The Rivertain Hotel was well located for our staty, a 10-15 min taxi ride away from the KTX station, the Intercity bus station was a very short walk away, handy to a large supermarket, local restaurants and attractions on foot. We had minimal interaction with any staff, reception spoke no English at check-in but no difficulties. Our room was well appointed, large enough for our luggage, comfortable mattress with 4 pillows, bottom sheet with thick quilt, small table and 2 chairs, facing a local street but double glazed windows provided us with a quiet night's sleep with air-conditioning. We enjoyed the large Smart TV with access to our Netflix account. There was a LG Steam cupboard in the room. The bathroom was a separate toilet and shower configuration with plenty of nice smelling toiletries. The included breakfast buffet was a real hit with the two of us, a good selection of Korean and Western dishes, no yoghurt though. The tariff was very reasonable, I highly recommend the Rivertain Hotel.

Great location. You can rent bikes down the street for $6 USD/day and return them at 9 pm. Bicycles can get you to all the main sites without advanced skill, though 15 minute ride-segments to reach it all. We didn't use taxis except to the Bulguksa Buddhist temple about 20 minutes outside of town, definitely worth the trip. Room is clean, breakfast gives a variety of Korean & western options, coffee machine available 24 hours/day. Don't miss the local market (Jungang), with night food stalls from 6-11 pm. $9 buys you a plastic tray with 4 options from different stalls, amazing variety of Korean delicacies. Small rooms, no facilities, doesn't matter because it's a comfortable room to sleep and you'll be out on this UNESCO museum of a city all day anyway. We've been twice and checked out other comparable hotels, nothing came close. For the average tourist, two nights covers this city well, one night is not enough.

The hotel was amazing clean, staff was very polite and spoke good english. The room was very big and the breakfast was good too - a mixture of eastern and western cuisine. Not sure why it was only a 2 star hotel, maybe because of no gym or restaurant but everything else was at minimum 3 star standard - it was more expensive than the other hotels nearby but I think it was definitely worth it. It was 5 mins walk from the express bus terminal. Unusual large amounts of hotels/motels around the streets nearby although I felt safe walking alone at weekend nights when I was there.

Great hotel, only 5mins walking to the bus station which was very convenient to arrive/leave the city (note that the train station is a bit further away) but at the same time very quiet street where you can hear anything from the road There are several places to eat around the hotel. Main tourist attractions were 15mins walking from the hotel but it's a nice walk through the main street. As a plus, the room had a LG Styler to refresh/clean your clothes which is a nice touch! Bathroom very nice as well, we had a bath instead of shower but it was still nice

Javier

hotel was in a older area, but right nesr the intercity bus terminal, making a transfer to Busan very easy (recommended). Also close to river and main attractions (tombs and palace) as well as local bus to out of town attractions. Heaps of local restaurants but not a great deal of English. Highly recommend little bossam diner 80m up the road. superb (see pic) not a lot of English at reception but all good. breaky included.... simple and interesting, making it all very good value. smallish room bit clean and simple
