Hotels near Samyang Ranch, Pyeongchang-gun

If you’re someone who wants to escape the busy city life and experience real home-cooked Korean food, this is the perfect place for you. Staying here feels like visiting a Korean family home rather than just booking an accommodation. The owner is incredibly kind, polite, and warm. They treated us like their own kids, always making sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. You can truly feel their sincerity. The house is so peaceful and perfect for a family day gathering. There are so many facilities provided, honestly, just name it! Everything you need is already there. The owner also made our trip so much easier in so many ways, and I’m genuinely so thankful for that.To all Malaysians and anyone from other countries — please, please come and stay at this house! I would give it 100/10 without hesitation. 🤍

The place is good, 7 minutes to ski and has a supermarket and eatery place nearby. Honestly the room is nice, with cooking facilities but the owner was not friendly at all. The toilet was stuck and leak they came with only the plunger and ask us settle ourself. Is winter and we came with kids, the kids built a snowman and they destroyed the snowman after we went for ski trip. We are a group of 10 and we wanted to cook our dinner. There is a small hut with table and chair and BBQ facilities, we ask to BBQ facilities (We are willing to pay, 10,000 won as stated) but she said is winter so we can’t use the BBQ pit, ended up we use the stove to cook up the meat. The husband and wife came in to the huts and told us we can’t do BBQ but we explained to her we just cook the meat and we didn’t do any BBQ. We left the place with cleaner than we came in. I have to WhatsApp her and show her the place is cleaned. The warn us that we must left the place by 1am but in fact all of us finished eh 9.30pm every day since we are tired from Ski. During the last day, they came to us and I was thinking they come and say goodbye but they just make sure we throw every single piece of rubbish outside the house. My husband wear shoe and just step to take our luggage and the owner insist us to take out the shoe before we went in to the house. Although we have explained, we just step in and take the luggage and go, he insisted us to take out the shoes. I have been travelling all around the world and we do understand every cultural is different but as the operator of tourist industry, the owner has to be service minded. If you can’t accept any international travellers then please do not list your place in any platform or put up a notice that international tourist is not permitted to stay there and we won’t book accordingly. Is such a shame to see this happened to us after our 5th trip to Korea and our 3rd trip to Pyeongchang for ski.

This resort is great! It's not crowded at all, even on the slopes, so we had a truly relaxing vacation. Getting to the ski resort was super easy and convenient. We were lucky enough to catch the tail end of the spring snow, which made my child incredibly happy. The breakfast spread was excellent, and they even had good quality packaged juices and yogurts. It's really an ideal spot for beginner skiers to settle in.

The overall service met our expectations. For beginner skiers like us, this ski resort is more than adequate. There hasn't been any recent snowfall, so all the snow on the slopes is man-made. The hotel room was spacious, a family-style layout with a large bed and a small bed, perfect for a family trip.

The hotel was clean, but I found it a bit inconvenient that there wasn't a water dispenser in the lobby or hallway. The electric kettle in the room seemed old or poorly maintained, as it had some white residue inside, making it unhygienic. I had to go all the way to the main building's Blue Wing just to find a water dispenser, which was quite a hassle.

I really loved how clean the room was, and the ample parking space made everything so convenient. What surprised me most was having a water dispenser and even a coffee machine right in the room! 👍🏻 I definitely want to come back to Hotel Around! The view is great, and the price is fantastic too!

Nice ondoh apartment - heated flooring in living n bedroom - spacious and warm! But surprised they only supply hand towels and no bath towels so need to pay for it. They should provide bathroom mat or rug as the tiled floor is cold in winter! Nevertheless we still enjoyed the room and were able to watch Netfix at night. Many restaurants and CU convenient stores around the ski resort so lots of food options! The disappointment was the water park nearby because of the layout, lack of bathing amenities and rest areas despite costing more than krw35k per pax!! Frequent onsen patrons can skip this, but then nothing much to do around the resort other than skiing, so well...unless u grab a taxi to go to the mountains for sightseeing if weather permits...

Nice place to stay. Very close to Mona Yongpyong Ski Resort. Nice view. Ample parking space. Spacious Room. Ondol room can fit 6 people. Kitchenette provided for cooking. There was an issue with our toilet where the toilet bowl is clogged. When we contact the front desk, they promptly send a staff to fix the toilet. Everything is perfect and we enjoy our stay at Tower Condominium.

I was a bit disappointed by the limited number of convenience facilities and restaurants within the resort. There are a few more dining options if you drive out, but the parking is so cramped that I hesitated to move my car. The parking, which is limited to ground level and one underground floor, is incredibly difficult to navigate. Especially during check-in hours (3-4 PM), it's a parking war due to guests using the ski & board and water park for the day. A plus point, though, is the mobile check-in option, which helps avoid long waits to get your room number. Also, if you're using a stroller, be aware that when moving to the basement, the stroller path suddenly turns into stairs. So, for convenience, always use the outdoor path on the first floor. If you're going to the kids' lounge with a stroller, go towards Lotteria instead of Baskin-Robbins; it's right on the second floor. (The building itself has no elevator, only stairs.) This was my first time staying in the Green Wing condo, and the iron door closing, soundproofing, and people constantly smoking on the terrace (the smell kept coming in and was really annoying!) made me decide to avoid the Green and Orange Wings from now on.

I made a night trip to Gangwon Province, so I made a reservation in a hurry and entered late in the evening and couldn't stop by in detail. The entrance was dark on the night road, so it was a bit hesitant. The counter staff kindly responded. The room was clean and warm and I went to sleep well. There is no convenience store in the hostel, so you have to buy it in advance at a convenience store 5-10 minutes drive away.
