Pothonggang Hotel[edit]

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

Appears to be a non-notable run of the mill hotel with no notability claims. An anon-IP deprodded the listing stating that being a North Korean hotel makes it notable. If it was the only hotel in North Korea, perhaps. But it is one of many, and as such does not appear to be notable. ConcernedVancouverite (talk) 15:32, 21 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Notable as it is a North Korean hotel. The category of NK hotels includes fewer than 20 hotels so they are all notable. --ЗAНИA ^talk ^{WB talk}] 12:59, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. That is a very odd argument for inclusion, I must say. There are certainly no WP policies to support such an approach. Qworty (talk) 02:37, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep Maybe there is more than meets the eye. ₪RicknAsia₪ 01:35, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Merge Tourism in North Korea seems a unique enough subject that its few hotels are likely (not automatically) notable. But with only one source, best to merge this into the relevant entry at List of hotels in North Korea for the time being, without prejudice against a standalone article if further sources are discovered. --BDD (talk) 05:31, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I fail to see how this hotel deserves its own page. Does not meet WP:GNG either. It could be included in the existing 'Hotels' section of the Pyongyang article which makes more sense.--Zananiri (talk) 16:27, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
