The room was a bit small but cozy, and overall, it was a very good experience for all of us. The kids really enjoyed sleeping on the futons. It took the adults a little time to get used to them, but it ended up being a very memorable stay. Breakfast was brought to our room, and we enjoyed leaving the door open to eat while taking in the quiet morning atmosphere. The location is great—just a short walk from Anguk Station and still manageable even with luggage. We loved being able to walk around the neighborhood, which is full of shops and restaurants. We would definitely recommend staying here if you're looking for a wonderful traditional Korean-style accommodation. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/823f7ce7-c0d3-47aa-b005-7194721c5ce6-1750254703189.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### GinNee Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Peter 24 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Not a traditional hotel by any means, but very traditional South Korean guest house. The Korean breakfast was fantastic. A bit hard to find. ##### Peter Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### michelle 24 Sept 2025 First off, good luck getting a taxi that can actually find this place. The taxi dropped me off and then I spent an hour trying to locate the place on foot. It ended up being a 25 minute walk to the other side of town with all my luggage in tow on a hot and sunny day which was very unpleasant. Once I arrived, check in was easy. The accommodation was very basic which I didn’t mind because I only needed a place to sleep for one night. The shower leaked water all over the sleeping area even though the shower door was closed so I had to use my towel to mop it up. Then when I finally laid down to go to sleep, I woke up to my blankets, floor mattress, and phone charging cord being soaking wet due to the air conditioner apparently dripping water at fast pace. ##### michelle Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrew J 6 Aug 2024 #### Pretty good Generally a good stay. Great breakfasts, friendly hosts, wonderful location. We'd do it again. Not for everyone though. Our room for 5 was very tight and the AC drained directly on to the bathroom floor. With some tidying up and care, this could really be a first rate stay, esp. given its location. If you don't mind a somewhat barebones experience with a good breakfast, go for it. ##### Andrew J Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Donnalee 1 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This accommodation is traditional Korean lodging style with only a comforter (some has stains) as a bedding which is hard for those not used to hard sleeping surface. The floor is heated though. Air conditioning is available. The space is small for 4 people with luggages. The Korean breakfast is great and served at 8 am. The location is close to many restaurants (even Michelin rated) and walking distance to Gyeongbokdung palace and train stations. ##### Donnalee Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Joanna 3 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Overall our stay here was nice.

The owner speaks rudimentary English. Not super friendly people. The morning ethnic food is tasty but no changes to accommodate with allergies or food preferences. The place could be much better if they clean up and organize the centre courtyard to be nicer. Sleeping on floor with a thin mattress was ok but not super comfortable. Very near centre of Bukchon Hanbok village. Very walkable area. Lots of restaurants, cafes and shops nearby. ##### Tinh Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Janice 13 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a traditional style hanok building with sliding paper/wood doors and an open roof atrium in the centre. Our room had low ceilings about 6ft high. The floor cushion/mattress is a 3-4 inch padded mat so it’s not as soft as a western style mattress. The air conditioner worked great even in the 30degree Celsius rainy weather we had. The pillows were Korean style cylinders filled with rice. The breakfast was delicious. We were given 8 side dishes, rice and bean sprout soup, which had an amazing broth. You sit in your room at a low table on the floor for eating which was brought to our door at 7:30am. The room itself locked from the inside but not the outside. It’s located right in the middle of a very cute and walkable neighbourhood filled with cafes, Photo Booth studios, shops and restaurants. You cannot drive up to the door, you need to walk about 50 metres around the corner. Shampoo, conditioner and bar soap was provided. Medium sized towels were provided but no bath towels. Importantly, the washroom was a Korean style no-bathtub situation, with a drain in the floor and a removable shower head. Me and my sister really enjoyed this authentic experience, we are able to sleep on the floor. By the way it’s not sound proof but our neighbours were quiet so we slept well. The shared lobby area had many items stored there like extra cases of food and buckets and watermelons. It is not wheelchair accessible. