Grand Josun Busan

I stayed here for a few days in September. The lobby is beautiful, and the service is quite attentive. The elevators can take a while, even though there are six operating; something they could probably improve by tweaking the system. The Premier Ocean View Suite offered amazing views of the beach and skyline, with mountains in the background and floor-to-ceiling windows. The bathroom, however, is quite small, and I didn’t love that the shower is inside the bathtub. Overall, it feels like the lower end of a five-star hotel. You get a couple of complimentary drinks in the fridge once during your stay. Housekeeping keeps the room clean and tidy. The private club was alright. There aren’t a lot of drink or food options, but you can enjoy soft drinks, coffee, wine, beer, and champagne with great views. Breakfast was a highlight. They offered a variety of Western and Korean dishes, and both the quality and service were excellent. The location is fantastic. You can reach Haeundae Beach in just two minutes since it’s literally right next to the hotel. Behind the hotel, there are hundreds of restaurants, bars, and shops, so there’s plenty to do. Nothing to complain about there. BTW, Busan has a lot of amazing bars. Overall, I recommend this hotel for a casual and comfortable stay that feels neat and semi-luxurious. But if you’re looking for a true five-star experience, Signiel might be a better fit.

Upon arrival to the hotel, no one offered to help us with our luggage, even after checking in. No one offered. We saw other people getting help for their luggage, but unfortunately the service was horrible for us. I even mentioned it to one of the workers, as we had passed multiple hotel workers and there was a lack of initiative. This was the worst service out of all the hotels on my trip :/ For being a 5 star and the high price charged, it is such low quality service. I only gave two stars instead of one because the one worker apologized, once i came to him. Overall, the actual room is really nice and clean, though would recommend another hotel, as other hotels give extremely better service/amenities.

Rooms are decently maintained, but there restrooms fixtures are falling apart and there is no place for one to hang any towels or clothes (in the restroom) after showering/washing up. The location is perfect. The beach, the local markets, a bunch of eateries, and close taxi/subway to department stores. You can skip the breakfast buffet if it’s not included in your room (though most places open between 9-10am—so if you’re hungry early bird, the hotel buffet may be your only option.) The kids suite was amazing. Our kiddos (ages 18 months, 3, and 4) loved playing in the room. There’s a slide, climbing net, a large space to run around. 10/10 perfect for families.

Really good hotel! Starbucks and convenient store inside. Washing machine and dryer free to use, had to buy washing pods from the convenient store. Unreal views of the water. Indoor and outdoor pools. Very friendly staff. Drink and food can be expensive inside the hotel.

Stayed at this hotel for a few nights and really enjoyed the location—right by the beach with easy access to shops, restaurants, and all the main tourist spots. It’s super convenient if you want to be in the middle of everything. The area does get a bit loud during the day with all the activity, but that’s expected in such a busy spot. Great place to stay if you’re looking for fun and convenience by the water!

We had a wonderful stay at Grand Josun Busan. The location is perfect—right next to Haeundae Beach, just a short walk to the sea. There’s an eMart and Starbucks on the 4th floor, which is super convenient for grabbing snacks or coffee without leaving the buildingOur room was spacious, bright, and quiet, with a great view from the window. The bed was soft and very comfortable—we slept really well. The only small downside was the lack of hooks for hand towels in the bathroom. Also, I was a bit surprised that the minibar in a five-star hotel only had water and Pringles; I expected a bit more varietyThe staff deserve special praise—everyone was extremely polite, attentive, and caring. It was a real pleasure to stay here and feel so welcome

We stayed at the Kids’ room. Rooms were nicely decorated and beddings were comfortable. We had access to the washing machine and dryer for free too. Giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because, for some reason, there is no “dimmer” lighting options in the room. When you switch on the toilet light, it goes full on, and you become wide awake. The location is perfect, close to everything but yet quiet enough because of good sound proofing. The best part about this hotel is the warm outdoor pool which overlooks the ocean.

This hotel is gorgeous, centrally located, and right on the beach with a strip of restaurants and bars. Across the street is a main food cart and shops area, and there's X the Sky and a wonderful aquarium a 5 minute walk in either direction. They have complimentary washer and dryer combo on the family level as well as a convenience store, and their pools are wonderful. It was the highlight of trip in multiple cities across Korea.
