“Value for money”

Pleasantly surprised with the hotel. We book a 3 pax room. Room is spacious and even come with a washer which was not listed. There is a open wardrobe with hangers.

Pleasantly surprised with the hotel. We book a 3 pax room. Room is spacious and even come with a washer which was not listed. There is a open wardrobe with hangers. There was a stove but not supposed to cook. Has a safe but not working. There is 2 tables and chairs. Bathroom has shower gel and shampoo. Downside: no big towels, only gave 2 small towel each. Room electricity tripped and we had to call the guy but quickly fixed it. Overall recommend for value for money

My travel party (group of three friends) was very lucky to have a great check-in experience with Sally, who had accommodated us to do an early check-in on 31-Oct. She was very kind and helpful in guiding us through the usage of the TV remote and even the air conditioning/heating system which were quite different to what we were used to. We did have language challenges with most of the other staff on rotation in this hotel during our 7D6N stay, but they do try their best to address our enquiries. We found the room to be clean and rather spacious for the three of us (...really we didn’t expect it to be as big as it was). WiFi was available in the room and common areas (lobby/restaurant/public computer usage zone). We had a washing machine in our room that was highly useful to us, since we were participating in the Jeju Olle Walking Festival. What’s more, hotel was relatively close to key bus pick-up/drop-off stations and it is right next to the Arang Joeul Food Market zone! You won’t go hungry here but do note that most of the food joints do close by 9pm. The Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market (서귀포매일올레시장) and other commercial/lifestyle amenities (shopping/coffee/etc.) are also within a walkable distance. P/s: Did I mention that you can have a great view of Hallasan while having your breakfast? Pp/s: The Hotel is also committed to giving you a healthy breakfast with minimal artificial seasoning. That’s good news for health buffs.

“comfy stay”

We arrived at 9.30pm from Seoul by Jeju Air. We took the last airport limousine bus 600 at gate 5 to New Kyungnam Tourist Hotel (KRW5,000 T-money). After 1 hour and half we arrived at the bus stop.

We arrived at 9.30pm from Seoul by Jeju Air. We took the last airport limousine bus 600 at gate 5 to New Kyungnam Tourist Hotel (KRW5,000 T-money). After 1 hour and half we arrived at the bus stop. At first we were confused with the hotel location. With heavy rain and nightime, it was hard to locate the place, walk and ask people around for the direction. After a while we decided to take the taxi. Do not confuse kenny story with kenny inn. This hotel was located at the alley at Arang Joeul Street. It costed us KRW3,200 to reach hotel by taxi. We checked in at almost 12 am. The check in process went smoothly. Please note he front counter will closed at 1-6 a.m. The room was comfortable with fridge, safety box, big television, one single bed, one double bed, clothing cabinet, two bottles of water, air conditioner, towels and shampoo.There were many convenient stores (CU stores) and restaurants nearby. The female receptionist was very helpful with the maps to bus stops. Do not forget to take the business card from the hotel to get the address in Hangul-easy to ride taxi. We took the bus number 282 at Arang Joeul Street bus stop (2 minutes walk from hotel) to Jungmun Tourist Complex to visit Teddy bear Museum. The bus fare was KRW1,250. Olleh Everyday market was 5 minutes by foot. Saesom bridge was 28 minutes walking distances from the hotel. I advised to take taxi- KRW1,180 the road to the bridge was sloppy. Cheonjiyeon entrance can be found on the way to the bridge after the Chilsimnigyo bridge. The breakfast at the hotel was good. There were variety of food and beverages such as cereal, milk, coffee, orange juice, hot chocolate, rice, soups, kimchi, porridge, banana, salad and toasts. The parking was limited. The male receptionist was good in English and polite. He helped us to reserve the taxi from the hotel to Jeju airport with the price range KRW 30,000 to 35,000.
