Gangneung, Gangwon hotel rooms at the Independent

"Staff was so nice and the room was comfortable !"

"The spacious room and comfortable bed made it a great experience. We didn’t try their meal due to the high price, but we’ll try it next time to see if it’s worth it. "

"Everything was perfect and staff was best. "

"I didn’t use the pool."

"The lobby smells like cigarettes sometimes but other wise it’s a great location and clean rooms. "

"네, 아주 좋았어요. 나중에 또 방문 하고 싶네요^^"

"One disappointing thing was that the advertised infinity pool and sauna were not included, please make this obvious in your property description, others do. We might not have booked had we known. However, as we booked a superior room we received free breakfast and 'happy hour'. You should also advertise this as it was appreciated. Not sure executive lounge is the right name thou as it is not that, great views though. The limited menu is ok for short stays, we enjoyed it, there was beer and wine available too in the evening. The food is the same each meal, no variation, would not have been that impressed if paying but its not expensive so sto moaning, loved the chicken especially. The room was excellent, staff friendly and helpful when needed, location great, we like walking. No swimming in sea outside hotel just head north to next beach, its a nice walk. A lot of the reviews were dated and the hotel appears to have responded to the comments. Its a nice hotel, we came in october so quiet bet its heaving in summer. Fantastic outdoor gym on the beach and walks through the pines lovely."

"Hotels.com and Google maps have this place incorrect on the map, the Residence is very close to the beach. We thought we had booked a place in town. We easily caught the bus to and from the residence to the train station using NAVER maps. A big new complex in new condition. We loved our room with an excellent shower, the bed a bit too hard and small for us. There’s new cafes and restaurants popping up around the complex. The pool times need booking which includes access to the pool bar. We didn’t try the breakfast."

"convenient location near the beach and lake. Several restaurants nearby and in the hotel. Modern, clean hotel"
