[2025 Seogwipo Stay] Travel Guide for Lotte Hotel Jeju (Updated Jan)

It is considered to be one of the best, actually, the BEST hotel in Jeju Island – the famous holiday spot for Koreans. I stayed here for two nights during my trip and I have had one of the best hotel stays in my life. The hotel is recently renovated and thus, the interior and the facilities are brand new. They are very well decorated and every facility is conveniently located. The staffs were very helpful when checking in and also gave us some welcome drinks and snacks upon our arrival. Moreover, they offered us some snack sessions at a lounge – in the evening and afternoon with free drinks and food. Although most people underestimate the food quality in such hotels, the food and desserts were actually very tasty and good that I could not have dinner after that. Unfortunately, it was too cold to go out swim as it was fall-winter but it would have been amazing as well. It is conveniently located in the tourist part of the island and nearby, there are aquariums, botanical garden, and even some beaches you can spend time – with your family, loved ones, and alone. It is definitely highly recommended.
