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."

My husband and I kept tossing all night long as it was extremely uncomfortable to feel the metal springs on our body. We were just glad that it was only one night say. shampoo/conditioner...

Top Seokguram Grotto Hotel Reviews

Coolstay Hotel

8/10 Good

"Located near bus stops, the hotel’s facilities are well-maintained. The staff is quite attentive, and the breakfast buffet offers good options to suit various tastes. The room is spacious, and the bathroom is a good size. The only drawback is that the automated light controls are located on the headboard and remain lit at all times, which makes it difficult to fall asleep at night."

Lahan Select Gyeongju

8/10 Good

"It is mainly a tour group hotel than an exclusive five star resort that we had hoped for. It is away from the main city and any restaurants. You need a taxi to go for breakfast and meals. Even the dining option which I we confess did not use is divided into time slots to cater to tour groups and the heavy rush. Room was big and had a balcony and beautiful views. The staff were helpful and explained that nearest place to have food is a forty minute walk hence we skipped breakfast and opted for a brunch in the beautify city centre. The decor appear dated although the website states it had a serious refurbishment, it may be that we were in an older section. Five star choices are limited in Gyeongju as will need to accept it. Nothing special but very manageable for a 2 night stay"

Gyeongju H Avenue Hotel Bulguksa

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was clean, and the staff were so helpful ( they even watched our laundry go through its washing and drying cycle)"

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."

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."

Sono Calm Gyeongju

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay and loved all the details of incorporating Korean modern touch in the suites and hall ways."

Art in Tiara

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing price for a beautiful property. Staff was friendly and kind. They let us check in early and the check in/out was easy. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to anyone visiting Gyeongju. Spacious rooms would be great for families"

KINOCK Pet Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We did not bring a dog but a total hoot (bark) to be among devoted dog owners and their pets at the hotel. Great concept and just fine for just humans. Loved being in the lake during our visit. All good!"

Benikea Swiss Rosen Hotel

8/10 Good

"Was very nice. All the staff where super helpful and is very close to many beautiful viewpoints."
