I stayed at Paradise city for a day, was city-cation to retreat and relax. The hotel was beyond expectation, perfect for me. Every facility was very very luxury and clean. Room was well conditioned, smelled okay, no dirt at all, bedding was clean. Minibar was for free, which was a big benefit when i needed night snack and a beer before sleep. Swimming pool was very be...
Stayed at hotel on last night of business trip prior to leaving South Korea. The hotel is in my belief catering for mid-long stay clients as rooms are more like apartments with fully fitted kitchen, living area and bathroom. The standard of room was best we encountered on visit to South Korea and we had pleasure in eating on restaurant on night of stay and again qual...
I recommend that you stay here if you have a flight to catch from Incheon International Airport. My partner and I stayed here for the night and easily cause the subway to the airport early the next morning. They also provide a free shuttle service that you can use but as I live in Korea I just felt it more convenient for me to use the subway to get to Incheon Airport. ...
I used to stay Seoul or Incheon city town when I transit. I choose hotel near airport due to short transit time. Johnson hotel is very close to airport. So I like this location. Value and infra near hotel is also good. Lotte mart is next door of hotel. and there are many Korea local restarant too. I will stay it later on.
Hotel is very nice with a great Bathtub. Classic Design with a great view. Quiet Big Room and Good Location. Location near Lotte Mart and close to Central Park Subway. In front of Hotel (accross the street) there is Airport Shuttle Bus Stop to Incheon Airport only KRW 7000 / person.
This was one of the best hotel stays I have had in a long time. The hotel is relatively convenient for Incheon airport since it is close to the Maglev and has a shuttle bus. The shuttle bus and the Maglev both stop at around 18:30 which means that if your flight comes in after that, there is no easy way to get to the hotel without taking a taxi. The hotel itself is ver...
We used this hotel for our 13 hour transits in Incheon to Bangkok Thailand and from Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam. We have no problems each time we used this hotel (used them a total of 4 times within two SouthEast Asia trips). The pick us up promptly at Incheon airport, just need to call them from the Airport (ask at the information desk) and they tell you where to mee...
My stay was great. I stayed here for one night before an early departure the next morning. You can't ask for a better place to stay before a long flight. The food in this place is amazing. Don't even think twice about trying it. Kind of expensive, but what you would expect from a place like this. The gym and sauna are great before a night at the lounge. The pool...
We booked 2 rooms with the included shuttle transfer (optional but worth it). You call a number and the driver comes to pick you up within 30 minutes. Staff speak english and are very friendly. Clean hotel with full facilities. The location is in Incheon Songdo which isn't in the heart of Seoul, But great if you want to stay close to the airport. There are 2 convenient...
This's my third time using Best Western Premier Incheon Airpot. They've good service, cozy room and location. My flight's at Terminal 2. They used to have free shuttle to Terminal 2. Didn't know that their shuttle service to Terminal 2 finished few months before my stay. But still can use Taxi service to Terminal 2 that cost 15,000 won. If your flight's at Terminal 1 ...
i booked this hotel thinking it was near the airport. at first we hopped on the free shuttle of bestwwestern at the airport only to find out it wasn't the same hotel although it was bestwestern. bestwestern airport hotel, incheon is 3 minutes away while bestwestern songdo park incheon is 20-25 minutes away. we paid around 50usd from bestwestern airport incheon to bestw...
I arrived incheon at around 2330 so I chose to stay at the airport area instead of rushing to the city due to lack of late night public transportation. Pick up: After we claimed our baggages, we called to ask for pick up. The driver came about 5 minutes later. He's efficient and speaks good English. He gave us the room key and arranged the next day transportatio...
My wife and I and our 3 young children stayed here. It was a VERY good place to stay. The staff was wonderful and the restaurant was SO flexible with our meal and actually brought it to our room. They even made Carbonara spagetti for us even though it was not on the menu. Their food was AMAZING! I HIGHLY recommend this place to stay. It was about 15 to 20 minutes from...
Ganghwa is a small island with lots of historic sites. This is the only boutique hotel with 4 stars in the island. It's located on the hill and the view from there is fantastic. The room is small but clean and comfortable. Breakfast was good! It was rather brunch not breakfast! Don't expect with their outdoor pool but I love their lavender garden. I'll stay there again...
