Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Nice hostel, well placed in front of the sea. People at the desk are nice and check in was pretty easy. Burger restaurant downstairs and 7eleven were pretty useful

    Bright rooms, Good lightening, Excellent WIFI, Sufficient plugs, Big bathroom Gyeongpo beach is beautiful, wide and white; if you walk along the pine trees to the right of the hotel for 15 minutes or so, you come to Gangmun beach, not so beautiful but with some good bakeries, coffeeshops, and restaurants. The taxi drive from Gangneung station is cheap (and short), the pool area on top of the hotel spectacular (but you have as you have everywhere in South Korea, too, to pay for the hotel pool).

    Great location and price off the season. The pool is worth its extra charge.

    This is a great little guesthouse near the traditional market and the river. Good transport links to bus and rail stations and cheap taxis. Very helpful, well travelled host - language is no barrier in the communication of travellers : ) Large comfortable, quiet room. Highly recommended.

    We came for the Danoje festival and were super happy about our stay at the Aark House. The hostel had a very homely feel to it, thanks to the lovely owner. It was clean and felt safe. We especially liked that there were curtains for the beds giving some extra privacy, towels provided, free shampoo and shower gel, and a kitchen for us to use. The house was around 15 minutes walk from the festival and the city centre which was very convenient. We would definitely recommend this place!
