Mona Yongpyong
8.6/5288 Reviews
Advantages Conveniently situated Generously sized accommodations Impressive amenities Perfect for family trips, this place offers all the amenities you need, just like an Airbnb. You'll find a cooker, pots and pans and cutlery readily available. Conveniently located near a variety of dining options Drawbacks The staff had limited English proficiency, making communication quite challenging. Upon our early arrival at around 11am, we found the reception area to be deserted. Along with other guests, we were left waiting at the counter, unsure of what to do. Finally, around 1pm, a receptionist appeared. However, rather than simply informing us that check-in was only possible after two, they made each guest wait in queue to deliver the same message. Upon returning to the reception at 2, we were informed that we had to wait an additional hour. This experience was quite unprofessional and made it challenging to enjoy other activities
KensingtonHotel Seorak
8.5/598 Reviews
Was really looking forward to my stay at the Kensington Hotel Seorak. But when I pay $263AU / night I have a certain expectation that a 4 star hotel will live up to the hype. The service at the check-in desk and in the restaurant was excellent. The hotel itself exudes 'history' and it was interesting spending time looking at the library, hallways and various displays on offer. The menus were adequate for our stay and we spent 29000KRW on the chicken and beer offer on the first night and the steak and wine (120000KRW) on the second night. Breakfasts were 29000KRW/pp or 10% off if you book at check-in were also value for money. However several aspects let the hotel down. Hot water was hard to get - I tried for an afternoon shower and again at midnight with no luck. Larger hotels in Korea tend to have central control over the air conditioning, so if you like a cool room you'll be out of luck by October?? Even having the small window open, and turning of the 'air conditioning, the room was stuffy. Having found a laundry bag and order form I was told that the hotel no longer offered that service. Disappointing. The towels were worn / frayed on the edges (they've passed their useabe date) and though the hotel room we were in had a great view the windows were so grubby it was hard to really enjoy the view. While I appreciate COVID has had an impact on the hotel industry generally, I'm pretty certain that the Kensington, with its views and proximity to Seoraksan, faired better than most. While I would stay here again I would like to think that for prime pricing the Kensington could up its game and ensure that such small issues were addressed.
Ocean 2 You Resort Seorak Beach Hotel & Condo
8/5255 Reviews
I had a comfortable 2-night trip with the kids. The ocean is right in front, so it was nice to be able to see the sunrise right from the accommodation. The staff was friendly, too... but the water pressure in the bathroom shower was weak, and I was a little embarrassed at first because there was a smell like a sewer coming up~~
Elysian Gangchon Resort
8.6/553 Reviews
The location of the resort was fantastic, ski in ski out. The staff gave us a room with 4 beds and a kitchen so everyone got a bed instead of having 2 of us sleep on the floor. The condo was warm and had everything we needed. There were lots of space and definitely big enough for a family of 4 with 5 suitcases. The breakfast was super and the restaurants there provided the variety needed for the 4d5n. In addition, there were more food choices in the skiing area. They have a carpark in the basement and we didn’t move our hired car the whole duration. The cleaner only came in to give us towels and they never cleaned the room though. They only had a handful of hangers so it was just enough for the ski coats. Only new little towels were provided, but we knew ahead of time so we brought our own big towels. For what we paid, I am extremely pleased with what we got. If we do come back to this ski resort, we will definitely stay here again.
Dignity Hotel
8.9/5220 Reviews
Dignity Hotel is located right next to the ocean, so for sea-loving folks, this is the place for you! Naksan Temple is 20mins away, but the beautiful ocean will keep you occupied while you stroll over. Room-wise, the room is very spacious, with a large walk in dressing room and a lounging area. It is also very quiet at night (it is the countryside after all!) and you will be guaranteed a good rest. Amenities around the areas are sparse as it is still low-season (for instance, the nearest well-stocked convenience store is 20 mins away). So I recommend to purchasing the morning buffet at the hotel restaurant so you wouldn’t go hungry in the mornings while thinking about where to explore. Regardless, I expect the area to be much more accessible during the high-season of summer, so plan accordingly! All in all, if I return to Yangyang, Dignity Hotel will be my first choice in selecting a place to stay. I had a wonderful time there.

Donghae Donghaeleulkeulida Pension
7.6/56 Reviews
Location is neutral, drove there. Good parking space along the road. Cleanliness can be better improved as there are still hair in the toilet. Service is good and owner assisted us with our luggage up to thr floor that we are staying. View was good too with the sea! Room has good amenities such as fridge, 2 wash basins, hangers, tables and chairs. 4 towels for 1 night too which is good as some places dont even give so many towels. Tooth paste is also provided. For showering, quite difficult to get the correct temperature, need some to get used to it. Not very sound proof. Room is big and the space is good for 2 people! Overall, good place to stay in especially if u drove to Donghae! Gave high rating as nothing much to complained about though it is not the best~
UH FLAT The Sokcho
9.1/5174 Reviews
Location : not far from Sokcho express bus terminal and Sokcho intercity terminal by taxi/bus , exact location in Maps but don’t have any sign outside the building. Can walk to Sokcho market, GS25, King Crab restaurants. Room : New and clean, I have ever stayed in Busan branch before here is a bit tiny space for 4 people. Have enough nessesary amanities including automatic toilet, only 2 bottles of water/day. Maid make up the room every day. My room have a side of habour view = you have to lean out from the balcony to see the sea view. Receptionist : kind & polite, 24 hrs at front. Could request to call a taxi but somes dont use the taxi metre and ask for higer price. Kakao taxi is better.
Yangyang Purple 315
8.8/55 Reviews
It’s a nice hotel. Close to the beach, but not much variety of food nearby. All restaurants sell the same dishes, so prepare to travel if you don’t want to eat the same food every day. Overall, the room was clean and the staff provided fresh towels and amenities every day, no toilet paper though, so we had to buy our own from 7/11. If you have a car it would be better. The beach nearby is not bad, waves were too crazy for swimming so not the best beach for little ones. We had a pleasant stay and thankful to the staff at the restaurant downstairs for helping us check in. You need a Korean phone number to be able to check in, so keep that in mind. Sunrise was beautiful from the balcony.
Chuncheon Pulbitgrim Pension
7.7/52 Reviews
Place is okay and location is okay- requires a taxi from Gapyeong station or bus that comes only every hour, I believe. The room was probably below average standard- not the cleanest and an interesting bedding situation that involved one person sleeping on the living room floor, on top of layered blankets/mats, but as young lads we got on with it! Located near a number of water parks, which is cool! Host is really nice as well- he drove us to Gapyeong station the morning we checked out, for free, which was very kind. Overall, I’d say it’s a good stop for a night when looking to explore Nami island / Gapyeong but not somewhere you’d want to stay for a long time.
