Reviews for Kensington Jeju Hotel
Review 1:Only convenient for those who are driving. The only way u can get out and in the hotel is a long long steep slope. If u are not driving, u will hv to walk along the slope every time u go out for reaching the street to bus stop and other places.
Review 2:The staff and the service. Free welcome drinks served when check in. The spa and sauna are excellent. Free shuttle bus between hotel and airport is convenient.
Review 3:1) Heineken beer in the minibar - the choice of beer was poor I wish it was real beer either made in Korea or any other brand but Heineken was an absolute disappointment. 2) Choice of musician (duet performer) - wrong type of music played -depressing music and voice 3) artificial flower arrangement - real flowers and plants would add good vibe to the place 4) room was not ready to check in and had to wait for 1 hour :(
Review 4:1) Excellence service and attention to detail 2) free laundry facility to rinse and dry and 3) free mini bar replenished daily 4) size and appointment of the room 5) spacious all around
Review 5:A really beautiful hotel, in a gorgeous setting with fantastic facilities. The staff are wonderful and so keen to make your stay enjoyable. The free mini-bar is also an absolute winner!
Review 6:When we arrived (after 3pm) the room wasn't ready and we were told to wait 15 min because the room was still being checked. When we got into the room we found it to be very dirty. Wasn't it just checked? Simply not acceptable for any kind of hotel. Complained and got a new room which was also dirty... (although a little better) Complained again and told the front desk exactly what was wrong. Hope it will be better in the future. Rooms seemed a little old and could need renovation. Lots of scratches and bruises in the paint, doors and desk.
Review 7:great view, beautiful garden. Two big pools with big jacuzzis (both open till late). Different restaurants to choose from and the food we had was good. Staff was always very friendly but their english was not as good as I would expect from a 5-star hotel. Location was convenient but you should get a rental car. driving on jeju isn't difficult.
Review 8:Too far from beach, have to take taxi, though other beach hotels don't really have great beach access either. Beach is worth a visit though for the waves and people watching but not for bathing we found
Review 9:Excellent service, amazing roof top pool, great pool parties, large and comfy beds, great food with plenty of choice
Review 10:Jeju five star hotel has incredibly expensive price. Location is everywhere the same in jungmun area. in anyway you need to take your vehicle. I still dont know more than 700 dollars per day in jungmun area is fair.. Kensington is relatively better price but still for me it is expensive.
Review 11:The staff is amazing
Review 12:Service is a bit slow. Room was not ready till about 5 pm. Ordered baby crib, but was not ready.
Review 13:Wonderful staff attitude. Wonderful food! Wonderful fancilities!
Review 14:Only disappointment was when we requested for a late check out at 2 P m since our transfer to the airport was 2 p m they simply refused. And not that the hotel was fully occupied. We were totally disheartened.
Review 15:I liked the Fridge being well stocked and complimentry.
Review 16:Only two English language TV channels and no news Poor casual eating quality and choice A/C/heating failed Somewhat remote from ICC
Review 17:Room and beds very comfortable Good bathroom Free WiFi Extremely helpful staff
Review 18:@Pillow too soft. Not enough support. @Central Aircon set at the temperature of 28 C - too warm and cannot be adjusted individually. @my bedroom faces the entrance fountain and hotel carpark which is rather noisy at late evening and early morning. Nearly half of the rooms are facing that direction. Be mindful to confirm the direction of the room before booking.
Review 19:Didn't like the fact that I could not turn on the air con as the hotel setting means the whole place does not get air con in March, only central heating. Which meant the room was a bit stuffy and warm on the first night, I didn't like opening the balcony sliding door as we faced the car park for our second room (our first room was in the ground floor and we didn't feel safe leaving the balcony door open the whole night with our kids asleep). Such a lovely luxury 5 star hotel should most definitely allow guests the option to have air con any time of the year!!!
Review 20:Loved the art decor of the entire hotel. Loved the great food in the restaurants, especially the Korean one. Loved the whole ambience of the place, a very exclusive feel.
Review 21:Lovely room with an excellent bathroom (huge bath) and the Lush bath bomb was a nice touch. Food excellent and staff very friendly and helpful. Location, of course, excellent though for travelers new to Jeju,there is not really a sea view relative to other hotels in Jungman.
Review 22:The music from the rooftop pool party was loud enough to hear from our room past midnight.
Review 23:great staff, cool interior, and delicious breakfast. The complementary bath bomb was nice.
