Hotels With Bar in Gangwon State, South Korea

We booked two rooms and the front desk gave us a corner sea-view room. The layout was a bit different and very spacious, and the view was absolutely stunning. The hotel is located on Gyeongpo Beach, which is the most beautiful beach in Gangneung. There's an infinity pool on the rooftop with ocean views, and you can find the famous Chodang soft tofu nearby. It's also not far from Anmok Coffee Street. You can take a taxi to Jumunjin to see the Goblin filming location and the BTS bus stop. Right across from the Goblin spot is a famous soft tofu ice cream shop with beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the sea. Overall, Gangneung doesn't feel that big, and it's quite convenient to get to the attractions by taxi.

The room was spacious and clean, but the hotel seemed old. Bottom of the bathroom sink was open, and it was dirty things were visible, which was very upsetting. The towels were also yellowed and had been used for a long time, so they were still yellow even after washing.

When I go to visit my son's military, I can go out for 2 days and 1 night, so I booked a family room, but there is no space to move except for a double bed for 4 people to sleep in. The space is like putting 2 double beds in a 2-person motel. You can use the gym as a facility for a fee, but the cleaning is not only on the counter, but also on the equipment, so dust is no joke. I thought I could die from working out. There is no one to manage it, and I made a claim to the hotel, saying that they outsource it to an outside company and that they do not manage it. Don't go to the gym.

The Sokcho Cassia Hotel, which we visited for our wedding anniversary trip, was located in Daepo Port, and we could see both the port and the sea from the veranda of the accommodation. It was on the 25th floor, and when we went in, there was a slight musty smell from the bathroom shower room, so we took off one star for cleanliness! The breakfast here was 66,000 won, which was expensive compared to other accommodations, so we had high expectations, but there weren't many options for the price. Weekends are divided into three parts, and you can choose on a first-come, first-served basis when you check in. I think the checkout time was 11:00, but we checked out right after 8:00 after the first part of the breakfast to avoid traffic.

Wow! It felt like time travel back to the last century in the UK, the moment you step into the hotel lobby, which is full of nostalgic British decorations. The restaurant, especially, is like a royal family gallery with photos of Queen Elizabeth, Princess Diana, Prince Charles, Prince William, and other royals covering the walls. Each floor features a unique theme dedicated to various public figures, including presidents, diplomats, sports stars, movie stars, singers, and actors. The hallways are decorated with photos and memorabilia, making every walk a discovery. The location is very close to the entrance of Seorak Mountain National Park, within a 7-10 minute walk. My double bedroom is lovely with a nice view of greenery. The only downside and a major issue to me is that no AC at night, which is not mentioned in the hotel’s description. The staff explained that the AC is centrally controlled and is turned off at night because they assume it’s cool enough. They can only give me a fan. I had both dinner and buffet breakfast at the hotel, and they were all good, and all the staff at the front desk and in the restaurant were very nice and friendly as well.

This hotel is located right by a bus stop. Plenty of restaurants were nearby. Breakfast was very good. The staffs were very kind and helpful. Room was very clean!

It was very lovely designed room. The pink room was looking almost same in picture and the room temperature was very warm from the enterance. The room was clean overall but there was a cockroach appeared during our stay. The amenities was reasonable and not a bad quality. The breakfast was better than our expectation and reasonable price too. Big recommend:)

Extremely comfortable! The environment, cleanliness, and service are all top-notch. It's spacious, new, and luxurious. The room's balcony offers a direct, incredible ocean view – waking up to the blue sea instantly lifts your mood. The room is large, the bathroom is large, and the bed is extra-large; it's my first time sleeping on such a big bed, easily big enough for three people. The gym has a full range of equipment. The hotel's heating is excellent and comfortable, so you never feel cold. Thanks to this hotel, I had a particularly comfortable two-night stay during my Gangneung vacation. I hope they continue to maintain this standard, and I'll definitely come back if I get the chance!

It's quite a distance, so if you're coming on your own, you'll need to take a taxi. It costs about 25,000 won each way. The breakfast spread is huge, but there are no restaurants around the hotel at night, only within the resort itself. There isn't even a casual spot to grab a drink.

Nice clean hotel across from a nice beach for surfing. I was initially disappointed to find the hotel was across a very busy road from the beach, but the hotel itself is quiet and the rooftop in the morning was a great way to take in the sunset. I might not book here again because of the busy road but the hotel is nice.
