Where to Stay in Tongyeong

🔄 Updated August 2026

The best areas & neighborhoods — chosen by vibe, not just price.

Tongyeong is a harbour town of islands and murals: stay near Gangguan Port to walk to Dongpirang and the market, or over by the cable car for quieter sea-and-island views.

Gangguan Port & downtown

Harbor, food & Dongpirang

Around the Gangguan waterfront and Jungang Market — walkable to the Dongpirang mural village, the ferry piers and the famous honey-bread stalls.

📍 Best for food and sightseeing on foot; island ferries leave nearby.

Mireuksan & cable car side

Views & resorts

Near the Tongyeong cable car and the Hallyeo-waterway lookouts — quieter hotels and resorts with sweeping sea-and-island views.

📍 Good for the cable car and coastal drives; a short ride to the port.

💸 Downtown guesthouses near Gangguan are cheap and central, while resort rooms near Mireuksan cost more for the views.

Good to know

Tongyeong rewards staying near Gangguan Port — you can walk to Dongpirang, Jungang Market and the ferry terminal, and eat your way through honey bread and fresh seafood.

It's the hopping-off point for the Hallyeo islands such as Hansando, so check ferry times and book harbour-side rooms early in summer.
