Summary of the Blog Post
Upon arrival, I was captivated by the exotic view from the entrance to the main gate of the Shilla Jeju. Despite it being a Sunday afternoon, the parking lot was almost full. There was a 5-star hotel sign at the Shilla Jeju entrance.
The check-in process was handled at a cozy check-in counter, where I completed the reservation and received a brief explanation. After that, I could collect the room key. Although the lobby’s ambiance felt a bit dated and inconvenient in some aspects, all those thoughts vanished once I entered the room. The room had an antique atmosphere, and it was cozy and luxurious.
From the room balcony, I could enjoy a beautiful garden view, which reminded me of an exotic Southeast Asian trip. The scenery was beyond my expectations. The bathroom felt a bit dated as well, but it had a bathtub, allowing me to enjoy a relaxing half-bath.
Overall, the first impression of the Shilla Jeju Hotel was a bit disappointing, but the room and the balcony’s stunning view exceeded my expectations.
