Jeongseon-gun Hotels with Pools

Rooms were pleasant, everything functioning nicely. Hotel is comfortable and reasonably well-organised. Around the resort there are places where poor signage and language difficulties may give pause for non-Korean-speaking travellers, but it's nothing that a smartphone and a little persistence can't overcome. Free shuttle buses to the close-by ski hill and two local towns are frequent enough. Staff are kind, considerate and helpful. Food on the mountain is basic but perfectly fine. Unless you are coming for the casino specifically I wouldn't recommend the hotel in general. All facilities require extra charges and are cynically overpriced to rob more money from the punters, whose tinted-window executive cars arrive in droves. The less said about the buffet at the Grand Table the better. There is something very soulless about the High1 resort in general, and the strong corporate vibes give the place an eerie quality. The skiing is not so bad, although experienced riders will get bored after 2 or 3 days, unless a rare snowfall increases the fun. That said, the resort's snow-making abilities are quite impressive. If you are someone who gets irritated by poor piste etiquette, don't come here. At any given time half of the riders will be in the process of falling over, will have already fallen over, or will be chatting sat in the middle of the fairway. Try not to imagine anything in the way of apres-ski. As a solo traveller bored of watching the casino donkeys shift about the hotel, I went searching in the local towns for a bar. It was a depressing failure. I read the resort was intended to bring money to the depressed mining towns of Sabuk and Gohan, but seemingly it has turned these places into a succession of garishly presented empty restaurants and ”Thai massage” joints, the latter being a favourite of the aforementioned tinted-window crowd.

I had a happy time eating delicious food and breathing fresh air. It was quiet and clean, so I felt like I was getting some proper rest. I want to go there in other seasons too.

Excellent stay. Better than expected. I was worried that it would be crowded at the lobby/ common areas due to proximity to casino which was not a preference. The lobby of convention hotel is grand, peaceful and modern. I was also worried that it would be inconvenient to reach the ski slopes however the shuttle buses were frequent and you can get to the slopes quickly. The bus stop drop off point is right outside the ticket office for ski passes Hotel service was welcoming and superb from check in/out to housekeeping. As foreigners we received discount coupons for ski rental and pass. View from room was nice and loved the cream and shower gel etc. Room service was quick and portions are huge. Also how it was delivered was really good too with the robot. Overall very good and comfortable stay.

I woke up at the high1 palace hotel found out I mistakenly took somebody else’s luggage and since I spoke no Korean I could only ask the hotel for help and luckily all the staffs at the front desk was so helpful specially the front desk manager Bo-young Kim. She called every possible number, came up to the room to see if inside the luggage had any contact detail. At the end she got it done. After I exchanged suitcases back I wanted to show my appreciation and left a tip at the reception for Miss Kim. When I came back to the room I found under the door a letter , some candies, with the tip I gave miss Kim returned inside the letter which Miss Kim wrote and also a letter from Kim saying it was her job to help me and she was happy she could get it done and wish me a great stay in Korea. I’ve stayed at probably around 30 hotels so far in my life and I’ve never seen someone as eager to help as Miss Kim and not even asking/accepting for any return and this really touched my heart.

A family of four went comfortably. There is a separate bed room, and the Korean-style room is also spacious. The view from the floor-to-ceiling windows is refreshing, and there are TVs on both floors. There are also two bathrooms, so I used them comfortably.

It is very convenient to take the Purple bus from Seoul to high 1, we got on the bus at Myeongdong 0845 and went to high 1 at about 12:30. Because the check-in time was not reached, the room was still being cleaned up, but the hotel was very good, allowing us to drop our luggage in the room, there was a room at about 2:30. The room is very clean and the facilities are very new. We live in Mountain CondoA, and it is very convenient to walk to mountain Ski House. There is a convenience store in Block B, which may be sold because of the Lunar New Year? We can only buy some instant noodles, kimchi and other simple foods these days. The hotel has shuttle bus walking grand hotel , mountain condo , hill condo. when we go, take airport bus directly to Incheon Airport (it seems to only provide 20/12-2/2), get on the bus at 1000, and arrive at Incheon Airport at 1400 on time. The only room for improvement is the way the staff communicates. Whether the front desk staff or other staff members are basically not very good at English, but some employees can speak a little Mandarin.

계속 날라가서.. 세번째 쓰는 중..ㅠ 일단 2박3일 넘 조용하고 깨끗하고 따뜻하게 지내다 왔어요! 창틀에 먼지 하나 없도록 깨끗해서 넘 놀랬네요. 고향 사람 사장님 두분도 넘 친절하시구요~ 하이원 보드도 신나게 타고 펜션에서 바베큐도 맛있게 구워먹고. 여름에 또 놀러가자고 했네요~ㅎ

눈이 보고 싶다하여 급하게 예약하고 급하게 눈구경 잘하고 왔어요^^ 조용하게 1박하고 왔습니다. 1박하긴 좋아요^^
