Gyeongbokgung Palace Reviews
Robin *****

We had such a great experience renting our hanboks here! The entire process did take a little while, but that was completely understandable since we had four people getting dressed, including a child, and it was also pretty busy when we visited.
Everyone working there was so kind, patient, and helpful throughout the whole experience. They also spoke English well enough that we had no trouble communicating, which made everything much easier.
We absolutely loved wearing our hanboks and had such a memorable experience. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to rent a hanbok while visiting Seoul! 🇰🇷

I booked a premium hanbok rental through Klook for me and my husband. Then I booked the makeup and photography through Instagram. Reservation was very easy and they were responsive on Instagram. We came in at a busy time so it was very chaotic at first but the staff were able to help me with the Hanbok fitting, hair, and makeup. The Chandeokgung palace is just a block away and that was where we met up with the photographer and had the photos taken. We only wore the costume for 2-ish hours due to the heat outside. It was a great experience and the photos turned out really great! Another plus is they have 2 really adorable and calm shop cats 🐱. I recommend this shop for Hanbok rentals.

I highly recommend the full day tour, we visited Gwajang market for a lunch break. Our tour guide Ms. Sunny was knowledgeable of the history per tourist sites, friendly and approachable! We definitely enjoyed the tour.

It was a fun experience! I love the hanbok that I chose. Despite a lot of people in the shop, the processing of renting was very smooth. The price for 2 hours was really worth it! I didn't have to stress about returning it early.

The hanboks were pretty. There were few customers when we went there so selecting your time wisely is key to have a lot of hanboks to choose from and they had assisted us promptly. Their selection for men was limited. It was a fun experience.

Great experience, we added the hair styling option and it was very nice (plus they lent us bags since we got the hair styling). A bit far from the palace (10 minutes from Gyeongbokgung, but it's an easy walk).

The store is pretty small, so make sure to arrive on time, not too early or too late! Everyone was so welcoming and friendly from beginning to end, which made the whole experience really nice. They also sent us all the photos within just a couple of hours, which was such a nice surprise! Overall, we had a great experience and really appreciated their service. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful experience with Stella as my tour guide! She is incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Korea's royal palaces and brought each place to life with her fascinating stories and insights.
As a first-time visitor to Korea, this tour made me appreciate the country's rich culture and history even more, and it definitely inspired me to come back again soon. Next time, I'll even make sure to try wearing a hanbok!
I highly recommend booking a tour with Stella. She speaks English, Japanese, Spanish, and Korean fluently, making the experience enjoyable and accessible for visitors from all over the world. Thank you, Stella, for making my first trip to Korea so memorable!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful Experience
I had a great experience and highly recommend this.
I was unfortunately late after missing a subway stop and getting lost, but the team was very understanding. The photographer was professional, friendly, and helped me feel comfortable by chatting with me during our walk to the photo locations. Since I was traveling solo, feeling shy, and had just landed that morning with little sleep, I really appreciated his kindness.
He guided my poses throughout the shoot, regularly checked if I was happy with the photos, and even encouraged me to speak up if there was anything I didn’t like. I also appreciated the extra time he spent taking additional photos.
The staff member who helped me choose my hanbok and style my hair was wonderful and very kind.
There were so many beautiful photos to choose from, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. It was one of the highlights of my solo trip, and I would gladly book again when I return w/ family or friends. 😊
