Cheongsong Accommodation
Sonobel Cheongsong

Hello, Global Explorers!
If you're planning a trip to Cheongsong and searching for the perfect place to stay, you've likely narrowed it down to traditional Hanok stays or the modern comfort of Sonobel Cheongsong. After much deliberation, I chose Sonobel, and I can confidently say it was an excellent decision! During my stay, I made sure to experience everything, from the delicious Sudallae Restaurant to the rejuvenating Solseam Hot Spring. I was so impressed with this resort that I've put together a comprehensive review of the rooms, the hot spring, and the dining experience for you.😀

Why We Recommend It |


✅ The Most Convenient Base for Exploring Juwangsan National Park
Juwangsan National Park is just a 5-minute drive away. This makes it incredibly easy to enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot spring in the morning before heading out for a hike, or to unwind after a day of exploring.
✅ Solseam Hot Spring: One of Korea's Top 6 'Easy-to-Find' Hot Springs
If you stay here, a visit to Solseam Hot Spring is an absolute must. As a hot spring enthusiast, I've visited many, but after experiencing Solseam, I vowed to return just for this incredible amenity.
✅ Virtually the Only Large-Scale Hotel in Cheongsong
Anyone who's researched accommodations in Cheongsong will nod in agreement. Plus, it's been recently remodeled, so everything feels fresh and clean.
✅ Walkable Dining Options
There are several restaurants conveniently located near the resort entrance, including a great local Hanwoo (Korean beef) spot. When you're staying at a mountain resort, it can be tricky for the driver to enjoy a drink with dinner. But here, having a fantastic Hanwoo restaurant right outside is a huge plus. The hotel's internal restaurant was also delicious and reasonably priced.
Solseam Hot Spring |
Solseam Hot Spring is located on the B3 level of Sonobel Cheongsong. Due to the hotel's hillside location, this floor feels like the ground level. The water is a slightly alkaline hot spring, sourced from 3,280 feet (1,000 meters) underground, rich in sulfates, calcium, and strontium. After just using shampoo, my skin felt noticeably softer and smoother – it's truly remarkable.


Operating hours are from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM. There's a cleaning time from 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM on weekdays (Monday-Friday). On Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays, the hot spring operates continuously without a break, which is great for weekend visitors.
The regular non-member price is ~$14 for adults and ~$10 for children.
Pricing Information |
As I mentioned, the non-member admission for Solseam Hot Spring is ~$14 per adult, and breakfast at Sudallae is ~$27 per person. So, if two people use the hot spring once and have breakfast once, it quickly adds up to almost ~$83. Adding this to the room rate can make it quite expensive.
However, based on a search for late September 2026 (around the Chuseok holiday), Agoda offers a 'Smart Choice' 1-night package (including buffet breakfast for 3 people) for ~$116!
The 'Sono Waterful' package, which includes two Solseam Hot Spring tickets, is priced at ~$97.
These prices are based on a Standard Family Room (~625 sq ft).
Platform | Price |
|---|---|
Room Only | ~$77 |
Breakfast for 3 Package | ~$116 |
Hot Spring for 2 Package | ~$97 |

Rooms |
We stayed in a Standard Suite, and it was fantastic – clean, spacious, and offered a beautiful view of Juwangsan. At approximately 925 sq ft, with two bedrooms (one with a double bed, one a traditional Korean ondol room) and two bathrooms, it was incredibly roomy, perfect for families or traveling with parents. The room includes one double bed and three sets of traditional Korean bedding (yo-ibul) for the ondol room.

We opted for a room type without a kitchen, which was perfectly fine as we didn't plan on cooking. If you don't intend to cook, this type is more than sufficient. The condo-style layout made unpacking easy, and the overall feel was neat and uncluttered.

Sudallae Restaurant |
For dinner, we indulged in the medicinal chicken stew at Sudallae, located on the B2 level. Did you know Cheongsong is famous for its 'yaksu' (medicinal spring water)? When searching for local eateries, you'll often find 88 Restaurant and Sinchon Restaurant praised for their medicinal chicken stew. However, since we were on vacation and wanted to enjoy a drink, we chose Sudallae within the hotel.

We paired our stew with Cheongsong Apple Makgeolli (a traditional Korean rice wine), and wow, it was absolutely delicious! The makgeolli genuinely tasted of apples, not artificial at all, and was wonderfully refreshing.


Chicken stew takes a while to prepare, so we called ahead to make a reservation. As a hotel guest, we also received a discount. The staff were incredibly friendly, making our meal a truly pleasant experience. 😊

Overall Review |
If you're still deciding on accommodation for your Cheongsong trip, I wholeheartedly recommend Sonobel Cheongsong. Its proximity to Juwangsan, the fantastic hot spring, and convenient dining options make it an unbeatable choice.

At Suldallae Restaurant, you can enjoy Dakbaeksuk (Korean chicken soup) made with Cheongsong mineral water. Since Dakbaeksuk takes a long time to cook, it is recommended to make a reservation by phone in advance. Guests also receive a discount.
