Hotels in Busan currently start at about € 32 per night for two people, with a typical price of € 56 and € 78 for a comfortable 4-star room. Across the 258 properties we can book here, 84% of rooms can be cancelled free of charge; 30% include or offer breakfast; the average guest rating is 8.5/10.
Busan is a beach city and a port at the same time, stretched along the coast, so the usual question of a central location becomes a question of which beach. Haeundae is the famous one; Gwangalli has the bridge view and better bars. Rooms cost less than half of Seoul's.
Per night for two adults, taxes and fees included where the property reports them. Based on the 258 bookable properties we found for a two-night midweek stay a month ahead.
