Busan: The Westin Chosun

We had a hard time choosing which hotel to stay in Busan. After doing much research, we decided to settle for The Westin Chosun, Busan.

We chose this hotel because:
 - we wanted to stay in a hotel by the Haeundae Beach
 - it was recommended by some forumers
 - brand name (everyone knows Westin, so we were quite sure that we will enjoy our stay there)
 - price (cheaper than Paradise hotel, though its just a little cheaper... but a bit of savings is better than none)

Don't really remember how much we paid for the hotel but i think it should be slightly less than S$300 per night and there's wifi access from our room. I'm actually quite surprised cos normally if you stay in Westin, free wifi is only limited to the lobby area and you'll have to pay if you want wifi access in your room.

The nearest metro station nearest to the hotel is Dongbeak station (Green Line, Station 204).

 

 

 

After coming out from Dongbeak Exit 1, walk straight all the way for approx. 800m and you'll be able to see the hotel on your left.

Another point that worth mentioning is that the hotel is near the Dongbeak Island Park. Coincidentally, we were there during the Busan International Fireworks Festival! We were not aware until we were there. We quickly head to the Dongbeak Island Park. From there, we could see the fireworks from the Gwangalli Beach. It was so beautiful and the fireworks lasted for around 1 hour!Come to think of it, actually they are quite rich to have this Firework Festival (i think for 2 days) every year. Heheh....
