A great location within walking distance of historical sites in Gyeongju. Staying here made the experience even better. The staff are great and welcoming. Sleeping on a heated floor was a first for me. It won't be my last - I felt like I was sleeping on a full length heating pad - wonderful after a long day of walking!

This was a great and unique experience. The washroom was simple but clean. It seemed like a relatively newly renovated location with a small divider between the shower area toilet so upon showering, not the full washroom was wet. They were able to store my luggage when I arrived into the city early and were very helpful in showing me my accomodation and explaining what is available through the hotel. The entire hotel was beautiful, especially at night.

We enjoyed it!

Very nice hotel in a very good area, a little bit far from the station but with the Korean public transportation being very efficient is not going to be a problem to reach the location. The whole establishment is amazing and the STAFF is friendly and helpful. Room was immaculate we book again if back in Gyeongju for the great experience!

A opportunity for a traditional stay

A great experience to stay in a traditional Hanok House. We did choose the bed option but the space was wonderful as we had two spaces plus a bathroom. We had everything we needed and fresh towels were provided daily. They also offer free Hanbok rentals but we didnt get time to use this.
