Hotel berhampiran Soisan Observatory, Cheorwon-gun

따뜻하고 조용했어요

친절하시고 깨끗한 가정적인 분위기 였읍니다. 아쉬웠던건 오래된 건물 이어서 인지 윗층바닥이 삐걱거렸으며 모든싱글 창틀에서 외풍이 심했읍니다 6명이 입실하는데 화장실은하나이고 입실원룸으로 되어 있어 옷 갈아 입는데에도 줄을 서야 했읍니다 아침에 창문에서 볼수 있는 한탄강 줄기 비경이 좋았읍니다

고석정 바로 앞이라 여행코스로는 딱! 오래된 모텔형이라 솔직히 아쉬웠지만 침구는 깨끗하고 편했어요. 철원이 좋은 숙소들이 많진 않으니까 괜찮은 선택였습니다

The most recent one here on TA is apparently from November 2017, so I'd like to add a kind of update. My wife and I stayed in a ”Deluxe Double” room, during a weekend staycation with her side of the family in early April. I'm with all the top tiers of IHG, Marriott, and Hilton, and I can say that this place is still quite good for what it is, or at least 'decent'. The overall look and feel are both a bit dated. The hotel looks like it may be better located in the 1980's or maybe 1990's. However, the hotel is very clean. :-) The cleanliness of the hotel extends into the bedrooms, which are comfortable. The walls are surprisingly able to keep out noises from adjacent rooms. Our room faced the parking lot but we didn't care. The screen door was great and there was a small balcony in case you needed fresh air. The bed itself was not very mattress-like but rather felt hard. (Nonetheless, I did have a very nice night's sleep.) The refrigerator was very cold and contained a couple free bottles of water. Coffee mix (i.e. a small packet containing both instant coffee and creamer) and tea bags were both provided in the room, with a kettle. No Nespresso machines here. The bathroom is also dated, but nice enough for a 1-2 night stay. Towels, handsoap, shampoo, and body wash were all provided. The shower booth is spacious for one, no matter your size. The toilet comes with an electronic bidet. The only disappointment was that our toilet didn't flush when we checked out, but anyways it didn't affect our 1-night stay and so it doesn't figure into the final score I'll give. There's a 7-11 just a 30-seconds-walk away from the front door, which is convenient if you want some cold simple breakfast foods instead of the Korean breakfast set served by the hotel in the mornings. We had dinner in the restaurant the night before check-out, and the food was fine. I'm American. We got the mushroom salad, the Margherita pizza, the mushroom truffle risotto, and the fried pork donkatsu, and it was all very tasty. We paid 150k KRW for our room (incl. tax) in April and I'd have no problem paying that again if I were back in this district. It's likely true that this is the best hotel in the area. 8.5/10
