CHAEUL Pension

The host was very friendly, kind, and welcoming. I hope we will see him again. We enjoyed many chats and tasting the 오이고주. The room was comfortable and clean, with an amazing view of the mountains, and a really cozy, family atmosphere.

바베큐 장소가 넓고 숯도 좋고 숙소 내부도 청결합니다

위치가 좀 구석진 곳에 있어요

Nice remote location, perfect to relax. The owner is very supportive to make your stay comfortable

The owner was very helpful and kind.

There were inconsistencies of water supply to the village due to chuseok holdiyay which caused trouble for a few hours. But the owner helped a lot

Superb host. Superb stay. Excellent facilities with snooker and campfire . Kids loved the place. Ample parking . Host made superb coffee. Very beautiful and serene place within plantations. Will surely return. Been travelling in Korea for 10 days but this is the best stay.

Everything. The location. The coziness. And especially the host. His kindness, friendliness and generosity.

Nothing.

It is such a beautiful place, very quite and surrounded on all sides by the mountains. I was very lucky with the weather and could enjoy the beautiful views. The host was very friendly and helpful - you can honestly ask him anything. Even to get you from the train or like he did for me, bring me to the train station. Very yellow sunflower room was appriciated.

Does bring me to another point... It's waaaay smarter to go here by car. That way you can visit more places. Not my finest travel planning moments. But we live and we learn.

Warm on arrival, peaceful area!

If you're looking for a pension within the mountains with a beautiful view as well as a very welcoming and accommodating host, I strongly recommend this place. The pension is directly facing Geumdang-Mountain and the valley, and the surroundings couldn't have been more pristine and peaceful. When I asked him for some recommendations regarding local taxi drivers through this app, he offered me to pick me up from Pyeongchang station without me asking for it. Right after pick-up, he gave me a tour of the area and also took me to a fantastic restaurant serving trout sashimi (송어회) when he found out that I hadn't eaten lunch yet. He also gave me a different room with a balcony without additional charges instead of the one I had booked when I told him that I came especially for the mountain view. Throughout my stay, he did his utmost to make my stay as enjoyable as possible. The room was clean, comfortable, and very spacious for a single person. If you travel alone, I recommend you book the "Rose/Jangmi" room (장미) - because the view from the balcony was as great as promised. But next time, I will certainly come back with friends, as he offers plenty of more soacious options as well as to grill for your bbq if you bring your own meet. While you should bring your own food, you can also buy water, beer and makgeolli from him for reasonable prices.

Due to being a pension in the midst of beautiful mountains, coming with your own car makes things much easier. But I had akso no issues using taxis to get to Pyeongchang station and back, and from there to use public transport to get to the popular destinations as i.e. Odaesan National Park.

The owner and host was SO nice and very communicative. The setting was great.

None. Bed was standard Korean - so a little hard for Western standards.

very clean and the host was really helpful

the bed is not comfortable

It’s got a fantastic view of the mountain. The owner is very friendly,speaks English and accommodating. He even let me use laundry facilitates no charge. You can even bbq here and he will help you with d pit. When I arrived it was night time with no food and he gave me food supplies to cook at no charge. The town area is a bit of a distance but he will wither drive you there or help you call a taxi. I stayed there a week to get away from hustle n bustle of city n Seoul and absolutely enjoyed myself.

I got the ground floor unit by the main building so when other guests walk or make noise it’s a bit if noise. Not a problem when you get the other individual units or 2nd floor.

very nice & comfortable

you need a car to commute around here

we loved our stay at chaeul, the owner provided us with a bbq on request (25000 charcoal charge) and gave us homemade pajeon 파전 and local makgeolli 막걸리. in the evening he prepared a campfire and gave us marshmallows to toast!

some of the facilities were dated or not in use (swimming pool) but this did not effect our stay.
