Find 3-Star Hotels in Busan

We stayed at this property for a couple nights last month when we had our family emergency in Korea. The property is located in a central area by Yeonsan station - Line1. But it was a little difficult to find it by car/taxi. You should just look up for Hyatt place instead of HLB. The room was big enough for family of 4 - nice and clean and there's an upstairs without furniture or bed - literally nothing. We moved our sofa up there for kid's bed. There's also a laundry machine under the stove which takes forever to wash and dry (3-4 hours) and you need to keep the room key inserted while its run. Otherwise, the machine will stop working. It's got a great city view and stunning day and night. They had a little stove and fridge but no kitchen dishes/pots/utensils were available. Thankfully, there was a convenient store downstairs and lots of restaurants near by. The most disappointing part of this hotel was that they charge for using a swimming pool per person. It was not even cheap or amazing pool rather small. We didn't even bother almost spend $100 per day to use the pool. Forget it! However, The staffs were nice and very helpful and tried to keep our suitcases when we had our early checkout. Overall, I don't think we will go back to the hotel for that much money and with hidden cost.

2026.10.10 The location is right next to Busan Station, with an Olive Young just across the street and a CU convenience store on the ground floor. The subway station for Busan Station is also very close, just a 3-minute walk. It's a very convenient hotel, especially as a last stop before heading back home. The Korean receptionist spoke fluent Japanese and smoothly rattled off the hotel facilities and important notices like a crosstalk performer. The top floor is the 21st, and we were assigned to the 16th floor, which was great. For floors 11 and above, you can't take elevator No. 1; you need to use the two elevators on the opposite side. We didn't have to wait long, and the elevators were fast. You need to tap your key card outside the elevator before entering, which felt very secure. The room was very clean and tidy, and the mattress had a medium firmness. At night, we heard some chanting from outside Busan Station—probably a protest—but it stopped on time and didn't really bother us. The bathtub was very Japanese—small and with a unique color—making it feel like being back in a Japanese hotel while in Korea. Breakfast the next morning started at 6:30, with the last entry at 8:30, and ended at 9:00. I went down to the second floor just before 7:00; although it was early, quite a few guests were already eating. Table turnover was fast. The breakfast had a very Korean style, featuring kimchi pancakes and various types of kimchi, though the tomato pasta was a bit too sweet. Another memorable item was the oden fish cakes and konjac blocks, and the variety was surprisingly rich. The caffe latte was sweet and delicious. You can also take a cup to-go after finishing your meal. After check-out, you can store your luggage for free until evening. They give you a luggage tag, which made picking it up feel very secure. There's free instant coffee available at the front desk on the first floor, and a microwave and public restroom in the lobby for use before or after check-out. A really great experience overall.

Everything was perfect! The hotel is conveniently located near Busan Station, with Exit 6 being the nearest exit to the hotel. There’s also a convenience store about 5 minutes’ walk away. Housekeeping is provided daily, including refilling the drinking water, making the bed, emptying the trash, and changing the towels. Recycling and separating trash can be quite a headache when travelling in Korea, so it was really convenient that we didn’t have to worry about it during our stay! The room also has an LG Styler wardrobe, which was really helpful for drying and freshening up our clothes, especially if you’re visiting during winter. The only downside is that the room is slightly small, so we couldn’t fully open both of our 28-inch suitcases at the same time. There’s also no safe box in the room. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!

At first, I was a bit disappointed with the room as we paid extra for a seaview, only to discover that a big building was right in the middle of the said view. We had informed the hotel that these were our first 2 days trip without the kids in 15years (!) and hoped to have a quiet room but we were place right next to the elevator, so not so great for morning noises though they were limited I have to admit. Besides this small déception, the room was quite nice. Very spacious. The bedding was extremely good, from pillows and blankets to mattress, so comfortable. But the best overall were the pool and jacuzzi. What a treat to be able to swim on a rooftop, with the ocean view. The rooftop is open until 10pm so we could experience swimming under the sun in the afternoon and under the moon in the night. Night view is beautiful. The pool and jaccuzis are heated so even though the weather was fresh, we could enjoy the water anytime. We found the hotel and rooms very clean. Staff was very professional and welcoming. Location was great as we had everything around: beach, restaurants, bars, shops, access to the Blue Line park... It was very easy to order taxi to go further away when necessary. We will definitely come back to Baymond, we loved our stay there!

View - If you are keen in wharf / harbor view, this hotel (see images) is along the harbour next to wharf, Songdo, so there is no beach on the wharf. At 4am you can hear commotion at the wharf, interesting for a different view from city or sea view. Nearest Songdo beach is still at distance, it is not at door step. Booked a large room for family of 4, comes with 1 Queen bed, 1 single, the last pax ended on the floor with Futons. (Although I indicated i had 4 pax, housekeeper does not seem to be aware, replenishes only for 3 pax?). Small hand towels are issued as bath towel, just be aware. Quite common for smaller hotel accommodation here (inn, AirBnB). Floor heater, water heater works, daily housekeeping. Has bath tub not used at all for winter. Good balcony for sitting in the cold to watch the wharf bustle. Pax using futon had a few bites by bugs, not sure if flew in from outside the room, else the room is clean. Nice open terrace at roof top with telescope to look into Lotte mall at distance, and the open sea after the bridge on the right. Complimentary breakfast offering at basement kitchen is available until 9AM (not 9.30am) - kitchen staff will remind you to finish up at close to 9am, and please clear your dishes at collection area, discard leftovers, return cultery, utensils. Breakfast spread : Cereal with milk (only on weekend), ONE slice of toast with jam, egg/s, one fruit or yoghurt, one coffee/tea, ONE juice, one instant noodles (if you want). Only tried for first morning, other mornings has similar menu on the wall. Staff - looks like husband wife team. Friendly to greet at reception at upper level. Safety wise - As accommodation is located at harbour with large prime movers and containers movements, it is better to travel in groups to look out for each other. I note the drivers are generally careful to look out for pedestrians on the harbour, wharf. Can be a bit dark at night in the surrounding area of the accommodation. Plus point - Double entrance door which allow you to lock inner door in case main door is being accessed externally. Location - About 20mins or so by bus to Busan shopping area where the crowd is. Not too far, The more popular tourist spots, beach sites is further up northeast at Haeundae beach, which is about 1 hour bus ride away. Pricing -, for the pricing, there are better known hotel chains going at more economic rates. So need to do proper research before booking. Else pleasant stay, simple, large room, no fanfare.

