Hotel Whistlelark Jeju

The hotel facilities are pretty comprehensive, with a paid laundry room, gym, and pool. The service was excellent, and I didn't experience any of the discrimination issues some mentioned. There's a convenience store nearby, and a small balcony perfect for drying clothes. Across the street, you'll find the Black Pork Street, Chilseong-ro Street, Dongmun Market, McDonald's, BHC Fried Chicken, and all sorts of other conveniences.

The hotel's location is excellent, and the sea view is beautiful. However, my room on a lower floor had an obstructed view; a higher floor would definitely be better. There are many restaurants and convenience stores nearby, making daily life very convenient. It's also only about a 10-minute drive from the airport. The front desk service was just okay; the staff weren't particularly friendly and didn't smile, but they could communicate in basic English.

Cleanliness: The room was cleaned thoroughly every day by the staff. Ambiance: The atmosphere was cozy, with soft lighting and plenty of mirrors. Service: There was an English-speaking front desk, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Convenience: There are many convenience stores nearby, and Dongmen Market is just a ten-minute walk away.

The first room I stayed in on the top floor was great, but the 'king-size bed' was actually two single beds pushed together. It had a balcony with a partial sea view. The second day, they moved me to a room on the second floor, which was stuffy and had worse soundproofing – I could sometimes hear street noise. Hygiene: The most unexpected thing was finding a cockroach in the bathroom. I used a disposable towel to step on it and kill it. My friend said she also had a large cockroach in her room. I'd recommend booking a higher-floor room. One small suggestion: For luggage storage, it would be helpful to have a tag with the room number and name on it. Most people need to store their luggage before heading to the airport, and not having a label makes one feel uneasy about others potentially taking the wrong bag. Overall, the hotel facilities are good, including a gym and a swimming pool. Aside from the hygiene issues that need attention, everything else was decent.

The room was quite spacious, and it even had a balcony with great views of both sunrise and sunset! The hotel is right by the coastline, which is perfect for a stroll in the morning or evening, especially in the evening when the square gets lively! Dining is convenient too, with plenty of delicious options just across the street. It's also a quick walk to Dongdaemun Market, Chilseong-ro, and Black Pork Street. I really love this hotel and will definitely be back!

Close to the beach, this hotel is brand new. The family room was perfect for two adults and one child, and it was cleaned daily. The only downside was that despite booking a sea view room, we were given a 3rd-floor room with a partial sea view. There are plenty of food options nearby, including late-night snacks. It's also very close to Qixing Road Pedestrian Street.

Facilities: The hotel's overall facilities are quite good, and the location is excellent, right by the sea. Cleanliness: The hygiene is also good. Compared to other hotels online that complain about various uncleanliness issues, this hotel's hygiene is very good. Service: The service is also great. The only slight drawback was the lack of Chinese-speaking staff. We mostly had to guess when checking in.

The hotel's location is decent, but the facilities are quite old. There's not much in terms of service; I stayed for 4 days, and they only provided bottled water on the first 2 days, none on the last 2. The swimming pool is pretty good though, the small pool is heated, and the view at night is nice. Rooms on the lower floors are very noisy.

Our whole family thought this place was good, but there's room for improvement, which I'll list out: Areas for improvement: 1. The pool fee is 1000 KRW (about 5 RMB) and is paid to the hotel upon check-out. 2. The pool water wasn't very clean. 3. The curtains in our room had oil stains, and the sheets and duvet covers were damaged (Room 916). 4. Transportation isn't very convenient (by bus). There's only one bus stop nearby, and it's not very close. We always had to take a bus to the bus terminal (lines 431, 432) and then transfer to another bus. Pros: 1. The location is excellent. It's near the sea (no beach), and it's lively at night, great for a run. There's a seafood street by the sea, and it's not far from Dongmun Market. There are 7-Eleven, CU convenience stores, and BHC fried chicken nearby (don't get the cheese flavor, it's very greasy and sweet, but they do provide side dishes, cola, and cheese sauce). It's also not far from Chilseong-ro and there's a supermarket next door. 2. The hotel has deep, shallow, and hot spring-like pools.
