Hot Springs Hotels in Jeju Province, South Korea

I stayed during cherry blossom season, and it was super convenient to walk to Jeonnong-ro. If you're heading to the duty-free shop in the new city, it's just a five-minute walk to the bus stop. The road in front of the hotel wasn't congested either, making public transport and taxis easily accessible. Everything was great, except for getting to the old city beach area, which was a bit inconvenient (we opted for a taxi).

A great hotel for a vacation! The room was spacious, and the balcony offered a nice view. The hot spring water truly had mineral deposits, leaving my skin smooth and comfortable after a soak. The front desk staff were polite and enthusiastic, and there was even a Chinese-speaking butler who showed us to our room and explained the facilities in detail. Due to the underfloor heating and air conditioning, the room was quite dry in winter, but the front desk promptly responded when we requested a humidifier and bottled water. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious, and the restaurant's view was breathtaking. The nearby Podo Museum is worth a visit. It was also easy to get a taxi to Seogwipo; an Uber arrived in about 5 minutes. If I come to Jeju Island again, I would definitely consider staying here, and I'm grateful to all the hotel staff for the excellent experience.

Quiet place with good restaurant and a small convenience store. Rooms are very nice. Outdoor jacuzzis were filthy. You have to wear a swimming cap to use the pool, even if you’re bald and have a beard (they’re very strict about that, like in most Korean hotels). This will never make sense to me. Hot springs are gender separated. Also important to know if you’re not from Asia: there is no „fun swimming“ culture. No running, jumping and splashing around. You wear a swimming cap and goggles and you swim laps. That’s it. If you’re from the western hemisphere and travel with your kids, this is new!

I'm on a business trip to Jeju Island, and I booked the Lotte Hotel because it's close. The accommodations are clean and great for the price. I'll book it again next time I'm on a business trip to Seogwipo, Jeju Island.
