We were able to stay at this guesthouse in April 2012. It was fairly easy to find, a short 15 minute walk from the main street and transit. The building manager was friendly and helpful. She was from Taiwan and spoke really good English. The bathroom is what I expected, just a small space with very little room for a... More

The 3-night stay at Bukchon guest house was a big disappointment. First, when we booked, they did not tell us that they were going to put us up in a different house than the one that was conveniently located in the Bukchon village. Second, the room was basic and tacky with sliding doors that made a lot of noise. When... More

We stayed at Bukchon Guesthouse for 6 nights at the beginning of our journey. It is located smack bang in the middle of Bukchon, a fantastic location besides the Royal Palace full of beautifully restored Hanoks, cafes shops and galleries. We loved walking this area and exploring the side streets. The Guesthouse itself is nicely laid out, with about 6... More

I believe that my stay at Bukchon was brilliant. It is the highlight of my second visit to this beautiful stay and staying at this cozy, lovey and family like place for 4 nights would add my happiness and pleasure while in Seoul. 10 minutes walk to the Anguk Station, it is located in the heart of Bukchon area, and...

I stayed for 3 nights at Bukchon Guesthouse 1 in mid-July 2012 in a single room. No attached bathroom but no issue as the bathroom was just next door. I've been to Seoul many times before but never stayed in a hanok before and wanted to experience this for once. I decided that it might be better to try hanok... More

We stayed at the Bukchon Guesthouse 1 on 19 & 20 May 2012. It was the only room with an attached bathroom. The rest of the rooms have to share a common bathroom. We arrived at 7 30 am, the owner was kind to let us rest at the common kitchen while we waited for the room to be cleaned... More

As it was our 1st trip to Seoul, we decided to stay in a traditional Bukchon home from April 26 until May 1. The house we chose was the Bukchon Guest House #2 (http://www.bukchon72.com/eng_06.php?sub=1), located at 15-3 Gyedong 4-gil Street, where the owners also lived. As there were 7 of us in the group, we booked all available 3 rooms.... More
