Hostels in Gangwon State, South Korea

"This place is a perfect place for those who want to stay close to the big beaches, but not on the big beach itself^^ The area is super quiet and the beach is a little bit deserted, but it only takes 10 minutes to walk to the central beach with all all the facilities. The owners met us with the drip coffee bags with a password, we didn’t really see them all this time, which is perfect for introverts too 🙌 We especially enjoyed our breakfasts outside at the terrace, and the food was exceptional, thank you so much for preparing those kimpabs and hot sandwiches 💛 They also had towels and you could use as many as you wanted (one towel per day I guess?) The only thing that was disappointing was the absence of the elevator (we had to carry our suitcases to the 4th floor), but it was the only inconvenience, so it did not really ruin the whole experience!! 🙌🥹👌 There weren’t that many people living on our floor, so it was not that noisy (maybe take some earplugs for the night tho?)"

"It was a very clean and comfortable hostel !! The bed was really comfortable, the bathroom was clean, the water pressure and amenities were all good! Seafi Beach is within walking distance and the population beach is not far from the taxi, so it was quiet and nice to play"

"Hotel location is very good and convenient to travel. The room has a wide view and the floor-to-ceiling windows can see the night view of the city. Sanitation is clean, the bedding is comfortable, and the quality of sleep is good. The service staff is friendly and responds promptly to needs. Minibar provides free drinks and snacks, which is very intimate. A small gift was also given when checking out. The overall stay experience is satisfactory, I will choose this one next time."

"We had a great time in Gangneung and the living conditions were very clean and tidy. I also learned that the Gangneung Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea usually lasts for seven days. From the first to the second day of May, there will be some performances and temple fairs, such as the Slave Masquerade and the Namdaecheon Temple Fair. The most grand event in the third grade of junior high school is the street game activity of transporting sacred trees from the city to Nandachuan. It is called the Shentong Daji Street Game. It is to welcome the mountain god, the city god of the state and the female city god of the state. This year's event is on June 8 Starting at seven o'clock in the evening, many tourists will come from all over the country to watch. After the sacred tree was delivered, starting from the fourth day of May, the main rituals were held, which were divided into the morning drink offering and the Dragon Boat Festival sacrifice. During the sacrifice, the food on the table, such as the Dragon Boat Festival wine and rice cakes, would be distributed to the tourists. Folks felt that You will learn better if you eat it, haha. Finally, at the end of the seventh day of the fifth ***** month, there will be offerings and burning offerings to the gods. The paper lanterns and paper flowers used for sacrifices in the past few days will be burned, and then prayers for a good harvest will be over."

"The homestay run by my aunt alone has received guests from many places, but because it is off-season, there are only one other guest and I. During the two days in Gangneung, I went to Jeongdongjin to watch the sunrise, but it was a pity that I couldn’t see it because of the fog."

"The location is a bit remote, but this price point chooses a family apartment that is more cost effective and prefers a small attic. The owner is very kind and welcoming. Unfortunately, the day is a holiday, there is no shop in Chuncheon. There are very few people on the street. Go there to avoid the festival."
