Hotels With Bars in Gangwon State, South Korea

This hotel is excellent, definitely book a sea-view room. You can hear the sound of the waves as soon as you open the door in the room, and it's soundproof when closed. In the morning, you can watch the sunrise from your balcony without even leaving the room. The hotel has its own convenience store and restaurant, and there are many restaurants, convenience stores, and mini-markets nearby, especially lively on weekend evenings. You don't need to deliberately visit attractions every day; just looking at the sea from your room, or going down to Gyeongpo Beach to stroll along the shore and relax, is incredibly therapeutic. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit Gangneung.

I brought my kids for a vacation and spent a long time choosing this resort! The environment is beautiful! It was Mid-Autumn Festival, so it was crowded and expensive! But the experience was really great! After getting off the express bus, it took half an hour by taxi, costing around 31,000 KRW. They provide bath towels and regular towels, but no toothbrushes or slippers. In the fridge, there was one energy drink, one Coke, and two bottles of water. If you finish the water, you have to refill it yourself at the elevator. You can also buy more! The resort has two front desks, and both have beautiful views!

Nice place to stay. Very close to Mona Yongpyong Ski Resort. Nice view. Ample parking space. Spacious Room. Ondol room can fit 6 people. Kitchenette provided for cooking. There was an issue with our toilet where the toilet bowl is clogged. When we contact the front desk, they promptly send a staff to fix the toilet. Everything is perfect and we enjoy our stay at Tower Condominium.

While clean, the room was much smaller than I anticipated. Check-in took an incredibly long time; I waited for three hours! They claimed to be following check-in numbers sent via KakaoTalk, but this wasn't actually the case. Someone making a lot of complaints was prioritized, and the whole situation was just chaotic. The room was surprisingly small and looked nothing like the photos. I was assigned to Building A, but the pictures on Trip.com were completely different from the room I received (I suspect they were of Buildings B and C). I initially wondered if the hotel had given me the wrong room, but upon re-examining the photos, the very last one did seem to be of Building A. Honestly, I feel deceived, having chosen the room based solely on those initial, misleading pictures. The swimming pool also incurs an additional charge of 80,000 KRW per person (I didn't use the pool). There's a bakery area, and its lobby is so close to the pool that everything is visible from there. While waiting for check-in, I had coffee in the lobby, and it felt rather awkward seeing people in their swimsuits so close by. Breakfast is divided into two time slots, so you must arrive at your allocated time. The coffee service, where staff pour it for you, was also quite inconvenient. Normally, one would get coffee from a self-service machine, but here there's a dedicated 'coffee zone' where you have to place an order with staff. When there's a queue, you end up waiting with your food in hand, which is truly inconvenient. And the coffee wasn't even exceptionally delicious. Despite having three staff members at the coffee zone, the whole process felt incredibly inefficient. The breakfast food itself, however, was tasty. Oh, and a quick note: Netflix isn't available in the rooms, haha. I honestly think the Lotte Resort, where I previously stayed, is far superior. Their rooms are much more spacious, the pool is complimentary, and it definitely has a more luxurious vibe. Breakfast at Lotte is also tastier, in my personal opinion (and you *can* watch Netflix there!). To sum up, Cassia offers breathtaking scenery. The breakfast was varied and delicious! However, I feel they haven't made effective use of the hotel's interior space. It's genuinely vast, and as you wander, you encounter tables, uncomfortable chairs, and very large art books on display, but it all feels a bit forced and out of place. I never felt like sitting down and relaxing on the chairs, which were also uncomfortable. The overall interior design felt somewhat unkempt and disjointed. It's a shame such a large space wasn't utilized more thoughtfully. Next time, I'll probably opt for Lotte Resort over Cassia.

Excellent location (I mean EXCELLENT) as it's 5 min away from the entrance of the park. It is easy to get to by bus no 7/7-1 and by taxi. The hotel looks a bit old from the outside but it is tastefully decorated on the inside and they keep very well in line with the English theme. The rooms are clean and spacious, with very nice views. They have a nice space to put things away and a small fridge. Our shower unfortunately wasn't sealed from the shower door so we ended up with water in the whole bathroom (difficult to control with a 6'4 partner). It has in house laundry and a small grocery shop that saved us one day it was raining too much to head back to the restaurant area. Really recommend if you're visiting the park (or Sokcho as it's also 15-20 min away by bus). Very friendly staff.

It was our second time visiting Nami Island, but our first time staying overnight at this hotel. • Check‑in: Restricted to 3 PM, so plan accordingly. • Room quality: The room was clean and comfortable. • Convenience: The hotel provides a complimentary minibar (charges only apply for additional requests). Staying overnight is a great idea—you don’t need to rush for the cruise or worry about timing. • Front desk service: Staff spoke English well, were friendly, and explained shop and restaurant operating hours clearly. They also gave us a 20% discount voucher for bike rental. • Transport: The hotel offers a shuttle van from the port to the hotel. Walking takes about 20–25 minutes. ✨ Overall: A pleasant and convenient stay on Nami Island. Friendly staff, clean rooms, and thoughtful perks like the bike rental discount and shuttle service made the experience enjoyable.

Excellent stay. Better than expected. I was worried that it would be crowded at the lobby/ common areas due to proximity to ****** which was not a preference. The lobby of convention hotel is grand, peaceful and modern. I was also worried that it would be inconvenient to reach the ski slopes however the shuttle buses were frequent and you can get to the slopes quickly. The bus stop drop off point is right outside the ticket office for ski passes Hotel service was welcoming and superb from check in/out to housekeeping. As foreigners we received discount coupons for ski rental and pass. View from room was nice and loved the cream and shower gel etc. Room service was quick and portions are huge. Also how it was delivered was really good too with the robot. Overall very good and comfortable stay.

We decided on the Two Y Hotel for our family trip this year, keeping in mind the water activities in Yangyang. It was the perfect place for a family of three to stay for two nights during peak season, offering great value for money! The moment we self-checked in and entered the room, hmm... it felt more like a motel than a hotel. Since it consists of one double and one single, the room is small. The facilities are indeed a bit dated! However, you can see the ocean, albeit across the street, so the location is really great. Before checking in, you even receive a text message asking you to sign up for the BBQ and breakfast. We reserved the BBQ and enjoyed it on the first day. Since it was after water activities and there were only two of us, we planned to order additional meals if the food wasn't enough. However, aside from the small beer chicken that looked like it was there, there were skewers, various meats, salad... and even beer! We were too full to eat anything else. I think the best part of this place is enjoying the BBQ on the rooftop! It was a bit of a shame that the round tables were full, but the evening atmosphere and the slight breeze really gave it a vacation vibe. It’s a great value trip where you can enjoy water activities while looking out at Hujin Port and have a BBQ at the accommodation. The cleaning was impeccable. On the second day, I only asked them to replace the towels, but they took care of everything—tidying up and adding disposable items—as well as replacing the towels. My family made another wonderful memory in Yangyang.

This resort is great! It's not crowded at all, even on the slopes, so we had a truly relaxing vacation. Getting to the ski resort was super easy and convenient. We were lucky enough to catch the tail end of the spring snow, which made my child incredibly happy. The breakfast spread was excellent, and they even had good quality packaged juices and yogurts. It's really an ideal spot for beginner skiers to settle in.

The board walk was closed and I didnot realize at the time of booking so it was quite disappointing. Other than that the accommodation was good.
