The negative part is not where the hotel says it is located. So there’s a distance to Hyundai Beach. Probably 45 minutes. I didn’t like the fault advertisement. But you know I had a great day. The owner is a great guy. It’s a good hotel. And be honest with you. It’s really not that badly located. You’re right on the beach. Just at the beach it says it’s located at. Gary Hoch

It could be because we were here during a more off season, but the hotel seemed almost abandoned. Dark in hallways, issues with our room door beeping constantly when we left or returned, the bed feels like sleeping on a rock, and they don’t clean your room during your stay unless you pay extra.

The beach view was incredible from the room, there were always fresh bottles of water outside our door in the morning, and the location is the absolute best. You are close to so many things.

Nice pool (but cold) and

Very close to songjeong beach on a cherry blossom lined street, The Coolest Hotel is nicely located. The hotel itself is very basic. Very limited amenities. We were given half a toilet paper roll, 2 towels for 4 people, no hand soap at the sink, and all the food areas were closed. Staff was friendly but sometimes hard to find. Pool was nice but no towels provided. Overall it was an okay experience for the price.

This hotel DEFINITELY lives up to its name! The interior design vibes are immaculate- props to the designer. What a view from the balcony! We were on the tenth floor in a suite and it was WELL worth the money. The staff has been attentive and very polite as well. Even though it's well out of the way from the typical Busan attractions, I'd book this hotel in a heartbeat.

Great location and friendly staff

The location of the hotel is great - next door to a fabulous cocktail bar - possibly the best I’ve been to called Railside bar and also next to the beach train station.

There is a great boardwalk that runs the length of the beach train taking you to the livelier side of town.

We found the staff very helpful unfortunately the way the lift works you tend to bypass the lobby area as you come and go, which is a shame as it’s a nice way to interact and appreciate the service of the staff.

The coolest indeed

Had an amazing time at The Coolest Hotel Busan.
Wonderful colleagues, brilliant finishing touches and an awesome base to go and explore Busan.

We would definitely visit again. The style is great and the perks of the rooftop bar and the grotto bar are brilliant

Thank you for a great stay.

Top tip, buses don’t let you get on with suitcases but it’s only a quick taxi from Busan station or the subway to get there. Super simple.

Nice hotel with some quirks.

The bathroom was a little dirty. There was hair on the floor from the previous party that stayed there. Also there is parking outside and the \"tower\" self parking. Unless you have a luxury car though they will ask you to park inside. To me this seems a bit rude because regardless of the type of car I am driving I am paying the same amount to stay there. So even if there is available parking outside you will potentially have to wait in line for the self parking. Also three times during my stay I needed to return to the lobby to get my key re-keyed. I was told to keep it away from the other cards I have. At this point this is a common sense thing to me so I just said okay. The second time I asked why this keep happening and I was told they were not sure. The third time I was told that their system drops the rooms every day because they don't expect people to stay long. All of those answer seemed unsatisfactory to me and not so much of an apology for the repeated inconvenience.

The property was great for the train/sky capsule line, and were at a couple of great restaurants nearby. However, the reception was not always manned, we were asked to schedule our room service, and the breakfast was poor - a croissant with ham and cheese (no vegetarian option) and three tiny pieces of cut fruit.

A great stay at The Coolest Hotel

We enjoyed our stay at The Coolest Hotel. The front desk staff (Rayoon) was so helpful and kind. The breakfast was also convenient! We enjoyed the view from our balcony as well as the pool. The room we booked was the smallest room type. Perhaps next time I would book a slightly bigger one.

This hotel is quite far from the main attractions and transit isn't that close - either a 7 or 20 min walk depending on which route Naver recommends.

Downsides:
- the fragrance is overwhelming in all common areas from the elevators, halls to the lobby. If you are allergic or sensitive, be warned
- housekeeping is dismal. There only constant was removal of garbage. Whether they refilled your water, took away used mugs, replaced towels or made your bed was different every day
- there are only 2 elevators and 1 was out of service the entire time we were there (5 nights). You can also unselect the floor and end up missing your floor only to have to wait again for it to go in the direction you want
- room is extremely small. Exit light stays on all the time, so if you like it dark, throw a shirt over it

Staff is helpful but rigid - no check-in before 3. They literally will not process your paperwork before that. Breakfast is at 8, not a minute before even though they are packaged for takeaway. We had to get to the train station early in the morning and hoped to pick them up 5 mins before - nope

There is a nice boarded trail you can walk along.

The property was clean and bright but breakfast was a ham and cheese crossiant and a wedge of orange. Thinks were broken down elevator twice. Hours were strange no breakfast before 8 no pool before 9. And when we arrived we werent sure where to check in and when we finally decided we must go up to the 2nd fllor there was no staff around for a good 10 minutes.

The hotel is trying very hard to be hipster boutique, but it lacked facilities. No bar, restaurant and not much around it. Toilets by the pool locked and were asked about the time we wanted our room cleaned and we said noon and yet when got back at 4.00pm it still haven’t been cleaned. Maid left us hand towels and no bath towels and there is nowhere to hand towels after use. The room was nice and bright and airy, but the emergency exit light was on constantly at night and made the room very light.

The hotel is pretty new, less than a year old, so the rooms are spacious, everything worked perfectly and the hotel has some charm with the pool at the rooftop and the great views of the beach from the room. Staff was great, very nice , polite and helpful. Finally location wise, is next to the beach, one of the tourist attractions to Busan but a bit far from anything else. Still there are ways around like subway or the costal touristic trains that takes you closer Busan center. Will recomend it!

Trying to be Cool but not nailing it

Our room had a bath with a fab view of the beach but the whole set up was weird. There was no restaurant so you had to collect your breakfast from reception. The rooftop pool was the best part of the hotel. Transport was not especially easy unless you caught the slow moving tourist tram (it was quite a hike to either the subway or a bus stop). Would recommend staying in Haendae unless the point of your trip was to get to the beach.

Great hotel on the beach

We loved The Coolest Hotel. The staff was wonderful. They helped us with transportation and ideas of where to go. Our last day we had to leave early before our paid breakfast time and they prepared a to-go breakfast for us. The beach the hotel overlooks is Songjeong Beach and it has a relaxed mellow surfer vibe that is very different from the busier beaches of the city. You can stroll along the water’s edge in the morning.

부산 좋아해서 거의 매년 오는데 올때마다 해운대나 광안리 갔거든요. 똑같은 풍경에 질릴때 쯤 눈에 들어오는 호텔이 있어서 예약을 했는데 너무 좋았네요. 바다도 서핑하는 사람들도 있고, 뭔가 다채로운게 아 여기가 진짜 젊고 신선하구나 느낌이 들어요. 호텔도 5성에서도 느끼지 못한 감성과 디자인이 엄청 개성있고 좋았습니다. 당분간 부산오면 여기만 찾을 거 같아요
