We stayed in a 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment has plenty of room and is very comfortable on cold rainy mornings. The apartment has a kitchen but no utensils or pans and no plates and cups. Also, the bathroom has no door, but we found this else where also. We used the Convenience Shop a fair bit. Wifi is good. We couldn't log on until we used the router address and password. Reception didn't speak very much English.

Being the cultural and economic hub of the southeastern part of Korea, Gwangju is worth visiting if you're interested in this country. Also, Gwangju is the best place in Korea that hosts and preserves historical heritages regarding the military/dictatorial government in the last century. You're strongly recommended to visit the former Jeonnam provincial office and Jeon Il Building to witness the history of brave Korean people.

I stayed for two days and I think it was suitable for my needs.
Make sure to go to Sajik Park and to the observatory there, sunset up there was so beautiful! Also there's a café so you can get a take-away coffee to the observatory deck and enjoy it there (or in the café if you prefer that, there are large windows with great views too). When you go in the evening, there are light installations in the park and reflected to the tower.
Make sure to know basic Korean when you go to Gwangju or have a good translator since not everyone speaks English. I speak a bit of Korean so it was okay.
T-Money card works well here and it's easy to get from the airport to the city by subway.
If you are BTS ARMY like me, be sure to check out J-hope art in the Penguin Village and Gwangju Kpop Street!

Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history.
Gwangju is a city of culture, arts and history. The people are kind and the food is great as well. Head to Yangrim-dong if you want a plenitude of cafes full of aesthetic. If you’re looking for places to eat, Dongmyeong-dong is where you should be. And Asia Culture Center is great to chill even after the sunset. The best part is that everything listed above is very close to each other. I visited Gwangju about 6 times and I can’t wait for the next. I love this city!

Of all the street shopping areas I have visited so far, I really enjoyed Gwangju's Chungjang-ro. We also visited the May 18 memorial and public cemetery, which had great information about the democratization movement.

We really appreciated the educational opportunities at places such as the 5.18 Archives, Liberty Park and Asian Cultural Center. For Americans.like us, learning.about the U.S. role in the military slaughter of Gwangju citizens in May 1980 was very important. The beauty of the Bamboo Forest and mountains nearby.was.stunning. Subway to the 5.18 Liberty Park (KDJ Convention Center stop) was easy enough to.figure out.

Gwanbju is wonderfull city, but I had litle time to visit because I participate in Fina Masters.
I eat all around between swimming pool and Prince hotel.
It is easy only if you know whwre exactly leed bus lines. I could not find som kind of touristic card with bus lines, I found only card with metro line. After few day and big time to study Gwangju it was easier but stil fatiguant.
The hotel is quite good. It is located in a big city, but not in the center, so you can reach it without a lot of traffic jams. There are many shops and restaurants nearby, also a pretty big supermarket. The rooms are clean, the staff nice and the beds comfortable. The rooms are well sound-proofed. There is a parking lot at the hotel, when we were there it had free spaces - but if it does not, there is another one close by. The next street from the hotel is interesting - it is a street with only hotels on it. But generally the area is quiet.
This is a lovely, new, and modern hotel close to lots of really good restaurants and situated between two subway stations and close to major bus lines. Breakfast was included with our stay and was generous and tasty. But the best part were the staff who are incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful. we managed to forget my daughter’s medicine when we left, but the staff contacted me immediately and had it delivered very quickly.
I booked this hotel as I was coming to Gwangju for the buskers world cup and wanted somewhere affordable and convenient to stay. It was smack in the middle of all the hustle and bustle, opposite a starbucks and lots of food places and shopping around. The room got cleaned every single day, if anything to an excessive point with fresh towels and water restocked every single day.
Close to the train station, it was a spacious, clean room and the staff were lovely. There was netflix on the TV which is great because so many hotels force you to watch their crappy paid channels. Big thanks to Mr Max Lee at the concierge. He was so helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Bonus of having a convenience shop attached to the hotel too.
Quiet, nice clean facilities, comfy beds, tasty breakfast... everything I could wish for in a place to stay! The personal lamp above each bed is very convienant. Also the location is very ideal, near downtown, the subway, and a lovely river to walk along! I will definitely book here if I travel to Gwangju again!
the room was huge and the lady at the cafe was very friendly. Unfortunately, I don't speak Korean to talk with her... Everything we're very clean, the only thing I could add is to have some cutlery at the shared kitchen and a toaster would be a plus...
The hotel is located in a lively neighbourhood with plenty of restaurants and bars. It has a more upscale shopping street that's worth checking out (I believe it's called Chungjang-ro). It has a cool looking cinema just around the corner.
We liked that the hotel was near the center and the food street, but still pretty quiet. We didn't have any problems parking and the room was very spacious and clean. The staff was also helpful.
I went to Gwangju on business and needed a nice place to stay for work. This hotel was perfect for that because the location and a spacious, attractive room! Highly recommended!!
