66-18 Okcheon-ro, Gangneung-si, Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province, onneul
ONNEUL, a charming accommodation in Gangneung,
is truly excellent for travelers on foot,
being just a 10-minute walk from Gangneung Station.
Since it's a brand-new place that just opened in July 2026,
it's incredibly clean and tidy.
What truly sets it apart from other charming Gangneung accommodations is that
it can host 2, 3, 4, or even 5 people,
making it perfect for families or group stays.
Prices may vary slightly depending on the room type, travel dates, and booking time,
so I highly recommend reconfirming before you book!
🧳 Can I store my luggage before check-in?


For travelers on foot, this is probably the most frequently asked question:
Is luggage storage available before check-in?
ONNEUL in Gangneung has lockers available, so
yes, you can store your luggage before check-in.
💡🚗 Is it okay to visit by car?
Yes! If you're coming by car, there's a parking lot, so it's perfectly fine.
Detailed parking information will be provided after booking, so no need to worry.


The room I stayed in was Room 206!
You need to enter two passwords to get in – one for the common entrance and one for the room –
which made me feel really safe, especially for a girls' trip to Gangneung.


True to its 'charming Gangneung stay' title, as soon as I entered,
the modern interior and thoughtful little details caught my eye.
First, a shot of the comfy bed 🛌

Across from the bed was a movable TV,
and it was logged into Netflix with the accommodation's account!
So I spent the whole day relaxing and catching up on all the shows I'd missed.


My room, number 206,
has a studio layout but with a clever split-level design
that subtly separates the spaces.
It's a bit hard to explain with just photos,
but this gives you a rough idea of the vibe!





Even though it's a studio, the clever space separation means that
you'll find everything you need: a vanity and mirror, a TV, and even a refrigerator –
truly all the essentials!


There's a handy mini-table,
perfect for enjoying all the delicious takeout I brought back from Jungang Market.
And since Onneul in Gangneung is just a 10-minute walk from Jungang Market,
being able to pop out for late-night snacks anytime I wanted
was definitely the biggest perk!


The toilet and shower were conveniently combined into one space,
and it was sparkling clean, not a single water stain in sight –
it really made me realize why this place is considered a brand-new gem!



Toothpaste, toothbrush, shampoo, conditioner, body wash –
with all these amenities ready and waiting for you,
you can comfortably visit with just your personal bag. Talk about stress-free travel!

Beyond your comfortable room, the inviting guest lounge is also open for you to enjoy!


With a microwave, coffee maker, and table available,
it's super useful for quickly heating up food or when you need hot water –
truly convenient!
There's also an ice dispenser, so if you need ice,
just grab it from here! 🧊 Stay cool!


And a definite must-do: make sure to try this coffee machine in the morning!
Made with Terarosa beans, you can savor a delicious, nutty Americano that's beautifully balanced without any acidity.
Seriously, the Terarosa beans here are absolutely amazing!☕️


And finally, let's talk about the outdoor terrace!
It was absolutely perfect for taking a little break outdoors and soaking in the atmosphere.
With not only private spaces
but also a cozy lounge for guests,
it was truly an ideal Gangneung accommodation where you could unwind in every way imaginable.
