stanloonaAn amazing once-in-a-lifetime hanok experience!! The place was absolutely beautiful, and our host was the kindest person ever. Their service was amazing, even providing us with a bottle of wine, and free breakfast even though it originally didn’t come with our booking. We visited Gyeongju for 3 nights during the windy winter of February, so some of the pros & cons may not be applicable for other seasons:
Pros:
- Amazing location: right in the heart of Gyeongju’s trendy hanok district, it is a few minutes walk from Hwangnidan-Gil street, Cheonmachong etc. Despite this district being absolutely PACKED in the weekend, our hanok was tucked in a more cozy, quiet corner, above a restaurant. It was then really quiet in our hanok, and we surprisingly didn’t have any problem of smells from the restaurant downstairs coming up into our rooms.
- Clean aesthetic that perfectly balances the vibes of a traditional hanok, and a modern hotel. Suitable for those travelling with older families, for example, who may not be able to sleep comfortably on hard floors. The interior designer for this hanok deserves a raise
- Floor heating was done well, and we didn’t feel cold at all despite the winds at night during our winter stay
- gigantic TV
- host was very kind and easy to communicate with via WhatsApp!
- appreciated that the toilet and shower were very clean and modern as well!
Cons:
- there weren’t any wardrobes, and not many hangers were provided to hang your clothes. It’s only a minor issue, since we had more coats for our winter wear. However, since most people are booking this hanok for short stays, it shouldnt be a big issue either
- as we came here via car at night, the parking lot assigned to us was a ~2min walk away from the actual hanok, so it was a bit confusing to locate the parking lot and hanok in the dark at first.
- at night, the winds in the winter get quite strong, and so like any wooden house - there will naturally be quite a bit of sound like the wooden door shaking, sound of wind etc. Coming from the city, we were a bit scared and thought there were intruders at first LOL. This isn’t a big problem (especially during less windy seasons), but I think it’s just worth keeping in mind, especially if you are very sensitive to sounds when sleeping.
If these cons aren’t applicable or big issues for you, then yes I would more than recommend this hanok stay!!! It’s a rare experience, and hence worth the money imho!

Ben®Super clean and spacious new villa in Hanok style.
It's a bit out of town, but main attractions easily accessible with a car.
Check-in was a bit difficult as we had no Korean number and communication was only possible in Korean. In the end a friendly worker helped us by calling the owner. Thanks again for his help.

The room service chicken was really delicious, and there was a sauna, so I could come back every day and relax in the sauna. The breakfast had a lot of options and the view was great, so overall it was a satisfactory hotel. I will come back again when I come to Gyeongju!

The hotel was overall okay for a short stay. The room was reasonably clean and had the basic amenities needed. The staff was polite and the check-in and check-out process was straightforward. While nothing stood out in particular, everything worked as expected. It is a suitable option if you are looking for a simple and practical place to stay.

Guest UserThe room far exceeded my expectations in every respect! I loved the decor inspired by traditional Korean aesthetics. However, there was a slight issue with flooding, as water sipped through the cracks from the shower onto the wooden floor of the bathroom area even with the shower door shut. Although this did not cause much discomfort, I am concerned about the long-term effect this may have on the beautiful wooden floors! The light switch for the cupboard was genuinely hard to find; I had to call the front desk after 11 p.m. to figure out how to turn it off so I could go to sleep. Since I was on a conference trip, I spent most of my time in the room preparing my presentation, and the tables and chairs were clearly not designed with business travelers in mind. Finally, I found the pillows surprisingly flimsy and regretted not bringing my own. For casual travelers looking only to relax, however, this is a truly outstanding hotel. These are minor blemishes on an otherwise great experience, and I'm leaving these comments only in case the staff is interested in making an excellent stay even more exceptional.

It was my second time staying here. The hostel is walking distance from places like Daereungwon. Gyeongju Golden Street is also nearby with lots of restaurants. The hostel provides an electric blanket. There are indoor shoes to use, as well as separate slippers for the shower inside the bathroom. There was shampoo and bodywash, but no conditioner. It was self check-in, with names written on a note with a keycard and instructions. Other guests were also polite. The bedding was clean, smelled normal.

ilhammassuriThe hotel is located outside the city; the nearest bus stops are 1.7 km away. A car is essential if you're traveling with children. Otherwise, the hotel itself is very clean, the rooms are spacious, and it has a spa and pool – ideal for family holidays. The location is also very quiet, with plenty of countryside. The owner is incredibly kind and friendly.

There's an electric car charging station.
It is stated that breakfast is provided.
However, the breakfast is very poor.
It's not managed and messy.
Breakfast is a toast that seems to be barely given because I don't want to provide it to the guests in the snack noodles.

I arrived in the morning and called to drop off my luggage.
I couldn't see the owner or staff.
(I called twice: once to drop off my luggage, and once to ask about my room number when I checked in.)
The phone number is on the sign at the entrance to the hanok.
If you go into the lounge at the back of the building, there's a baggage storage area(?) where you can leave your luggage. I was worried I might lose it,
but they said they'd never lost anything before,
so I trusted them and dropped my luggage off.
I was so relieved to find my luggage still there when I checked in at 3:10 PM.
I had a great night's sleep in room 102.
The room was warm and clean thanks to the ondol (Korean-style heated floor).
The only downside was that there was no mini-fridge,
and there was no Wi-Fi in the room (the common lounge does).
You can use the water purifier in the lounge.
Breakfast is provided, but I checked out at 9 AM because of the morning bus schedule.
I had a great night's stay in a clean place.
Thank you.
