Compare 4 airports near Jeju City

For most travelers, Jeju International Airport (CJU) is the only practical choice for direct access, as it sits physically within the city. It handles both domestic and international traffic and offers the most efficient, cost-effective transport options including buses and taxis. All other airports listed are located in NEIGHBORING cities on the Korean mainland and are not airports of Jeju City. Muan International Airport (MWX), Yeosu Airport (RSU), and Gwangju Airport (KWJ) serve their respective mainland regions. Travelers landing at these mainland airports must complete a secondary leg of travel, either by catching a connecting flight to Jeju or by taking ground transport to a coastal ferry terminal for a lengthy sea crossing. If your goal is Jeju City itself, these alternative airports only make sense if flight routes or pricing are significantly advantageous. For the best experience, we strongly recommend flying directly into the island to minimize travel time and complexity.

Dongmun Market / Jeju City Hall Jeju City|2km from city center
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.

Switched from Lotte Hotel Seogwipo to Regent Marine. It was super convenient, only about a ten-minute taxi ride from the airport to the hotel. We were given a room on the top floor with a partial sea view, and it was fantastic watching planes take off and land every day with the ocean in front of us. I remember being really impressed by Ramada and Emart twelve years ago. Regent Marine is about a ten-minute walk to Emart, and across the street is Chilseong-ro Shopping Street. Downstairs, there's McDonald's, GS25, CU, and 7-Eleven, all very close by. The duty-free shop and Baojian Road are about a forty-minute bus ride away. The hotel's fried chicken delivery also came with two free drinks, and it tasted great. There were also vouchers for the coffee shop downstairs. A lot of Korean Air flight attendants stay at this hotel. I felt it was a great and convenient stay, plus there's a swimming pool, which made the kids very happy. Highly recommend!!!

Check-in and check-out were both quick and convenient. There are many dining options nearby, and public transportation is easily accessible. The BBQ was delicious, and there are plenty of convenience stores. The people of Jeju Island were very friendly to us, and we really enjoyed the local slow-paced life. We had a relaxing time playing in the water at Bubble Beach and hiking the beautiful Olle trails.

The room was really spacious, and they provided two bottles of water in the fridge daily, along with convenience store vouchers. It was super convenient to grab food on the first floor, with a Starbucks and a GS25 right there. The front desk staff even spoke Chinese and allowed us to check in early. On our last day, we moved to the Gloucester, but couldn't check in until 3 PM, and the room was much smaller with lots of bugs and a strange odor. Next time, I'm definitely staying at Best again; it was a much better experience.

Jeju Internation Airport / Yeondong Jeju City|4.65km from city center
The hotel is conveniently located about 2.4km from the airport and offers breakfast. It's a typical budget business hotel often used by tour groups. The rooms are small, and it can get crowded, so the value for money isn't great. However, the front desk staff are very friendly and helpful, always ready to answer questions and provide directions to tourist attractions after looking them up online. It's also about a 20-minute drive to the Olle Trail, accessible via subway line 16.

While there are many great hotels in Jeju, and a night at the JW Marriott can easily cost over 5,000 RMB, the Grand Hyatt offers the most reliable balance of price, location, and quality. Its location is truly its biggest advantage, situated in the iconic twin towers in the bustling heart of Jeju City, making the building instantly recognizable. Shilla Duty-Free Shop is just a ten-minute walk away, Lotte Duty-Free is also nearby, and a large E-Mart supermarket is right next door. There are countless cafes and small restaurants in the vicinity, so you can easily sort out all your dining, entertainment, and shopping needs within 500 meters of the hotel. Overall Experience: Staying at the Grand Hyatt Jeju is stress-free, even if you don't speak Korean. The hotel is filled with Chinese signage – in the elevators, by restaurant entrances, and next to the pool – often more Chinese signs than Korean ones. The 220V power outlets in the room don't require an adapter, making this hotel practically the safest choice if it's your first time in Jeju. The large floor-to-ceiling windows offer a good view, and while it's not a sea view, the scenery outside is still pleasant. The room's interior is identical to the sea view rooms. Overall, I'm quite satisfied. Address📍: 12 Noyeon-ro, Jeju Island, South Korea Price💰: 1533 RMB for a 65 sq m King Room per night

