Motels in Gangneung

The uncle and aunty are too kind😌

We loved the location, and the views, the hotel was absolutely beautiful, and right next to the beach. During our stay, we got to watch the sunrise out of the sea from a very comfortable bed through our windows. Later on, we walked down to the beach, which was a maybe three minute walk, and again watched the sun rise out of the sea, with the city’s famous pines at our backs, their fallen needles lightly coating the sand. From our room, we had two balconies: one which faced the sea, (and we were so close that we could hear the waves at all times,) and the other facing the mountains that surround the city. From our balconies we could also see farmland and traditional houses dotting the landscape. The fields nestled up to the forests that blanketed the mountain ranges. We had the best view of any hotel we’ve ever been to. The amenities were luxurious, and included a very large tub, an opulent shower, and a very high-tech toilet. The sink was modern and classy, and the entire space was Instagram worthy and/or could have been featured in a travel magazine. The facility itself was very quiet and clean. It was nearby to the “most romantic place in the world:” Gyeongpo lake and beach. A smaller part of the town lay a short distance to the North, and that area had a lot of really good restaurants right on the sea. Travel was easy from the hotel via taxi and only a short ride to the main parts of the city.

Location and friendly service. Good value for money

Right on the beach shore, you can be wading on the beach within minutes.
