Hotel Dengan Wifi di Gangwon State, South Korea

Location was great, nice ocean view Room interior and bed was not as expected Seems like try to save money on interior And bed is not as comfortable

The hotel's hygiene is excellent, and the rooms are quite spacious, making it very family-friendly. The hotel's location is a bit out of the way, and the main issue is that parking isn't free at the hotel's own lot. You have to park about a ten-minute walk away (though there's a hotel shuttle service). This is quite inconvenient when the weather is hot. Also, you absolutely cannot check in before 4:00 PM, so be aware of that if you're planning to go. The staff can come across as cold, lacking the usual warmth you'd expect from a theme park hotel. On the positive side, the park was not crowded, so there were hardly any queues, which made the kids happy, though the adults found it a bit boring 😌

This was my second visit. Located between Gyeongpo Lake and the sea, the view here is definitely the best in the vicinity. The room condition is also good, and being able to enjoy swimming, fitness, and bathing all within the hotel is a great advantage. However, the service always seems to fall short of these excellent facilities, which is a pity. The lobby staff are generally all friendly. But the service from the ancillary facility staff was disappointing. I used the swimming pool and sauna, and the customer service was a bit lacking. Especially considering the considerable extra charges for using them… The hotel might be 4 or 5-star, but the customer service felt more like a late-night convenience store.

The room and bathroom was clean and wide. There was heating in the room, Netflix, amenities for comfortable stay. As I saw, there is a free breakfast in the morning for the guests (except Mondays), so I couldn’t try it but I was absolutely satisfied with the room.

The place is good, 7 minutes to ski and has a supermarket and eatery place nearby. Honestly the room is nice, with cooking facilities but the owner was not friendly at all. The toilet was stuck and leak they came with only the plunger and ask us settle ourself. Is winter and we came with kids, the kids built a snowman and they destroyed the snowman after we went for ski trip. We are a group of 10 and we wanted to cook our dinner. There is a small hut with table and chair and BBQ facilities, we ask to BBQ facilities (We are willing to pay, 10,000 won as stated) but she said is winter so we can’t use the BBQ pit, ended up we use the stove to cook up the meat. The husband and wife came in to the huts and told us we can’t do BBQ but we explained to her we just cook the meat and we didn’t do any BBQ. We left the place with cleaner than we came in. I have to WhatsApp her and show her the place is cleaned. The warn us that we must left the place by 1am but in fact all of us finished eh 9.30pm every day since we are tired from Ski. During the last day, they came to us and I was thinking they come and say goodbye but they just make sure we throw every single piece of rubbish outside the house. My husband wear shoe and just step to take our luggage and the owner insist us to take out the shoe before we went in to the house. Although we have explained, we just step in and take the luggage and go, he insisted us to take out the shoes. I have been travelling all around the world and we do understand every cultural is different but as the operator of tourist industry, the owner has to be service minded. If you can’t accept any international travellers then please do not list your place in any platform or put up a notice that international tourist is not permitted to stay there and we won’t book accordingly. Is such a shame to see this happened to us after our 5th trip to Korea and our 3rd trip to Pyeongchang for ski.

I've traveled to Gangwon-do many times, but this was my first time staying in Gangneung... I chose Hound Hotel because of the excellent reviews. It was a great choice. The staff, including the manager, were very friendly. We had a twin terrace room with a direct sea view, and I especially liked how clean the bedding felt. The hotel is right in front of the beach, perfect for a stroll, and the terrace even has a bench. Among hotels in Gangneung, it offers great value for money. The breakfast was also very good for the price; it consisted of only worthwhile dishes, and they tasted excellent. The hotel's interior, both in the rooms and the lobby, is beautifully designed. We thought we'd have to drive to a restaurant for dinner, so we just had simple convenience store sandwiches. However, we later found out there's a ramen restaurant nearby before getting to the hotel. If I stay in Gangneung again, I'd definitely like to go back.

This hotel offers breathtaking views! My previous disappointment of missing the sunrise over the sea at Gyeongpo Beach in Gangneung was completely remedied here in Jeongdongjin. If the season prevents you from catching the sunrise from your room's balcony, a short walk to Sunrise Park will bring you face-to-face with the vast, boundless ocean, where the sunrise is truly awe-inspiring. The hotel itself is a unique attraction with excellent and extensive facilities, making it perfect for families with children to relax and enjoy a leisurely vacation. There's a restaurant on-site where you can book a scenic table in advance. For guests craving local cuisine, taxis are available to take you to restaurants down the hill. The room is exceptionally well-maintained, and the bedding is very clean and comfortable. However, the bathroom area has sunken steps, which guests unfamiliar with the room layout or with impaired vision could easily trip over. I suggest adding a friendly reminder sign to alert guests about the steps and ensure their safety during their stay.

The room was cleaned every day and we got fresh towels, toiletries and water everyday. There was also enough parking space for those with cars. It’s also very close to the beach and many restaurants. There’s a 7Eleven and a pizza place on the lower level. I had a pleasant stay there.

Overall, good cost to quality if you visit with multiple guests and split the cost. There is a shuttle operating reasonably frequent times to the casino and ski houses. Basic amenities provided.

I had a very comfortable stay for three nights in Gangneung, thanks to how clean and well-maintained the accommodation was. The breakfast was fairly simple, but more than enough to start the day, and I especially appreciated the sense of space, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and comfortable. Getting around was easy whether by bus or taxi, and the location made it convenient to visit nearby attractions like Ojukheon and Jungang Market. For those travelling by car, the spacious parking area is definitely a big plus. There’s also a lovely pine forest path just behind the property, perfect for a quiet stroll. The ocean view from the room really added to the holiday atmosphere, and being able to enjoy both the sunrise and sunset was one of the highlights of staying at Shilla Monogram.
