Top May 18th Memorial Cultural Center Hotel Reviews

CS Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was spacious and clean"

Gwangju H1 Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Generally facility was good but not easy to say excellent."

BREEV GWANGJU by LOTTE HOTELS(formerly Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Gwangju)

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast service is very good."

Hotel B

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room and very kind staff. A lot of restaurants nearby. Breakfast was basic with "continental' and Korean options, but was adequate. Parking space is sufficient. When it is tricky, the staff will help you for free. Adding a door for the toilet inside the bathroom would be nice for the privacy and simultaneous use of the toilet and bathroom sink by two family members. Adding a closet / drawer would be handy for those staying more than a couple of days."

Holiday Inn Gwangju by IHG

8/10 Good

"Hotel was quite far from other areas and the convenience store at the bottom of the hotel was not that well stocked. But the hotel was clean and the room was of a decent size for 2 people."

Dubai Hotel Gwangju

8/10 Good

"Great breakfast, lovely staff, comfortable beds, but it is directly in the party area. "

Hound Hotel Sangmu

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel in a nice area. Clean, comfortable and friendly staff. Close to city train."

Gwangju W Lounge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is in a great location. I was able to walk to the Uncheon Reservoir to see the Cherry Blossoms and find some great places to eat. The Gwangju National Museum is only a 15 min. Taxi ride away. The room has a steam cleaning machine to press or refresh your clothes! The only thing that was wrong with the room is the mattress is SUPER hard. I actually ended up sleeping on the couch in the room as it was much more comfortable. I only wish the mattress was softer and the stay would have been perfect. "

YAJA Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great location not far from train station and so many restaurants near by. The hotel look new. Need to pay attention to housekeeping. The dinning table in my room got stain on it. And there are no bathroom door. "
