Sokcho hotellia

Plussat: I liked the cleanliness of the hotel and the free parking.

Miinukset: The pools and restaurants were closed due to the coronavirus. This is expected and not their fault, yet the pools and restaurants are advertised on their website as well as at the hotel as being open. There are large beautiful signs about pizza being sold at the hotel, but nowhere do they say that it is only open on Saturday! We were there only during the week, not on the weekend. The room was small with no couch, which was advertised. The balcony had no chair or table.

Plussat: Service, room size, sea view. Hotel breakfast. Close to the beach

Miinukset: I can't recall anything

Plussat: The location closely the sea and the many small restaurants in the vicinity.

Miinukset: Shower was leaking. Stuff didnt speak English.

Plussat: I liked the location.

Miinukset: The parking garage ramps are too narrow.

Plussat: The facility and location were great.

Miinukset: Right now, with the coronavirus pandemic situations, hotels in Seoul are taking every measure to protect the guests by measuring the temperature of each guest and encouraging wearing masks in the public areas in the hotel. I was disappointed and felt uneasy when Lotte wasn't doing that.... At some point, one of the cooks in the buffet restaurant wasn't wearing a mask.

Plussat: Fantastic new hotel in a beautiful location! Plenty of high quality linens. Large 7-11 and reasonable restaurant on site. A/C in every room, stove top, kitchen utensils and plates/cups in room with 6-person table. Beautiful view of the ocean from the room, and the water park was great for the kids. Hotel reps were extremely helpful and courteous.

Miinukset: Can’t really think of anything. A microwave in the room would’ve been nice though.

Plussat: A fantastic new property with all the modern amenities and convenience store, coffee shops, restaurants, etc on site. Beautiful views, easy walk to a nearby town, and beaches within site.

Miinukset: You can’t use their pools unless you pay around $30/day and enter via the on-site water park. Pretty ridiculous not to give guests ANY pool access with their room considering there are pools all over the property.

Plussat: well assorted good breakfast for a family fresh ingredients

Miinukset: coffee needs to be improved

Plussat: good location for visiting and climbing Mt. breakfast is O.K.

Miinukset: The hotel has a classical atmosphere and the furniture is very old. It looked like a ghost was coming out of somewhere. The piano in the lobby plays itself all day as if it were a ghost. It reminds me of the music video, Michael Jackson's Ghost, I used a deluxe ondol. There was no tea table in this room, so I put the newspaper on the floor and drank tea there.

Plussat: Amazing view, great location to start hiking into the park and we loved the happy hour at Abbey’s in the evening

Miinukset: Small bathroom, no good coffee, safe on the floor, and little flexibility in staff/ hours for serving breakfast, dinner etc.

Plussat: The bed looked old, the view from our window was poor but see some part of the mountain

Miinukset: I liked the parking close to the entrance to the national park avoiding pay extra in the public parking area.

Plussat: Awesome location right in the middle of the national park. Short walk to the part entrance and cable car. Friendly, English-speaking staff at the Check-In.

Miinukset: Our room was clean but quite old with plenty of spot repairs in all areas. The mattress was extremely hard and uncomfortable that we decided to sleep on the floor in the end. On the 3rd floor where our room was located and in the restaurant on the 9th it smelled like no window had been opened for ages. In general it seems like no considerable investment had been taken for long time. Could be a great place but must improve to reach international standards.

Plussat: Rooms are old but gorgeous. View excellent. Breakfast okay.

Miinukset: Felt rushed through breakfast.

Miinukset: No food service

Plussat: Staff was very kind

Miinukset: Light control was not comfy, and light was not as bright as I wanted.

Plussat: Location was not bad. Large enough of parking lot.

Miinukset: The entire facilities seemed quite old. When I got off the floor of my room assigned, I could smell musty carpet. I think that it might be good for some people who want to enjoy sunrise in the room in the early morning but, I had mountain view, it’s not really worth to choose this hotel.

Miinukset: No AC for an expensive room

Plussat: Hotel is easy to get to - on the main coast road out of Sokcho. Rooms are spacious though decor is quite dated.

Miinukset: The hotel would benefit from a refurbishment - felt a bit jaded. Didn’t try breakfast as was quite expensive compared to cost of room.

Plussat: It was clean

Miinukset: Breakfast was all Korean style and was written it's based on the R&D!! .... I think they have only asked Korean

Plussat: The Buffet was really good. You could mix your own bibimbap but also eat bread or cornflakes. There were also salat, fruits and dessert. The bathroom Interior was beautiful. You always get a salat and dessert buffet at the 11th floor with your main dish. Was really good.

Miinukset: The location was acceptable. I was at the 10th floor and everytime I closed the windows there was a annoying draught. The light in the room was to glaring and one was broken, but that doesn't matter. The floor/carpet was a bit dirty and dusty. But with slippers it is alright. The shower head was green, not hygienic at all. For dining you can eat at the 11th floor. It is à la card with two vegetarian dishes. Not pretty much.

Plussat: Location was perfect and really liked the room; highly recommend for families or groups.

Miinukset: N/A

Miinukset: Construction by property, loud in the morning.

