10/10 Exceptional

친절한 서비스가 가장 좋았습니다. 음식도 너무 맛있고요. 오래된 호텔이라 불편함은 조금 있지만 어느 호텔 서비스보다 좋은 대접을 받은 느낌이었습니다. 2박 하는 동안 편안하고 맛있는 음식 먹고 푹 쉬었습니다. 다음에 또 갈게요!!

완전 추천합니다!

설악산 국립공원 바로 앞에 위치한 호텔입니다. 일단 설악산 방문하기에 최적의 위치입니다! 내부 시설은 호텔이 오래된 만큼 연식이 느껴지지만 잘 관리되고 있다는 느낌을 받았습니다 ㅎㅎ 그리고 무엇보다 직원분들이 너무너무 친절해요!!! 조식도 기대 이상이었습니다. 설악산 근처 여행가실 분들은 추천드려요~

너무 노후됐어요. 조식도 그닥 먹을거 없고… 방도 지저분했어요 ㅠㅠ
MINJUNG, 1-night trip

실망입니다

시설이 너무 낡은 상태였고,개선의지가 보이지 않아 실망이었습니다. 추워서 잠을 설칠 정도였고 조식도 5월숙박때와 비교해 퇴보한 느낌이었습니다.

설악산의 멋진 모습을 방에서 볼수있습니다

설악산이 보이는 방을 예약했는데 너무 잘한 선택이었습니다. 너무 만족합니다

6/10 Good

설악산 울산바위 가려면 여기가 제일 좋은

복도가 굉장히 아포칼립스.. 20세기.. 그런느낌인데 7층보다 8층이 컨디션이 나아요. 전반적으로 고층이 저층보다 상태가 괜찮은 것 같습니다. 방에따라 담배냄새가 아예 배어있는 경우가 있으니 확인 후 빠르게 방교체를 요구하세요.

2가지 불편

청결은 아주 좋았습니다만, 불편한 것이 두가지 있었습니다. 1. 3명 숙박인데, 침대 1개(2명) + 바닥에 요를 깔고 잤습니다. 바닥이 너무 딱딱하여 잠을 설쳤습니다. 3인 숙박의 경우 3인 모두 침대가 있는 방을 선택하시기 바랍니다. 2. 테라스가 있는데 나갈 수가 없어서 그림의 떡이었습니다(3층).
