I’m a 62yo female solo traveller from Australia. I stayed at ACC Design for 2 nights and loved it. The staff were lovely, bed had fresh white sheets and cover with good normal pillows. The aircon was just right, place was super clean, quiet and had great block out curtains. I found the size and set out of the room good-the sink is separate to the shower/toilet area which I find a bonus. Only minor negative is heavy glass bathroom door which can’t stay open. But that’s really insignificant, It’s in a great walkable area to the shops-1min walk out the door to yr left. PS Try the restaurant Chun Li right next door where all the locals go. They don’t speak English but are helpful. Healthy food and free soft serve ice creams. A great hotel for the price.

The location is perfect since it's just across ACC (Asian Culture Centre) where a lot is happening - it's not too loud though. The accommodation itself if clean and has everything you need. The common area is great and the rooftop terrace is perfect. The owner is also very kind. The room is great in general and it was nice to have a "private" bathroom to the room.

It is a very comfortable and clean hotel with spacious rooms and a very good location in the middle of the most lively part of the city and main shopping area with lots of restaurants. Even though we didn’t hear any noise from the street at all. It’s also near main tourist sights. There is also a nice running trail along the nearby river canal.

Room was very spacious and clean. It has a double door that blocked out noise from outside. Besides a long desk with laptop to use for free, there was also a coffee table with an armchair and stool. There was a LG Tromme Stylus for use in the room to dry and sanitised clothes.

Gwangju is the 6th largest city in Korea.

Gwangju is the 6th largest city in Korea. There’s plenty to do and see, but is definitely at least a weekend trip. However, there is something for everybody — whether you’re into hiking, history, shopping, or eating. Gwangju is also pretty spread out depending on what you want to do/see so plan accordingly and make note of where things are! Make sure to go to a Kia Tigers Baseball Game when you’re there!

I stayed in Gwangju for a week primarily to do an event with the world famous Koran Randonneur Cycling Club. A 600k Gwangju-Busan-Gwangju. The ride started near City Hotel which is also located near the bike paths along the river. While in Gwangju I visited the very excellent Gwangju Museum of Art and the Cemetery. Gwangju seems like a very livable city with (at least) two universities and a vibrant industrial, commercial sector.

Gwangju publicises itself as an arts and culture centre.

Gwangju publicises itself as an arts and culture centre. It has a fantastic national museum and an interesting modern art museum. A Famous K-pop star BTS J Hope) comes from there and there is a cool area with cool shops and restaurants. I would have stayed a couple more days to see some more things but my accommodation wasn't to my liking and I moved on. If you like history, culture and art you will find things to do and see in Gwangju.
