Absolutely loved the hotel. This was my first time experiencing a self-check-in process, where you register via a tablet at the entrance and receive your key card, rather than interacting with a person. It's incredibly convenient and perfect for introverts. The room was clean and cozy. There was water in the fridge, and they provided several charging cables for different devices, which is super handy for anyone who might have forgotten theirs. The bathrobes came in individual bags. I particularly liked the shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel. I also appreciated that the bathroom and bedroom were separated by a small hallway.
I spent three nights at this hotel located not far from the entrance to Seorak National Park.
So let's start at the beginning by stating that this was one of the main criteria that guided my choice and helped me narrow down the wide range of hotels in Sokcho.
I wanted to be within easy reach of the reserve since I'm a hiking enthusiast.
A word of advice, though: take a taxi, which will likely drop you off below the parking area.
This way, you'll be sure to arrive well warmed up before your trekking session.
But I'm getting further away from the hotel...
A second element, logically related to the above, if, like me, you were looking for a quiet and peaceful place to rest after your workout, you've found it. A true haven of peace... perfect for a good night's sleep, except in exceptional circumstances, since the first night I had a serious snorer, and since the walls aren't very thick... I won't draw you a picture.
Breakfast is available by informing reception the night before.
For the price, don't miss out.
Room cleaning is also available, just request it in the lobby.
The rooms are remarkably clean, although not very spacious. But the hotel offers almost all the usual amenities one would expect in addition to the room amenities: toiletries, free 5G internet access, bottled water, French coffee pods (be careful, there's a catch) and green tea...
Unfortunately, when it came time to extend my stay by one night to rest in the dry - the weather is very bad in Korea right now - reservations were fully booked due to Chuseok - Korean Thanksgiving - a major family reunion event where ancestors are honored... needless to say, this is also the most difficult time to find accommodation and, of course, the most expensive for us as guests.
Prices easily double.
Keep this in mind if you come to Korea, and especially if possible, book in advance during the fall holidays. Unfortunately, shortly after booking elsewhere, a room became available...
And where I landed, I quickly found myself in a completely different world, with a clientele and atmosphere that were the opposite of what I had so enjoyed at the Amaranth Hotel.
So British in a very nice way...isn't it?
Amazing hotel. The room has everything you need. The sea is nearby 😍 and there's a beautiful lake on the other side. There's a bus stop behind the hotel, easy to get to from the train station.
There are lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. There's a 7/11.
Thank you for your hospitality 🥰
Personally, it is the cleanest and prettyest value for money among Yangyang accommodations. The ocean view from the inside is really the best. The bed is also high-end, and the amenities are the best. !!
I don't know if it's the staff or the boss, but I'm sorry that I accidentally broke the wine glass, but he said it was okay. Thank you for your kind welcome. ! I enjoyed using it :)
I will visit again next time. !
Front staff are friendly The location is great, so it's easy to access anywhere. I stayed because I liked the time to enter and leave, but it's convenient.
Great location:
5min walk from gangneung ktx station, eateries nearby, a convenience store right at the corner, walking distance or take bus to the central market. Central area but quiet neighbourhood.
Comfy environment:
Hotel is very neat and clean, looks very new and smell nice once you step in entrance. Self-check-in.
P.S. i only found out after check-out that guests may choose the aroma oil at the lobby n bring it to room :] nice Flow-er experience 🌺😌
Nice amenities:
Reserved the spa n movie room while the room is equipped with projector n soundbar, n you get to control different lighting setup with tv remote control, pretty cool! Good time watching some kdrama n hot bath after long journey to spend the night. Love the fact that shower water is strong n hot enough which is very essential for me.
One downside is that the light of the ac and wifi router keep flashing at night and may affect if you are a light sleeper… everything else is great. I love how they have usb-a ports n also wireless charging!
You can also borrow extra amenities like charging cable n hair straightener at each floor locker cabinet.
Luggage Storage
Available after check-in/after check-out at each floor or lobby behind the water/coffee/refreshment section.
Overall, highly recommend with such price👍🏿
Overall, I'm very satisfied with the hotel. On the first day, I booked a 1.8m king-size bed room, but I was given a room with a 1.5m bed. However, after speaking with them, they upgraded me to a two-bed room for the second day. The room was very spacious, and I particularly liked having a separate entryway. They provided all the necessary disposable toiletries, and even the toilet paper was a good brand. There's a coffee machine on the first floor, so you can grab a coffee anytime. The front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful.
It's not that big though. I think it's good in terms of cost-effectiveness.
Moreover, it was nice that there were many dakgalbi restaurants nearby.
There was nothing particularly inconvenient.
Seems almost brand new with clean and quiet including surroundings. Highly recommend to everybody who has plan to visit Sockcho downtown. Having good memory of very friendly receptionist, my lazy late morning started even after passing a simple breakfast toast and coffee. My single bed seemed hard feeling to me, cos it might be my getting old age style. Enjoyable stay.