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4cacb340-e817-45f6-b8f7-d21df09aef82-1755099182898.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/50ca034e-afd3-4215-84e1-d19950bcdced-1755099182542.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/71748e63-b911-412c-b22f-9d23588783ab-1755099183599.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Janice Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelley 1 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing experience This is an absolutely amazing place. It it tucked away in the middle of the Hanok village area and is within walking distance of the Changdeok Palace and Insadong. It was a perfect place for all of our activities. The hospitality of the staff is beyond amazing. From carrying your bags in, to accommodating arrival times While the site mentions their breakfast, it does not being to describe the experience. At around 8am you slide open the doors to your area and are presented loaded trays of freshly made traditional Korean foods to start your day. The soups and food are prepared in the courtyard. Our 2nd morning was chilly and the amazing gukbap soup was far better than a cup of coffee to get us started. There is also filtered water in the courtyard and the location is right beside 2 restaurants with multiple others and continence stores minutes away. On the comfort level, this is a Hanock, which means there are not beds. There are traditional sleeping mats and blankets. We were in the deluxe and a bit surprised of the actual size (about 6ft by 12ft in the main area. This may be an adjustment for some western travelers. We did have some struggles with luggage and getting settled in at night with 4 people and some large bags. We will get the larger room on our next visit. Temperature wise, we were very comfortable even though it was fairly cold. The bathroom also had a heated floor and was larger than other Korean hotels I've stayed in. Loved our visit! ##### Shelley Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### KUBO 1 Jan 2026 Liked: Cleanliness 設備に関しては、手洗い場で水を流すと床から水が漏れ出して靴下がびしょびしょになった。よって次からは必ずスリッパを履くようにしたこと以外は特に問題なかった。あと6人部屋スイートルームでしたが業務用の大きい冷蔵庫が置いてあり部屋が狭く布団は少し大きめだったが3枚しか敷けず雑魚寝のような感じで6人寝た。床暖房がついていて部屋はとてもあたたかく快適だった。朝食はスープが日替わりで3日間とも違うものだった。他のおかずは同じ。宿泊代からするとこの設備で朝食付きはとても良い。宿の隣のしゃれたアイス屋さんは値段は高いけど美味しい。立地は安国駅から徒歩10分くらいの場所。明洞や南大門、東大門に行く時には1回乗り換えが必要だけど距離は短いので苦にはならなかった。3泊でしたが部屋の掃除等はなかったがタオルを替えたりゴミ袋を替えたりは自分から伝えれば快く対応してくれた。 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c3754c3f-2c71-41a4-9d2b-f0b9cfaca060-1767275645279.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### KUBO Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### ANA 29 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Habitación acogedora, me sentía como en casa y a pesar que era temporada de frío, la habitación estaba caliente. ##### ANA Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### tsugumi 4 May 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 3泊しましたが、途中でゴミ捨てや掃除もして欲しかったです。 ##### tsugumi Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 25 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities 방은 따뜻하고 좋았는데 화장실에서 냄새가 너무 많이났고 화장실문도 닫히지 않아서 불쾌했습니다. 방음이 잘안되는데 옆방소리때문에 잠자기 불편했어요. 주인분은 미리 손님들에게 소음에 관한 내용을 분명히 주의를 주셔야겠습니다. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### MIKA 27 Oct 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### 家庭的な韓屋でした 安国駅からレトロな街並みを少し歩き細い路地に入ったところにあります。 途中で迷ってスマホを見ていると親切な韓国人のお姉さんが案内してくれました。 玄関の木のドアを開けると写真で見るより狭い感じがしましたが、韓屋にテンション上がりました！ お部屋はスーツケースも広げられたし、良いお部屋でした。 シャワーとトイレは一体で床は濡れますが、想定内だったので問題なし。 韓国旅行時は捨てるタオル持参必須！ 完璧なバストイレを望む方はやめ た方がいいです。 このような環境を楽しむ人向け。 豪に入れば郷に従えで楽しいです。 景福宮まで歩いて行けるし、仁寺洞散策も出来るし、とにかく便利な場所です。 オンドルが入っていて暖かかったですが、寝る時はやや暑く感じたのでエアコンで温度調節しました。 快適です。 朝ごはんは7時半にビビンバが来ました。 美味しかった〜！ ウォーターサーバーも調理場の前にあり。私たちの部屋に冷蔵庫はなし。 チェックアウト後、観光に行く間のスーツケースは預かってくれました。 無口なアジョシ、たまの笑顔が優しかったです。 ##### MIKA Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 4 Sept 2023 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Keine Hanok-Erfahrung.
