Sarangroo

We loved the stay. It is a hanok, which means we slept on a futon, but I would not want it any different. The staff let us check in early and stored our luggage until it was time to leave. We received a letter translated to English on our arrival as they did not speak a lot of English. Their understanding of English was better than my understanding of Korean. Prior to our arrival, they also sent us detailed instructions for us to give the taxi driver. I hope to go back some day.

An authentic hanok stay experience. Even though the owner does not speak English, she was very hospitable and was prepared with English introduction, instructions and a map of the area.

Set right by the river of a must see area to see. Lots to see right in the neighbourhood.

Nicely run guest house. Be prepared for the traditional style futon mattress on the floor!

Beautiful space and lovely hosts.

Very nice hanok accommodation. Easy check in, nice neighborhood and easy access to the main attractions

A beautiful traditional hanok with extremely kind and friendly owners.

Sarangroo is located near the river bed - facing the main town area of Jeonju. But it is a good place to stay as it is located within walking distance to everything, so very convenient. The hanok itself was fine - the underfloor heating worked well, and the toilet was large enough, and not cramped. However, having breakfast in the open on a cold winter morning just didn't quite cut it. Nothing could be kept hot long enough due to the cold. Perhaps it would be nicer during the other 3 seasons. Overall, still a good experience, but i think 1 night is sufficient.

Although our guest spoke limited English. He had worked out what was important to his guests and had information sheets to hand in English. We would stay here again. He was kind thoughtful and helpful. You could even leave your luggage.

Great hanok stay in Jeonju. You definitely need a taxi or a car from the train station but once you’re there, the village is easy to navigate on foot. Clean facilities and friendly staff.

The property is conveniently walking distance to the Hanok Villlage. Checking in was very easy. The host and his wife were exceptionally kind and very helpful. We checked out before breakfast was served so we were a little bummed about missing out on that, but overall, I would definitely stay here again.

This is our first time staying at hanok house. Property is so beautiful, owner is nice and breakfast is provided every day. Location is also good being very close to hanok village. Please note that futon is quite thin but we got used to it the 2nd night.

Property owner was very kind and thoughtful. They put my shoes under the roof when I forgot to. It was raining next day so they saved me a big hassle. Also, they kept my luggage for me while I was out and about. I strongly recommend it.

Property was so clean and tidy! And the host was very kind. Would recommend this place to family or friends visiting Jeonju.

It was a nice hanok stay with friendly couple manning the place. They helped us settle in well and make it a welcoming stay. The room is very clean and good enough for staying in. The toilet is pretty small, so have to learn to live with it.

great place to stay, hosts were really nice.

We had a very pleasant stay at Sarangroo for 2 nights. The place was clean overall and the mini fridge in the room had a few water bottles so we didn’t have to buy water during our trip. The beddings and towels were clean and the room had enough towels for our stay. They also leave a basket outside your room in the morning to collect used towels which was nice. In the morning, they provide breakfast from 8am-10am with boiled eggs, fruits, toast, coffee/tea/juice/water. The location is perfect if you want to experience the Hanok village. The location is walkable to many tourist attractions and restaurants. It’s right next to Namcheon bridge and river, good for taking a walk/bicycle ride. We stayed during the week days and our area was generally quiet both during the day and the night. The owners were very friendly and polite. Both our check-in and check-out were quick and they called the taxi for us when we were leaving and having trouble calling one. Strongly recommend staying at this place if you want to experience authentic traditional Hanok! (I am Korean) 추석전 평일에 2박3일 남자친구와 숙박했는데 둘다 너무 만족했습니다. 전체적으로 청결하고 사장님들께서 정말 친절하십니다. 평일에와서 그런지 낮에도 시끄럽지않고 밤에도 물론 조용해서 잠자기 편했어요. 남천교와 강 바로 옆이여서 산책하거나 자전거타기 좋습니다. 경기전이나 태종로 남부시장 등 가볼만한 곳들 다 20분안에 걸어서 갈수 있을만큼 가깝습니다. 장소가 사람들 많이 다니는곳이 아닌 남천교 옆 살짝 골목 안쪽에 있어서 한적하고 조용하지만 관광명소들과 가까운 거리여서 정말 좋았습니다. 지인이 전주 한옥마을 여행한다면 추천할만큼 좋은곳 이었어요.

Great experiences for all.

Owner very friendly and helpful although can’t speak or understand English. Help us get a taxi after checked out.

The property is beautiful. It is in walking distance to the famous Hanok Village. There is also a nice scenic walking path near the property. Parking was available right by the property which was convenient.
