Hot spring Hotels in Gangwon State, South Korea

Fantastic room! Modern and comfy! Free refreshment from the fridge, nice view. It is more nearer to the Ocean park side than the ski side, but it is just 3 min walk. And the basement can go thru all blocks and to the complex area. Staff is very friendly!

The view from the hotel overlooking the East Sea was really impressive. Looking at the sea without thinking about anything is also invigorating for a new life.

The view is not pretty because it is a cable car boarding area right in front of you. Everything was good except that !! The wellness program was fun too ㅎㅎㅎ The pool sauna was clean and well maintained I didn't eat breakfast because I had a Korean buffet in the evening, but I want to eat breakfast next time !!

I stayed there for 2 days and 1 night and got Deluxe suite 113. Ours was 2 bedroom with living room, kitchen, tv, and small veranda. There were complimentary drinks, coffee maker and tea available. The room was so spacious. We have extra futons/mats! Our meals were so healthy and delicious (salmon, chicken breast in turmeric, veggies and mushrooms). They also have carbonated hot springs and wellness programs like yoga and meditation. How to get here? If you are coming from Seoul, you can take the bus. From Yangyang Bus station, you can just take the taxi. There are foreign taxis in Yangyang. Drivers are so nice and friendly.

Seeking to spend a few days on the Korean Seaside, we booked on short notice 2 nights in an Oceanview Double at Seamarq. Overall, we had a wonderful, very relaxing time: we particularly enjoyed - the spacious, beautifully designed and functional room and lobby area, which truly provides a sense of space and an extension of the hotel space into the sea - the absolutely stunning 5th floor pools area, which was never really crowded and also stayed open despite some minor rain on our first day: comfortable sunbeds, generous opening hours (06:30 - 22:00, great) and good service by the mostly very young crew up here - the nice ocean side loungers, even though we still find it awkward that there is (at least officially) a 1.5 hour limitation to the use of the sunbeds (though at least during our stay this did not seem to have been enforced) - the piano player who brought a serene, peaceful atmostphere to the lobby every night, and the Lobby Bar with an excellent drinks, tea and small food selection - the thought-through room design, incl. the practical wet clothes hanger with clips to secure any item, and the Nespresso machine, tea pot etc. - the overall good selection and tastiness of the food at breakfast and at the buffet dinner (which we only joined once) To be among the very best hotels, Seamarq needs to fix a few things - the setup and food presentation of the breakfast / dining room is more reminding of a low-end, family vacation style: relatively crammed seating, presentation of the food buffet is without love (though the have a great choice - it's more how it's presented), and erratic service (e.g. on first morning nobody cleared used dishes from our breakfast table, while today this was done promptly every time...). - while there is a wonderful beach with the hotel's sun loungers, there are no beach towels available: this is the first time ever around the world we experienced this. Why not provide the same service as at the pool (where those are freely available)? - as others wrote, the elevator availability and waiting time is a real issue - with only 3 elevators that are also partly used by staff to deliver luggage wait times are often excessive. All these were not significantly spoiling our experience, and we would definitely be back here if staying in the area - though it would be easy for the hotel to improve on some of the items above. Overall a wonderful place to stay if in Gangneug, and wanting to be at (or better above :-) ) the sea

An exceptionally located nest for travellers visiting Seoraksan.. the best part about this place are the people who run the show.. Mr Lee Inwon and his family members.. very warm, hospitable, friendly people.. The guidance I received from them really made my trip absolutely worth it.. and I look forward to it again.. the sit out lounge reminds one of a family living room.. Thank you Mr Lee for such a wonderful experience

Motel on the second floor around Mt. Seorak Clean by remodeling A room consisting of two rooms for four people It seems a bit cold because there is a wind The boss kindly asked me to use another room. He introduced me to the sights around.

갑작스러운 가족 여행으로 선택하게 된 곳인데 정말 좋았어요. 호텔처럼 세련되고 고상하진 않더라도 시골 할머니댁이나 깊숙한 산장 같은 특유의 정감 가는 분위기가 있어요. 위치가 시내가 아니라서 다소 외지고 주변에는 편의점 하나 없이 산과 강 뿐이지만, 저는 오히려 그게 좋았던 것 같아요. 오랜만에 건물이 아닌 산에 둘러싸여 있고 싶어서 떠난 여행이었기에 만족스러웠어요. 위치나 객실 특성상 여름에 가면 특히 더 좋을 것 같긴 한데, 겨울에는 산이 눈에 아주 예쁘게 덮여있어서 그것대로 좋더라고요. 그리고 사장님께서 정말 친절하고 자상하셔서 더 기분 좋게 묵을 수 있었어요. 카페를 함께 하시는데, 퇴실하기 전에 거기서 마신 커피와 사장님과 나눈 대화, 사장님께서 선뜻 보여주신 우쿨렐레 공연 모두 참 좋았어요. 홍천은 주변이 대부분 산지라서 많이들 여행으로 오는 곳은 아닌 것 같은데, 잠시 도시에서 벗어나 자연을 감상하고 오기 좋은 곳인 듯해요. 홍천에 온다면 숙소로 여기 시실리 펜션이 좋은 선택이 될 거예요!
