Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Haeundae
White curves rising directly from the Haeundae shore — the Westin's tower delivers ocean rooms with unimpeded views of the famous beach and the container ships beyond. The outdoor pool terraces, the spa, and the reliable Westin Heavenly bed have made it the most booked hotel in Busan for international leisure travellers.
Centum City
Fifty-six floors of steel and glass on the Marine City waterfront — Park Hyatt Busan opened as a statement, and has spent the years since proving it was deserved. Rooms begin at the 30th floor so every window is a skyline panorama; The Lounge on 51 and the rooftop pool at night command the most dramatic view in Korea's second city.
Haeundae
The grande dame of Haeundae Beach — opened in 1978, and the hotel that first gave the strip its sophistication. The Paradise's casino, multiple restaurants including the excellent Chinese restaurant Manchenlu, and rooms with direct beach views make it the most atmospheric full-service resort on Busan's most famous stretch of sand.
Haeundae
Commanding the northern end of Haeundae Beach with a distinctive blue-glass wave facade — Korea's own hotel chain at its most ambitious. The Lotte's Crystal Ballroom, the Japanese teppanyaki restaurant Motoya, and the signature pool deck establish it as the social anchor of Haeundae's luxury strip.
Haeundae
Lotte's ultra-luxury brand occupies floors 95–101 of the LCT Landmark Tower — Busan's tallest building and one of the highest hotel starts in the world. The views are appropriately stratospheric, the butler service meticulous, and the STAY restaurant by Guillaume Galliot has earned serious culinary recognition.
Centum City
Facing the BEXCO convention centre in Centum City — Busan's commercial heart — the Novotel Ambassador is the business traveller's default for proximity to the conference circuit. Clean, reliable, well-maintained, with a useful subway connection to Haeundae and the port.
