Busan Hotels with Bars

When I booked, I mentioned it was my child's birthday on the check-in day. The hotel thoughtfully prepared a small cake and a birthday hat. The staff even came up to take photos and gave us a polaroid. There's a side gate that leads to the beach. The weather was quite gloomy during our stay, and it even thundered and rained on the second day, so we didn't get any good photos, but it was nice and cool. The outdoor pool is heated, so you don't have to worry about getting cold.

Oh my goodness, this is hands down the most beautiful hotel in Busan, no arguments! The location is absolutely unbeatable, right by Haeundae Beach with stunning oceanfront views – truly first-row ocean views! Watching the sunset from the hotel is just the best, especially with those gorgeous floor-to-ceiling windows. I still can't stop thinking about this hotel even after coming back. The staff are incredibly welcoming and warm. Choosing this hotel will seriously elevate your travel experience. The overall decor is modern, and it's super convenient to get everywhere.

Overall, the room was convenient and well-equipped, and the cleanliness was good. The location was also super convenient. My only minor complaint is that the duvet felt a bit too thick. Check-in is officially at 3 PM. I was feeling unwell the day I arrived and asked the front desk if I could check in early, but was denied. I ended up paying for half a day to get in earlier. For check-out, they asked for 11 AM, and when I called to request a 30-minute extension, they readily agreed, which was a good point. It would have been an even better experience if the service had been a bit more flexible and accommodating.

The room was spotless and spacious, and the location is absolutely fantastic. It's in the same building as Club D Oasis and X the Sky, with direct access to the beach right downstairs. Haeundae Blueline Park is just a 5-minute walk away, which is incredibly convenient. There are tons of great food options both within the hotel building and within walking distance. You'll find everything from abalone porridge, pork soup with rice, seafood, and sashimi to Korean BBQ, fried chicken, bakeries and coffee shops, and Western restaurants – so many different choices! The Family Lounge offers snacks and drinks all day, and alcoholic beverages in the evening. The pool is absolutely beautiful, and there's also a small kids' play area. The hotel staff were all incredibly attentive and friendly. It was a much better experience than I expected!

benefitted a lot from reviews, i should contribte too! the location is 10/10, taxi stand right at the entrance, busan station right at the entrance, starbucks, GS25, CU all at ground floor. Lots of food within 5 mins walking distance. everything else is convenient and smooth, staff were helpful, pretty and handsome too. Definitely would come back to this hitel again next time im in Busan

Pros: Right on the beach. Saturdays have a drone show to the left of the beach. Soundproofing was good, especially being on a busy beach. Big smart tv. Smart toilet. Very spacious. Front elevator was transparent so the view of the beach going up and down was nice. Lots to do nearby - arcades, convenience stores, cafes, ice cream. Breakfast was worth it with good view of the beach and good food (bibimbap station and yoghurt drinks were a plus). Fair amount of vegetarian and vegan options too but only dairy milk. Gave us 2 key cards. You can ask if you need more water bottles. The hallway of the floors has a nice view of the beach, with bean bags to sit on, even if your room does not. Cons: Only 2 elevators (one is kind of kept away behind the building). Reception is on the 15th floor, it was a bit cramped because it was in the same area as the dining area. Price was on the expensive side, especially for a room without a window.

If you are looking for a stay with a view in Busan, Hotel Adela offers some fantastic visual perks, though it comes with a few logistical ”hurdles”—quite literally, if you end up taking the stairs! Here is a detailed breakdown of what to expect. The Room & Amenities The first thing you’ll notice is the generous room size. Unlike many cramped city hotels, there is plenty of space to move around. The View: The highlight of the stay is undoubtedly the stunning harbor view. Watching the bridge light up at night is a great way to wind down. Comfort: The beds are comfortable and provide a good night’s rest. Condition: While the room is clean, some of the furniture is starting to show its age and feels a bit dated. Facilities: Basic toiletries, drinking water, tea, and coffee are all provided. Note that the toilet and bathtub are in the same space (not separated). Climate Control: Be aware that during winter and early spring, the air conditioning is disabled. If the room gets too warm, you’ll need to crack the window to let the crisp Busan air in. The Elevator Challenge (The Biggest Downside) The most significant drawback is the elevator situation. The hotel only has three elevators, which is insufficient for a building of this size—especially since it is a popular choice for large tour groups from Taiwan, Thailand, and Hong Kong. Peak Hours: Between 7:30 AM – 10:00 AM and 5:00 PM – 9:00 PM, the elevators are perpetually packed. The Struggle: It can be so challenging to catch a lift that I actually had to walk down the stairs from the 15th floor to the lobby. If you have mobility issues or heavy luggage, this is a major factor to consider. Dining & Convenience On-site Eats: There is a Korean Fried Chicken restaurant on the 2nd floor that is definitely worth a try—the taste is quite good! Convenience: A CU convenience store is located right in the lobby, which is incredibly handy for late-night snacks or essentials. Breakfast Tip: I recommend skipping the hotel breakfast package. The restaurant is on the 24th floor, meaning you have to wait for the elevator to go up, and then wait again to get back down to the lobby to start your day. You’ll save money and time by eating at one of the many local spots nearby. Location & Accessibility The location is a strong point for shoppers and explorers: Metro: About a 7–8 minute walk to Nampo Station. Shopping: Very close to Lotte Shopping Mall and the famous Gwangbok-ro Shopping Street. Note: The building is shared with another hotel (North Harbor Hotel), which contributes to the high foot traffic in the lobby and elevators. Hotel Adela is a solid choice if you value a spacious room with a beautiful view and want to stay near the Nampo-dong action. However, the elevator delays are a serious test of patience. If you choose to stay here, try to avoid traveling in and out of the hotel during peak tour group hours! Pack your patience for the lobby wait, and definitely grab some fried chicken on the second floor!

The location is fantastic! Downstairs, there are many seafood stir-fry restaurants, and it's just a straight walk to Nampo-dong Street, which is where I wanted to go, so no getting lost. One street is bustling, and the other is more local. You can find everything you want to buy there, the only problem is not having enough money! It's also only a 5-minute walk to the subway station. The room rate is very reasonable, and best of all, the hotel always smells so nice and comforting.

The hotel is beautiful, and it's very pleasant to sit on the balcony and watch the sea when the weather is good. The room is also quite spacious, and the bedding is very comfortable. However, it's really far out and public transport isn't very convenient; you'll mostly rely on taxis. Also, note that toothbrushes and slippers are not provided.

Absolutely stunning sea view room! The location is fantastic, with plenty of dining options nearby, and it's quite lively at night. It's also not far from the bus stop. Gwangan Bridge is right outside the door. For South Korea, the value for money here is truly exceptional.
