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.

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 :)

What a lovely overnight retreat during our trip to Seoul. We were met at our taxi upon arrival, walked to our room, and briefed on everything important. The next day we received a traditional, homemade Korean breakfast of the highest quality. The room was authentic, charming, clean, and well equipped with plenty of fresh towels, tea and coffee, a microwave and refrigerator. The air conditioning worked well too. Beautiful views from every window. And, the location was perfect for exploring the ancient treasures on foot. Surrounded by many cafes and shops too. Perfect 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!

The accommodation itself was absolutely breathtaking. Staying in a traditional hanok was a truly unique experience. The architecture, the wooden details, and the peaceful atmosphere made the place feel incredibly special and authentic. Everything was beautifully maintained, and the space had a calm, almost timeless feeling that made our stay even more memorable. It’s the kind of place that makes you slow down and really appreciate the surroundings. A truly stunning and unforgettable stay.

This was a wonderful stay: the room was gorgeous; the bed was comfortable; the floor heating worked like a charm against the cold winter temperatures; the host was friendly and provided a delightful Korean breakfast; and it was generally a great experience. The hanok was located about 15 mins by foot from all of the major sites, and great restaurants were only 5 mins away
