“Very unique and tranquil but nothing much to do around”

We stayed here for two days with our 8 yrs old son. The location of this hotel is quite remote, there is nothing much to do other than walking around the hotel or visiting nearby hotels (free shuttle). Other than that, we loved the bathtub and all the food in the restaurant. It is very remote.. so … Mais

“Best Hotel in Jeju”

The hotel is a little difficult to find as the road twist here turn there and road signs are not clear. It is in a separate building away from the Golf Course.

The hotel is a little difficult to find as the road twist here turn there and road signs are not clear. It is in a separate building away from the Golf Course. You need drive up a small slope to the end of the road. The staff are all very professional. The hotel’s design is very artistic. A lot of attention are given to details in terms of hotel service and decorations. We had dinner at the hotel. The hotel has good good food, fresh air and lots of good service. The room comes with natural hot spring water and it is very clean. They use Bvlgari toiletries. We saw the most beautiful sunset here at the hotel lookout area. There is a outdoor balcony area at the room where you can enjoy the night sky. Overall we like this hotel’s very relaxing atmosphere very much and will be back again!

Visitei o Podo Hotel em Seogwipo, Jeju, Coreia do Sul, de 26 a 31 de Maio de 2012. O hotel está em uma localização tranquila de país algumas vinte minutos de Jeju Cidade. Está ao lado do campo de golfe Pinx e não muito longe do mar. É moderno e arquitetura incomum mas muito confortável. O hotel está situado em um andar com belas vistas do jantar e áreas de estar comuns. Os quartos são amplos e cada um tem um banho termal alimentados por fontes vulcânicas. A mobília inclui camas grandes e confortáveis, guarda-roupa, gaveta suficiente espaço mas trabalho-top área limitada para computadores portáteis. O acesso wifi gratuito e acesso à Internet é uma Boon, especialmente fbusiness visitantes e contactos para casa. Quartos e espaços públicos são mantidos impecavelmente limpos. A área de jantar é espaçosa e confortável. O serviço é amigável, mas bastante lento, especialmente no café-da-manhã. Os garçons e outro pessoal são úteis, mas comando de Inglês é limitado. O conjunto menus para o café-da-manhã e o jantar são variado com pratos principalmente coreanos, mas com pequena explicação inglês. No entanto, a comida é boa e cheia de sabor. Para aqueles que exigem, é possível ter dois ovos fritos, bacon e salsichas para o café-da-manhã! Mas em quaisquer aventureiros refeição - ser ........ No geral, uma estadia confortável, estadia tranquila e agradável.

PODO hotel is located on the PINX golf course west of Hallasan. The location is rather remote but beautiful. We were wowed by the hotel's architecture and its surroundings. We stayed in 3 western styled rooms overlooking a beautiful garden. These rooms had access to an outdoor area where you could enjoy a drink. The rooms were large and well-appointed with free minibar and snacks. There is piped-in hot spring water guests can enjoy in the privacy of their own tub. As we have chosen the Western-styled room, it room came with a 150 cm regular acrylic type bathtub. For those who enjoy onsen-styled baths, the Korean rooms may suit you better as they come with a Hinoki bathtub. Even though the hotel has great hardware, it was severely let down by the software. Service was quite poor, especially at the restaurant. The staff was seen to serve Korean guests ahead of us despite us being there first. They were also very curt and often slammed the items on the table. On one of the days, they could not cope with the breakfast service - we had to wait for about 30 minutes while they clean up the tables which have been vacated for a while. Whilst one could excuse their sub-par service at breakfast to insufficient staffing and reluctance to communicate in English, one cannot excuse the housekeeping. The housekeeper left the balcony door open presumably while doing the turndown service. This resulted in the room being extremely cold when we returned after a day out. The balcony area also leads to the outdoor common area. This means that the room was essentially left unlocked for the duration that the door was opened. In addition, the mats usually placed by the bedside were strewn over the lampshades. One can only surmise that the housekeeper left the room absentmindedly. Luckily for us, nothing was lost, but this still constituted a severe security breach, that is unacceptable for any hotel. Overall, I would suggest international guests to rethink this property primarily due to poor service. They seem to cater only to the local Korean market and are ill-equipped to receive international guests.
