Disliked: Staff & service
It's too far from the nearest village. Bed sheet was not clean.
Beautiful property. The spa pools blu cost $3 USD t use. They have a beautiful arboretum and museum of the flora of Gaya mountain that is free. The hiking trails are easily accessed to the side of the property. Food at the hotel dining room is well presented and delicious. Great mountain air. We stayed in an annex which was only $44 USD per night booked ahead but when I checked online the day before our arrival the price had dropped to an incredible $30 USD per night.
This was a really lovely and convenient stay. The rooms are clean and very spacious. The staff were kind and helpful. The area is very quiet and picturesque.
A great place to unwind and relax after hiking Gayasan. We enjoyed the balcony with views of the mountains and no light pollution meant we could see stars. The bed was comfortable and the robes were a pleasant surprise. The public sauna was delightful and one highlight were the incredible amethyst stones. The staff was very courteous and attentive and could communicate well in English. The beer garden was unfortunately closed during our stay. The breakfast was delicious.
Staff doesn't know about the service provide to Hotels.com Gold membership benefit. I showed them the reservation confirmation email for upgrade the room but they ignored. Better find another place when I visit again
Here in South Korea they don’t tend to use a shower curtain so the bathroom is always a mess after showering. Lucky us that we learned to travel carrying our own blankets and pillow cases because despite being a 3 star hotel, they don’t provide those. Both days during breakfast we had to ask twice for our coffee. We had pork bbq at the restaurant and it wasn’t impressive. Restaurant, reception and spa staff is friendly.
Perfect location just in the middle of the mountain. The hotel is very well maintained, but because of the lack of proper curtains and light coming in the room at 5.00am we couldn't sleep too much.
The hotel is literally at the start of trailhead. Very convenient after a day hike. The place is very clean and tidy, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I had a pleasant stay. Thank you.
Perfect for an overnight stay after a long hike. Took one of the Ondol rooms. Liked the hotel grounds and surrounding gardens and paths. Very relaxing. Shower was lukewarm at best although tolerable as it was hot and humid that day.
Brand new with sauna. Meals are on the pricey side, but tasty. Services are very professional. Very clean and well maintained. Strongly recommend it if you are going to Haeinsa.
