Sun Cruise Resort and Yacht, Gangneung

We spent 4 nights here. I wanted to try this unique hotel and it didn't disappoint. The view is amazing. At first, we were on west side of the hotel but they are building an extention and it was very noisy. After 2 nights, I couldn't take it and asked to move to the other side. It turns out it was an upgrade and after some hesitation, the staff gave us a room on the other side. It is beautiful and serene. The down sides are the food here is terrible, so eat at small town not the hotel. The pool and yachting activities were closed. Apparently, they are only available after June. We went mostly for the experience and the view, so we didn't care. It was still a great stay. The hotel staff, altough not fluent in English do their very best to help.

No qualified No frendly staffs.

Everything seemed to be under construction, not all of the dining options given online were open. Food was mediocre and overpriced. All of the staff were very kind. Beautiful area... Just not much to do. No transportation to the beach. You have to hike up and down a very steep hill to get to water.

Very good Hotel. My son love it. our family love it.

They are building a second ship hotel right next to this one. As a result, the pool was under renovation, and so was the hotel beach and the little sushi restaurant that looks like a pirate ship that's by the water, and none of these facts were presented on the website. Not to mention the construction noise which started around 7am. The room was dirty. The bed sheets and pillows were some of the most uncomfortable ones we've seen. Breakfast is outrageously priced. They have a 24 hour bakery, but if you want a latte in the evening or at night, then the front desk personnel will have to serve that. The latte was worse than a gas station cup of coffee! The worst part is that he asked me how the coffee was and when I said that is not exactly what I was hoping for, he turned around and simply walked away. It was alright to stay here for a few nights as this is one of the things to do if you ever do a road trip around Korea...but I'm not sure if I'd go back, especially considering the price of the room. And I forgot...clearly the hotel is on top of the hill, so if you don't have a car...then you will be walking all the way around on the side of the street, as I've seen many people do while we stayed there. And one last thing...if you don't like seafood (plenty of those around), there is only one pork and beef restaurant in the village. If you want something else, you need to drive about 30-40 minutes into the city.
