+ I booked the room to go hiking in the Seoraksan Nationalpark. Therefore the location was super convenient (only like 5 minutes by bus and the bus stop was around the corner. And also it's very easy to reach by bus from the Sokcho express bus terminal (20-30min). There are 2 convenience stores in walking distance where you can get food for the hike and a few restaurants. + The receptionist was extremely friendly and made me feel welcome! + The size of the room was way bigger than expected and having a kitchen and bathtub was nice. The entire room was totally clean and I absolutely loved the mountain view!

Nothing. :-)

I recently stayed at the HK Resort in Sokcho, which is conveniently located near the entrance to the Seoraksan National Park. The room was equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay: a full kitchen (gas stove, refrigerator, sink, and dishes), and a good bed in the bedroom. Everything was very clean. There is a convenience store and a bus stop nearby.

The location is fantastic for visiting and hiking the mountain. It’s close to Sokcho as well, so if you need to get to town, it’s 10min away by car. We visited during winter, the rooms were warm and cozy and the scenery all around spectacular.

There isn’t enough parking. Our room had difficulty getting hot water from the shower/tub. The sink and kitchen had scorching water, only the tub/shower seemed to have an issue. The double bed is warm, but the mattress could be more comfy.

Really good hotel to stay at if visiting the National Park Staff didnt speak English but did her best to communictate with us and were helpful The room was big and spacious and had a very well equipt kitchen. We booked the studio room but was surprised to get a room with a seperate extra bedroom Overall it is great place to stay. Its a short 20min walk to the entrance of the National Park. There is a 7/11 and a coffee shop right across the lane As for the hotel itself - The decor and feeling to the hotel was that it was a bit dated and has probably seen better days but for us this added to the charm. It wasnt run down in any way. The area around the hotel had alot of closed down premises, mainly hotels, but again, this added to stay and created a bit of intrigue as to why there was such a decline in the area

Matress wasnt the tickest which made it quite uncomfortable

I was there for hiking Soraksan. The resort is located pretty near the entrance, so I could wake up early in the morning and just walk to the entrance. They've upgraded my room for free, so I could get a good night sleep on a comfortable bed. The room was like an apartment, very spacious, and clean. It had towels, shampoo, cleanser and even toothbrushes, so I would not had to bring my own. After checking out, they kindly kept my suitcase for a whole day. If I ever go back again, I would stay there for sure.

This resort is perfect. The staff were so friendly and kind. The room was perfectly clean and so cozy, and we had a lovely view of the trees. We really enjoyed the sounds of the rain and bird song. The location of the resort is great as it's within walking distance of Singheungsa Temple and one of the National Park entrances. There are also convenience stores and restaurants within walking distance. We can't wait to stay there again when we revisit Seoraksan National Park.

No complaints at all. It was perfect.

Accommodating staff Close to national park Clean rooms Clean linens

Unfortunately the neighborhood seems to be struggling.

Great location for exploring Seoraksan NP without the weekend traffic jam, you just walk out the door to get to the park. The appartment is not too big and a little basic but comfy enough and has pretty much all you'd need. Staff is super friendly.

The western style bed is very small for two tall Europeans, so plan on using the futons as additional bed.

The resort is very close to seoraksan national park. The room is spacious and well equipped. The staff were friendly and helpful. The kitchen is basic but clean and has pretty much everything you need. Overall, HK Resort is great value for money.

It would be nice to have knives and forks in the kitchen too

staff were friendly. rooms were clean. bus stop is just outside, entrance to seoraksan is only 2 bus stops away (10min). 7-11 is just outside. only one restaurant operating for meals. however if you are going to seoraksan, there’s plenty of restaurant options at the base of the mountain.

the restaurant outside doesn’t allow solo diners. hence I had to order 2 portions. owner even wanted to chase me away but hotel staff happened to dine at the same time as me and managed to convince restaurant owner to let me eat, otherwise I wouldn’t have any options for food.
