Seamarq Hotel
4.8/538 Reviews

Seamarq Hotel

Gangneung-si|6.18km from city center
Seeking to spend a few days on the Korean Seaside, we booked on short notice 2 nights in an Oceanview Double at Seamarq. Overall, we had a wonderful, very relaxing time: we particularly enjoyed - the spacious, beautifully designed and functional room and lobby area, which truly provides a sense of space and an extension of the hotel space into the sea - the absolutely stunning 5th floor pools area, which was never really crowded and also stayed open despite some minor rain on our first day: comfortable sunbeds, generous opening hours (06:30 - 22:00, great) and good service by the mostly very young crew up here - the nice ocean side loungers, even though we still find it awkward that there is (at least officially) a 1.5 hour limitation to the use of the sunbeds (though at least during our stay this did not seem to have been enforced) - the piano player who brought a serene, peaceful atmostphere to the lobby every night, and the Lobby Bar with an excellent drinks, tea and small food selection - the thought-through room design, incl. the practical wet clothes hanger with clips to secure any item, and the Nespresso machine, tea pot etc. - the overall good selection and tastiness of the food at breakfast and at the buffet dinner (which we only joined once) To be among the very best hotels, Seamarq needs to fix a few things - the setup and food presentation of the breakfast / dining room is more reminding of a low-end, family vacation style: relatively crammed seating, presentation of the food buffet is without love (though the have a great choice - it's more how it's presented), and erratic service (e.g. on first morning nobody cleared used dishes from our breakfast table, while today this was done promptly every time...). - while there is a wonderful beach with the hotel's sun loungers, there are no beach towels available: this is the first time ever around the world we experienced this. Why not provide the same service as at the pool (where those are freely available)? - as others wrote, the elevator availability and waiting time is a real issue - with only 3 elevators that are also partly used by staff to deliver luggage wait times are often excessive. All these were not significantly spoiling our experience, and we would definitely be back here if staying in the area - though it would be easy for the hotel to improve on some of the items above. Overall a wonderful place to stay if in Gangneug, and wanting to be at (or better above :-) ) the sea

Hi Ocean Gyeongpo
4.4/5167 Reviews

Hi Ocean Gyeongpo

Gangneung-si|6.26km from city center
I went on a family trip with four people, including two kids and my wife. The hotel is right next to Gyeongpo Lake. It's close to the sea, great for walking around the lake, and the location is great. Perhaps because the facility is a new building, the room still smells like you would when you moved into a new house. And although I expected it, the room was narrower than it showed in the picture. However, considering the size of a typical hotel room, It's a duplex, so it's wide open, so it's less stuffy or stuff like that. However, the slope of the railing going up to the duplex is a bit high. It can be dangerous to go with very young children. At least a duplex unless your child is in elementary school or older. I would not recommend it if children are concerned about falling. The reason I gave the facility 3 out of 5 is because the railing height is too high and This is because the size of the indoor parking lot is too small. Of course, I was informed that I could use a public parking lot nearby. I parked there, but I have to endure some inconvenience. Other than this, the location and facilities are very good. The rooftop view is especially nice. I think it would have been nice if there was a cafe here so you could have a quick coffee or something. I received friendly guidance when checking in. The service is not directly related to the staff and service. I'm not sure if it's very good or bad. At the level of just going for a trip and sleeping, not a hotel stay. If you're looking for a clean hotel, it doesn't seem like a bad choice.

Chonpines Ocean Suites
4.4/5116 Reviews

Chonpines Ocean Suites

Gangneung-si|9.43km from city center
Advantages 1. The ocean view is amazing 2. It was nice that there were many towels 3. There were three rooms, so one person slept in each room. 4. It felt like a small apartment and was comfortable (I was seriously considering a long-term stay) 5. Since it was a series of nights, I came in midway after finishing my schedule and wanted to rest for a while, but it was nice that the mess that had been made in the morning was neatly organized. 6. I really like the wooden floor. 7. The refrigerator is very cool (I put a not-so-cold beer in it, and less than 30 minutes have passed, and the beer is very cold) 8. Because it is a double curtain, you can sleep with only the curtain you want (the floor is high, so you don’t have to have a blackout curtain) 9. There was a balcony, so I brought a chair to the balcony to watch the sunrise (very good). disadvantage 1. The towel smells like bleach (it goes away after a while) 2. It seems like the sink and bathtub were not cleaned well (it was rough, so I scrubbed it with my hand and the dirt came out). 3. Elevator... Too late ㅠㅠㅠㅠ It's on the 27th floor, so it takes a long time to wait. 4. The parking lot is at the back, but the ledge at the entrance is a little high and low, so you have to exit slowly. 5. There is not enough parking space compared to the number of rooms. conclusion, I am willing to visit again, but it would be great if the bathtub and sink were cleaned and the towels were cleaned... if only the bleach smell would go away.

Izmir Pension
4.7/513 Reviews
The most satisfying place I traveled on this trip was Izmir Pension.  It was quiet and the view was so good that it was good to rest. It was so good to eat marshmallows 👍 The boss who was very careful and caring for the barbecue was the best ^^

Skybay Hotel Gyeongpo
4.4/5453 Reviews
overall experience was decent, the location is the best part about this hotel. it was fairly crowded even on a weekday. the check in process was fine and the room quality overall was decent. the room and bathroom felt like it could need a deep cleaning. there is a infinity pool on the 20th floor and it was worthwhile, but they charge you an extra fee of ₩30,000 (masks mandatory). the breakfast buffet was a little disappointing, the majority of the food felt like it was low grade, and service was menial. the most disappointing part was the late night snack i chose to order from the BHC chicken place on the first floor. its crispy but there was literally so little meat, i was just eating the fried skin.. maybe because i went near closing time they gave me a bad batch, but overall super disappointing for the over marked price. there is also a small convenience store that stay open till 12am.
