Blueboat Hostel Gyeongju, hotel in Gyeongju

Located within 8 km of Gyeongju World and 22 km of Seokguram, Blueboat Hostel Gyeongju provides rooms with air conditioning and a shared bathroom in Gyeongju.

It was a room with four beds in it, but the blinds around the bunks made it very quiet and gave privacy. I slept a lot better than in any other dorm before! The shared breakfast area was amazing, it was clean, there was access to food to cook for yourself, and because it was pleasant to sit in, people started chatting. I got some good tips for local attractions to see. Because there was a problem with my train, I arrived very late, but after I informed the hostel, there was a very lovely elderly waiting for me on the street outside (at 11 o'clock!), who showed me around, helped me with everything and was generally very sweet and kind.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, within walking distance of the old town, historic sights, restaurants and shops. At the same time the hostel is in a quiet location. Facilities of the hotel are good (seating area, coffee, washing machine) and rooms are slightly bigger than average. Friendly owner. Recommended!

    We stayed in a private room which was clean and sized to the budget. There were free laundry facilities, which we were delighted to use. There was a good breakfast included. The bus station is nearby. The guesthouse / hostel was excellent and I would recommend it to anyone spending a few nights in Gyeongju on a budget.

    This is the best hostel I have been in Korea by far. Incredible cool areas, the owner was a traveller and he seems to know very well what backpackers are looking for. There is even a manga library and a videogame area! Quite geek everything. Very friendly and helpful staff. Clean, very good location and with a great ambiance, quite cheap and with a complet breakfast included, what more can you ask for?
