I spent three nights at this hotel located not far from the entrance to Seorak National Park.
So let's start at the beginning by stating that this was one of the main criteria that guided my choice and helped me narrow down the wide range of hotels in Sokcho.
I wanted to be within easy reach of the reserve since I'm a hiking enthusiast.
A word of advice, though: take a taxi, which will likely drop you off below the parking area.
This way, you'll be sure to arrive well warmed up before your trekking session.
But I'm getting further away from the hotel...
A second element, logically related to the above, if, like me, you were looking for a quiet and peaceful place to rest after your workout, you've found it. A true haven of peace... perfect for a good night's sleep, except in exceptional circumstances, since the first night I had a serious snorer, and since the walls aren't very thick... I won't draw you a picture.
Breakfast is available by informing reception the night before.
For the price, don't miss out.
Room cleaning is also available, just request it in the lobby.
The rooms are remarkably clean, although not very spacious. But the hotel offers almost all the usual amenities one would expect in addition to the room amenities: toiletries, free 5G internet access, bottled water, French coffee pods (be careful, there's a catch) and green tea...
Unfortunately, when it came time to extend my stay by one night to rest in the dry - the weather is very bad in Korea right now - reservations were fully booked due to Chuseok - Korean Thanksgiving - a major family reunion event where ancestors are honored... needless to say, this is also the most difficult time to find accommodation and, of course, the most expensive for us as guests.
Prices easily double.
Keep this in mind if you come to Korea, and especially if possible, book in advance during the fall holidays. Unfortunately, shortly after booking elsewhere, a room became available...
And where I landed, I quickly found myself in a completely different world, with a clientele and atmosphere that were the opposite of what I had so enjoyed at the Amaranth Hotel.
So British in a very nice way...isn't it?

I went here on the recommendation of someone who had been there before.
It was clean and nice, but
it would have been nice if there was a sofa, even if it was an ondol room.
It was uncomfortable to sit and rest.

It's an old hotel, but it's clean and well-maintained. The staff were so friendly and made me feel so good! It's a great hotel for just sleeping, and it's great value for money!

Honestly, I didn't have high expectations, but this was the cleanest accommodation I've ever stayed at.
The building is old, but last year's Samcheok Sol Beach was so dirty,
and the plumbing wasn't working. But this place, I guess the hotel manager is here. It's incredibly clean. I wasn't expecting much from the breakfast, but it was delicious.
Everything, from the bathroom to the bathroom, was neat and tidy.
I want to stay here often when I visit Sokcho.

The facilities and service were all good. However, since it was central heating, the room temperature could not be individually controlled, which was a bit uncomfortable.

It takes more than 15 minutes to get out of the city, and you have to go get additional items. And it was really annoying that it said 50,000 won for on-site payment...

The hotel room was really clean and comfortable. I can tell what a clean smell is.
Each floor has LG Purifying water purification facilities. The front desk staff were also really friendly.
The location is a little inside, so it may not be easy to visit if you don't have a car.
There is also a nearby hot springs nearby, and I slept really quietly at night. best… A hotel that knows what its customers need…

It's so quiet and great for vacation.
Nearby, Sokcho Red Crab Soup Restaurant, Dopyeong Coffee, Red Bean Cream Coffee, etc.
There are also places nearby where you can leisurely eat and have a cup of coffee.

It was remodeled so it was clean and convenient. It wasn't that far as you could get to the center in about 10 minutes. I plan to use it again next time~

전에도 한번 묵은적 있는데 너무 깨끗해서 그거하나만 보고 재방문했어요. 위치는 별로지만 그만큼 조용하고 청결하기도하고 직원분들도 완전 친절해요. 망설이지마세요.
