This is an excellent traditional hotel in Gyeongju. The location is right in the middle of the old part of town and close to one of the most happening areas. It is at walking distnace from all the majour sites in the city. I thoroughly recommend it. The room is spacious and fit with everything, great space to spend some time.

Fantastic place to stay and great location. Contact before we arrived was prompt and very helpful and we were met and taken to the property. Our room was wonderful and we had a Korean breakfast each day as well. When we left we had help with the trains too as there was a nationwide problem. Highly recommended and cannot fault anything.

Exceptional hospitality in an authentic setting. Soi Hanok Stay beautifully combines Korean tradition with modern comfort. The stay was perfect and the charismatic host provided fantastic service; I was celebrated with both breakfast and sparkling wine on my birthday. A warm and stylish gem in Gyeongju, highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Soi Hanok! We planned our entire trip around staying here as we travelled to South Korea during cherry blossom season and booked relatively late, leaving only mid-week availability for 1 night. Very serene yet only a few minutes walk to some of the top attractions in Gyeongju. It rained during our time here but that added even more to the atmosphere! We were provided with complimentary breakfast too, which was superb. We couldn’t recommend a better place to stay :)

Soi Hanok Stay is an absolute dream. We had our own private entrance and outdoor seating area. The interior is straight out of a magazine - amazingly beautiful. You will need to be able to call in order to check-in as there is no “front office”, but the staff is wonderful and it was so worth it. I can’t wait to come back!
