    Everything was amazing, had an unforgettable stay for three nights. The restaurant was good with unappealing food, we ordered excellent dishes. The location was stunning, around 10-15 minutes walk from Anlakam. The hotel was next to a park and a waterfall and overlooked the mountain.

    We loved this very well decorated place and its unbeatable location. Our room was not only fully functional, but also generous-sized with balcony, a rock hard Korean style futon bed and mountain views to the front. Location: the hotel was right by the Seoraksan National Park, and temple.

    Breakfast was quite expensive, can be better.

    We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is absolutely perfect, as it is very near to the entrance of the national park. It made it so convenient for us to explore the beautiful surroundings and go on hikes. The room was comfortable and clean, with a stunning view of the mountain. We even saw waterfalls from our bed after a rainy morning - such a breathtaking sight to wake up to. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Han Ji Yong at the front office who made our check-out seamless. The breakfast buffet was also amazing, with a great variety of continental and Korean food.

    This hotel is a great choice for anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay. Highly recommended!

    During my recent stay at Kensingtonhotel Seorak, I was blown away by the breathtaking mountain view from my room. It was truly mesmerizing and made my stay even more enjoyable. The comfortable bed provided a great night's sleep, which is always a plus when traveling. The staff, especially Sally Ahn from the front desk, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and even sent us personalized emails and postcards. The location of the hotel, close to Seoraksan National Park, was perfect for exploring the area. I highly recommend Kensingtonhotel Seorak for a memorable stay in Sokcho.

    Unbeatable location for hiking in the national park.

    Noble lobby in 5* flair. Rooms on the other hand are getting on in years and rather 2-3* level.

    Great location directly at the entrance of Seoraksan NP. More dreamlike, almost surreal, view of the mountains. We had booked a suite, the price was absolutely fine. The hotel is a bit old, the furnishing is spoiled, but due to the old English style of the hotel, this did not bother us too much. Afternoon tea is recommended (even if not quite in proper style). The staff was very friendly and spoke good English.