Dongmun Market / Jeju City Hall Jeju City|2.2km from city center
This stay was a complete surprise, like a mystery box! We were randomly assigned two top-floor suite rooms, which were incredibly spacious, even for a family of four. Although it was listed as a 'mountain city view,' the actual view far exceeded our expectations. Right outside our door was the gym, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering an expansive panoramic view. Even more stunning was the rooftop terrace, boasting almost a 360° panoramic sea view. From the pink hues of sunrise to the golden glow of sunset, we could chase the light all day long without even leaving the building. The visual experience in the common areas was absolutely superb. Both the facilities and service lived up to the price, making it excellent value for money. I will definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit.

We visited in July during the summer holidays and stayed at both Meisen Glide Hotel and the adjacent Bolton. Although Bolton was a few hundred yuan more expensive, the overall experience was better than Meisen. Firstly, the front desk service at both was good, but Bolton's front desk had the advantage of seamless Chinese communication. Secondly, the room at Meisen—the first plastic cover of the toilet had several urine stains. At first, I couldn't believe it and thought it was just the toilet yellowing from age, but when I wiped it with a wet wipe, it came right off, and it was yellow—definitely urine stains. For this price, the toilet wasn't even cleaned properly; I was truly speechless… Lastly, Meisen's room didn't have an electric mosquito repellent, and I was woken up twice by mosquitoes at night. Bolton, on the other hand, smelled lovely as soon as you entered the room.

The hotel is located in a quiet part of town and is only 5 mins away by car from the airport. There are restaurants in the vicinity about 5-8 mins walk away ( black pork bbq and berrycoco cafe). We get a nice view of the sea from our rooms and one of the rooms comes with an arcade machine, which is fun to spend time with. The rooms have a small kitchenette and water dispenser which is very useful.

Although the room is a bit old, it has been redecorated and is very well-maintained. Overall, it's clean and hygienic, but the bedsheets had some holes, which I hope will be addressed in the future. It's conveniently located in the city center, making it easy to get around, and there are many good restaurants nearby. The staff were very friendly, warm, and proactive.

”Who said that Jeju Island has a romantic sea breeze? The EEDO villa I lived in this time directly refreshed my understanding of 'home away from home'! The constant temperature pool control must be rushed: soak in the warm pool in the afternoon, the blue sky of Jeju is looking up, and the water waves are swaying the sun like a broken drill. Every shot is an ins wind blockbuster ~ room details are full: the bedding is soft to like trapped in the clouds, and every day I wake up outside the window is a clean healing scenery, and even the bathroom exudes a faint fragrance. When I checked in, there were Jeju specialty oranges on the table, which were sweet to bursting juice! In the evening, I personally helped us barbecue, the sound of black pork and his special sauce, and I went down and went directly to the soul to wear ”The Canteen” 😂 Before leaving, I even sent a small souvenir. The location of the villa is super convenient, it takes 15 minutes to go to Yayuexuan to see the seagulls. Remember to bring more swimsuits, poolside and lounge chairs are too filmed. If Jeju Island is gentle and shaped, it must be the water ripples in the EEDO villa pool + the fireworks of the landlord's grandfather's barbecue. Sisters close their eyes and rush, this is definitely worth N brushing!

This hotel is very close to Jeju Airport, a quick taxi ride away, and there's a bus stop right outside, making transportation very convenient. There's also a convenience store on the first floor. The stay itself was decent; the room was clean but the facilities were a bit dated, and the soundproofing wasn't great. Note that the hotel doesn't provide toothbrushes or slippers, so you'll need to bring your own. For catching a flight or a temporary stopover, it offers good value for money.

The hotel is very close to Jeju Airport, and the Shilla Duty Free Shop is just a 15-minute walk away. The room was spacious with a separate wet and dry area, and the cleaning staff did an excellent job daily. The soundproofing was great, ensuring a good night's sleep. The breakfast spread was extensive, and the handmade yogurt was particularly delicious. A big thank you to the restaurant staff as well; I accidentally left my room key in the restaurant, and they returned it to the front desk, saving my trip from a potential mishap. Also, the ocean views in Jeju are absolutely stunning – you should plan your trip soon!
