Many travelers are looking for cultural heritages from the Silla Dynasty in Gyeongju, but a lot of people also come to this city for business purposes. For this reason, there are many accommodations for businesspeople in different corners of Gyeongju. Rivertain Hotel is one of them. This hotel is located right next to the bus terminals and offers a variety of benefits and facilities for both travelers and businesspeople. Let’s take a look.
Rivertain Hotel Gyeongju offers six types of rooms. The most basic types are Standard and Twin. These two types of rooms are the same in size, but they have different types of beds. Unlike other hotels where Standard Rooms have one queen bed and one twin bed, the Standard Room of Rivertain Hotel Gyeongju has two queen beds to offer greater comfort. The Triple Room has three super-single beds, as a useful option for when traveling with friends or family members.

While the Suite has a king-sized bed, the Suite Terrace Room has a queen-sized bed but with a separate terrace space. If you are looking for a cozier bed, the Suite would be the right choice. The Suite Terrace Room is the perfect choice for those who want to enjoy a unique terrace of Rivertain Hotel.
