1. Hidden Hill Bulguksa Hotel

Bulguk-dong, 2.3 km from Seokguram Grotto

"The rooms have Ondol, the Korean traditional heated floor. It was perfact for our cold rainy night. This place is newly remodeled and the owner herself decorated each rooms which look cozy, simple, and feminine. Me and my 4 friends stayed all together instead of 2 separate rooms, and she gave us all separate beddings which was perfact for us. It is at the walking distance to Bulguksa temple and restaurants and cafes are everywhere. We loved the owners hospitality."

"This hotel was amazing. The price point for what you get is incredible. The price includes your breakfast, dinner, and several drinks. You get an hour at the spa each day, which is a cozy jacuzzi with some incense and calm music. You also get a free polaroid to take photos on as well as access to a speaker. The actual place is incredibly clean and relaxing. There are some trails around the property as well as on the lake. I would literally come back to Korea to stay here, so worth it. The staff...

Top Seokguram Grotto Hotel Reviews

Coolstay Hotel

8/10 Good

"Le déjeuner était diversifié en quantité suffisante . Le personnel l était courtois et serviable."

The K Hotel Gyeongju

8/10 Good

"This hotel is quite dated. The bathroom was clean but needed for a very thorough cleansing especially the ceiling. Water mark/mold was present. The room we had a fantastic view showing 2 temple like structures and mountains. Breath taking. The room size was quite large with 2 beds, a desk with a stool, TV, and a refrigerator. It only had electrical outlets almost hiding underneath the desk and next to the refrigerator not near the beds. You need to pay to use the gym or spa or swimming pool. Again the facilities were old. I would recommend this hotel because it is located in a very convenient tourist area with lots of eateries and amusement parks, and its proximity to many of Gyeongju's historical sites. Very kind front desk too."

Lahan Select Gyeongju

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel with excellent staff - we loved our stay - however the room can get really warm and the temp dial didn’t work for us - otherwise a great place to stay with an extensive breaks fast buffet selection - possibly one of the best I have had. I also want to mention that my husband lost on of his headphones in an obscure hole under the vanity in the bathroom and the staff went out of their way to retrieve it. We had lost hope but they somehow managed to get it out for us. So grateful"

Hotel Palace Gyeongju

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very friendly staff and some handy extras - umbrellas to use in torrential rain; postcards, stamps and a postbox; self-service coffee throughout the day and an excellent breakfast. Very good value for money and lovely, spacious and clean room. Cannot fault this hotel in any way and would recommend highly to anyone visiting Gyeongju."
