Hostel vacation rentals in Gangneung-si

Won and his wife were wonderful hosts. This was my first experience staying at a hostel. Fortunately, they were able to upgrade my room to a single occupancy at checkin. It didn’t feel like a hostel but a warm friendly-run extended family. They went out of their way to assist me, especially me being a single 58 yo female visiting Seoraksan to hike. Won even called a taxi for me at 3am in the morning and made sure I made it to airport on time! Talk about a five star service! Thank you Won and your wife for your warm and friendly hospitality! I hope to return soon.

Great place to stay, clean and comfortable. The host was very helpful in answering all my questions about the stay and the surrounding area and making sure I had a good time. U was even offered an umbrella as I was leaving since it was raining and I only had a raincoat. Overall great experience and very kind host, highly recommend.

If I could give 10 stars for the host staff/service, I would! Like other reviewers, I received an upgrade to my own room and bathroom which was so nice :) and was able to arrange for a late dinner through their in house restaurant when everything else was closed for the night. Host and his wife both were so lovely! The host was so responsive beforehand and during when I had different questions. Would totally recommend!

It’s the perfect place to stay in, the national Park is one bus stop or 25min walk away and the bus in the other direction takes you to the beach in 30min The place was wonderful and everything was clean. The host was super nice and he speaks awesome English. Breakfast and dinner can be added and otherwise there is a convenient store right down the street

Korean style room is super minimum but nice and with everything necessary! I recommend it <3 nice mountain view too!

My stay here was brief but I hope to return again soon. Getting to the hostel from the Intercity Bus Terminal is easy but I also recommend taking a taxi if you want to save a lot of time (not cheap but not expensive). At check-in I was given very helpful information about hiking trails and they have a map with estimated trail times. They also offered me an upgrade to a private room because it wasn't busy! The breakfast is incredible and I highly recommend it, and the pizza option for dinner is a little more expensive but enough to feed two people. It's not luxurious but it's comfortable, warm (it was cold outside) and has a fridge. There are a handful of food options and one convenience store very close but you can also get food at Seoraksan Park. Also be mindful if taking taxis the short distance to or from the park entrance because they might charge you more than they should if you're a foreigner. Check-out on weekends can also get busy so plan ahead. Thank you for hosting me! :)

Great place to stay at! Very helpful guests and felt home right away. I even got upgraded twice as the dormitories were super packed during the period I stayed. Totally recommend!

I had to go to school for a week, so I booked it as a twin room, and it was so good!! The room was nice and the bathroom was big, so it was nice:) It was nice to have a bus stop right in front. There was toothpaste and a toothbrush, and there was a lot of water in the refrigerator, so it was really, really nice. 😍

Highly welcoming host who speaks good English. Available and friendly. Comfortable and large room, with all the amenities available.

Weekenders was a lovely stay! The location is great with the KTX station just a 10 minute walk away and the express bus terminal about 20 minutes away by bus. A lot of attractions and cafes are accessible by foot from the Weekenders. The accommodation itself was comfortable, and even though it was a mixed dormitory it didn’t feel uncomfortable since each person gets their own private capsule.

I liked that it was close to all the places to go to Mukho.
