The room was very large, clean, with everything we could need including lots of space for luggage and belongings. The hotel looks exactly like the pictures. The bath was a highlight and so too was the beach view. The breakfast was large and very tasty. We would not hesitate to book again if we are back in Busan!

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Busan
Book for the cheapest times: Visiting Busan on a budget is particularly appealing during the months of February to April, when hotel prices may drop and offer great value for money. A stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended for exploring key attractions related to landmarks, history, and culture, including beaches, shopping, temples, aquariums, seafood spots, sightseeing opportunities, dining experiences, cultural sites, tours and natural parks. This affordable period allows travellers to enjoy the city's rich heritage and vibrant atmosphere without stretching their budget.
Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: Hotels.com offers travellers a chance to save on hotel stays in Busan through its Dealsopens in new window section, where special offers may be available. For those seeking last-minute escapes, the Last-Minute Deals option could be useful to view discounted rates on hotels near your travel date. Furthermore, the Smart Shopping feature, a handy comparison tool within the app, allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you're more likely to spot a favourable offer should availability or prices change.
Be flexible with dates: Prices may vary depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year, so being flexible with your dates could help you save on your stay at a Busan hotel. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels may provide a more personalised experience and occasionally offer better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average, and if it appears to be on the higher side, we may suggest more affordable dates, potentially helping you find a better deal.
Consider your location: Hotels near the city centre usually tend to cost more, but with Busan's excellent public transport links, you might find a more affordable independent hotel further afield that remains well connected. For those wishing to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby cities, there is often excellent value for money. Opting for these alternative destinations could offer a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
