Hotel Rest Seogwipo Reviews

Booked this hotel solely based on TWO REASONS: 1) There is a picture showing a washing machine INSIDE THE ROOM 2) “Mountain View” stated CLEARLY as a feature of the room type I have selected. When we arrived we got neither the Washing machine INSIDE THE ROOM nor he mountain view. I did a quick check on the rooms on the same floor and found other one of them has a front loading washing machine within the room. But the front desk insisted that based on my booking I am not entitled to either feature BECAUSE IN OUR BOOKING DETAILS INSIDE TRIP.COM app these were not stated as a room feature , EVEN THOUGH “MOUNTAIN VIEW” is clearly stated! I challenged him that it is clearly stated in trip.com but he hurriedly said "sorry once you've used the room we won't change it for you". Such disgusting service attitude! I crossed check in the trip.com app again and I was shocked to find that for this hotel "MOUNTAIN VIEW" was stated in EVERY ROOM TYPE. So I raised a dispute with Trip.com but guess what? TRIP.COM threw me under the bus and said "oh the property owner can't speak Korean so we will get a Korean speaking colleague to check.", After which we received a disgusting reply saying "you have Washing machine use on reception level and your room has a window" That's it. And to make it worse, they do not provide bath towels, only hand towels. Absolutely disgusting hotel service and an equally disgusting, dishonest service from trip.com! They don't understand it isn't the point of whether I need the washing machine or the mountain view, it is the pure dishonesty in the way they have conducted themselves that made me unhappy. Ps: other obvious stupidy of the room amenities, we are given acooking hob that was installed the wrong way; the hob was orientated such that the control knob is on the inside. Shows a lot of wrong going on with this hotel. I won't recommend this to anyone at all, there are better choices around within short walking distance!

Good to stay at seogwipo area. Close to many hot spot near seogwipo area. Cheap and affordable

Quite spacious, hotel has the cooker & washing machine. Location is good, walking distance to market and a lot of eateries. Halal food very hard to get, so we ended bought some ready-to-cook seafood & cook ourselves.

It was such a pleasant stay in Hotel Seogwipo. The location is convenient and it’s a budget friendly hotel. Also, the staff in the reception is really accommodating! Kudos to this hotel!

Good and connvenient location, helpful staff. Parking is limited but there is free overnight parking at the nearby garage. room is clean and good for a solo traveller. However, the walls are rather thin? I could hear the neighbor snoring at night. they also only provide 2 small towels, no normal / large towel. The aircon also does not work during winter (nov-mar) so i had to open the windows but it’s fine.

A few things to update from the most recent review: the 7-11 next door is gone/being renovated; you cannot cook inside of your room even though it has a burner, etc. and not all rooms have a washing machine (photos a bit misleading). However, there is a laundry machine available for use, you just need your own detergent. Very friendly and helpful staff. The cook-your-own breakfast was a great deal for us as a family. The roof top is amazing, 360 views of the sea and mountains, truly stunning.

Good location & friendly counter staff, kitchen opened to use even we didn't include breakfast.

Generally ok. Parking lots are very limited and space per lot is pretty tiny and you will have difficulty parking if your vehicle is big. Basic and inexpensive breakfast that requires your contribution in frying eggs, toasting bread and washing of utensils after use. Overall interesting experience.

The hotel is well located. Close to a couple of bus stops. Next door there's 7/11. The breakfast is self service, simple and not expensive. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Provided me with a mobile phone charger. The WiFi was good and the smart key system is very convenient.

Room facilities are slightly run down, but don’t affect stay :) good for travellers who are looking for short-term & budget overnight stays.

The bathroom smelled of cigarette smoke, and the sink was clogged so the water didn't drain properly, which was uncomfortable. There were so many mosquitoes in the room that I couldn't sleep because they kept coming out no matter how much I caught them. I thought it was mosquito hell. I liked that they provided towels and water every day.

It is a small and clean hotel near Seogwipo Olle Market, and the surrounding restaurants are generally satisfactory, especially the nearby Sundubu restaurant, which was especially delicious, but the hotel parking lot is small, so using the surrounding public parking lot is somewhat inconvenient.

The location is good for the price, it is clean, and the facilities are good. If the parking lot in the building is full, you can park in the nearby public parking lot. You can park for free during the designated night time.

The hotel was clean and well-equipped with amenities. It was nice that there was an observatory on the rooftop, so I could see Seogwipo City and Mt. Halla up close.
