Hotels Near Cheonghak Watershed Observatory in Busan

Location - near to Busan station (10 minutes taxi ride or 20 minutes bus ride + a little walking). It's also near to Gamcheon Culture Village (30 minutes bus ride). Lotte Department Store is walking distance of 10 minutes or a bus ride of 5 minutes. Evening time, you can see stalls laid up selling cooked seafood - many locals will eat and drink there (we didn't try as we were too full). Just next to the hotel, there's a Emart convenience shop but if you walk about 50m down the street, there is S25 convenient shop which I find the things are much cheaper. If you wish to grab a coffee, there is a ”Blue Shak” cozy cafe within 50m. This area is less touristy. Service - The receptionists can speak English but I felt they could be more friendlier. We unforeseen our small sized luggage to be spoilt and requested to be thrown away at check out but was told that they do not have a disposal bin. I understand South Korea has a strict disposal system but given such a big property, they could at least help because we travellers can't just dispose things anywhere. The receptionist reluctantly helped after I insisted. The Housekeeping was excellent, clean room throughout stay. Room - Good size. I booked a triple room (Ondol - floor bedding) but was given 3 real beds instead. I did not pursue further as I checked in late (11pm+) and it was 2 nights. The bed was too soft for me. View of the room was partial ocean and port. Overall, a good stay but I will not return to this hotel. I am a hotelier but I do not expect sky high services because service line can be hard at times. The receptionists at both check in and check out didn't gave me a warm feeling - didn't felt as welcome like a traveller.

Excellent location with a fantastic view of Busan Harbour from the roof garden. 5 minute walk to both KTX Busan Station and the Subway. The room was very clean with plenty of space. The double bed was comfortable and the bathroom was amazing after a day of activities! Staff were friendly, punctual, and helpful. Has a restaurant on the second floor but you need a prepaid voucher from reception to access. A very enjoyable experience and I highly recommend a stay!

The room is pretty nice and clean, and the location of the hotel is decent. It is near several important viewpoints, such as the Songdo cable car station and Gamcheon culture village.

It was a good stay. Though the location is not as conducive but it’s a quiet area. Check in is strictly after 3pm else hourly charges will be imposed, but you are able to keep your luggages with the reception. The room is spacious and clean and if selected with the mountain view, it’s a good unobstructed view. Daily housekeeping is clean and basic amenities provided. The hotel gym is quite big and well-equipped.

My family and I stayed at the hotel from 26 Dec to 28 Dec 2023 and upon checkout, the staff insisted that they had issues reversing my 200 000 krw deposit because I didn't use the same card. This is strange and confusing because I only used one credit card the whole time in Korea. I also used the same card to pay for the hotel booking upon check in. We stayed in other Lotte Hotels in Korea and compared to those hotels, our experience at Lotte Hotel Busan was not the best. During check-in, i had several questions for the staff assisting us but she told us curtly that she will explain this later. Perhaps it was a language issue but definitely rubbed me the wrong way. During our time using the pool, different lifeguards asked me on two separate occasions if my family had registered to use the pool -- we paid for the pool usage and received wristbands. They also hovered around my family quite a bit - prolly cos my husband's arm tattoo was showing under his shirt and my kids are rather loud (they are 3 and 6 fyi). We were also told by the staff to keep our 3 year old quiet. We understand that compared to perhaps other Korean children, our child can be quite loud. We tried our best to keep him quiet but he is just 3 and simply excited to be there and it was not so nice to feel like we were being watched all the time for our child.

The room is not big but very clean. The location is excellent, facing the Busan Bridge, which is very beautiful. There are not many varieties of breakfast, but the quality is very good. I will choose it next time!

The hotel is in a great location. Just across the street is Haeundae Beach. Next to it is the busiest commercial street. You can walk to all the delicious food. The room is clean and tidy, with an air purifier. There is also self-service luggage storage and self-service check-out. It is very friendly. The room you booked can see the sea, as shown in the picture. Overall it is very good and highly recommended. I will choose to stay here next time

Only stayed for a night, but all great - very comfortable bed and pillows, nice shower, great location very close to Haeundae beach (could be seen a bit from the blcony), located on a lively street with restaurants and stores. Highly recommended.

I made a reservation for 9 people for a workshop and was surprised at how clean it was. It was much wider and better than the picture. I was able to rest comfortably for 2 days and 1 night thanks to the thorough care and consideration given to me so that I could get a good education. Book the next workshop in advance!!😄

원래 이제경주를 생각했는데 청결도면에서 이제부산이 더 높은 호응이 있어 가게되었습니다. 식사부분이 아주 만족스럽네요. 하늘이 좋은날에 가면 제값 제대로 한다고 생각됩니다. 어느 호텔이든 공통사항이겠지만요 ㅎㅎ
