We are family of four and all of us enjoyed this special opportunity to stay in one of this Korea Traditional Bukchon House for 2 nights. We booked a room with private toilet, it was clean and neat, and spacious enough to open our suitcases. There’s minibus service that stops in front of the house, which takes you to and fro the nearest metro Anguk station. Otherwise it’s about 8mins walk to Anguk station from the house. Gyeongbokgung is within walking distance from the house, there are many nice cafes and shops to visit on the way. The hosts are a pair of old couples who are very friendly and helpful. The can communicate in Mandarin and even teaches us some simple Korean languages! They make us Kimbap and Korean Pancake as breakfast, which were very tasty!

사장님 내외분께서 아주 친절하게 따뜻한 분위기를 조성해 주셔서 잘 자고 갑니다. 성균관대 수험생 수시 논술 준비에 교통편에서 아주 편리했습니다. 감사합니다 ~

방도 뜨끈뜨끈하고 너무 친절하게 대해주셔서 잘 쉬다 왔습니다ㅎ 조식도 맛있게 잘먹었습니다ㅎ

We are a family of three adults staying in the family room. The room is spacious and comfortable. We were able to open all three of our suitcases and still have rooms to move around. The heated floor is very warm and made the room very cozy. A traditional Korean breakfast is included and all the ingredients are homemade by house mama. We stayed two nights and different dishes were served each morning. Both house mama and house papa are very friendly and hospitable. They taught us about Korean culture and the Korean alphabets even though there is language barrier (Google translate is your best friend). They also lent us hanbok (traditional Korean clothing) to wear and take pictures inside the guesthouse. They even pose with us and took pictures with us. Their hanbok are nicer and fancier than many of the ones we saw for rent on the streets. there is an option to rent the hanbok for visiting the palaces but we opted to just take pictures inside the guesthouse. Overall, we had an excellent experience staying at Bukchonmaru. The walk from the subway station is direct and easy and brightly lit at night. We would recommend Bukchonmaru to anyone looking for a cultural experience and some great homemade Korean breakfast. One thing to note is that the guestrooms are on the upper level and there is no elevator. It took some lifting but we had no problem moving our three suitcases up the stairs and into the room. Our stay at Bukchonmaru made our first visit to Seoul extra memorable

Super cute and clean traditional Korean house!! I was a little bit afraid that I need to share the bathroom with stranger when I book my room. Turned out the bathroom is super clean and it is easy to keep it dry after shower. The duvet and mattress is even cleaner than most of the 3 stars hotel I had stayed!! On top of all these, I love the grandma and grandpa from ben

To get to the stay you will passby many shops which is a very nice walk. Located somewhere up slope and able to view the landscape view of the hanok village. Accomodation provide a chance for you to try on the hanbok.

We wanted to stay in the heart of Seoul and were pleased with the location. We also wanted an authentic experience and we certainly got it: from the decor to the meal, purely South Korean.

We had a great Hanok Stay and even tried on the Hanbok available. Thanks for the great hosting.

This B&B is a proper hanok building with all its charm and coziness. The family who runs the place is very friendly and helpful, even though not all of them speak english. The place is located on the upper part of the neighbourhood, within walking distance from one of the palaces and from Insa-dong. The area offers plenty of choice for quality restaurants and cafés. The breakfast served at the B&B is lovely, cooked from fresh and changes every day. The rooms and breakfast area have heated floor which is quite nice on cold nights. The place is clean and neat and the only negative aspect is the smell coming from the bathroom at times - but it's a feature of the whole neighbourhood rather than the B&B. Overall it was a great, relaxed experience and a place I would recommend to others. https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g294197-d3595091-r364826826-Bukchonmaru_Hanok_Guesthouse-Seoul.html#

We had a great stay here - 3 nights. Breakfast was excellent and staff very friendly. Would recommend staying here. Rooms were super clean and so was the shared bathroom.
