Amazing hotel. The room has everything you need. The sea is nearby 😍 and there's a beautiful lake on the other side. There's a bus stop behind the hotel, easy to get to from the train station.
There are lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. There's a 7/11.
Thank you for your hospitality 🥰
No tea bags or coffee sachets provided, which is a bit weird. Water pressure for shower is way too weak. No room cleaning services, leaving alone having your new towels put outside your room in the morning. Only 4 lifts serving way too many hotel stayers, resulting in long waiting lines and thus, time. Views are magnificient however. The room is so massive and the balconies are spacious.
First off, the location right in front of Gyeongpo Beach gets a thumbs up.
There are many restaurants nearby, and a 7-Eleven and CU are within a 5-minute walk.
I don't regret choosing the Ocean View Standard room.
The view is amazing.
The water pressure is sufficient, there are many OTT devices available, and you can control the air conditioner and lights with a single remote.
The amenities are plentiful, too.
The hygiene is also excellent.
I will definitely choose this place again if I visit Gangneung next time.
Overall, I'm very satisfied with the hotel. On the first day, I booked a 1.8m king-size bed room, but I was given a room with a 1.5m bed. However, after speaking with them, they upgraded me to a two-bed room for the second day. The room was very spacious, and I particularly liked having a separate entryway. They provided all the necessary disposable toiletries, and even the toilet paper was a good brand. There's a coffee machine on the first floor, so you can grab a coffee anytime. The front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful.
The room is as the photo shown. Location is right next to the beach and is walking distance to the bus station. Hotel have a team helpful receptionist who tried to help us to make a few call during our checkout!
The location was great because it was right in front of Gyeongpodae. The picture is the night sea where the number of rooms was taken. They said it was cold, so they turned on more heating. The people who guided me to the counter were so friendly and the room was in excellent condition.
We love this hotel’s vibes! The nice smell and homely feel won us over the moment we stepped in. The owner is extremely kind and upgraded our standard twin room to a double queen room on a higher floor which gives us a nice ocean view. Location is great and a 10-min walk to market and 15 min walk to Abai village. Owner’s sincere hospitality and helpful personality is commendable. Highly recommend this hotel!
The accommodation was clean and the parking lot was spacious, which was nice. The bed was so comfortable, I think it was latex, and I slept like a log. The floor was low, so I could hear some traffic noise even with the windows closed, but I slept soundly and it was fine. The breakfast was also good. I would definitely stay here again.
Very Good

JjohanI love this hotel so much, for the price I'm getting and location, the amenities oh my I love everything about this hotel, it also has lounge which is accessible day time that gives you free flow bread, kimchi's, drinks and ramen, and gangneung is so good, not touristy yet a very underrated town with seas and beach
__TS***xoGreat location:
5min walk from gangneung ktx station, eateries nearby, a convenience store right at the corner, walking distance or take bus to the central market. Central area but quiet neighbourhood.
Comfy environment:
Hotel is very neat and clean, looks very new and smell nice once you step in entrance. Self-check-in.
P.S. i only found out after check-out that guests may choose the aroma oil at the lobby n bring it to room :] nice Flow-er experience 🌺😌
Nice amenities:
Reserved the spa n movie room while the room is equipped with projector n soundbar, n you get to control different lighting setup with tv remote control, pretty cool! Good time watching some kdrama n hot bath after long journey to spend the night. Love the fact that shower water is strong n hot enough which is very essential for me.
One downside is that the light of the ac and wifi router keep flashing at night and may affect if you are a light sleeper… everything else is great. I love how they have usb-a ports n also wireless charging!
You can also borrow extra amenities like charging cable n hair straightener at each floor locker cabinet.
Luggage Storage
Available after check-in/after check-out at each floor or lobby behind the water/coffee/refreshment section.
Overall, highly recommend with such price👍🏿
GGuest UserThe owner was super kind and friendly! We came in to drop our bags, and they allowed us to check in wayy earlier than we were supposed to. For the price that I paid, I am VERY impressed with the room facilities. It was spacious, there were water dispensers and microwave on every level. The Microwave needs a bit of cleaning though. But my room and toilet was SUPER clean. I wished that they prepared normal sized towel, because we were only provided with a 'face towel'. But that's not a big issue. Location was okay, maybe 5-10 minutes walk (depending on the zebra crossings) to the nearest bus stop/metro. After checking out, owner also allowed us to leave out bags in her house (ground floor of the motel). She was very friendly. She can speak Korean and Chinese (Not English, but you can use Papago). Motel's location is also very near to a few cafes, a GS25, and restaurants. So it was very easy to have breakfast or dinner. Also walking distance to shopping area (Myeongdong-gil). That area also had MANY photobooth spots, a big Olive young. Conclusion: location was amazing!
