4-Star Hotels in Gangwon State, South Korea

Nice hotel well situated by the night market, Abai Village and Rodeo Drive. Easy to walk around and explore. The rooms was well kept with no issues. Only downside was lack of parking. They will try to accommodate you so you won't be stuck, but was inconvenient.

The room's cleanliness was generally good, but the hotel's location is quite far from the city center, which is really inconvenient without a car. It was hard to get an Uber, but thankfully the front desk staff were great; they helped me call taxis a few times and were very patient, which I appreciate! The hotel is part of a resort. I had fried chicken downstairs, but for other meals, I took a taxi to the city, which cost nearly 100 RMB per trip. If you're staying at the hotel, you get a 10% discount at Ocean Play; remember to mention your room number when buying tickets at the front desk. It's divided into a sauna and a swimming pool. I mistakenly went to the outdoor area of the sauna, thinking it was the famous Instagrammable pool, but there are still outdoor hot tubs there.

Overall, the experience was quite good. The hotel is very close to the beach—only about a five or six-minute walk—and also near the express bus terminal, making it very convenient. The room had a nice ocean view, was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. However, the room design wasn’t very convenient. For example, there were no power outlets by the bed—the only ones were on the TV stand—and the light switches were a bit far from the bed, which made it slightly inconvenient. Overall, though, it was a pleasant stay with great value for money, an excellent location, and satisfying service.

Amazing views and spacious room as listed. A little bit disappointing as they don’t provide much amenities and room service, other than it was up to my expectations. Me and my partner was in the corner paranoma suite room and the ocean views are unblocked. You can see the sunrise right infront of the bed. Location was very convenient, many seafood restaurants nearby and transportation is easy. Free parking if you are staying.

The room is clean and comfortable, and the staff is very friendly. One of the highlights is watching the sunrise from the hotel’s rooftop, which is a significant advantage. They offer a simple breakfast for those who prefer not to spend time deciding what to eat in the morning. However, if you don’t have a car, the walk from the train station to the hotel can be a bit tiring. Alternatively, you can take a taxi or rely on the bus service, which runs every two or three hours. Overall, this hotel is an excellent choice if you want to spend some time in Jeongdongjin and enjoy the sea.

We decided on the Walkerhill Hotel after much deliberation on a one-night filial piety tour for my parents, who are in their 80s, and my uncle and his wife. We wanted a truly comfortable stay, and the hotel was a great choice. The room was spacious and clean. We especially requested an ocean view, and they loved waking up to the sunrise. The buffet breakfast was also delicious. We're planning another stay in the summer!

Good: Very spacious room with great view and a balcony! Bathroom had a rain shower. Walkable to Yeonggeumjeong Pavilion which has great night view. Bus opposite hotel goes directly to Seoraksan. Walking distance to Intercity Bus Terminal. Bad: 1. Front desk. I asked about the swimming pool when it was before 9PM. Official closing time was 10PM and last entry was 9:30PM. Front desk staff told me the swimming pool entry has closed for the day even though it's not 9PM yet. 2. Only had housekeeping once even though I stayed for 4 nights. This was not explained during check in.

Nice clean and comfortable room. Location,close to the beach and the express bus terminal. There is a bus stop right outside with bus to Seoraksan national park. And Sokco city center. About 10-15 min by bus to the center. A few restaurants and convenience stores nearby. Staff is friendly and helpful.Good view from the balcony on high floor rooms. Recommended.

i stayed here in January, and while I initially visited hoping for heavy snow and cold weather, the weather in Sokcho turned out to be surprisingly beautiful and mild! The location of this hotel is its biggest selling point. It is very conveniently situated nearby the Emart and Bus Terminal, making arrivals and departures seamless. Most importantly for me, it is only a 10-min walk to the beach, which made it incredibly easy to head out and catch the sunrise over the East Sea every morning. The facilities are clearly quite new. Everything was impeccably clean and felt modern, which made the stay very comfortable. Overall, a fantastic stay. I would definitely choose this hotel again for its convenience and cleanliness!

Appeared to be newly renovated. The rooms were spacious, had a small equipped kitchen, and great a/c. No conditioner for hair and only three hand towels in the bathroom. But really amazing value for the price, esp for families for small kids. There’s a kid zone in the hotel with arcade and fun games and of course water park next door. Starbucks and GS25 in hotel too.
