Top 5-Star Hotels in Sokcho-si

FINAL VERDICT: Family oriented resort that has everything needed for a family vacation. 3 Line summary - The property is located on a scenic coastside hill, offering views of the East Sea, Seorak National Park, and Sokcho city downtown is a 10 minute drive. Resort is constructed to offer panoramic vistas to guests directly from their room window & balcony. - Resort has everything needed for a familiy retreat. They have a large indoor water park(Sokcho Water Park), 5+ restaurants including one that you can do K-BBQ(Natural Soul Kitchen), large and fun kid’s cafe (Lala Kids Adventure), direct access to East Sea coast and the best Korean seafood shops are within uber delivery distance. They even have a mini golf place. - Lotte Resort Sokcho also offers various family oriented programs that I recommend you check out. We chartered a catamaran yatch and cruised the East Sea, went to a local strawberry farm and harvested a couple baskets, tried Lotte’s cookie house making program which are all available through the resort. WHEN: May 2023 WHO: Family of 3, including a 17 month old daughter WHAT ROOM: Character Suite Room We visited the Lotte Resort Sokcho as a family retreat in May with our 17 month old daughter. The Resort was our top choice because it had all the facilities that one would want one visiting a beach coast resort, and at the same time very family friendly as they provided baby amenities such as baby food, bed, moisturizer etc. We stayed at the Character Suite room, which is a spacious room that features a Lotte themed slide, hide&seek spots and children’s restroom. Our daughter had so much fun in the room - she rode the slide a gazillion times and played hide and seek with us. My wife liked the fact that the room had a good combination of contemporary designs and playful childrens’ furniture, all with safety in mind. Stay at the Lotte Resort was also memorable as we took advantage of the many facilities. On the first day, we went to the indoor Water Park which offered wave riding, a large lazy river, water slides of all sizes and a jacuzzi for relaxing. We headed to the BBQ restaurant (Natural Soul Kitchen) at dinner to charge up and had some fun cooking lobster, beef, pork and lamb racks. The restaurant also offered many Korean dishes that goes well with the BBQ we had ample choice. After a good rest in our beach view room, we headed up to R.9PUP, a pub on the 9th floor as the name suggests. The pub offers a wide range of Korean local brewery at a scenic view of the coastal beach. It was even better as the pub had a family friendly atmosphere where the young ones are invited to play the dart and chill on the bean bags on the terrace. All in all, this is a great one-stop resort that offers great view, nature, variety of dining options, all at the same time running large scale facilities such as the Sokcho Water Park. I definitely look forward to visiting again and with comfortably recommend to families looking for a good time toget

Service, sea view, cleanliness, comfort, food are all good, and the price is worth it. The hotel itself is a great location. Ha. But. Instead, I stayed in a two-room suite, but there were three major flaws: 1. The door chain was installed incorrectly by the hotel, so I had to push and open it with my finger every time I closed and opened the door, which was very dangerous, so I taped it on. 2. My mother was locked out because the bathroom lock was broken, so I opened it from outside. 3. The bathtub in the living room took several hours to fill up with water, and I found out that the drain plug had a gap, which took a long time. There was no compensation for facility defects or inconveniences, and they just said sorry and that was the end of it.

Hotel prices are prohibitively expensive on weekends, but I had a comfortable trip thanks to the clean hotel at a good price. I used it for the ocean view, and I could see the Sokcho Lighthouse, and the bedding was clean, so I had a comfortable rest. It’s a good hotel.~

The amount I paid for our three days staying at the hotel paid off. Its cleanness and amenities were excellent, its location to the nearby restaurant was very convenient. The ocean view was phenomenal. Parking guide was there 24/7 and I liked it very much. The front desk girls were very nice and polite. I strongly recommend this place to anyone. Five stars rated plus

The hotel is in a great location, very convenient to the beach, E-Mart, and the bus station. There is also a bus downstairs that goes directly to Seoraksan. The front desk is also very friendly. The swimming pool on the roof is a little expensive, but the view is great. There is a 711 and a restaurant downstairs. The only downside is that the waiting time for this elevator is too long, especially during peak hours.

The hotel is grand and there are four towers, with adequate facilities and friendly staff, the hotel is very comfortable and I would like to live here again in foreseeable future!

Very clean and comfortable. The underground parking lot is very convenient. The night view is also very beautiful. I will book this hotel every time I come to Sokcho. I can see the night view of the bridge and the sea view from a distance, and I can also see the lighthouse in the distance.

The hotel is located a 3-minute walk from Seoraksan National Park. You can get there by car or bus, stop at the hotel. The hotel has a small shop selling souvenirs and snacks. Upon arrival, we were upgraded for free to a larger room with a better view. The room has comfortable beds and pillows, clean bed linen, towels and bathrobes. There is shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, body lotion. There is also a kettle and tea, bottled water, it was added every day. We took breakfast upon arrival; if you book breakfast in advance, you get a 10% discount. Breakfast is not cheap, but good. There is plenty to choose from and everything we took was delicious. If necessary, you can exchange money at the hotel. The course is tolerable. The employees at the information desk are very responsive.

I took my 3-year-old baby and 1-year-old baby with me, and the accommodation was comfortable and nice. They even gave me a free upgrade because I waited a long time at check-in, and the people at the breakfast restaurant were very friendly. Although the accommodation is old, the bedding is clean.

The view from the accommodation is very nice and the lobby staff are very friendly. The weather was very cold outside, but the room was very warm and comfortable, so I had a good rest!!!
