two Chinese-style power outlets, but the bedside outlets are Korean, so it's more convenient to bring your own adapter if you need one. Surroundings: The CU downstairs is open from 6:30 AM to 11 PM, but there's a 24-hour CU just 150 meters away. There are also 24-hour pollock soup and pork bone soup restaurants nearby. Compose Coffee is across the street. Overall, it's great, the streets are quiet, and it's easy to catch a taxi.

Five-star price for three-star amenities, I'd say. We booked a sea-view family room. The first night, the view was great; you opened the curtains right onto the ocean. The second day, we returned from an outing around 8 PM, and when we opened the door, the bathroom had a terrible sewage smell. The staff were very nice about it; we packed up our bags that night and moved to a different room. This one overlooked the pool. They gave us four coffee vouchers, bringing the total to six, including the ones we got at check-in. These vouchers were only good for Americano or bayberry juice at the hotel coffee shop. After settling into the new room, we found the air conditioning wasn't cooling. I didn't dare unpack. I reported it to the front desk, and again, their attitude was excellent; they sent someone to fix it right away. After the repair, it still wasn't cooling. I told the front desk again. They said their system showed the temperature was dropping and asked us to wait a bit longer. By this time, it was past 10 PM, and the kids were getting sleepy, so we just unpacked and showered. After our showers, the maintenance staff came again, worked on it for a long time, and then told us we'd have to move rooms again. I was furious! It was almost midnight, and we had to pack up again and move to a family room with bunk beds, still overlooking the pool. Finally, I proactively asked for four breakfast vouchers, and they were very polite and didn't hesitate to give them to us. At around 5 AM, I was woken up by a bird pecking at the window. I couldn't shoo it away; it would leave for a bit and then come right back. It was so annoying I just had to laugh.

The hotel lobby offered welcome drinks in the afternoon. The room was clean. This time, our deluxe sea-view family room (636) had a balcony with an unbeatable view, and we had a very comfortable stay. The swimming pool is small and shallow, really just for soaking, not actual swimming. The operating hours (13:00-21:00) are a bit awkward, making it impossible to use for those arriving late in the afternoon for a one-night stay. However, the sea view is a big plus, so I would choose this hotel again in the future.

Pros: 5 stars hotel. Room was great, clean and big. We stayed here for a night as we were on the way back to Jeju City from Seogwipo. Price was very reasonable. Hotel is in theme with the themepark, and very big. Saw many other guests going to the outdoor swimming pool thought it was very cold. Convenient only if you are driving! Cons: location was very far off. Dinner options (only buffet $90/pax) in hotel was very expensive. We drove out to have dinner. Not much amenities surrounding the hotel. Drive out 10-15 mins to nearby food town, which has ilpum sundubu, and one 7-11 convenience store.

The connecting rooms are perfect for three or four friends traveling together. It's essentially a double room and a twin room with an interconnecting door, both with their own bathrooms and bay windows. They provide plenty of drinking water daily. However, the water pressure on the top floor is incredibly low, making showers quite uncomfortable. Downstairs, there's a convenience store and a few restaurants. It's quite close to Lotte Duty Free, but Shilla Duty Free is about a ten-minute walk away. Public transport is very convenient though.

The room size was decent. We were assigned a room above the casino, and because parts of the casino were under renovation, it was quite noisy. The location is indeed excellent, directly opposite the Shilla Duty Free Shop, and it's a short walk to Baojian Road with many dining options nearby. However, the most perplexing thing was that while toothbrushes being charged for is somewhat understandable, the swimming pool also incurs a fee! Children are charged, and even adults who are just accompanying and not swimming are charged. You can't even sit on a lounge chair without paying, which is just bizarre. I've stayed in countless hotels both domestically and internationally, and this is the first time I've encountered a hotel that charges for the pool. On top of that, after swimming for just 20 minutes, they blow a whistle, forcing you to get out and rest. And there were even suspicious, unknown creatures, possibly large cockroaches, in the hot tub.

Choosing Sono Belle Hotel for our family trip to Jeju was an excellent decision – it made traveling with kids a breeze! The hotel's location is superb, just a few minutes' walk from Hamdeok Beach. The gentle slopes and small waves make it super safe for kids to play in the sand and wade in the water, and it's easily accessible even with a stroller. Our ocean view room offered a fantastic vista, with a balcony directly facing the beautiful blue sea and sky. Waking up to the sunrise and enjoying the sea breeze in the evening made for incredible photos. The room itself was spacious and clean. The family room had ample space and came with a separate kitchen and a refrigerator, which was incredibly convenient for preparing baby food and warming milk. We even received a complimentary Korean meal kit upon check-in, which was easy to make and a lovely touch. The amenities are very family-friendly: free parking, stable WiFi, and a souvenir shop in the lobby. There are also plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby, making dining and shopping very convenient. Although there isn't a dedicated kids' club, the beach and surrounding walking paths offer plenty of opportunities for kids to burn off energy. Overall, it offers great value for money and is an ideal choice for a family vacation in Jeju.

Seamless check-in experience due to self check in kiosk. Staff was able to assist with storage of breast milk. Room was spacious with a spacious bath tub and a beautiful ocean view. However, gym was stuffy and no water filter or towels provided. So do take note. Basic gym equipments in a small room. Overall, still enjoyed my time here. If you’re a foreigner, do wait for the staff to finish checking your room before officially checking out. If you’re a local, I observed to be quite instant. So there is quite a local first, foreigners second service here. But to each its own. Just be patient and be happy.

The first thing I’m really impressed with is the excellent service. They reply to messages very quickly, and they answer every question. If you have any issues, you can contact them anytime and they’re always helpful. The hotel is located right in the city center, with lots of convenience stores and restaurants nearby. Even though I traveled alone, I still felt safe the whole time. The room is spacious and comfortable. It’s also super convenient for shopping because everything is within walking distance thanks to the central location.
