It was good
Lucy, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The owner was so friendly and helpful! The bed was very comfortable. The location was great—so close to the historic center—walkable to the beautiful park, Wolji and bridge, all of these are awesome to see at night. Just walk, don’t take a taxi tour.

My family and I had a WONDERFUL stay at Yettle Hanok. Jung and his wife were lovely hosts who welcomed us, showed us a map so we could get our bearings and even offered suggested activities for the day so that we would be able to experience all the sights and experiences. We rented the entire home and found it be spacious, comfortable and clean. It was such a unique experience to stay in a traditional hanok-style home. The home is walking distance to the Gyeongju National Museum and a bus stop with buses that will take you right into town. My family loved every minute of our stay and are so grateful for the hospitality and warmth of our hosts!

Our host was really nice and kind with us, giving us a lot of advices for our trip in Gyeongju. The stay was amazing!
Jonathan, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay was wonderful. The property is lovely to stay at and comfortable. We enjoyed talking with the host about the best way to spend our time in gyeongju. He brought us a delicious simple breakfast, which was great because it has been challenging to find places open in the early hours.

10/10 Exceptional

Hosts really cared about their guests. The architecture was marvellous. Walkable or easy bus access. Would definitely stay again

Incredible Host!

Our stay here was lovely. The owner was kind and incredibly helpful — he gave us a map and directions on the best ways to see all the sights we were interested in. The rooms were spotless and the beds had heating pads, which were so cozy, as we were traveling in the fall and it was getting cool. All around a great stay — highly recommend for anyone looking for a more authentic experience unlike those you get at a regular hotel.

Friendly Host

We enjoyed our stay at the Yettle Hanok. Our host was very friendly and helpful. He communicated with us prior to our visit on how to get there, which was extremely helpful. Upon arrival he provided us with a map and overview of Gyeongju. The hanok is conveniently located across the street from the museum and is easy walking to the village. There is a bus stop close by with buses that can take you to main historical sites around Gyeongju. Our host brought us a nice little breakfast with coffee to our room each morning, and he arranged taxi pick up for us when we departed. I recommend staying at this hanok to experience a traditional Korean home during your stay.

Host was wonderful and gave us a map and layout of the town. We had access to a patio and rooftop. Even though breakfast was not included, he gave us bananas, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, bread and coffee. I highly recommend staying there for a unique hanok experience.

The host is very friendly and provided clear guidance on how to best enjoy Gyeongju in a day. The breakfast was excellent. The hanok and our room were clean and cozy. Highly recommended Yettle Hanok Stay.

10/10 Exceptional

The owner is very friendly, and tries very hard to be extra helpful - ran after me when I left a pair of glasses! It is right across from the museum and a short walk from most of sites.
Rick, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay in a traditional hanok home — very cool experience and you cannot beat this location. Walking distance to all the main sites and the host is extremely helpful and friendly. We were able to meet other guests and hang out in a friendly atmosphere. Early wake up for breakfast but that did not bother us. We really loved the city and stayed 2 nights.

10/10 Exceptional

Very friendly and very supportive hosts. The interior made with a lot of personal cosy individual touch. As guests we felt like at home. The stay in Yettle was a real pleasure. This beautiful traditional Korean house became our home for short but unforgettable stay. The location very conveniant.
Agnieszka, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

An authentic hanok with lovely, engaging owners. While the location is not really central, it is easily accessible both by bus and on foot. Some of the nice, greener areas of the city are close. We loved the surprise breakfast and the tea room.

Unique Korean experience

This was a great experience in traditional Korean housing. It was a lovely stay near the ponds and museum. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. There are a few rules and quirks to staying here and it can be noisy depending on who’s staying.
Alice, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a pleasant stay at this property. It was tidy and comfortable. The bathroom for our room was outside, which we didn't mind at all but may not be okay for everyone. Pros: - Korean style house, lovely wooden details - Great location, close to lots of attractions and bus stop. Busses are frequent. -comfortable bed. -The owner was friendly and chatty (find more information below). Gave us a map of Gyeongju and arrival and idea on what to do -lovely breakfast provided one of the days - fridge/freezer, kettle, tea, coffee provided -cute tea room Cons: - no restaurants near by, cafe next door open for very limited hours so take some snacks - lack of privacy and lots of rules to follow. Owner overbearing at times. Will do things like readjust where your shoes are, expects room door to be open during the day for air circulation, made us rush out on the day of check out So he can start cleaning (we were out by 8:15)!! I felt like I was intruding in his home but it's was great experience otherwise.

The Hanok is easily walkable to all the historical area sites to see. Host is so bubbly! He gave a good introduction to the area showing us on the map so we could get the most out of our time here. The rooms are gorgeous. Even though breakfast is not included the host prepared a light breakfast for everyone with coffee at ~8am. Perfect to start the day as nothing opens early.

Traditional Hanok Homestay

It is a classic Hanok Style House with 5 bedrooms. 4 of them have connecting bathrooms, whereas the small single person does not. I had to walk out into the courtyard, only about 15 feet away, to use my own bathroom, but it was for my own use and it was clean. It is a beautiful home and the owners, who live nearby are so friendly and welcoming. The bedroom was comfortable with a good temperature. It was clean and exactly as you’d expect a traditional style of bedroom to be. The mattress is on the floor but it has heating and was pretty thick and comfy. They provided a small but good breakfast in the morning and have a small kitchen with refrigerator for guest convenience as well as a separate tea room. It was an enjoyable stay and I would stay again if I’m ever back in Gyeongju!
Sandra, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The overall experience was good. The owner has set rules, he wakes you up at 8am and provides an unofficial breakfast (boiled egg, bread, yogurt and a coffee) which is very kind of him. You'd need to be up by then as he'll keep knocking on your door - essentially he wants you out so he can clean the place. Bathroom is a wet room, there are only hand towels, no flushing toilet paper (which wasn't an issue). There are a lot of attractions nearby and all walkable - the owner will tell you all about them and give you a map which was helpful. There is also a tea room which was nice and had green tea. You can only lock room doors in the evening otherwise it has to be open. He is very precious about closing the entrance door of the property. Gave it a low rating as our last day he got very aggy with us, with check out being at 10am, the day before he said he'd like us out by 9.50am - not an issue - but on the day he just kept rushing us and wanted us out asap. So we left by 9.30am which runied our experience.
