Find Hotels in Pocheon, South Korea

My family and I enjoyed two days. We did one day of sledding and did the following day with some ski lessons that were at a discounted rate of 40% if we stayed in the hotel. Service was great! They did some on the spot changes to accommodate our family needs. Be aware that the descriptions of what you are getting may be slightly off due to translation issues. For example, we chose the room with king beds and two futons (as per the description on agoda). They do not have futons in most Korean hotels you sleep in, what is known, as Ondol style (thick mats on the Floor). Otherwise, this is a convenient spot at the base of the ski slop for a decent price!

Pros: easy check in; large , quiet, and well equipped rooms; good food including a great breakfast buffet; lovely hot spring with modern facilities; many amenities including karaoke and convenience store. The lake offers a nice and easy 4 loop hike. Cons: hard to get to, especially by public transit; not much in the immediate area besides the lake. No extras (breakfast, hot spring, karaoke, etc) are included in the room rate. There are some restaurants, bars, cafes, etc. in the nearby area but we visited during the off season and they were almost all closed. The rooms are large but spare, which may appeal to some but not others.

We were very happy with our stay. The upstairs bedroom and bathroom were perfect. The downstairs living room was spacious for the kids to sleep on the mats plus had their own bathroom. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed. The air conditioning was perfect for a long day of site seeing. Super close (1 km) from Art Valley and a short drive to Pocheon for dinner. Herb Valley was a perfect location for the next day of site seeing. Quiet neighborhood, room outside to toss a football and eat breakfast at the covered picnic table area. The owner is super friendly and her kids helpful and a strong English knowledge to help should we have had questions. Highly recommended!
