Gongju Fishing Vacations

The women at the desk were really nice. The room was clean and perfectly fine for a budget stay. The only downside is of course it's a "love hotel," so twice during my stay I was woken up by a woman screaming her head off, so you have to be willing to risk that happening. Otherwise the stay was fine!

Good, but I didn't like Room No. because Asians have numbers they prefer, but the hoel just had Room numbers that I didn't like. Besides that interior design, view, and cleanness of this hotel is fantastic.

Great hotel, wish the check in process was a bit faster.

My son and I enjoyed staying at this hotel and it exceeded our expectations. It was clean, modern, luxurious and the staff was friendly. Also, unlike many other hotels in Korea, it allowed us to change our reservation which was very important to us, given our hectic and ever-changing itinerary. I highly recommend it!

Let me first say that our visit to Chungju was a great success! If I ever find myself in Chungju again, I don't know that I would stay anywhere else. One of the challenges you will find is that not all the hotels in Chungju can be found online. There are plenty of other hotels, some were listed...most were not. So if you're traveling from far away and want reservations ahead of time, your choices are few. From what I saw, other hotels were not in much of a better location. I can't speak to the inside of the other hotels either. The Grand Hotel has it's pros and cons. I'll start with the staff. The staff was marvelous! With the language barrier, they did their best to make sure our needs were accommodated. From taxi rides to special requests and all the questions in between, nothing but smiles and solid effort to work with us. You work long enough and eventually what you're trying to convey comes across and they do their best to accommodate you. The location; not the best. It's in more of an industrial section of town...actually on the outskirts. Although it is within walking distance of the train station, but a taxi ride from the bus station. You will not find much in the way of restaurants or things to see close by. My son and I did take a taxi to the local soccer stadium for a game and walked back to the hotel...20 minutes tops. That 20 minute walk is awesome. When you leave the hotel, turn left and simply walk. Take a map or use your phone. Don't forget your wifi hotspot!