BBokkie TruongA pleasant place for a short stay. It's a bit ”out of the central area” but a 30 minute walk to the station. Rooms have a small kitchette but lacking basic crockery etc. A convenience store next door is useful.
Our room was on 11th floor so away from street noice and with lovely sunset views over the city and mountains
AAnonymous UserTo be honest.. all's good. Just 2 mini grumbles..
1. I suppose because they do generally allow their guests to smoke in the room, i can still smell the tabacco lingering. Not the best smell through the nights there.
2. No lifts. Thankfully my luggage is not heavy this round so its still manageable else i could foresee an issue lugging it up and down the stairs.
Now.. the pros..!
1. It is very clean. Bathroom attached which its great.
2. Room size is okie for 2. Has tv, wifi, lots of plugs.. facial care as well actually.. and a rather nice-smelling diffuser.
Spacious even, to put 1 luggage. Theres a heater and aircon unit ( of cuz not needed in this winter season)
3. Bathroom is spacious. There's towels provided. Shampoo, bodywash and toothpaste even! Abundant hot water.
4. A stone throw away from the bus terminal. Less than 5mins walk. Loads of eateries, cafes and even a diaso. Oh and the market.
5. Small town.. so everywhere's walkable. Quiet, slow-paced town. Awesome to chill here.
Ssunbeam98It is in a great location, literally in front of the beach.
There is a self check-in available at the front desk, but for some reason it didn’t work so ended up talking to the reception staff anyway, which is okay.
While the main features of the room were clean (bedding, bathroom…), the air con unit was completely black with mould inside. Unfortunately I have some mould allergies, and so I had some reactions overnight.
The room also had some strange marks on the wall.. I think that the quality of the room looks better in the photos than the reality…
While I did book this place a little bit last minute (a few weeks in advance, but during peak time), it was overpriced for what it was (150,000₩ per night with a coupon).
It’s certainly not the worst place in the world, but I probably wouldn’t stay again if I had to choose.
GGuest UserLocation was about a 10minutes bus ride away from gangneung station and the bus terminal, but note that the hotel was a 5 minutes walk away from the bus stop. It's also about a 7 minutes walk to the market so there's plenty of food options.
Room was pretty clean apart from some dust at the seating area around the curtains. As the room is filled with big windows and my room is opposite a mall, it gets pretty hot and no privacy so the curtains have to be closed most of the time so that's a pity.
Service was good and they allowed me to check in early when I reached at 1230pm. Hotel feels safe and secure as the lift needed key access.
Amenities was great as there was toothbrush, conditioner, lotion, scrub, bathrobe, room slippers.
GGuest UserI have stayed here before to hike Seoraksan. This time, I had a nicer room; however, because it is near the mountains and older, there was a huge house centipede on the ceiling when I got there. Luckily, the bug spray they had worked on it. Other than that, there were some small stains on the bedding, but everything else was clean. The bed was comfortable, and the location is about 55 minutes walking distance from Seoraksan National Park. It's only about an 8 minute taxi drive there if not too much traffic. There is a beautiful river/stream nearby. This place is also only about a 16 minute drive from the Sokcho Express Bus Terminal. Obviously, I like this place enough to stay again. Breakfast was toast, cereal, and you could make eggs/a toast sandwich I believe.
MMichelle.SHThe boss was really kind and introduced a lot of interesting attractions and pretty cafes to visit in Chuncheon 🥰
The rooms were very spacious and the beds were big and warm so I could stay comfortable.
The location is also very convenient, both the bus and the subway are very convenient, and the high-speed bus station back to Seoul is about 12 minutes' walk, so it's easy to move even if you have luggage.
Although there are many dormitories around, I think the warm consideration and kindness of the boss is the biggest advantage of this dormitory. The cost performance is also better than other hotels
It's a good choice to stay for a few days, and this time I stayed for 6 nights and felt it was really the best choice!
Next time I come to Chuncheon, I definitely want to stay here again 😀
