Compare 5 airports near Pohang
For most travelers, Pohang Gyeongju Airport (KPO) is the most convenient choice as it is located within the city itself and offers direct access to the urban core. For those requiring international connections, Gimhae International Airport (PUS), located in the nearby city of Busan, is the primary gateway, connected by a reliable airport limousine bus. Daegu International Airport (TAE), situated in the neighboring city of Daegu, serves as an excellent alternative, especially for passengers who prefer high-speed rail, as it is well-linked to the Pohang railway network. The remaining options, including Sacheon Airport (HIN) and Cheongju International Airport (CJJ), are located in different cities further afield and are generally only practical if you find exceptionally affordable fares or have specific regional travel requirements. Travelers should note that airports outside of Pohang require additional ground transport planning via intercity buses or KTX trains. Using a T-money card is highly recommended for seamless navigation across all local bus and transit systems in the region.

The hotel is a five minute walk from the intercity bus terminal, but it takes about a 30 minute bus ride to get into the city centre. The room is very clean and comfortable, however there was no hair conditioner provided. Check in required a phone call to receive room information and passcode, but staff were very helpful and guided me through the whole process.FromUS$24

Lahan Hotel had a great view of the East Sea and Pohang Space Walk and was very clean and well furnished. Shower amenities (shampoo, soap and body lotion) have a stronger scent than most hotels (tabacoo scented) and may be a hit or miss for travellers. Location was also convenient, with just a short walk to Yeongildae Beach and eateries along the beach street. Many buses also have routes along the Main Street which made it easy and convenient to explore Pohang. The reception staff were also very helpful and gave us helpful advice for our itinerary and plans based on their local knowledge (:FromUS$105

The staff were incredibly friendly, and the facilities throughout were very clean. Guests receive a 20% discount coupon for the A Twosome Place cafe located on the ground floor. My only minor complaint was a slight odor that occasionally came from the bathroom, which was a bit disappointing.FromUS$47

If there are more than two people, I have to pay extra money, so I feel like I'm being ripped off. ... I won't book that big place for only two people. ㅠㅠ Barbecue also has to pay an additional amount for two people. ㅠㅠFromUS$134

It was a small hotel next to a pine forest, so it was quiet and great for a walk. It’s a little bit outside the city center, but not too remote. Songdo Beach is right in front, so there are many convenient facilities nearby, so there’s no inconvenience.FromUS$64

Since it was a motel-like hotel with a large room, I didn't really expect much, but I really, really liked it!!
It was a Pohang trip where I went to see Jukdo Market, and it was a place right in front of the market, which fit the travel theme, and it was very clean.
I really have to praise the cleaning staff!! When I checked in at 6 o'clock, the door was slightly open, so there was no motel smell, and the bathroom was clean and dry. I'm sensitive to smells, but there was no smell on the bedding or towels. It's hard to park near Jukdo Market, but I asked the accommodation in advance to park and was able to look around the market first. The staff was also kind. Best value for money♥️👍🏼 I'll stay here next time I go to Jukdo Market.FromUS$36

The staff is really friendly, but the cleanliness of the hotel is a problem. The pillows smell a lot, and it seems like it hasn't been cleaned at all.
The drain doesn't drain well when I take a shower.
I didn't check the check-in time when I made the reservation, but when I checked, it was 6 PM.
I paid the deposit and checked in.FromUS$42

The hot water pool is so good. It's deeper than I thought and it's spacious. I played in the water without a circle. 👍🏻 It was a little unfortunate that the clouds were covered in the dawn to play and watch the sunrise. It was so good to be able to leave 😍Very Good2 Reviews