Excellent hotel with nice comfortable bed and room size is good for business traveller , service is excellent and staff is friendly. Location to Airport and city is easy access with Subway station just outside the hotel. A nice hotel for business traveller.
the staff were very kind and helpful, the room was spacious, we got the one with the bathtub in the room. nice design, about 10 minutes walk to the arts center station for subway. but no direct bus/ limousine bus to Incheon or Gimpo airport. so you will have to take taxi if you have many luggage. taxi from gimpo airport was about 25,000KRW (US$25) about 30 minutes. the...
I had a 13 hour layover in Incheon while traveling home from Vietnam. This hotel in the terminal is perfect for unwinding and getting some rest between long flights. The room was immaculate with every available creature comfort you might expect from any upscale hotel. Room was small, but how much space did I need for one night? Large bed and spacious bathroom with ...
This was my favorite hotel in Korea so far. This is a new hotel with high quality facilities and anemities. Good buffet breakfast with a quality selection. I booked a deal with breakfast and internet which was decent instead of paying always extra. Overall good quality hotel with nice city views on the higher floors. Spacious rooms with very comfortable beds. You pay m...
First of all, this hotel is cheaper than other hotels in Incheon. The hotel was recently built, so the room is clean.However, size of single bed is small so it may be hard for a big foreigner to use it.And male employees are not as kind and professional as female employees.The free valet service is excellent
We stayed in the family room. There isn’t a TV downstairs, but that just made us enjoy eachother’s company more. The beds were comfortable. BBQing indoors was a first. The brunch was sufficient and presented well. The whole property was a beautiful retreat outside the city. The music in ththe room was rather pleasent as well, with the Yamaha speakers. My parents ...
Due to our flight departure from Incheon early morning, we don't want to take the risk staying Seoul city and leave early morning from Seoul to Incheon airport. One day before departure after holiday in Korea , we took a Limousine to Incheon Airport (about 1 hour) and from Airport to Incheon Airport Gogo House we use the shuttle bus service. We were greet politely by S...
It’a actually apartment running like a hotel. So the services are very personal. Dont worry they have a shuttle service from incheon to hotel and vice versa but u hv to call them first. The host was very nice, he concerned about our arrival and gave us his contact number and the pickup location. U can ask the information desk to help u call the host (since we dont hv ...
Very close to Hagupo subway station and you can access to other areas very easily. It takes about 1 hour and 40 minutes to Incheon International Airport.
I originally booked a day use room at a hotel in Incheon for a 9 AM to 6 PM layover. However, when I imagined what that experience looked like (including having to take a 2:30 PM shuttle back to the airport) I realized that we would get precious little rest and would have to endure passing through arrivals formalities and airport security. We paid a bit more and avoi...
I reserved two rooms for me and my friends for my friend's reunion. It was a clean hotel and value for money. However, I didn't have a pleasant experience with the staff. The front desk staff seemed to act professional, but he was short with me. Also, I asked for extra towels at night on the phone due to using all towels just after check-in. But, the staff assumed ...
My flight arrived in Incheon after midnight. Since ground transportation to my home was no longer available, I decided to spend the remainder of the night at the Incheon airport and take an airport limo home later in the morning. I made arrangement through AGODA to stay at the Oceanside Hotel which I thought offered great value for my short stay. I arrived at the hotel...
great location near subway station Soraeyong 200m, clean & tidy room with separate bath tub. It's absolutely recommend to travelers who want to stay in a new small town in Incheon
We booked this hotel last minute as we missed our flight and didn't want to travel all the way back to the city centre. Check in was very convenient. Our room was ready when we arrived, and compared to the hotel I stayed in in the city centre that strictly didn't allow early check-ins despite having available rooms, I appreciated this very much. The hotel staff could o...
Free pick up from Incheon airport from our almost midnight arrival so this is a plus for me. Jun, speaks good english, he could smile a bit though he looks so serious and uptight. Please be on time when he drops you back at Incheon airport, we were at fault though, travelling with a kid is not easy. But he seems not to forgive the 5 minutes we were late. Facilities are...
The room is very spacious and clean. Bus stop to Incheon station/Chinatown is right in front of the hotel. Staff is nice but their English can be improved. I sent them an email in English but never got a reply until I eventually called them and asked in Korean. If you don’t speak Korean, communicating with the staff can be a little bit difficult.

