Places to stay in Gyeongnam (and epic natural scenery is guaranteed!)

Besides eating and sight-seeing, accommodations provide ways for tourists to better understand the local region culturally, and even sometimes historically.

Gyeongnam is filled with lodging facilities that guarantee joy and adventure, and today, we will introduce one in each Tongyeong, Namhae County, Sancheong County and Gimhae.

Around 40 islands of various shapes and sizes make Tongyeong, which provides an endless list of tourist attractions, both for the eyes and mouth. 

The Tongyeong Agit Guesthouse is one the most popular guesthouses in Tongyeong, as it's a great place to mingle with other travelers and get to know each other. Rooms are separated by gender, and those for women are equipped with a powder room. Wi-Fi is free. A gathering is opened for guests every night, and participation costs 10,000 won for each person.

If you’re looking for a luxurious place to stay in Gyeongnam, the Hilton Namhae Golf and Spa Resort would just be your pick.

Twenty 2-story villas make the resort, and each living room faces the ocean, while you'll also find a mini-swimming pool and a garden at the front lawn.  

When visiting Sancheong County, Korea's home of herbal medicine, try booking a room at Namsayedam Village, which was previously chosen as the country's most beautiful lodging area.

If you wonder what Korea looked like centuries ago, one great way is to visit Namsayedam Village, where everything from roads to houses are perfectly preserved.

A number of houses provide accommodations and various experience-based programs, including cooking potatoes in a stone grave, learning the past livelihoods of locals, and collecting honey. Other programs include learning table manners for eating traditional Korean food, hansik, and drinking tea.