Plussat: The room size Kitchen 2 bathrooms

Miinukset: No air conditioning Guests should throw away garbage

Plussat: Bed was comfy (especially for korean beds). Kids slept on the “futons” which basically were mats but the kids didn’t mind. Location is right on sokcho beach (only we did not realize swimming doesn’t start until July) so we drove down to Mulchi beach and got in the water. We missed out on the last non seaside room (had to book day of) so the seaside view was a bit pricier but it was fine. There are tables to sit outside for rent and barbecues for rent at reasonable rate. No table tennis right now due to covid. Kitchenette was well stocked. Staff was very nice and helpful (limited English so bring your translation app when you need them) they even lent us an extension cord. Rooms were well cleaned. Close to many restaurants, abai village ferry, and national park. Bonus for EMart 1k away for groceries (check dates before you go second time we’ve tried to go there when it was closed) I’d definitely stay here again.

Miinukset: Towels are tiny! No cooking meat or fish. I get the fish thing but the meat thing threw me off. It did save me from cooking though.

Plussat: Nice breakfast in hotel for the price!

Plussat: Very quiet

Miinukset: Construction on mornings even Sunday wtf!

Plussat: It really convenient and big room size which is good for family.

Miinukset: Bathroom is not separate wet area that make all area wet and not salty for children.

Plussat: Beautiful views, rooms were quite spacious

Miinukset: It’s all pretty old. When we arrived the room was a bit smelly. The beds are quite uncomfortable, very hard and small. The water park is a rip-off. In the beginning of June 60% of the park is closed, including all slides except 1. Still need to pay full price.

Plussat: The room was pretty nice and comfortable and the location of the hotel, although far from the city, is perfect if you want to get away in nature. The view of Mount Seorak is really amazing and the air is super fresh.

Miinukset: The staff is not fluent in English and they tried their best to help but there was definitely some communication issues. Also, the resort is linked to the waterpark next door and we decided to try it out. We paid full price only to realize after that half of the park was closed and nobody told us (not even at the hotel reception when we asked if the waterpark was open) I believe that they should tell you if you can not get the full services you are paying for.

Plussat: Good Extra activities, kids area, kareoke

Miinukset: No daily made service unless requested

Plussat: Facilities, convenience, kids area, water park.

Miinukset: I liked it, but if i just choose, ac unit is in the window room with the bed, so the kitchen and back room ondol room for really stuffy and hot

Miinukset: it not have anything to provide to travel to sul-ak mountain. They told me gio to the Sul-Ak mountain and ask them. they do not have anything brochure about national park informations. They have only their facilities' brochures. The other thing are good. If you want to to visit somewhere you should check and gathering informations in your hand. even though they don't have any road map to go to Sul-Ak Mountains.

Plussat: Water park was awesome, spacious rooms, delicious food within the resort kept the whole family happy.

Plussat: It has kitchen and convenience store in the resort , staff are helpful although having difficulty to communicate in English.

Miinukset: No information are given in English , even when we want to go down to town which is close no one could explain while no information for foreigner . In fact upon check out time , while we explore the place by ourselves, we found out there was local bus with downtown route that stop at the water park which is only walking distance to hotel

Miinukset: blood stains on the inner bed sheet... showed the sheets had not been changed, and my wifes parents in the other room had to have the entire bed linens replaced due to lots of previous guest HAIR. Also, the rooms are auto set to 30Degrees Celcius when no room key has been inserted to activate customer controls... which meant it was between 85-88 Degrees when we entered the room... opening the window cooled things off quickly, thankfully. the facilities were lacking even a sundries store, and we had to drive over a mile just to get sodas and snacks for the room. I had thought ~$100/room/night was a good deal, but now I know that its cheap because of the off season and staff really don't make an effort to take care of the rooms or the customers.

Plussat: it was just ok....not the best. I like that they cater for kids

Miinukset: that they don't clean rooms daily

Plussat: The ocean view breakfast was splendid.

Miinukset: The lamp was broken, the over head lighting was poor. Mirrors, sink, carpet, floors were dirty

Plussat: Location : close to Seorak mountain

Miinukset: Very old - Staying in the hotel made me to feel going back to 1980s Not able to control the room temperature by myself - the control is centralized

Plussat: Good location - close to the sea, close to the mountains.

Miinukset: Staff does not speak English. They tryed to make me pay one more time (I payd during the booking).

Miinukset: very dirty, bad cleaning, hair on the floor and the table, blood on the quilt. Smelly restroom.

Plussat: The host, Yoo, was very welcoming.

Miinukset: The strong smell of the body wash and shampoo

Plussat: -Great location right next to Suboktab bus stop -Main lobby and rooms consistently are sparkling clean and smell wonderful -Mr. Yoo is incredibly helpful by helping you plan out your trip in Sokcho -Amazing value for money -Simple but nice breakfast with toast, cereal, milk and OJ -Free locker usage in the main area to store your luggage before check-in and after check-out -Strong wifi in the lobby and rooms -Rooms have mini fridges which is incredibly nice to have in a hostel -Easy to meet people and make friends

Miinukset: One tiny, itty bitty criticism was the pillows. They were too large and flat for my liking. They make you leave the hostel from 11-3pm for cleaning time, but it's worth it because of how clean the place is ALL the time.

