Benikea Hotel Haeundae

Great location, the hotel is a little dated but well kept. The elevators and the elevator parking garage are long waits. Make sure to submit your parking ticket to get your car out of elevator parking garage early or you could wait 30min.

We really enjoyed both of location and the friendliness of the staff!

Everything is acceptable. But the water was too hard.

Water is too hard.

We could not check in 15 minutes early! And the site said free-parking, but that is limited free parking. We had to park at a public parking lot and pay 15,000 won and walk 2 blocks to hotel. I found this hotel cheaper on expedia after I booked and sent to Hotels.com but never heard back from them. The difference was significant! This is ok last resort hotel for 1 or 2 nights.

Great big bathtub that can fit 2 people easily, many places to eat near by. Overall it was worth it and good experience.

When we entered the room, we noticed a dirty tissue on the sink which questioned how clean the room was. The layout was very weird. Right when we entered, we see a sink in front of us, a separate room for the toilet by the entrance, and a room for the shower in one corner. Not sure if it's all hotels in Korea or if it's just this hotel but we weren't able to make a call to a nearby store. The phone is only useful for making calls to the front desk or room service which I found to be odd. The front desk didn't seem to be too helpful. I asked the front desk lady about good places to eat nearby in perfect Korean and she didn't understand me until her coworker had to repeat what I said to her. Better off doing research on our own.

The front desk agent who assisted check in was terrible. No greeting no smile and looked like she was angry. I guess that’s the hotel standard. The room was spacious ans comfy.

Really nice hotel. It is good to have a hot spring in room during the cold weather.

That hotel room was clean and tidy, the bed was extremely comfy, the room had everything we needed, even the toilet was great. The only thing I didn’t like was that the blinds in the room weren’t completely black out but they were good enough :)
