Hotels near Daegaksa Temple, Daegu

The room, service, and food were all excellent! Easily better than any hotel I've stayed at in the US costing at least twice as much. Breakfast was fantastic every morning with lots of options and all freshly prepared on site. The hotel was an easy walk from a huge number of dining options and a nice park. The front desk staff were friendly and spoke excellent English which was not expected, but certainly appreciated. I would absolutely recommend the hotel to anyone staying in the area.

The room is spacious and the location is super convenient, just a 5-10 minute walk from Dongdaegu Station and Shinsegae Department Store. There's a popular red bean bread shop and Olive Young right next to the hotel, making shopping very easy.

The hotel is dated & furniture & amenities are very old. However, the hotel provides 24hrs unlimited coffee, tea, biscuits at the lobby. You can even get a extra hand tower from the lobby self service counter. Breakfast is limited but they have a cute instant noodles cooking machine which is very convenient if you wish to have Korean instant noodles for breakfast.

I expected this hotel to be a five-star property, but the service felt more like a motel. The front desk staff were not well trained and were unable to clearly answer my questions. The hotel would benefit from renovations and service improvements to meet five-star standards. However, the location is excellent and perfect for walking around the lake.

I recently stayed at a hotel in Daegu and had a wonderful experience. The hotel offers a superb view, making the stay even more enjoyable and relaxing. One of the best things about this hotel is its strategic location — it is conveniently surrounded by several tourist attractions, all within walking distance. This made exploring the city very easy and stress-free. The room was comfortable and well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was pleasant. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Daegu, especially for those who appreciate a great view and easy access to nearby attractions.

It's great value for money, very economical. The room has a large bathtub, and the bathroom even has sauna steam – it's wonderful! I bought a bath bomb and enjoyed two relaxing baths. The room is spacious, the internet is excellent, and the open-air glass roof lets in plenty of sunlight. There are convenience stores and various restaurants nearby, making it very convenient. The subway exit is just about 200 meters to the right after you exit the room – Donggu Hall Station. It's very close to Dongdaegu Train Station. You can walk to the train station, and there's a Lotte Department Store shopping plaza near the train station. The subway station itself has all sorts of delicious food and shopping options.

Really helpful and friendly hotel. Opposite a cool vinyl cafe and in an amazing location right near the shopping street. Will stay again.

【Great Location & Cozy Stay – But Shower Needs Work】! I stayed here with my mum for 5 nights over Christmas. The location is fantastic—just steps from Daegu Station and Lotte Department Store, with convenience stores nearby. The room was spacious, clean, and warm, with plenty of space for luggage. Beds with electric underblankets were amazing— we slept so well and felt refreshed for the next day! Staff were friendly too. The only downside was the shower experience. The bathroom ventilation fan couldn’t be turned off, so it felt cold. The shower head holder was positioned too high, so we had to hold it by hand. The water pressure was intense and strong—honestly, it felt like needles hitting the skin, which was bit painful when the shower head was close...we had to hold it farther away, but then the cold airflow made us shiver. Shampooing and washing became a juggling act between turning off the shower (and feeling chilled) or holding the shower head with one hand so it was hard to shower comfortably. Finally, we ended up trembling while getting dressed. Overall, this hotel is excellent value for money given its location and cleanliness. Despite the shower issue, we would definitely stay here again and hope the bathroom gets warmer next time with a gentler shower head!

While it is a budget hostel, and the location is a bit of a walk inside the back street, I did not expect it to be too luxury or anything special. What was strange was that eventhough I arrived before 10PM, there was nobody at the reception desk, and I had to call to be able to speak with someone for check in and being directed to a self check in machine. With my broken korean language skill, it was difficult but I made it at the end. The room has some black moulds and I had to plug off the mini fridge to be able to use the power point to charge my phone, mini fan and whatever else. And in the morning that mini fridge has produced some water on the floor after being thawed. Towels were provided but they were smelly. The bottom of the toilet were not sealed properly to the floor (the sillicone joint has worn off). The room is in need of renovation. I managed to do the self check out when I went downstairs the next morning (with the same machine). Then I realised I couldn’t get out via the entrance door that I got in the night before, because it was locked at around 11AM. After I rang the owner again, he directed me to leave by the back door. Then I was trying to find my way at the back area to go out to the street and catch a taxi. This hostel by far was the worst place I have stayed ever. I was glad I only booked for 1 night.

I gave 1 extra star because the man at the desk kept my bag safe when it needed to be. So he did the job well. Otherwise, zero stars will be given for the service of the old lady at the desk. She was unfriendly and insulting!!! First, she doesn't speak English, so she should use a translator to communicate with the customers. Instead, she started talking in an unfriendly way in Korean when she knew I couldn’t speak Korean. Second, because I don't understand and she doesn't understand me, I have to ask my Korean friend to talk with her. She is still not friendly. And not try to understand for me, because I don't know what my friend and her were talking about. So she showed me that she got annoyed with my misunderstanding of her. Third, and the most horrible of all. She was very rude the next day. I came to her desk, because I needed something. I have just shown my face and wanna say hi, with a friendly look at her. But she started to behave rudely right away before I could say hi. By saying something loudly in Korea and weirdly using both hands and looking angry. So I felt very uninvited to ask something. So I go away from her. Back to my room. I found my stuff (toothbrush and other things of mine) that I forgot in the other room. That I forgot to take with me, on the floor!!!!!! The worst there is a desk for face washing next to the door. So she could put it in there. It's so onhygien with my toothbrush without a cover put on the floor. I have never gotten that horrible service before. Even when I go the a very cheap hostel! I was in a good mood to discover this city. And these are bad memories I got from her. She has just ruined my good mood for the holiday there. My friends suggested that I go to this Motel. Now my friends know how stupid this service I got from this lady. They won't come anymore in the future! If the old lady doesn’t like foreigners then she shouldn't work there. So it won’t ruin someone's holiday. I hope the manager of their company does something with the service that the lady gave to the customer. I don’t complain usually. But this is unacceptable! I am planning to go regularly to Daegu because my friend lives there. This motel is in a perfect location for me. But now I would rather go to a hotel that is far away than this Motel. So you have just lost 1 regular customer because of this stupid service. I am still angry if I think about this service with my toothbrush on the floor.
