"If you are looking for a stay local to the hanok village but not in a traditional hanok this is a great option. Hotel appeared brand new with public areas and room in pristine condition. Hotel also offers a cafe and restaurant which was very useful. Hotel is located just a 15min drive away from the hanok village and easily reached by taxi. It was a very comfortable stay "

"A great location within walking distance of historical sites in Gyeongju. Staying here made the experience even better. The staff are great and welcoming. Sleeping on a heated floor was a first for me. It won't be my last - I felt like I was sleeping on a full length heating pad - wonderful after a long day of walking!"