Plussat: I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here! It had everything I was looking for - great communal area which is colorful and cozy. it took me a while to look around the common room enjoying every bit of the decor with a theme of tin tin :) definitely recommend to stay here if you are looking for a homely and quiet place!

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: The location was perfect because it's so close to the intercity bus station. It was a very short walk from it. Also very close to the bus stop to catch the bus to Seoraksan National Park. I loved the service, the hotel called me to check what time I was arriving, and since I was arriving pretty late, he left my key on the counter so I could go to my room. I also loved that the hostel had a water machine because I was able to fill up my bottle of water before going on my hike. I loved the decorations and paintings on the wall. It is a lovely place that feels like home. I would love to come back.

Plussat: Friendly and helpful owner. The place is nice and a basic breakfast is included. Nearby is the bus station, the bus stop for Seoraksan and a GS25 (conv. store).

Plussat: everythlng .... thls place was amazlng decoratlons... food on the mornlng and eevrythlng wss perfectly clean ... l just wanna go agaln already!!

Miinukset: nothlng !

Plussat: Pick up Service from the Bus Station :-)! Everything was great! Thanks a lot

Plussat: the host was super!

Miinukset: We booked the room with a jacuzzi...unfortunately it took 90 minutes to fill, which made it less enjoyable.

Plussat: It was charming very comfortable and clean. It was near all the major site but away from the noise. Breakfast was served everyday in the room and for us it was more than enough. The owner was very helpful and gave us all the information we need it. If you plan a visit around this area I highly recommend it. My kids loved to play with the dogs the owner had around the property.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Perfect location to visit Seorak San. Easy access to Sokcho and its' beaches. Very nice host. Good breakfast. Very clean. Nearby a very nice Italian restaurant. Free parking.

Miinukset: My husband is very tall (almost 2m). Our Queen size bed was a little, little bit to small for both of us. I have to mention that this happens often to us;-) Besides that the bed was very soft and cosy. Additional blanket and pillows were no problem.

Plussat: We got the family suite for our family of 3 adults, 3 young children and 1 baby. The attic was very roomy for our 3 children to sleep together. The b&b is just a short drive away from Seoraksan National Park and have a few restaurants within a short walk away.

Plussat: We loved the quirky room layout (great loft), the jacuzzi tub, the DVD library, the friendly dogs, and the overall great value for the cost. The location is a little hard to find but very well positioned for quickly getting to both the national park and the beach. They gave us recommendations for dining in town that all turned out to be perfect!

Miinukset: We missed the driveway at first because it appears to be marked by the sign advertising different lodging next door. They could not accommodate a late checkout even though it was not busy, due to the fact that their contract cleaning staff can only come at a set time. The breakfast was good but not great.

Plussat: It gave us feel staying at home away from home. The host couple was very friendly. We stayed at the family room which was spacious for 3 people. It was about 10 mins drive to Mt.Seorak and from the place, we were able to watch the sunrise.

Plussat: Host was helpful and friendly. Room was comfortable. Proximity to Seoraksan.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: We loved our room! We had a little kitchenette, living area and balcony. Very comfortable for a couple with a toddler. Breakfast was brought to us every morning but we also had the option to make things for our daughter because the kitchen had all essential utensils and cookware. 10-15 min drive to Naksan beach and about 10 mins to the national park. The owner was so helpful and sweet with any requests we had. Would definitely come back and stay.

Plussat: It’s quiet, nice and relaxing, spacious and comfortable. Host was very helpful, spoke good English. Gave us sushi roll for breakfast when we went out early for our hike. Would have loved to stay another night.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The overall quiet ambiance, clean room and on top of that a kind and thoughtful host.

Miinukset: Nothing as such.

Plussat: Perfect location between beaches and national park, easy to access by car. Nice view to the mountains and even the sea. Spacious appartement for Korean benchmark. Using the Jacuzzi is easy and nice.

Miinukset: none

Plussat: The room was very warm

Miinukset: The bed was too hard. The Jacuzzi was dirty.

Plussat: Quite big TV with DVDs, and many board games are available. The breakfast was good.

Miinukset: The property is wooden so you can hear everything from your room. In addition, you have to wait for 2 hours to fill the spa with water. The water thrust is very weak in spa, but in the shower it is quite strong.

Plussat: The room was really clean and nice. The breakfast was amazing it is not to light that you get fast hungry and not to heavy that you can't climb the mountain. It give you all the Supplements you need to start the day. The owner are really nice persons and help you if they can!

Plussat: The room was very clean and the host super friendly. We used the whirlpool in the room and were very happy with it. The breakfast was delicious, too.

Plussat: It was very clean and it was in a great location for going to Seoraksan mountain. If you don’t have a car, the bus is easy to use and very convenient. Bus stop isn’t too far from accommodation. Hosts are very nice! The bath tub is amazing!

Plussat: Location to the park we were hiking in, friendly owner, ease of check in, home like feel of place

Miinukset: Mattress was very firm for our liking, so sleep was not quality
