No complaints about the hotel, just a note to fellow Travelers about the location. This is a very small and sleepy town. It's good if you want fast entry into the park, but be warned that there is nothing to do here other than hike, and there are about 5 food options. If you want something more lively with options after your hike, stay in Sokcho, which is at least 25-30 min bus from the park entrance.

Rooms are HUGE! Clean, comfortable, and secure. Hot water is not super hot, but the water pressure is good. Facilities also offer free washer and dryer (huge plus for after a day of hiking). Free DIY breakfast with bread, ham, cheese, eggs, and cereal. The staff don't speak English but do their best to communicate through translation apps. There is also a self check-in option for after hours. The building/street looks kind of abandoned on the outside, but don't worry, it's just a sleepy town. This place is perfect if you want an early start or late end to the national park as it's only a short 11-minute bus ride to the entrance.

Market only had limited(noodles) food Most restaurants closed better to go to 7-11near park entrance

Ok location 5 min walk from bus Free coffee (no noodles)Staff difficult to find (but helpful when found)

Staff was NEVER present. Isn’t a hotel supposed to be hospitality? The breakfast options could definitely be improved. Only cereal, eggs (that you make yourself) and toast. The communal areas (such as lobby) were very worn and not taken care of. Random items lying around. Could use some love and care from staff…

The bathtub and hot blanket on the bed were something we LOVED! Having coffee and breakfast included was also a big plus. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean. The location was great, 2 minute walk to a bus (for the national park) and a few minutes walk from a few restaurant options. WiFi worked well.

The room was spacious, warm and comfortable. Good location to visit the park. It was very quiet out of season but we still found enough places to eat in the parade of the main road. Handy to have breakfast before the walks. Nobody in reception most of the time so not great if you need any info.

Staff were hardly present during our stay.

Nice location, decent room. Free breakfast was appreciated.

Dead bugs on the wall

The food included and location.

Stayed in October 2024

Some of signs weren't translated to English, so we had to figure it out ourselves. For example, how to separate trash, etc.

Nice bonus was a self - served breakfast. The variety is limited, but good enough to start your day. Coffee machine 24/7 was very nice bonus as well.

Stayed in August 2024

Note that the English name on the sign doesn't exactly match the name on the Booking.com page, but the street number matches. The common areas of the hotel are not as up to date as the rooms, which was fine for us but may not be the vibe you expect from the photos. The town around the hotel is quite run down with many abandoned buildings and there are not a lot of nearby shops and restaurants. However, we took the very fancy pedestrian walkway to the local GS25 convenience store which was great and had everything we needed.

Room was updated and very clean and comfortable. A/C worked great (we were there in August and it was hot). Very close to Seoraksan national park; you can walk the 2 miles to the entrance if you don't care to wait for the bus. It's also easy to catch the bus as it picks up just a block or two away from the hotel. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful despite the language barrier.

The Breakfast was included but not really worth it. The "Gym" is located directly in the Lobby.

The Room's are big, but a little bit old. Unfortunately the whole area looks a bit run down. I don't know why, becaus the location is just perfect for hiking in the Seorak Nationalpark. There are a few Shops and Restaurants, so you can get everything you need.

Stayed in May 2024

Communication before arrival was a bit difficult. They could not tell me the name of the bus stop. It's called something like "Shopping district". (A couple of kiosks and restaurants, I didn't need more).

Very friendly owner. You have to use the translator but nevermind. A HUGE room. It's about 3 stops from the NP.

The hot water stream was very weak, there was almost none

Everything was good except the hot water

Stayed in May 2024

The village doesn’t have many food options, but there are some and alternatively the owner offers free noodles.

Spotless rooms for a very good price. Free shampoo, noodles, breakfast and coffee. The area is a bit run down with lots of empty hotels, no clue why, but that doesn’t make it feel unsafe. The owners great and does his best to make you feel comfortable. There’s a direct bus going to the park. We chose to walk back from the park which took 40min. You can also stay in Sokcho, but we liked the calm vibe outside of the chaotic city and close to the park.

Spotlessly clean, quiet, ondol heating, wide rooms, good location for the National Park.

The whole place was so clean and comfortable. It is so close to the bus station - and it takes 7 mins to the Seoraksan national park. Plus, they're very kind to provide laundry service and free coffee/tea. We enjoyed our stay a lot!

Nice staff and room. Very close to Seoroaksan Park entrance.

Stayed in February 2024

The hotel will soon need some modernization and the area is unfortunately a little downgraded (full of decadent hotels and touristic structures that evidently degraded because of a low touristic flow). It is quite close to the Seoraksan N.P. (15min walking to the entrance), but not close enough in the evening, when you are dead tired after a day of trekking. Luckily there is a bus that drives from the entrance (in 5min you are at the hotel).

Great hotel, rooms (korean style) very big, warm and comfortable, with a large bathroom and a mini kitchen. Staff is excellent, very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great, too, enough food and enough variety. Loved it!

It's perfect if you want to go to Seoraksan, but if you want to enjoy the city it's perhaps a bit remote

Comfortable hotel room close to the Seoraksan park entrance. The room is simple but they offer amenities like soap, tooth brushes, towels etc. There are also complementary cup noodles and sodas. The owners are so lovely, they let us store our luggage while we went for a hike, and then offered to drive us back to the city afterwards!

Perfect location to go for a hike at Seorak mountain. The hostel had a very nice and friendly atmosphere. They provide with snack and coffee at all times which was very pleasant. Nice simple breakfast was also very nice. The room was comfy and everything was smooth and non-problematic. Would def go again next time we are there.

Staff didn’t speak English. Desolate neighborhood, consider to stay in Sokcho as bus connections are excellent.

Spacious clean room. Simple breakfast provided.

The hallway wallpaper is very lumpy, but this did not affect our comfort.

We skipped breakfast, unfortunately.

Stayed in October 2023

All was well

Location, comfort, room size, breakfast, coffee, amazingly friendly owner. Really great value and very very comfortable accommodation with surprisingly great size room. Did not use kitchen, not other amenities like gym, laundry etc but available. About 30 mins from seoraksan NP. Would recommend ana stay again

Stayed in October 2023

Beds were very hard so I had to layer the blankets up underneath me to cushion from it. There were some mosquitos but they didn’t last long after I declared chemical warefare with the bug spray. No Hot spring as mentioned in the name but I probably could’ve figured that out with some research

Pretty close to the Seoraksan mountains which was definitely the highlight. Free drinks in the lobby which was convenient. Room was big and you could watch YouTube and Netflix on the tv.
