Lotte Hotel Busan

We went to Busan for the lantern fest at Samgwansa temple and looked for a hotel in Seomyeon: many buses go from Seomyeon directly to the temple or you can even walk there (3km), it takes only 25 minutes to go to Haeundae or Gamcheon village, less to Busan station. Lotte Hotel proved to be an excellent choice: rooms with spectacular views, all the furniture looked newly restored, very nice lounges, excellent wifi, good coffee, beautiful external pool, everyone extremely helpful — we will stay there again, when in Busan.

beautiful hotel room v comfie with fab view of busan. Room decor a little dated but didnt make a difference to our amazing stay, comfie beds lovely bathroom, spacious. breakfast buffet extravagant. Had a little issue one morning re charge for breakfast being much higher than pervious morning due to a misunderstanding re booking it the night before but this was quickly sorted out by nice guy who worked at entrance to breakfast area. booked a massage while there at extra cost was good, didnt use gym but one use was free over our 4 night stay. Hopefully will get to use the gorgeous outdoor pool on our next stay at the lotte Busan.

This is a high end hotel so it’s quite expensive but I would say the price is very worth it. The breakfast was exceptional, definitely one of the best hotel buffets I’ve ever had, rooms very spacious and comfortable. It’s airy and light, the windows are massive and views are good. There is a spa, outdoor and indoor pool, fitness, restaurant and direct entry into the Lotte shopping mall. The location in Seomyeon is also great. It’s a lively area with many restaurants, cafés, shops, clubs and bars. Even though the area is quite loud, it’s very calm and quiet in the hotel. The hotel is on the green and red metro lines by which you can easily reach most of the popular tourist areas of Busan

Thank you Lotte Hottel especially for Mr.Bryan (concierge / luggage / helper), who works close to the main door. I know politeness and attention are part of the protocol. But I was having trouble, and Mr.Bryan helped with orientation and patience to calm me.  I know it is not polite to give money or gifts to the hotel employees, so I try to thank him in another manner. Mr Bryan, you really helped me to have a good experience in Busan. I will return to Lotte; if I am lucky, I will be there during your watch!

The outdoor pool was awesome and I loved that the evening session was adults only! The hotel staff was wonderful and easy to communicate with. The location is amazing, the subway is easy to access from the hotel to get around Busan and the food court under the hotel was cheap and full of options (cafes, restaurants, street food etc). We also did room service one night and had a chicken and beer party while watching Kdramas, And the room service was fast (25 mins wait) and delicious.
