Sokcho Marinabay Hotel Accommodation Sharing

Check-in date: 2023/4/7 – 2023/4/9

This time I stayed at the Marinabay Hotel near the Expo Tower in Sokcho City. The rich man felt that this area is a lively place in Sokcho City. There are many BBQ restaurants near the hotel. emart(laugh). The distance from the hotel to "Xiangyang Passenger Terminal" is about 13 kilometers, and the taxi fare can be referred tothis article. But then I thought about it. In fact, from Seoul to Sokcho, you should take a direct ride to Sokcho Passenger Terminal. This can save you a lot of taxi fare, so I will pay attention next time. This time I booked a triple room through trip.com. The price for two nights without breakfast was NT$5,449. It is a pretty affordable hotel. It is highly recommended by rich people!

The air conditioner cannot be used during the rich man’s stay, but the local temperature in Sokcho is also around 10 degrees, so there is no need to turn on the air conditioner. It is important to protect the environment and love the earth! There is a GS25 convenience store on the first floor of the hotel. There is also an emart nearby.
