Accommodation in South Korea

  1. Traditional Hanok
    If you want to get a deep understanding of South Korean culture, you can choose to stay in a hanok (traditional Korean house) to feel the unique traditional atmosphere of this architectural style.

Whether you’re strolling through the courtyard between the wooden structures or sitting in the spacious hallways with a wide view, you can appreciate the natural scenery and enjoy a leisurely, relaxed atmosphere.

Traditionally, hanok were places where people slept on the floor with bedding, but now more and more hanok are equipped with modern conveniences like beds. From traditional hanok to those modernized with a new interpretation of the style, and from large hanok in rural areas to small ones in city centers, you can experience a variety of hanok accommodations. Some hanok even offer traditional experiences such as tea ceremonies and cooking activities.

  1. Hotels
    Korea offers a wide range of hotel options, from the highest-end five-star hotels to budget-friendly business hotels, allowing you to choose based on your personal preferences and budget.

Some luxury hotels not only have comprehensive facilities but also offer beautiful city views and beach experiences.

  1. Resorts
    Resorts in South Korea offer a highly personalized accommodation experience, ranging from modest small-scale resorts to luxurious villas with swimming pools, each with its own unique style. Many resorts even become popular photo spots on social media platforms because of their art piece-like architecture or dreamlike landscapes.

  2. Camping
    If you want to enjoy the enchanting natural views of South Korea, you can choose to camp at campsites in the mountains or by the sea, enjoying a different kind of pleasure amidst breathtaking scenery.

Besides dedicated campsites, some hotels and resorts also offer camping facilities where you can enjoy the fun of camping in a comfortable and convenient way.

  1. Guesthouse
    The advantage of guesthouses is that they are relatively affordable compared to other types of accommodations. Rooms range from dormitory-style rooms to single and double rooms, with some offering female-only guesthouses.

Some guesthouses also host parties in the evenings. If you’re looking to interact with locals and fellow travelers from around the world, you can check the activity information of each guesthouse when making your selection.

China Essence with Natural Wonders Exploration

May 05th, 2026, Couple

We traveled to China during 05th May to 17th May, 2026. Here goes our comment.

Guilin & Yangshuo:

Mr. Tom was an excellent guide in every aspect. He made every experience a great adventure and beyond. With his energy and knowledge, he adjusted the schedule with extra activities such as visiting the pandas, which made it extra special. He is good at explaining everything in a clear and succinct way, since much is guiding us, we loved our time in China and couldn’t have done it without Tom. He is also frequently offering helpful knowledge we very much appreciated. He also took great pictures of us. Mr. Kong, the driver is very courteous & flexible.

Zhangjiajie, Furong & Fenghuang town:

Allen is a capable and smart guide who has an optimistic and patient personality. We feel fortunate to have her. She is very good at arranging the schedule and navigating the towns’ sights in an efficient manner. We appreciate her help to negotiate with the photographer and provide us good seats and advice. The driver Mr. Lee is a safe & excellent driver who is courteous to us, other drivers and pedestrians. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in the Zhengzhou area. The hotel was excellent!

Beijing:

Ray Liu is a very knowledgeable and smart guide with excellent English. We learned a lot from him about Chinese history, culture, and current life. He is on time and capable. He shared with us a lot of interesting facts and information, and it was easy to talk to him because he is friendly, talkative and has fluent English. Ray knows his way around & got us everywhere, and it was nice there was a charge port in the back. He can be more courteous to bikers & pedestrians, but we got everywhere safely.

Amazing High End Travel Company in China

This is the second time we plan a trip with Best Asia Tours and we love their service and attention to detail as well as their willingness to make your trip memorable and anything you want possible. Their planning is impecable and very efficient and if anything is not as you expected they will work to make sure it is. we did a 21 day itinerary for 7 including 2 grandmas back on 2018 and we just went back a couple of weeks ago with our daughter for 12 days and had an awesome time. We are already planning the next one. Zoe and Eric who had help us with the travel planning were both amazing their speed to comeback with the itineraries and changes is impressive and not matter how many times you ask them to look at changes or different hotels etc they are always willing to help with the most wonderful attitude . All the guides we had on the different cities and regions have be incredible . I can not recommend them enough. I have traveled al over the world and they are definitively on the top service of the agencies I had used.

Classic Japan Tour, Tokyo, Mt.Fuji, Osaka, Kyoto

Aug 2025

Best Asia Tours did a really good job planning our itinerary in Japan. Some times we had issues coming up I think mostly related to cultural differences, but our agent was amazing and went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we were comfortable and the trip was perfect. The hotels are centrally located, very easy to access to the city center. The guide and driver are friendly and nice. We spend a pleasant and amazing journey there.