Review 24:F&B service was poor, All food (starter and main course) served together in italian restaurant. Cage restaurant l
Review 25:Stylish hotel, comfortable room.
Review 26:The massage on the hotel was weary good but it is weary expensive too. The price is double of the price outside the hotel.
Review 27:There is international food on this hotel and it is weary difficult to find hotel on Jeju island there have international food. That was our reason to take this hotel and we where not disappointed it was brilliant.
Review 28:The Kensington is a new, very well equipped hotel and the best choice in this tourist area. Unlike Lotte which are more Disneyland, and other which are a little aged, the Kensington is more distinguished, quiet, and with great interior. The staff is super-friendly, the rooms spacy and comfortable, so that you feel home. Free WLAN, sauna, and minibar (never had that before) with daily refill. Convenience store, small restaurants and shopping only 5 min walking away. The Kensington is a class of it's own and I can absolutely recommend it.
Review 29:The staff is inflexible. They could be warmer. I did not sleep the first night due to the hotel room being so hot. The hotel had no air conditioning available...only heat.
Review 30:Beautiful atrium and artwork. There are tons of nice seating areas around the hotel, which is very nice. The pool and outside area are fantastic. The pool lifeguards are the most attentive I have come across. Very nice when swimming with a young child. The Concierge was excellent.
Review 31:Nothing negative. We had a great stay. Maybe one advice for the hotel: put something flexible between outdoor and inside pool to keep wind and cold out. As I said, nothing negative to say. This could only be a tip for the hotel management
Review 32:The hotel is a very nice resort. Great design. The facilities are pleasant. Staff very friendly and helpfull.
Review 33:We were stunned by the unavailability of laundry service in this otherwise luxurious hotel. Some room equipment items have only controls marked in Korean, which makes it somewhat difficult to figure out how to operate them.
Review 34:Plentiful food options, tea and coffee, fine Italian restaurant with live music. Staff very helpful about organizing excursions.
Review 35:Piano player was not very good. Glass surrounds at infinity pool were not nice. Elevator signs "do not touch me" and "no leaning" were unnecessary and gave a negative feeling.
Review 36:Staff, food, drinks were all amazing. Walking distance to a golf club. Shower was really good. USB charging built into desk was great
Review 37:You can criticize always this and that. But here in Kensington therewas little to argue. A more recommendation would be, to change thedraft beer from Heineken to a genuine German brand, the only beerwithout chemie.
Review 38:We have been traveling to many places in the world and stayed in manyfirst class hotels and resorts, but Kensington marine in jungmun istoutstanding. It combines the Asian culture with some Europeanspecialities in a perfect way. The restaurants were all excellent,Italian and Korean the best. We will definitely come back soon. Even ourson, aged 22, will make promotion among his friends in Germany toorganize a tour. Rooftop bar and pool also unique and outstanding.Simply perfect.
Review 39:Hotel is a 500m walk from main road where you can find some convenient stalls and cafes.
Review 40:Premium service and spotless in their cleaning of the whole hotel property. Hotel has own (black colour) shuttle bus to the airport.
Review 41:10-15mins walk from Lotte hotel, no suttle bus and bus station.
Review 42:New hotel with well trained staff. Not crowd, we could have more private space in public areas.
Review 43:I like this hotel for certain reasons: an awesome swimming pool on the top of the hotel. Staff were friendly. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were very tasty and it was a variety of different food. Good location in Seongwimpo resort, close to beach. Moreover, it was not crowdy or noisy in the Kensington area/
Review 44:Breakfast selection was not that great. Western items were disappointing - Eggs were cold and bacon was not crispy. Also having check-in in the basement two at a tiny counter doesn't really make sense.
Review 45:What we liked best was that they had two pools and they kept one for families with kids and one kids-free. We really appreciated having our quiet pool time - and the rooftop surroundings were stunning. Also enjoyed the music they played at the poolside. Quality of food (especially during lunch)was excellent. Appreciated having the mini bar contents complimentary.
Review 46:That we had to go :-)
Review 47:Fantastic reception area with gigantic screen art behind lobby. Great reception of AMY. The hotel is shining new, style like Costes Paris, service like an Aman Resort, great views from the room to a fantastic waterfall art and the sea on the horizon. The food was great, the infinity pool on the rooftop with lounge style champagne happy hour and swim till 1 PM, unreal!!! Great management by SEO at the bar. As frequent travellers this was the best experience ever.
