鏡浦天空灣酒店

2박 3일 강릉에 머무는동안 내내 비가 왔어요. 비로 인해 자칫 여행 만족도가 확 떨어질 수 있었지만 여기에 머물렀기에 200프로 즐거운 여행이 될 수 있었습니다. 문을 열면 비내리는 바다와 철썩이는 파도 소리가 만들어내는 운치와 풍경은 밝은 날만큼 마음이 뭉클했어요. 엘리베이터를 기다리며 보는 호수 뷰 또한 엄지 척!! 호텔 자체위 연식이 좀 있다보니 살짝 낡고 유행지난 가구 느낌이 있지만 청결함과 친절함에 커버되더라구요. 간접 조명, 독서등 같은 작지만 쓸모있는 부분이 없어 아쉬웠지만 2박 3일 동안 편안한하게 잘 충전했습니다.

오래 친구 가족들과 강릉에 갔다가 스카이베이 호텔을 보고 다음 기회에 집사람을 데리고 꼭 와서 이곳에 숙소를 정해 구경을 하겠다는 계획을 실천했다. 숙소도 이곳에서의 일정도 맛집도 모두 만족한 여행이었다. 특히 하늘에서 광활한 바다를 보며 수영을 히니 정말 행복했다.^^

룸 2개 예약했었는데 1개는 좁고 답답했어요 1개는 코너룸으로 배정받아서 뷰는 괜찮았습니다 사진은 코너룸이에요 생각보다 엄청 깨끗하고 좋지 않은 느낌이라 아쉬웠네요 외관은 좋은데 내부는 그냥 그런것 같아요 조식도 가격대비 아쉬움..

레이크뷰룸이지만 코너로 배정받아 오션뷰까지 볼 수 있어 좋았어요☺️ 체크인 시간보다 조금일찍 도착했는데 얼리체크인 가능했고, 룸 청소나 세팅이 깔끔하게 되어있었어요. 주차가 힘들다는 얘기가 많았는데 평일에 가서 그런지 주차도 수월했어요. 바로 앞이 경포 해변이라 바다보며 걷기 좋았고, 도보로 가까운 다른 해변들도 있어 산책하기 딱 이었습니다🙂

Was excited because of great reviews but totally disappointed! We paid extra for package with admission to pool, gym and sauna. Got there and went to go to the midnight swim that was advertised that was supposed to be from 10-midnight and they were locking up the pool said it closes at 10 and the swim period without kids was 9-10. As for the sauna it was closed as well. We tried to go and couldn’t and when we recheck the website there was a notice about it being closed that wasn’t there when we booked it or we wouldn’t have bought that package. We saw ads for the dinner buffet online and couldn’t wait to eat there, well, that was closed as well for some inspection the entire time we were visiting. The restaurant open was the one for breakfast. Typical breakfast buffet in Korean hotels. Except the hot/cold water dispenser was out of service and they didn’t even put out hot or cold water in pitcher or anything to accommodate it being out of service. Couldn’t make hot tea or have water to drink. Options were make carrot juice in juicer or small cans of Pepsi but they ran out of Pepsi zero after the first day and I cannot drink the regular due to sugar content. So all the reasons we picked that hotel and amenities we paid extra for were not actually available. As if that wasn’t disappointing enough the room was hot as hell. We called down and they said the thermostat was internally controlled but they would let them know we wanted it cooler. After a few hours and room still hot we called again. They came up and said it’s working fine and that was the coolest setting (23.5c) and offered to bring us a fan. So we said ok at least maybe we can cool off enough to sleep. Well, they brought up a tiny desk fan that did absolutely nothing! I’ve never been so disappointed at my stay as I was here. We didn’t get to use the amenities we paid extra for and we couldn’t sleep because it was so hot. This place was a rip off! The stay was expensive and not worth the money. Would not recommend staying here at all. This is supposed to be best hotel in the area but it’s overhyped and definitely not worth the money. Just one disappointment after another.
