The decision framework is FOURTH-GUEST BREAKPOINT. Maison Glad's current Premium Family Twin can reach a four-person product, while LOTTE City's official Deluxe Family Twin is capped at three. For 2 adults + 2 children, do not compare one-room headline prices until both OTAs have accepted the same adults, child ages and legal occupancy.
30-second decision
- Two adults: the breakpoint barely matters; compare normalized room, breakfast, cancellation and real amenity use.
- Three guests: both hotels can still stay inside a single family/twin booking unit depending on the live inventory.
- 2 adults + 2 children: Maison can preserve a one-room option more easily; LOTTE must be re-searched with all child ages to see what legal inventory appears.
- Four adults: do not assume any “max 4” wording applies to every live rate. Use the sellable room returned for four adults.
- Airport shuttle matters: Maison's fixed shuttle only has cash value when your flight actually connects with a usable slot.
The fourth guest can change the denominator
The source's key point is not that Maison is always cheaper for families. It is that the fourth guest may force the hotels onto different booking-unit structures. If one hotel can keep the party in one legal room and the other needs a different product or second unit, the correct comparison is one whole-party total against the other whole-party total.
Do not overprice “near the airport”
Both are already in the north-side Jeju City airport orbit. Once that common condition is accepted, repeatedly adding airport convenience to both sides does not help the decision. Maison's current shuttle has fixed times and capacity limits; LOTTE should not receive an invented shuttle value simply because its name includes “Airport.”
Normalize the stay before opening the OTAs
Fix dates, all guest ages, legal room count, full room name, bedding, breakfast, pool/package inclusions, cancellation and taxes. Only then compare the payable total.

Verdict
Maison Glad gains weight when a four-person party can stay legally in one room and the shuttle or resort-style extras will actually be used. LOTTE City remains viable when the live four-person inventory still works cleanly, or when the group is only two or three and the fourth-guest breakpoint disappears. Do not rank either hotel before the booking-unit count is fixed.