We booked this as we are arriving at past 12 midnight in Incheon Airport and will be flying to Jeju the next day anyway - so we save travel time and can sleep early. We booked a quad room and asked for an extra mattress for a group of 5. The room is spacious, even enough for 2 extra mattress! The host were very very very accommodating and friendly. Nice vibe and clean....
Good Location
Overall the guesthouse is excellent. The owner is very helpful and polite. But one thing the owner need to do is some kind of print out information at the entrance door in English to to get in or call the owner. The main entrance door at the ground floor lock and the instruction at the door all in korean language. My friend and I (4 pax) arrived at the guesthouse at 7...
We had only one night stay before taking our flight, it was a very pleasant stay as the facility are well maintained, probably is due to a new guesthouse which makes us feel like home. The staff is very helpful who waited us to check in late 11.30pm. Simple DIY breakfast is available in the guesthouse (milk,toast bread). Guesthouse is a 15mins walking distance from uns...
Great condo with awesome view just next to station. Perfect for quick trip to Seoul or Incheon airport. Host was very welcoming as well. Place is very comfortable, great value for money and has great style. Definitely recommend.
I stayed for 2 nights and used the Hotel Phoenix as a base to go into Dongincheon/ Incheon city for sightseeing. I would recommend to stay here if you do not want to stay in either of those areas, but for me it was a half-way point to my friend who lived in a neighbouring suburb. Juan station is close by and can be easily accessed. The hotel was clean and comfortable,...
Songdo Blue Motel has clean rooms that include a mini refrigerator (with a couple of free beverages and bottles of water inside), a hot pot with free instant coffee and tea, a large flat-screen TV, and nice showers with plenty of hot water. The bed is hard, as is typical in Korea, but the hotel is on a side street, so the rooms are very quiet at night. There's not much...
This place is mostly for couples but for the price, it is good enough to stay. Pretty clean but then you can smell the cigarrete in the room
i was there by myself but think iff you are with more people this is the perfect place and very near the airport just 3 stops with the subway
Korus Guesthouse is the cleanest and so far, the best hostel/ guesthouse I've ever been to! From the living room/kitchen to the bedroom and bathroom, everything is clean, well-organized and amenities are well-provided for. The beds are clean and comfy, the bathroom has all the basic toiletries every traveler will need, and the living room/kitchen which has a provision...
the establishment is just three months old but I should say we had a great time even if we only stayed overnight... the location is near incheon airport and unseo station... the place is neat and very cozy...not expensive... the host is very accommodating and very kind to cook dinner for us coming from a late nite flight... all in all this guesthouse is more than worth...
Good hotel
It is more than 3 star hotel. They give facilities more than 3 star hotel. Spacious roo, private jacuzzi, PC in the room, but the weaknesses are; their staff can't speak english and no interesting place around this hotel. When I requested to book a taxi to Incheon airport, they gave me surprising fare, extremely expensive. It is better you find taxi by yourself. But ov...
I can't thank Mr Jeon Tae Jun and his family enough for welcoming me to South Korea, the city of Incheon and their guest house. After a long journey and almost no sleep I couldn't have asked for a more comfortable and clean place to rest for a couple of days. I only spent two days in Incheon, but this was easily the nicest area I saw and I would recommend a couple of...
The room we chose had a queen size bed and a twin size bed. It is perfect for us. The room size is very comfortable. The location is very near to the train station and market. There are restaurants and coffee shops near by. Very convenient. The only thing not so good is that the hotel staffs can hardly speak English.
The location is very near the bus station so it's easy to move around. And you only need to take bus number 6009 to go straight to Incheon airport. Very convenient Breakfast is simple but delicious. However, breakfast time is short (7: 00-9: 30 am) and early check out time (10 am). If your trip is on business trips, this time is suitable. If you travel, it is really u...
We had a great stay at asacasac! Very cute little place and feels like a home away from home. Very close to public transport and friendly host in our unfortunately brief interaction.
Air Buddy was perfect for our layover! Brian was extremely helpful and kind during the booking and traveling process. He picked us up from the airport and took us back to the house where he provided some light breakfast for the kids before we spent the day sleeping off our jet lag. Brian was very informative and especially thoughtful with our kids (9 and 10). I will be...
Well located accommodation, close to a metro station and the city center. Friendly staff, Wi-Fi very good. The value for money is very good
It was great! The owner was on time to fetch us from the airport and even confirmed with an email before. This is very comforting as a guest as it reassures you of your booking and that everything has gone smoothly so far. The guesthouse appears to be very fancy on the outside and is fancy inside but the bathroom was a little dirty which was unpleasant. The towels did ...
If you’re arriving at Incheon late at night, then this is the spot for you! We landed around 12MN and we didn’t want to travel all the way to Seoul at that time, thank goodness Mr. Kim’s is just a 10-min cab ride away! The place was great, complete with everything you’d need for an overnight stay. The ajumma even upgraded us to their family room with a private bathroom...
the room is big actually which is not usual in hostel. But it is totally not enough socket outlet for charging your cell phone, and you cannot find one close to your bed too. Besides, I booked 2 nights 4 beds dorm room, but turned out stay in 10 beds dorm in the first night, and I was basically fine with that. However, when I back to hostel in the second day, they told...
If you have a long layover at Incheon airport. I highly recommend booking this place. Only two stations away. Priced like hostel but the room is a master room. Comes with heated queen size bed, heated toilet, and tub. Owner was also kind enough to drive me back to the station during below freezing weather.
The host was very accommodating and prompt in responding. His place is cozy and big.
Stayed in 2 capsule - female only. Though they call it capsule, it is actually 2 rooms in an apartment. Digital locks on apartment door and individual room door, with shared bathroom and kitchen area. Overall, it was a comfortable stay. Took the free shuttle bus from and to Incheon Airport which is quite frequent, but you should check schedule and operation hours from ...
This hotel was a great experience! We recommend it due to the very good value for the money!
The owner of the guesthouse drove us to the Unseo train station to catch the train to Seoul Station. He also offered to drive us to the airport when we asked if he could call us a cab very early in the morning. There was peanut butter, cereal, milk and bread provided for breakfast. Girasol Guesthouse is a new property and I recommend this place for anyone wanting to ...

