A lounge with a grand yet cute charm☕️

Lounge with beautiful slopes 🥂 ⠀ 👀 Holiday Inn Resort Hotel Pyeongchang? IHG (InterContinental Hotel Group) divided hotel categories into 4 categories. Luxury & Lifestyle / Premium / Suite / Essential. Holiday Inn is in the Essential category. It seems to be the standard for hotels. A hotel brand that is faithful to the basics, neither too little nor too much. However, this Pyeongchang Holiday Inn is even more special. It is the only 5-star Holiday Inn in the country. (Songdo and Gwangju are 4-star) ⠀ 👉 A simple rest area to enjoy without pressure If you have high expectations because it is 5-star, you may be a little disappointed. It does not feel fancy. The lounge feels like a simple rest area where you can stop by for a while. Usually, when you visit a 4-star hotel lounge, it often plays a secondary role rather than putting effort into the operation of the business. It feels exactly like that here. There is no separate staff member on duty, so if you go to the front desk and say you want to use it, the staff member will come. As soon as you say it, they come to guide you right away. ⠀ 👉 A special difference from regular cafes Many hotel lobbies have high ceilings. The lounges in such lobbies usually have high ceilings, giving them a sense of openness. The lobby of Holiday Inn Pyeongchang also has high ceilings. Unlike the cool and grand feeling, the seats are decorated in a cute and lovely way. It feels somehow different but also goes well together. It feels like you can even feel a subtle luxury. Another point is the window. If you visit during the winter ski season, you can enjoy a cup of tea while looking at the slopes covered in pure white snow, which brings happiness. ⠀ The price is not a big burden in this specialness. Of course, it is more expensive than regular cafes. However, if you use your purchasing strategy wisely, you can use it more reasonably. First of all, the bread is not expensive. If you purchase bread for more than 13,000 won, you get a free cup of Americano. If I had known this earlier, I would have bought it like this, but it was a little disappointing. 📍Edelweiss Lounge (Holiday Inn Pyeongchang 1st floor) 🕰 10AM ~ 7PM 🪑 Approximately 36 seats #Ho-kang-seu
