Hotels With Pools in Gangwon State, South Korea

The hotel was superb, right on the beach and had spectacular views. The rooms were excellent with great facilities. The iPad in the room giving you up to date information was very useful. The staff were friendly and helpful. There were plenty of restaurant choices in the hotel. The evening buffet on the top floor was expensive so we didn’t eat there. 108,000 won per person. There were cheaper alternatives in the lobby. Unfortunately, you had to pay extra to use the infinity pool and gym so we didn’t do this. 35,000 won to use a pool seemed unfair and should be built into the price of the room. I would highly recommend anyone to stay there.

I was worried because of the poor reviews when it first opened, but it was so comfortable and nice. It's a residence, not a hotel, so the tables are large and comfortable, which was nice because I could eat comfortably in my room. However, the rubber on the toilet stall door came off, so I replaced it, but I think they'll need to do some repair work to make sure it doesn't come off.

Good choice. It was so clean and nice. It's the best. I definitely plan to visit again on my next trip. I think it would be best to visit with family.

Good: Very spacious room with great view and a balcony! Bathroom had a rain shower. Walkable to Yeonggeumjeong Pavilion which has great night view. Bus opposite hotel goes directly to Seoraksan. Walking distance to Intercity Bus Terminal. Bad: 1. Front desk. I asked about the swimming pool when it was before 9PM. Official closing time was 10PM and last entry was 9:30PM. Front desk staff told me the swimming pool entry has closed for the day even though it's not 9PM yet. 2. Only had housekeeping once even though I stayed for 4 nights. This was not explained during check in.

The elevator was uncomfortably hot because the air conditioning wasn't working, and it felt especially cramped when it was full. This definitely needs improvement. However, the facilities were excellent and very comfortable, and the overall layout was well-designed. What's more, unlike the heated pool in Sokcho which had an unpleasant odor, Samcheok's was perfectly clean and odorless. I'd definitely love to go back.

The location is so good that I visit often~~^^ Even though it's old, I visit often because I like the beach walk. I recommend the hotel because it's cleaner than the resort. I especially recommend the ocean view even if it costs a little more. It's worth it~~^^ I was in room 515, and the plaza was visible, and the bathroom was relatively clean.

The design is a quite old bur overall is a cosy stay. Nice view form slope view balcony. Great amenities from korean brand. Love the body lotion. Some hotel staff can’t commute well in English. There is a sticker on the bathroom wall from the day we checked in and it still there till we check out 3 days later.

Hotel is clean and fun. Our family enjoy much. They have treasure hut and uncountable lego blocks in the room. My girl loves this hotel the most in the whole Seoul trip. My girl enjoyed the little game in room, the swimming pool, a small warm pool, indoor children playground very very much! For car parking, we followed the naver map arrive the hotel. When we got there, they didnt allow us to park in front of the hotel, and we need to drive back to their specific parking area, and took shuttle bus back to the hotel again. This action wasted us an hour to go and back, and even waited around 30mins for check in. If they allow us to put down the luggage and do check-in first, and park the car later, that would be much better. It is sad for the 1st impression. And I found the locals would ask the staff to park their car for them to the specific car park. How come this could not be the same to foreign guests? One more is not good about the dinner buffet. This was paid, W90000. When we got there after swim, around 8-8:30pm, the food left not much.But they close at 9:30pm. They refill slowly slowly.

We booked the room for early Dec just before the ski open (off peak), some of the room was still doing some upgrading. It was a Queen bed with a bulk bed room and only realised it only 150cm in length. The bathroom include bathtub as well. Booking come w 2 free breakfast/day and the 3rd pax need to pay adult price 44,000 KRW. Not very ideal. Holiday inn should have discounted guest rate for breakfast. The ski open on 4Dec. Hotel no other facilities. Shuttle bus only 2 timing slot to train station.

This hotel recently opened, so the facilities are super clean, and I especially loved the ocean view from the room. However, the breakfast system is split into two shifts, and it gets really crowded in one particular area. So, make sure to check in early and book your breakfast as soon as possible!