It is the correct decision to stay in Hotel Parkwood Incheon Airport. It takes me 10 minutes to wait for Mr Yoon, the kind manager who also multi-tasks as the hotel waiter and crew to pick me up on the second road outside Entrance/Exit 7 of the airport's Departure level, and eight minutes to reach the Hotel. The Standard Queen single room is small but it is compact w...
Well, we reserve a twin room. It has a 1 big size bed and a single bed, The big one was good it was clean but the single one was very dirty under neat the sheets. Obviously, they didn't change it. I was looking forward too and my friends to the bathtub since it was included but was so disappointed at the state of the bathtub. it was dirty, I mean it has stain like some...

Everich is valuable in terms of location, quality of service if you are looking for a high-class hotel outside of a city. Staff is very kind and warmly welcomed us. You can order foods any time on the phone either from hotel room service or food delivery. some second-hand books are on sale, approx 4,000won. What I only want to complain is I found some molding spots ...

I really liked it. Definitly gonna stay here again
It's hard to find 4 star hotel in Incheon city but it's nice location near subway station and comfortable.
I went there for doing business at Incheon National University. The hotel is easy to access from the airport by a limousine bus. The room is clean and has enough space (as IHG group standard). The staffs are very generous and they can speak English very well. Breakfast is also good. Only a drawback is the hotel is in the free economic zone (IFEZ), meaning that there a...

Also it has a fitness center, restaurant, and a business center The hotel was great; The view from the room was also very good.

I would think that most people staying in Incheon do so just one night or so in order to get to the airport. If you don't mind spending whatever amount of money, then maybe this place is for you, but for me it was a transportation nightmare. To get to this hotel from the airport you have to cross the incheon bridge and the taxi ride will cost you about 40$. In Korea th...
I had visited to this hotel for me last weekend. This hotel had built a few months ago. so it looks like so clean by outside. Also, the rooms I stay was so comfortable to stay. The most important thing you like is providing ocean view entire this hotel regardless of the rooms you choose.
Excellent hotel in Cheongna section of Incheon. Spotless, comfortable rooms, good breakfast. Highly recommended.
its a very good hotel big and clean similar to sheraton hotels big rooms good tv and a very very good restaurant where u can find any kind of food asian or western or european and plenty food for breaky paid about $14, lunch $15 and dinner $30 but it worth it its was really good there is a logo best night in korea well its a best night in korea u got free internet, jim...
Arriving into Incheon Airport, we had a Korean friend speak with the hotel who told us to catch a bus, which turned out not to exist, nor did the stop they told us to get off at! You can see the hotel as you arrive at the beach but no signposts tell you how to get to it and so after much walking up a hill we finally arrived via the road. The hotel is in a very poor sta...

More about Incheon City

Incheon, a vibrant city located on South Korea's northwest coast, boasts a unique charm that captivates travelers from all walks of life. Known for its rich history, stunning landscapes, and dynamic culture, Incheon offers a delightful blend of the traditional and the modern. As you explore this enchanting destination, you'll discover a city that has transformed from a humble port into a bustling hub of commerce and tourism, making it a must-visit location for those seeking an authentic Korean experience.

Visitors can wander through the streets of Chinatown, where the vibrant colors and tantalizing aromas of street food create an inviting atmosphere. The juxtaposition of historical sites like the Memorial Hall for Incheon Landing Operation with modern attractions such as the Incheon INSPIRE Resort provides a unique perspective on the city’s journey through time.

When to Experience Incheon at Its Best
Timing your visit to Incheon can significantly enhance your travel experience. The city enjoys a temperate climate, with four distinct seasons that each offer their own unique charm.

This season is perfect for outdoor activities and local festivals, making it a favorite among travelers.
Summer, running from July to August, brings warm weather and a lively atmosphere, ideal for beach lovers and those who enjoy outdoor events. The coastal beaches, such as Dongmak Beach and Masian Beach, become popular spots for swimming and sunbathing. However, it's essential to prepare for occasional rain showers during this time, so packing light rain gear could be a wise choice.
