Overall, I was satisfied, but when I spit out water to brush my teeth in the bathroom sink, there was a ton of black mold on the inner silicone finishing. The room itself was dusty, perhaps because they only cleaned the places that were directly visible. Since we were traveling with three people, we booked a room with one single and one double bed. It would be good for watching baseball, but it was so hot that I arrived a little early, but around 1 o'clock..? I was disappointed that early check-in was not possible. ㅜㅜ When I went back at the check-in time, the reception didn't seem that crowded. It definitely didn't feel like a staycation, but I recommend staying for a day or so when you're going on business or watching baseball.

Wonderful hotel. Very clean, quiet, and the rooms are big!
Check-in and -out were very simple and smooth. A convenience store is directly located in the hotel which was a great bonus. Parking space is very big as well and available for free. Perfect for a weekend trip!

The air was good and quiet in a quiet place in Gwangju.
The facilities were old, but I didn't feel old in the room because of the remodeling.
There are many things to enjoy around, especially the breakfast is delicious. Good value for money. I stay here every time I go because of my business trip to Gwangju. All the staff are friendly.

We stayed in the suite, the jet bathtub was very clean and spacious. The bed was hard but had a heated mattress pad so would be very comfortable in the winter. The A/C was not in the bedroom so took a while to cool off in the summer. Staff was friendly and helpful!

SSarah Lois YongA 15-minute bus ride away (depends on traffic) from the Gwangjusongjeong KTX Train station. A hotel with very cheerful and friendly staff! Bright, clean and spacious room with toiletries that smell so good (relaxing tangerine scent). Bed is really comfortable. Good sound-proofing (for light sleepers).
Breakfast is a self-help bar. I was too shy to cook noodles and fry eggs in front of other guests. Gimbap (seaweed rice rolls) was good with my coffee.
Recommendations for food and places of interests were compiled neatly in a folder in the room. I tried the 낙지 (baby octopus) restaurant and visited the Asia Culture Centre. A worthwhile trip!
Aside from Naver Map needed to navigate the location of the hotel from the bus stop, I was quite pleased with everything else.
AAshley jijiStayed in Aura Hotel for 1 night during my travel.
Location is perfect if you are arriving at the Gwangju-Songjeong train station because it is only 5 minutes walk away from it.
The rooms were very spacious and quite clean.
Would recommend! Will stay at this hotel again.
GGuest UserI have to say that the breakfast is really delicious. There are traditional Korean food, fruits, salads, bread, Shin Ramen, and the restaurant lady is also very kind. The room is very clean. The only shortcoming is that there are no free toiletries. If you book a family room, the child will be charged 22,000 per night separately. It's a rip-off. Only this hotel is like this
AAnonymous UserThe front desk reception is warm and patient. After all, it is a brand chain hotel. The room is clean and tidy. The view from the room is invincible. It is very quiet at night and suitable for deep sleep. The surrounding dining is also very convenient. I will choose this hotel again for business trips in the future.
SStephanie ChewThe hotel is near business district (I think). For breakfast, you need to be at least 30 minutes early otherwise the ahjuma will clear up the food and leave the place on the dot. The room is big and clean too.
GGuest UserI was looking for a hotel near the Gwangju Bus Terminal where even a woman can stay with peace of mind and decided here.
It was in a really convenient location and the room was clean and the towels were clean, so I immediately went through the procedure for consecutive nights at the front desk.
I had breakfast once, but there were many kinds and it was very delicious.
It is a fixed camp decision in Gwangju (^-^) /
EEffyOhhWe had booked a deluxe double room for 3 people and were told the day we were arriving that it wasn't possible. Trip contacted us to sort it out and we were ready to pay an extra room and sorti it later. But when we arrived, they surprisingly were very nice about it and didn't mind when they saw ”reservation for 3 people” so we got a nice room for 3 people and they even gave us extra amenities (shampoo, shower gel...)
We also had breakfast for the 3 people (which was also surprising as it said for 2) nothing amazing but fresh fruits and a few other things we didn't eat.
Staff were very very friendly and accommodating so i would recommend and also visit again if I'm going back to gwangju.
SSarahBraithwaite77Stayed for 4 nights in private room. Small but compact room with drawers and shelves for storage. Good hot working shower. Comfortable beds and efficient air con and fan. Plenty of food options and shops around as close to the university and good transport links to major attractions. Shared kitchen, small but everything you need. Due to this being shared, it was not always the cleanest as not everyone takes responsibility to clean after themselves. Hosts were LOVELY. Really friendly and always around for a chat. We sat with them for dinner one evening and we're given local fruits to try. Cheap and convenient.
LLynneI liked the spacious room and bathroom. The location was good, for it is surrounded by restaurants. It was about 6 km away from Gwangju Songjeong Station. The room was very clean, and had enough amenities. I loved that the room had a veranda, with table and chair. There was a laptop computer in my room too. I would stay there again.
GGuest UserI will rest well and visit again.
I came to Gwangju and took home good memories thanks to you.
The room condition was good for the price and the breakfast was good.
