Hotels With breakfast in Jeollanam-do, South Korea

"After a satisfying stay at Sono Felice Del Pino in Goseong, Gangwon Province last winter, we decided to visit Jindo Sol Beach this summer. The resort itself was perfect: from the immaculate facilities and stunning landscaping to the friendly service provided by the front desk staff, everything was exceptional. However, our evening was completely ruined by a very unpleasant experience at one of the on-site chicken restaurants. When I went down to place a takeout order, I was told to return in 15 minutes. Upon my return, I was informed that my order had been missed and was asked to wait an additional 5 minutes. However, it took much longer than 5 minutes before our food was finally brought out. I completely understand that mistakes happen, so I wasn't upset simply because my order was initially missed. However, what truly disappointed and angered me was the staff member's attitude: instead of even a simple apology, they unceremoniously dropped the food on the table without a word and walked away. I wasn't asking for anything extraordinary; I simply expected my order to be ready on time. And if an order is missed, I believe a basic courtesy, even a simple apology, is standard practice for anyone in business. I even questioned if I was being overly sensitive, but after checking the reviews for this particular restaurant, I found numerous accounts of similar experiences from other customers. Of course, I understand that Sol Beach merely has a contractual relationship with this specific vendor. However, given the numerous promotional videos for this particular establishment found throughout the resort, I believe Sol Beach has a responsibility to oversee its operations to some extent, if only to protect its own image. Many reviews highlighted the sentiment that customers are treated without basic courtesy, as if they are merely one-time visitors who will buy once and never return. Is it fair to assume that these numerous customers will only visit Sol Beach once? It's hard to argue that poor management of these affiliated establishments won't directly affect Sono Resort's revenue. Overall Verdict: Jindo Sol Beach staff and facilities were perfect, but the service at the affiliated vendor was appalling. *(Note: The other on-site establishment, which would have been pictured here, provided excellent service. Please excuse the absence of photos.)"

"I visited after the Hwasun Red Cliffs tour. Perhaps because it was remodeled, the facilities were clean and the bedding was nice and fluffy, so I slept well. When I woke up the next day and enjoyed the sauna at the hot spring, my fatigue was completely relieved. There are a lot of things to do in the resort, such as a game room, bowling alley, and karaoke room, and there was also BBQ chicken, so I enjoyed my meal. I couldn't go to Aquana because I was tired, but I plan to use it the next time I visit. It's a shame that I couldn't use the outdoor hot springs because it was the off-season. But overall, I was satisfied! There's Gwangju Lake Park nearby, so it's great for a walk~"

"조식이 선착순 마감이라 걱정되었는데 8시에 갔을때 밥과 반찬이 다 있었네요. 평일이라 그랬는지 모르겠네요. 한식이었고 나물반찬도 많았습니다. 시설은 전반적으로 괜찮았어요. 평화광장에서 거리가 좀 있구요. 소음 있습니다. 옆방 물소리도 들려요."

"I intentionally booked a room without a city view, but despite staying two nights, they assigned me a room with no view at all. I heard the room was supposed to have a view of the sea fountain, but all I could see was the motel next door, so I couldn't even open the curtains. If this was going to happen, they should have just not given me an end room, or at least told me in advance. They said it was the newest and largest hotel in Mokpo, so I tried it, but the water pressure was really weak. The breakfast was good. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it."

"Since there are no hotels above 4 stars in Mokpo, I moved to Yeongam and stayed there. Yeongam and Mokpo are so close that the location was the same, and the accommodation was clean. (The sheets were a little torn, but that's okay.) Cleanliness is the most important! There were no inconveniences related to the accommodation, but when I arrived on the day, there was a wedding at the hotel. The parking lot was full. There was a lot of double parking. The hotel definitely needs to improve this part. They park in front of the lobby, which is really I've never seen this before in all the hotels and resorts. Really, guests should use a different place than the parking lot. The hotel needs to manage it."
