Hotels Near Hwangwooji Coast in Seogwipo

This location was great. The first room I checked into had a faulty washing machine, but they switched my room quickly. They brought fresh towels, bottled water, and instant coffee/tea everyday. I only say 4 on amenities because they didn’t have Netflix on the TV. I guess I was spoiled by the previous two hotels I stayed in.

The mattress is very comfortable and we slept very well and a small balcony to let in the fresh breeze from the sea. The location is near to the centre market where all the eateries and foods. Parking is easy. Everything is good not perfect but good enough.

First70 Hotel, Jeju, Korea - A Mix of Pros and Cons I recently had the opportunity to stay at First70 Hotel in Jeju, Korea and would like to share my experience. While the hotel’s location and service were commendable, I found certain aspects pertaining to cleanliness and amenities rather disappointing. Firstly, let me start with the positives. The hotel’s location is truly superb. Situated in a prime area of Jeju, it offers convenient access to popular attractions and transportation options. Whether you’re looking to explore the natural beauty of this picturesque island or indulge in shopping and dining experiences, First70 Hotel’s location is a definite advantage. The service provided by the staff at First70 Hotel was exceptional throughout my stay. From check-in to check-out, the hotel staff displayed professionalism and a genuine willingness to assist. They were attentive, responsive, and made sure all my needs were met promptly. The level of service truly enhanced my overall experience. However, there were certain areas where First70 Hotel fell short. Cleanliness was one such aspect that left much to be desired. I observed lackluster efforts in maintaining cleanliness standards within the rooms and public areas of the hotel. Stains on carpets, dusty surfaces, and subpar bathroom conditions were evident during my stay. Another disappointment was the state of amenities provided by First70 Hotel. While basic necessities were available, such as toiletries and towels, they seemed worn out or inadequate for a hotel aiming to provide a comfortable experience for its guests. Additionally, the absence of certain amenities that are commonly expected in hotels of similar caliber was quite noticeable. In conclusion, First70 Hotel’s location and service certainly make it an enticing option for travelers visiting Jeju. However, prospective guests should be aware that there are areas where improvement is needed - specifically in terms of cleanliness upkeep and provision of adequate amenities. It is my hope that management takes these concerns into consideration and takes necessary steps to rectify them, in order to provide a more satisfying experience for future guests.

Room was clean and had everything you need. There is no Room Service you have to pick up fresh towels etc. In the lobby. Self Service Laundry doesn‘t accept foreign cards. There is a convenient store in the hotel lobby. My room was with Mountain view which was nice. Bus stop is in front of the hotel.

Location of the hotel is good, very convenient. We were able to walk to most places. It is not too far from the Olle Traditional Market. It is near to bus stops where you can hop on to the city buses. The hotel staff are friendly and are able to speak simple English. The facilities are good (please note you have to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste, it seems like most hotel in Jeju do not provide such amenities), the room is clean, and the hotel do clean the room everyday with change of bedsheets and towels. Highly recommend. Good prices as well.

It’s definitely not a 5-star hotel: yes, the location is good with a wonderful view, but everything inside the building needs renovation. The beddings and towels were changed in a daily basis, which is a plus, but it was a big surprise that there was a fee to visit the gym, which is a part of the hotel - nevertheless, the guests must pay - the machines in the gyms are from the 1980s… The food in the hotel restaurant and cafe is highly overpriced.

In China, I know it is a national chain. This is a hotel in Seogwipo Innovation City. We provide decent service at a reasonable price. The rooms are narrow but satisfactory for the price. Toothpaste toothbrushes should be purchased separately. There was a parking tower but it seemed not to be operated and I had to park and walk in a public parking lot separately. There was no other amenities. Good thing was reasonable price and enough service, nothing to disappoint.

First of all, I reserved a garden view when making a reservation, but the garden overlooks the roundabout. Please note that the other side requires a poolside view. And since the hotel is located far from the main road, traveling by foot may be difficult. The room was in good condition and there was a convenience store next to the lobby, which was convenient.

The staff are friendly and professional when we need assistance. The room is very clean and bright, comfortable bed and pillows! Convenient locate to restaurants 、shops, waterpark(was good but towels not provided, bring your own or purchase at entry) and theme park (quite small). Free parking and Wi-Fi provided. BUT when the China and Taiwan tours arrived the vibe changed to feeling like we were immersed in a tour hotel in China. Housekeeping found it a challenge to replenish our amenities after the influx of the groups it seems they must have been overworked or understaffed - forgetting to replace old towels and remove our garbage and 3 consecutive days it happened during what was a 8 night booking we checked out early and went elsewhere the last 2 nights. The tours groups seemed to be most interested in the ****** in the Marriott. Of the 3 properties, this was the most peaceful - Shinhwa Hotel is STRICTLY for families with young kids in my opinion, Marriott not worth the extra (they include the pool $ in the price but if you don't swim or weather not good you have paid for it OR unless you want Marriott Points or interested in the ****** right below you and a lot of adult guests roaming around at late hours. We had the connecting room deal (KLOOK or Hotel direct booking only deal) - very good value.

I would rate our overall stay a 7/10. It wasn’t bad but it was a little pricey in comparison to the properties nearby and the swimming pool using cost is too high. Plus points * Near to the sunrise point ( walking distance) * Balcony * Room service everyday * Clean Washroom and toilet * Polite Staff Plus points / Negative Points ( depends from person to person) * Too quiet and takes a lot of time to go to touristy places * Not many affordable food options nearby, but does have fancy places and convenient stores nearby * Extra charge for using the pool is too high (10000 krw/ person / day. Negative Points * Cannot refill plastic bottles, despite of them having a drinking water station at the breakfast, they wouldn’t allow you to use it. it’s a little hypocrite as they don’t provide plastic amenities for green initiatives but when we said we don’t want plastic bottles everyday and just want to fill our water bottle, they politely declined. * A little more expensive than some hotels nearby this area.