I have stayed here before to hike Seoraksan. This time, I had a nicer room; however, because it is near the mountains and older, there was a huge house centipede on the ceiling when I got there. Luckily, the bug spray they had worked on it. Other than that, there were some small stains on the bedding, but everything else was clean. The bed was comfortable, and the location is about 55 minutes walking distance from Seoraksan National Park. It's only about an 8 minute taxi drive there if not too much traffic. There is a beautiful river/stream nearby. This place is also only about a 16 minute drive from the Sokcho Express Bus Terminal. Obviously, I like this place enough to stay again. Breakfast was toast, cereal, and you could make eggs/a toast sandwich I believe.

Very Good
GGuest UserThis is a good place to stay if you come to visit the Raksansa Temple or to swim. The hotel is three years old, so facilities are fairly new. It has a cafe downstairs, waterfront seafood restaurants and convenience stores all within walking distance. It has a gym and washing machines and dryers (5000W per cycle for each) at level 2. staffs are friendly - they speak English, one of them Mr Chui speaks Chinese - If I come back to Yangyang, I would consider booking here again.
GGuest UserI stayed for two nights, and I managed to have an entire floor to myself for one of the nights! This hostel is a little far from the centre of Gangneung but there is a bus stop nearby and it seems reasonably well connected to other areas. The room is very warm, especially good in the winter. I would recommend bringing some slippers if you don't want to walk on the ground, but it's still clean. The bathroom has slippers provided. The bathrooms are clean with enough space, but I did find grime on the bottle of the shampoo/conditioner/bodywash bottles when I lifted them up. There are charging points inside the capsule, along with the option to heat the blanket/bedding. The hostel is self check in, but I found this confusing because I didn't find this information clearly written on the booking confirmation notice.
GGuest UserIt's an wonderful combination to stay at high valley hotel, rent snowboard and ski at top ski rental and snowboarding at high1.
The location of high valley is very convenient, nice Korean BBQ walk 3mins, only USD 12 and you can eat until you full. The rental Top Ski is 1 min by walking and it's an English store. Very few Korean people can speak English, even the service cent of high1 resort. Top one also sale lift tickets at 40%off price and you don't need to waste your time at ticket office.
Nice view from room, and 3 different kinds of charge plug for you mobile phone. You can ask front desk to call a taxi to high1 valley ski house. The price of taxi is USD 3. By walk is 10mins, in havey sonw 20mins. And if you rent something at Top ski, they will sent you to valley ski house.
리리뷰어~Front staff are friendly The location is great, so it's easy to access anywhere. I stayed because I liked the time to enter and leave, but it's convenient.
GGuest UserThis place is rightly distanced from the most busy travelers area - surfing beach in Yang Yang. Still in walking distance. The building is surrounded by pine tree forest and beach view. The service for customers is very warm and extremely nice. Breakfast bagel +complimentary water+free nespresso capsules-refilled , free cafeteria with all sorts of teas and coffee +free use of laundry-drier are all so generous. ROOFTOP bbq area is very nice too. Its self contained unit but also offer room cleaning service twice in a week. The owner of this boutique resort really provides personal service. I don't drive so was gonna call taxi when I need but the owner courple offered a ride whenever they can. How kind!!!
GGuest UserI’m from New York and traveling Korea and Japan for 100 days. Alone.
Last time I visited Gangneung was 44 years ago and this town changed surprisingly.
‘Hotel The Shap’ was located pretty close to main station ( reason why I picked this place) and will see the rooftop signboard on the top of the building from front of the station square.
Fairly enough clean room and large bathroom and most of all, friendly desk.
Clean up teams are friendly and cooperative as per your request.
Price was very much reasonable also.
I recommend to other fellow travelers and will come back if I come to Gangreung in future.
Thanks for kindness of lady owner.
GGuest UserThis place is very nice, located not too far from the beach and easy to find. Not the most touristic part of the city therefore it's not so easy to find things to do or eat around especially during the low season.
The room was clean and as described. The bed is located in the attic so the ceiling is a bit low. The balcony and window are right by a garden/backyard, which was not fully developed yet. The view is not the best trait of the room.
We arrived later than expected and it was raining. The umbrella I had left at the front door, where umbrellas were all stored, was stolen and I never found it again.
ゆゆーたろー2I used this hotel for a solo trip. It's about a 5-10 minute walk from the station, which was great because when I arrived, the taxi queue was incredibly long. The room was spacious and had plenty of amenities. There was also a fridge with water. The toilet and shower were in the same area, but the toilet had a bidet. There was an elevator, and a convenience store nearby. The market was a bit of a walk, but still easily accessible. Breakfast was included, but I didn't try it, so I can't comment. All the staff were lovely and helpful, and you could even ask them for sightseeing recommendations. I'd definitely like to stay here again.
불불도져I stayed for one night, with the main goal of trying Chodang Sundubu. The location was super convenient – just a 10-minute walk to Chodang Sundubu Village, and I loved that there was a beach right in front. The building itself felt a bit old, but it was perfectly fine for a one-night stay.