The hotel's location is truly fantastic! It's just a few minutes' walk from the subway station, and the surrounding area is great for exploring. There are plenty of food options, a market nearby, and the beach is also very close. You can even walk to Haeundae Station from here. Strolling along the beach was incredibly relaxing. Regarding the accommodation, check-in is strictly after 3 PM; not even 2:30 PM is allowed. English communication was very good, and having a Wowpass machine in the lobby was super convenient. Breakfast was average, but they have a ramen machine, which is a plus! The dining area is small, but they manage breakfast by assigning time slots, which is great because it prevents everyone from crowding together. The room is small and can't fit two large suitcases. The desk lamp was also broken; I had to go to the lobby to ask for a replacement. From the balcony, you can catch a small glimpse of the beach, but the balcony itself looked like it hadn't been cleaned in ages, covered in dust. The general cleaning seemed quite perfunctory; there were a bunch of stickers next to the coffee table (probably left by the previous guest, who clearly lacked manners). I took photos to document everything, please see the pictures.

Exit 12 of seomyeon metro but have 15steps of stairs challenge carrying your luggage to/from the metro exit. Surrounding is market / eatery. Not much on shopping. Underground shopping 60% is senior clothings & nearer to main station then some up trend design. Bujeon morning market difficult to find breakfast. All eatery stalls are not ready by 9am. The standard gimbap worth Q at 3000Won. Gukbap street many selections starting from 9,500won per bowl.

The room was OK, but the service was poor, especially the breakfast. Except for eggs and fruit on the first day, there was no more. I could only eat instant noodles, and the breakfast cost 150 per person.

I had to make a last-minute reservation during the holiday season, so I couldn't get a detailed look. The location was a bit disappointing, as it was about a 40-50 minute drive to Seomyeon, Gwangalli, and Haeundae. However, for the price - the room was spacious, the facilities were good, and the service (a simple breakfast was provided) was decent. However - When I checked in, there was a toothbrush under the sink that someone had dropped. The air conditioning was too cold on power mode and too hot on other modes - it didn't seem to adjust well. The air conditioning was quite noisy, so those with sensitive skin might have trouble sleeping. There was no ambient noise (since it's near an industrial complex, it was very quiet during the holiday).

Pros: The staff were warm and helpful. There was even a Korean-speaking oppa who could communicate in Chinese, and other colleagues spoke English very well, which was convenient. We needed to book an escape room online, and when we asked the staff for help, they booked it for me on their computer and even called the venue to explain the situation, which I greatly appreciated. The room came with a microwave and a mini-fridge, making it very convenient to heat up our own breakfast. The shower had excellent water pressure, and the staff helped us get hot water ready, which was very convenient. The water quality in Korea is so good that my hair didn't frizz after washing, unlike when I'm back home. The same goes for my face; because of the good water quality, my lotion and BB cream applied smoothly, whereas back home I can only use face cream, and my skin still feels a bit dry – sadly, I can't bring this water home! The location is right in Haeundae, at the end of the street leading to the beach. However, the elevator goes directly to the subway station on the B1 level, which was very helpful as it rained quite a bit during our stay. It is indeed the furthest hotel from the beach on this street, but it's still only a pleasant seven or eight-minute walk. Olive Young is nearby, and convenience stores like GS25 are also very accessible. We also had some delicious Korean beef. The location mainly depends on personal needs; I usually prefer places closest to the subway station, so I was very satisfied with this aspect. The hotel's soundproofing is excellent; it has a balcony, and the windows are thick, so when the windows and balcony glass door are closed, you can barely hear any outside noise. It was very quiet. Cons: This is a serviced apartment with a small kitchen, like those open-plan studio apartments you see struggling female leads live in on K-dramas. Although there are four elevators, with two serving the lower floors, we often had to wait a long time. I'd read about this in reviews while planning but didn't pay much attention, only to find out it was true. During the rainy days, going up and down frequently from the hotel was quite frustrating. It might be better if you only leave in the morning and return at night. You must allow plenty of time for check-out, as it's nearly impossible to squeeze into an elevator with luggage. The mattress was too soft; it felt like I was constantly fighting gravity while sleeping. I wasn't the only one; my child also felt very uncomfortable on the first night. There were also yellow stains on the sheets that looked like they wouldn't wash out, which for a hotel, was a bit off-putting. During our stay, there was a sudden power outage – the first time in my life I've experienced one at a hotel – and someone also accidentally triggered the fire alarm. However, for a short trip, the usual price might be acceptable. Since we were traveling with a child during the summer, we couldn't pay too much of a premium, and the overall experience didn't quite match the price. In summary: Excellent staff service and good location.
