- I stayed at Seogwipo KAL Hotel using my expiring mileage points. Although it is an old hotel, it was well-maintained and had a classic atmosphere.
- In particular, the ocean view from the room was fantastic, and I could enjoy the beautiful garden and the ocean along the promenade.
- The service was also excellent, and the friendly staff's hospitality enhanced the luxurious feel of the KAL Hotel.
I had some expiring mileage, so I stayed at the Seogwipo KAL Hotel using it.
You can refer to the following post for how to pay with mileage.
In this post, I'll be leaving a review of the KAL Hotel.
I stayed in a standard twin room for two adults.
It was a room with two beds: one double bed and one single bed.
Seogwipo KAL Hotel Location
It's located in the heart of Seogwipo, so it takes a little over an hour to get there from the airport. However,
Seogwipo tourist attractions and Olle Market are nearby, making it a good location for exploring Seogwipo.
Address:
242 Chilsip-riro, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do
Seogwipo KAL Hotel Parking Lot
The parking lot is outdoors, but it's quite large, so you don't have to worry about parking.
There are a lot of spots near the entrance, but if they're full, there are plenty of spaces further up front. It's just a bit of a walk from there.
Seogwipo KAL Hotel Exterior
Night view of the KAL Hotel
Morning view of the KAL Hotel
It's definitely a place where older generations went on their honeymoons. It's beautifully maintained with palm trees and lawns.
The morning view feels like you're overseas, and it's even more beautiful.
Internal Facilities
KAL Hotel's facilities
Swimming pool: There is an indoor pool, but it's very small, so it's not a good idea to come here just for the pool.
If you have kids, they can play without too many people around.
You can see the inside of the pool from the basement level outside, so you can check the size and how crowded it is.
The outdoor pool looked like it hadn't been used for quite a while.
KAL Hotel Restaurant
Lunch and dinner are served, and they can also be paid for with mileage.
Overall, the KAL Hotel is old, but it feels like it's been well maintained.
Guest Room
It has a small TV that's not smart, space for luggage, and free bottled water.
The bathroom is also old, but it's been cleaned well.
It felt like stepping back in time, which was nice. lol
There were Castelbel amenities, which smelled great, and other amenities.
Toothbrushes and toothpaste weren't provided, like in other hotels.
Clean bathroom and shower
Hotel gown, safe, and slippers
One double bed + one single bed
They were so soft and comfortable that I slept like a log.
And the KAL Hotel's pride and joy: the ocean view.
The walkway, palm trees swaying in the wind, the ocean, the distant islands, and the sky...
It was a perfect view.
Just staring out at it makes you feel happy, it's such a great view :)
Walkway
There's a walkway that takes about 20-30 minutes to walk around.
If you're staying at the KAL Hotel, I highly recommend taking a walk. You can see the beautiful ocean and the well-maintained garden is a sight to behold.
You can also choose to take a longer route through the woods if you want.
I found a tennis court while walking. If you have time, you can play tennis here, right? ㅎㅎ
I found a spot where you can get a closer look at the ocean.
It's even more beautiful with Jeju cactus.
If you walk along the walkway for a bit, you'll reach the loop trail, and there's a path to the Honeymoon House, which is also very pretty.

Overall Review
The KAL Hotel is overall old, but
it feels like it's been meticulously cared for over a long time, despite its age.
It clearly shows that they don't simply replace things with new ones, but rather embrace the old in its own luxurious way.
Every piece of furniture inside and the garden outside were elegant.
Also, the front desk staff, the doormen, everyone
was incredibly service-oriented and respectful, making me feel like the elegance of the KAL Hotel was woven into their every action.
Ultimately, those who are expecting a new hotel might be a bit disappointed, but
I recommend it to those who come for the ocean view, service, and the great location in the heart of Seogwipo.
