located very close to the main train station; large and clean room, very comfortable beds, nice bathroom with all you need; breakfast starts at 07:00AM and is quite nice, offering (day after day) various Korean food but also some European options - good coffee! btw, you can borrow pyjamas from them :-)

sincerely, we have no complaints, we found nothing to dislike!

Those beds... I still dream about it. Of course not everyone likes the same kind of mattress but it was perfect for me - firm but not too much, and those sheets were amazing. Good location, very easy to reach the fish market area, Gamcheon Culture Village, Songdo beach area and Taejondae Resort Park. Not much to do in the area at night, but that's not what we were looking for. Check-in is late but they stored our luggage in a separate room accessible only to staff before check-in, and they ask for your ticket to give you back your luggage. I think storage after check-out is different, and bags are left in the hallway. Right in front of the - always-staffed - front desk, but I would feel less comfortable leaving my stuff then.

Breakfast was meh. Mostly Korean food, which I didn't particularly enjoy, and bread with what's supposed to be margarine but it was the worst I've ever had in my life Late check-in (4PM) AND early check-out (10AM). I'm fine with one or the other, but both is slightly taking the piss imho Some context for those who read comments complaining about the hotel's location: Busan is VERY spread out. There's simply no location in town that will allow you to reach everywhere easily. If you're just staying 1-2 days in the city, book a hotel close to the places you want to visit it. If you're staying longer, then either book 2 accommodations during your stay in different parts of town, or accept you will have to spend 1h/1h30 in transports at times to reach where you want to go.

If you're staying with family, the adjoining room options and breakfast buffet make this a great option. This older hotel is actually very clean and the beds were super-comfortable. The adjoining room setup had 2 large beds on each "wing" and a couch with table, TV and separate AC in the middle area. It was very roomy and comfortable for 2 parents and 2 kids. The 2 bathrooms made this a very comfortable set up. There was just 1 small fridge and 1 small desk, but that was enough. Breakfast buffet was great! It was a small selection, but everything was good including white rice, fried rice, kimchi, oden, salad, toast, and more. All of the service staff were great and friendly. Additionally, there are plug adapters available to borrow at the front desk. Note - they are not voltage adapters, so your power supply needs to accommodate 220v.

Some of the front desk staff were very stiff and aloof if you didn't speak Korean. I could use English or Japanese, but it was very obvious there was a difference in demeanor towards Korean-speaking customers.

Incredibly good value stay for the price! Excellent location, walking distance from main Busan station, and to bus stop and subway stop. Area around has nice cafes and restaurants aplenty. Clean, comfortable room. Small, but expected from this type of business hotel chain. Bathroom with a bidet and a washing line above the bath so you can dry your laundry. Fast free wifi. Coin laundry downstairs which works well. Water supplied by housekeeping AND a water dispenser downstairs, which is great. Also very nice staff who were very efficient with their work. Breakfast generally very good and Asian style with soups, rice, pickles, warm dishes. (although I would probably add another sweet option to what was available, like yoghurt)

Relatively poor soundproofing/loud pipes - I could hear rooms above me flushing. Elevators can get busy during breakfast time due to the size of the hotel (20+ floors), so you may end up waiting for a while. Breakfast finished a bit early (9am) since check out was also quite early at 10. I guess this is due to this being a business hotel, but even an extra 30 minutes would help.

The hotel is only 4-5 minutes walk away from the nearest bus stop and 10-15 minutes walk from Busan station. The breakfast was delicious, although on sunday its better to be early. I really liked sea view from the room, especially around sunset. The room was very clean, had everything a traveler needs. The bathroom had a bidet-like toilet. Staff was very kind and helpful. They hung clean towels and another bottle of water on my door handle even though I didn’t ask room cleaning for 2 nights.

The doors had an alarm like sound if it was not closed properly and I wake up to that alarm sound at night when another guest came back to his/her room and didn’t close the door properly without realising it for minutes.

The front desk staff were helpful. Breakfast was good. They went out their way to make fresh dumplings every morning. That was impressive! Of course, great location! 5 mins walk from Chinatown and Busan train station. As for the room, loved the bed and the bathtub. Water pressure was great!

Didn't clean the room properly. Still could find tea stain in one of the cups. They would only change the bedsheet after the fourth night. Also, very rigid in terms of the cleaning time. They would only clean the room from 10am to 3pm. Wasn't allowed in the room until 3pm. No toothpaste nor toothbrush in the room.

This Toyoko-Inn is located fairly close to Busan station, about a 10~15 minute walk (20 minutes tops if you're walking slowly). The room and bathroom were clean. It only contains the essentials: bed, desk, lamp, TV, fridge, etc. Part of the fridge was broken, but it didn't stop it from working normally. The bed was comfortable. Soaking in the tub after a long day walking was the best part. The toilets are very powerful. The clothing line is really useful. Breakfast was a Korean buffet with a simple toast, jam, butter and cereal options on the side. It's nice that breakfast was included. The facility has laundry machines and dryer, but we didn't use that option. Best part: Neighbors are very quiet! I don't know if the room is soundproof or the neighbors were just pleasantly quiet, but we were able to get good nights sleep every day of our stay. It was wonderful.

When I visit Busan, my 1st choice of accommodation is Toyoko-Inn. Rooms are clean, good breakfast and location to most places very convenient. It's value for money and the property does not look dated or tired. I have stayed twice at the Jungang property and once at the Seomyeon property.

The late 16:00 hours check-in policy. It would have been nice if they allowed a check-in by 14:00 hours. After a long overnight flight and having to wait till almost end of day to check-in was a bit of a stretch. Toyoko-Inn may want to revisit their check-in policy. It would also be nice if there was a bigger lounging area for coffee and snacks. Not possible to do this in the compact rooms for small groups.

2nd time staying at this branch. The room was more than made up for by the cleanliness, the range of amenities, and the warmth of the staff. The hotel’s proximity to dining, coffee spots, and public transport made it an ideal base for exploring the city. With additional perks like free buffet breakfast, it was a place where comfort and convenience were prioritized. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a practical yet pleasant stay in a well-connected and vibrant area.

This is my third stay in Toyoko-Inn Busan Jungang Station in last 10 years and I was never disappointed! Hotel is 15 minutes walk from the Busan train station. Also there is a metro station in 5 min walk distance. Hotel is also 10 min. walk from the Lotte mall, and Jagalchi Fish Market. and 15 minutes walk from the famous BIFF Square Rooms are OK size for Korean standards, but keep in mind that not as big as the ones in Europe. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Toilet is equipped with electronic bidet. Every day you get a bottle of water. Wi-Fi was free of charge and worked flawlessly. Breakfast was Korean style, but good. Also there a few western options. Staff at the reception is very helpful and kind. Overall definitely a good stay in Busan close to many attractions at an affordable price :)
