Gongsimga Hanok Guesthouse

This is a traditional Korean place. Meaning, there is no bed as you sleep on a thin mattress on the floor with one good blanket. However, it is a good experience on how the people have lived and slept before modernism has taken place. It makes you appreciate the present more. The guest will wait for you at the door when you arrive. It’s a good experience overall.

I experienced peaceful and comfortable at here gongsimga. Thank you

The properties description was completely accurate. We had a wonderful stay. The owner was very hospitable and made sure we had everything we needed. I was a litter nervous about the mosquitos because of the reviews as I am allergic but the owner keeps them well under control. If you want an authentic experience close to everything I would recommend this guesthouse.

The place was clean and welcoming and very quaint with old style architecture. The location was amazing! I would skip on the free breakfast and the bed futons were not that comfortable and so i wouldnt stay there for more than 2-3 nights

we enjoyed our stay. Our host was very friendly and helpful. Location is the best! Walking distance to many famous tourist spots

Definetely a memorable experience. I had a very comfortable stay. The owner is very nice and speaks English. The location is very close to the palaces.

We loved this guesthouse.

I would have loved to stay longer as this was a beautiful property.

really lovely traditional korean guesthouse! the property itself was clean and well-maintained, and the owners are so genuine and hospitable, taking the time to show us around even though we were only there for a night. toiletries are all provided, and they even have maps showing food around the area. it's definitely not fancy holdings, but if you're looking for a comfortable stay at a traditional hanok in a great location, this is it. will come again if i'm in the area for sure!

It was very cozy and unique experience.

The host is very friendly and helpful. I was planning for a birthday surprise for my boyfriend. The host helped to buy a birthday cake on my behalf and made the surprise a success. He recommended few places that we could visit which were nearby his guesthouse. The guesthouse is very clean and comfortable, making you feel like you are back at home. Definitely a good place to stay!

Very nice stay. Host was fantastic and very helpful. Very calm and quiet in the middle of busy Seoul. Nice experience staying in traditional Korean house that was also featured in a Kpop music video.

The best part is a home stay experience at the Korean traditional house in a very good location. And the owner is nice. But the mattress( a kind of styrofoam?) is not thick enough. The kitchen/dining room is too cluttered with many stuff. If they can replace/ improve a few things, it will be much comfortable and pleasant. Overall I enjoyed my stay! It's a good value.

Fantastic traditional Hanok homestay in perfect location for historical walking tours.

If you are into history and are looking to visit lots of palaces and museums, the location is perfect. It's a very traditional guesthouse without a ton of modern amenities, but if you are looking to experience Korean life this is a great place to do it. The owners are very nice and willing to help you out with taxis, help with food, and anything else they can do to make your stay comfortable. It is nicely located between two major palaces, with the National Folk Museum and art museums nearby as well. I highly recommend some time wandering Insadong, especially if you are there on a weekend. It's easily walkable.

Beautiful and special stay. We were a family of 5 and were very comfortable in our room. We had a small toilet/shower room in the room which was very practical. The hosts were really lovely, welcoming and helpful. Good breakfast. Great location too. Would love to go back

주변이 조용하고 위치가 좋았어요 사장님도 친절하셨어요~ 바닥이 뜨뜻해서 잠도 아주 잘 잤습니다! 다음에 또 놀러올게요^^

Homely feel, good location to visit the palaces + Anguk, Insadong areas

방이 떨어져 있어 조용히 잘 수 있었어요. 오래된 한옥인데 운치가 있어 좋았어요.

친절 깨끗
