Glan House & Glan Store Overview

You know what caught me off guard about Glan House & Glan Store? The name actually tells you everything you need to know – this isn’t just a place to sleep, it’s genuinely part of the local fabric. I mean, how often do you find a hotel that’s literally half accommodation, half store? It sounds gimmicky when you first hear about it, but honestly, it works in the most charming way possible.

The whole setup feels refreshingly authentic, especially if you’re tired of those cookie-cutter chain hotels. The store part isn’t some tourist trap either – locals actually shop there, which tells you something about how integrated this place is with the community. I loved being able to grab essentials or local products without having to venture out, particularly on those lazy mornings when you just want coffee and maybe something to snack on. The staff genuinely knows their stuff too, both about the rooms and whatever they’re selling downstairs. Actually, the person who checked me in ended up giving me the best restaurant recommendation of my entire trip – you can’t get that kind of insider knowledge at a big hotel chain.

What really impressed me was how they’ve managed to maintain that personal touch while still hitting all the marks you’d expect from a solid 3-star place. The rooms are clean and comfortable without being fancy (though honestly, who needs fancy when everything just works?). I was worried about noise levels given the dual nature of the business, but it was surprisingly quiet – even during what seemed like busy shopping hours. The 9.2 rating makes total sense once you spend a night there. It’s not about luxury amenities or Instagram-worthy lobbies, it’s about that feeling of staying somewhere that actually matters to the people who run it. You can tell they care about getting the details right, from the quality of the linens to making sure the WiFi doesn’t cut out when you need it most. If you’re looking for somewhere with character that doesn’t sacrifice comfort, this place hits that sweet spot perfectly.

Reviews of Glan House & Glan Store

  • Chai from South Korea (10/10)

    It was clean and comfortable! Better than what I have expected. The staff was very helpful too. The apartment was spacious so both adults and children had a good time there. I parked my car at the car park and there was also a convenient store right next to the car park.
