Positive: The Holiday Inn Gwangju by IHG was in an excellent location. There were several restaurants and cafes nearby. My tour guide said that she met her clients at the hotel often for tour pickups. The staff was helpful and attentive when I asked questions. They called a taxi for me when it was time to leave and were courteous at checkout. The bathroom was spacious and the beds were comfortable. I especially liked that there was a small convenience store located inside the hotel. It was perfect for quick snack and small item purchases. Great idea!
Negative: If you decide to eat in the restaurant for breakfast and did not make breakfast reservations when booking your room, go to the desk first to let them know you want breakfast. I decided to get breakfast the first morning of my stay, was seated at a table, and then told I had not made breakfast reservations when I booked my room. I had to go to front desk to correct. Small inconvenience, but easily solved. Breakfast was excellent. Thank you.
Summary: I would recommend this hotel.
