Nice hotel that has the potential to be very nice. It was overall a very nice stay. Bathrooms and rooms were clean, slippers provided, and nice fragrances in the elevator and rooms I would stay here again. Note/ spa was not working, water was leaking from the ceiling in the gym (I saw the water drip, and you could see where the floor was warped in other locations), bathroom ceilings had water damage.

Great location but the reception desk located on third floor was inconvenient and the ground floor cafe opened late and closed early. The shower walls need updating and the powder room in our Triple bed unit smelled like cigarettes. If these items are updated, I would definitely return and recommend to others!

If I could give this hotel six stars, I would have. The hotel staff were lovely and very helpful, and patient with our questions. They provided us with drinks as VIP expedia members as well, which was nice of them. The hotel itself is located minutes away from the subway and bus stations, which provides an easier time going to various places. This is important since Busan is quite vast and sites can be far from each other. I would recommend this location!

The hotel is not a 4 star. The place isn’t very clean including our room. We noticed the flooring in the basement gym was damaged due to water and figured it was from the men’s washroom flooding the main floor likely into the fitness room directly below it. Property shouldn’t be advertised as a 4 star. Maybe a 2 star

We had the double twin bed room which came with two double beds. It worked well for our family since there are 4 of us. It's clean, and staff are friendly. The bathroom is very big compared to the size of the living space. It is close to a train and bus station, which is walkable distance. The hotel is next to the \"food alley\" which was not very lively when we visited and was filled with garbage everywhere. Not sure if it's because of the public holiday and garbage service was suspended. Plenty of bars, including transgender bars right next to the hotel.

Don’t get fooled by their onsen

They charge their guests KRW9000 to use the onsen & if I had known earlier I would not have booked it & the distance to the nearest subway is about 10 mins walk rather far actually & the surrounding area is a pubbing area. I still prefer Busan Station area for easy access.

I don't know where to start with this review. Overall, i hope i was unlucky but in my experience I found this to be the most inhospitable hotel i have ever stayed in. On check in, i was told to check out the following day because i had 2 bookings and to leave my bags with reception until 3pm. I was OK with this until the next day im shown a notice when they see my bags saying they wont take responsibility for anything lost. Also at check in i was asked to put a hold on my card. As i had paid in full, i refused and was then told they needed it in case i didn't pay. This made no sense and then i was told in case there were damages. I refused. On day 2, a fire alarm goes off at 2am in my room. It was in Korean only. I had no idea what was happening. I received a note under the door. After writing a formal complaint about the incident, the hotel manager stepped in. Im happy with how he resolved the matter and the rest of the staff need to be trained in customer service. Day 3, i went to breakfast at 940am to be told i could not enter as last admittance was at 930. All notices say breakfast finishes at 10am. Its a buffet. You do not order anything so not sure what this is all about either. Fortunately the manager stepped in for me. In addition, as seen from pictures shower taps were not properly connected to the wall in the second room i stayed in. First room had no issues. Other than the tap, the room was to a high standard. It's a shame about all the other details.

Superb hotel at a good location

Good location.
Staff are helpful and welcoming.
Quality hotel with excellent facilities and good upkeep of the condition of the room. Have stayed in other Solaria Nishitetsu hotels and this one also lives up to the brand name.
Our room had an impressive view of the city from the bathtub.
Unfortunately, a non smoking room had a smokey odour in the main toilet when using the extractor fan. Previous guest seem to not care about the non smoking policy. Such a shame as the room was excellent aside from this. It was resolved by airing the room and installing some scented candles. But it really impacted the first impression.

It's worth for money

In my honest opinion, this hotel is very worth it as it has multiple food options behind the hotel. There is also a mall located behind the hotel and multiple transport options everywhere. It is located very near central busan which allows easy access to malls. Although the views, are not that terrific, unless your planning to enjoy the hotel amenities, it is a excellent worth while.

Room towels are not the best material but usable. The room I stayed at sometimes had noises from the plumbing system from the room above - might just be due to sound proofing issues (but the noise was not consistent so had no issues). Would stay here again due to the convenient location - close to a lot of dining options and shopping.
