Set in Yeosu, 1.2 km from Tarubi Monument, Big O Show Guesthouse offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

The accommodation features evening entertainment and a shared kitchen.

Nice location with really kind staff. I didn't know much Korean Language but the staff was very friendly and seemed to have a lot of love for their job. Most of the other guests were families so it felt like a warm place. The bedroom was so spacious that I was surprised they didn't put another bed on it. The breakfast was lively with everyone gathering on the big table. I stayed alone but it didn't felt lonely because of that. You can eat by the terrace if you want a calmer experience seeing the sea and the city starting to move. There is a night 3D show of light and fireworks that is one of the main attractions of the town and you can watch it from the terrace, with a nice view of the sunrise too. You can easily walk from the station. The neighborhood is quite calm and have many cats.

Set in Yeosu, within 4.6 km of Chungminsa Temple and 4.6 km of Seokcheon Buddhist Temple, Flora hostelpension offers accommodation with a garden and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is around 5.7 km from Heantong Gallery, 5.8 km from Sky Tower and 5.9 km from Yeosu Teddy Bear Museum. Guests can enjoy sea views.

The location was unprepossessing as we approached, but in fact it is very convenient for the local black-sand beach and Yeosu, and our rooms had a view out to sea over the harbour. There's a convenience store a short walk along the road. The self-catering units are modern, comfortable, well-equipped and spotlessly clean, simply but thoughtfully furnished in Korean style (bed with mattress, but low dining table and no chairs). The soundproofing shuts out all traffic noise. It's clearly a family business and we received a cheerful welcome in spite of some confusion about the nature of the booking. We couldn't have wished for a better end to a long day's touring.

Sea Star Hostel is located 2.6 km north of The Ocean Water Park in Yeosu. The hostel offers private guest rooms with sea views and free WiFi access.

From the hostel, Soho Yacht Club is 1.4 km south and Yeosu City Hall 2 km north. Yeosu Domestic Airport is a 25-minute drive away from Sea Star Hostel.

Wonderful room - very spacious, great view over the bay, very comfortable bed, fantastic bathroom. Good facilities in the lobby - microwave, fridge, etc. Having the shop on site is super-handy and had a good selection of food and drink. The receptionist was really friendly and helpful, and there is a cute cat on site. I absolutely loved the area - it was more peaceful as it is across the bay from the big hotels, providing a beautiful cityscape view as dusk falls. Lovely to sit by the water and watch the fishing boats, and it was fascinating exploring the immediate vicinity and watching them process the catches. Loads of options for eating out/takeaways nearby. Make sure you go for a walk along the promenade to watch the sea life. Really wish I could have stayed longer but I was booked on a flight to Jeju. Short taxi rides to airport/train station.

Guest rooms in the hostel are equipped with a flat-screen TV with cable channels. Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, rooms at Dadam Guesthouse also offer free WiFi. At the accommodation each room has bed linen and towels.

The beds have a heating mattress 😂! That was awesome during the cold nights in march. The room and bathroom are big enough, you have a lot room to store your stuff and a fridge. The breakfast is self service - there is a kitchen, where toast, ham, cheese, eggs and spreads are provided (as well as milk, coffee and tea). You just agree on your breakfast time the day before, as there is only limited space for seating. The host was really nice, too. The location is also great for exploring the city - so definitely recommended.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The staff was very friendly and spoke English very well. We even had a small party to celebrate St. Patricksday (which would probably not happen in most of Korea). When I was there, there were not many other internationals staying in the hostel, but I didn't mind that much. And as a small bonus there was a cute hostel-cat!

    Friendly and welcoming. We relaxed in the backpackers cafe/pub between our journeys around the area. Room was clean, basic, cosy. Great location for exploring Yeosu and surrounds.

    Backpackers in Yeosu are such a good hostel. I did not stay for a long time, but it seems like it has everything you need. The stuff is very nice and they also have a nice pub across the street. I love all the plants in the room next to the kitchen. Such good vibes. The commun area is very spacious. In the room there is a bathroom with all the occurrence. It is very near to the port and also to the famous bridge in 여수 with nice cafés.
