Haebangsan Hotel

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This hotel appears to be non-notable. The references I can turn up to it are all passing and do not sound very notable. Lonely Planet Korea has a single sentence that reads, "Centrally located, this hotel has decent enough rooms, a good shop, pool tables and an office for booking international train tickets." The Rough Guide to Korea describes it in a passing reference and concludes, "...24-hour running water is not guaranteed. Another drawback is a near-total lack of atmosphere or on-site activities." Neither of these suggest notability, and do not seem to pass WP:GNG. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 02:37, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete The references are evidence of existence but there is no evidence (or claim in the article itself) that this hotel is notable. AllyD (talk) 12:09, 18 May 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete - Fails WP:GNG. The page does not even give any indication of its exact location, apart from telling us it is in North Korea. Unlike notable hotels such as the Raffles Hotel  in Singapore, the Waldorf Astoria New York or the Shepheard's Hotel  in Cairo, this North Korean hotel does not seem to deserve its own page, if all the creator of the article can tell us about it is the number of rooms it has. It could be included in the List of hotels in North Korea article giving its exact location, which should suffice. The deletion criteria at  Articles for deletion/Pothonggang Hotel apply here as well.--Zananiri (talk) 13:43, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
