Hotels near Seoraksan Cable Car in Sokcho-si

I didn't expect much for old harbor town accommodation, but it was wrong, rather best choice. 오래된 항구도시 호텔이라서 별로 기대 안했는데, 너무 좋았어요 The facilities, building itself, room are sophisticated, simple but clean and tidy. Cool air condtioned every where, in the lobby the cafe was wide and comfy, convenience store is located. 건물이나 시설이 전반적으로 세련되고 심플하지만 깨끗하고 잘 정리되어 있었어요. I booked a half-ocean view, and a little bit worried about the view, 'cause it was 'half' view, but it was needless worry. The view on 19 floor was fantastic. You can overlook the beautiful twin bridge in red and blue, the ocean and the port nearby. And the location was the best, you can visit famous tour site just on foot, the Central market, fish market, Abai soondae town, famous Hamheung naengmyun restaurant, and so on. 특히 위치가 너무 좋아요 속초 중앙시장, 회센터, 아바이 순대타운, 함흥냉면집 등등 걸어서 다 돌아다닐 수 있어서 너무 좋았어요. The only inconvenience was the elevators which need more capacity, they got only 3 lines. Parking lot was enough with 4stories underground. For general I strongly recommend, wanna visit again.

I stayed outthere for one night. The location is perfect for us to take a walk along seaside and gain quick access to seafood restaurants also with 30min driving distance to Shokcho Central Market. Room is clean and they offered room upgrade for free as well. I’m willing to revist there next time.

It was nice and clean, and the location was good. The room was warm and I felt like I was at home. Cons: The restaurant and fitness center were under construction, so there was nothing to do in the hotel. I stayed for 2 nights, but I called because the room wasn't serviced. It was a bit disappointing to hear that the cleaning lady had forgotten our room. Still, I came here in good spirits with my friends after a long time. I think it's a good hotel that I can go to again next time with a group of friends.

This was an accommodation I found in a hurry while on my way to a quick trip with my husband. It had just opened so it was very clean and the sea view was great. The coffee on the 6th floor was very good and the friendliness of the cafe owner was also very very good. I found an accommodation that was very cost-effective. I was so happy. I 100% intend to come back again on my next trip to Sokcho. It was great because it was right in front of Dongmyeong Port! Parking was also very convenient!!

As the title suggests, it was the best resort in the East Coast area, which was the best resort in the East Coast. The resort is now a bit old, and the water park is small, so it is a bit shabby compared to Soccio Hanhua Condon or Dae Myung Ocean World. The only advantage is that there is a private beach, but the water is relatively cold, and it is only a month or two in summer. As a person who visited almost every year, every season, 5 or 6 years ago, I wonder how we will improve in the future ...

The location was great as it was close to Sokcho Beach. The room was clean and didn't smell like cigarettes, which was even better. However, the water pressure is weak and when I turn the water towards warm water, no water comes out at all. I contacted the front desk and had it repaired. Other than the inconvenience, everything was good.

It's my second visit, and I've been traveling well this time. The boss is so kind, and first of all, all the rooms have a sunrise view!! And towels, toothbrushes, toothpaste, body sponge, body wash, shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer, and bioderma lotion are provided in each room, and ironing machines are shared in front of the elevator in the lobby on the first floor. There is also a rooftop that can be used until 9:00, and guests can buy and eat outside food. There is also breakfast served from 8:30 to 10:00 in the cafe on the first floor, and most importantly, the lobby door on the first floor after 9:00. It's locked, so you can open it with your room key and come in! Room 605 thought that the blinds on the big windows were broken, but I gave up.

Most of them are hotels where locals stay. The beds are very comfortable and the space is large. However, the staff at the counter do not speak English and it is a little difficult to communicate. The facilities seem to have a spa but I have not experienced it. The parking is outdoors which is very convenient. The red wine and cheese are also very good. It’s delicious, but there may be less light nearby because it’s on the beach. The sea view from the room is pretty good. I’ll stay here again next time

Great location with many seafood restaurants nearby and also a couple of nice cafes to chill with a good view. It’s better to take a taxi when coming from the bus terminal with luggages. There are buses that take to the downtown area as well. Room is clean and convenient with its amenities plus there is a washer and dryer in the room. Check in was easy with instructions although there is a need to follow the 4pm check in time and 11am check out time. No daily housekeeping unless stay is 3 nights or more. Overall it was a great stay! Well-recommended.

Why I chose this hotel at Sokcho : The sea view from rooms The wide range of room options The Lotte hotel chain I already know The amenities and services on site. We (2 people) booked a superior suite with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and an incredible view on the sea. It’s the perfect place to stay to recover from a very nasty jet lag. We slept very well, enjoying each of us our own bed and room. Maybe it was the best view I ever had lying on my bed. The hotel is huge and comes with many amenities, which are well described on the website. In October the water park is closed and the hotel is pretty quiet, which is exactly what I was expecting. I personally would not come here during busy Summer holidays. The staff is very friendly and speaks enough English for helping you to book a taxi. I was happy to be told that they don’t charge any longer a deposit on your credit card, which takes then weeks to be cleared out. Instead they charge the total amount due for your stay at check-in, which I find more convenient. From the hotel (located on a hill), you can walk (along the sea) either on the left to the long sand beach, or to the right to the port, where you will find many seafood restaurants. We ate one evening at one of the hotel restaurants (Natural Soul Kitchen). The food was delicious, refreshing and healthy. To reach the hotel, we took the bus from Seoul Express Bus Terminal (Gyeonbu Yeongdong Line, next to Gangnam area). It takes around 2.5 hours. The bus departing from this terminal arrives at Sokcho EXPRESS Bus Terminal, which is close to Sokcho beach and closer to the Lotte resort. Be aware that there are 2 bus terminals in Seoul from where you can reach Sokcho. At Sokcho, there is another bus terminal further north (Sokcho INTERCITY Bus Terminal). Make sure that you depart from the same terminal where you arrived if you have return tickets. We didn’t manage to buy the bus tickets online. Apparently you need a credit card issued in SKorea to be able to process the payment. So we had to go directly to the bus terminal to buy our tickets. If you want premium seats buy them several days in advance. Even if your main interest is hiking in Seoraksan National Park, I think this hotel is the perfect « base camp », as in the morning you will wake up with this beautiful sea view and at night you will fall asleep with the sound of lapping waves. I will come back for sure. The hotel, the sea, the mountains,... I didn't expect to feel so well and so energized there.
