Hilton Gyeongju

“Good but not great”

It’s an old hotel and corridor smell reminds you of that. Rooms have been renovated though and mine was very spacious. Lack of electrical outlets by the bed was strange though. Dinner buffet was overpriced for the quality (85K) and 12K for local beer was adding insult to injury.

“Good hotel but not the location”

The hotel itself is very comfortable. While not luxurious, it's well-appointed and the rooms are a nice size and well-furnished, including with robes and slippers. Staff was very helpful, with decent English (although not as fluent as at the 5 star hotels we stayed at in Busan and Seoul). Decent fo… lisää

The hotel itself is very comfortable. While not luxurious, it's well-appointed and the rooms are a nice size and well-furnished, including with robes and slippers. Staff was very helpful, with decent English (although not as fluent as at the 5 star hotels we stayed at in Busan and Seoul). Decent four star breakfast, eastern and western. The big problem if you're sight-seeing or like good food is location. There's an amusement park and a lake very nearby, but none of the historic sights, nor an array of good restaurants. A 20-30 minute taxi ride is needed, but at least the cost is low - under $10 U.S. The hotel's restaurant has a large buffet, but a limited a la carte menu, and is IMO overpriced.

“Front office great, rest underwhelming”

The rest of the experience was underwhelming. Rooms are slightly worn-down with visible damages to corners of furniture, room itself a bit old-fashioned but ok. Front office and service were both great with everyone giving us best possible attention. Swimming pool is highly frequented by guests, so… lisää

The rest of the experience was underwhelming. Rooms are slightly worn-down with visible damages to corners of furniture, room itself a bit old-fashioned but ok. Front office and service were both great with everyone giving us best possible attention. Swimming pool is highly frequented by guests, so that water gets slightly milky by the end of the afternoon as filter cannot keep up. Breakfast is good with lots of choices.

“Not the best Hilton we've stayed in”

Having stayed in a lot of Hilton hotels this was a little disappointing. The Italian restaurant was closed and we thought the other dining options were quite pricey. Breakfast was included and it was good with plenty of options. The hotel is certainly out of the way if you are wanting to visit the historical areas of Gyeongju - you would need taxis everywhere. We also found it interesting that there were lots of signs / notices in the room about what not to do eg "Don't bring food in". We would look at choosing a different option if we visited again.

Hotel booked via tour operator. Supposed to be 4 star.Arrived at the hotel around 530 pm, checked in, freshened up and wanted to eat at the Chinese restaurant at the hotel. No availability since we did not have a reservation. We were given a slot later on. Too tired from our trip & the buffet restaurant was very crowded- so we decided to order room service. Very poor options. We are in Korea & had no choice but to order pizza. Very greasy. It was the harvest festival time , hence no options for food for in house guests in the restaurant.
