Laon Hanok Gguljam

Rooms are tight for a family of 4. Location is great, but the hotel is hard to find. Clearer directions and parking options would be really helpful as there is not available parking at the property. Breakfast is very limited, but the cafe facilities are very nice.

Cosy small room for one-night stay. More suitable for backpackers. Would be better if can provide kettle for hot water in the room.

very good

The Laon Hanok Gguljam is a great place to stay. It is walking distance to the major attractions. Breakfast is offered in a separate room. You have to prepare it yourself as usual in Korea. You carry your tray to your room and return it after breakfast. Then you have to wash up your dishes. The staff is friendly. The even drove me to the station when I left.

Called to check in - patron said no English and hang up, had to get staff at our Seoul hotel to call them on our behalf. Weather was warm but the underfloor heating was switched on full making sleeping the in the room impossible. Security on front door was via keypad _ security on side door consisted of a spoon to hold the lock shut and nothing else. We were there for 3 nights - bin provided for the toilet waste was never changed/emptied. Looks good on pictures but reality is somewhat different :(

Tiny room with tiny bathroom. Bad smells around, lots of mosquitoes there.

Smaller room than photo, uncomfortable bed(too thin futon), noise from upstairs

Room as promised. Amazing location

It was a good stay. Nice coffee in the morning. The parking was a bit weird though. We bought a parking coupon that didn't work so we ended up paying 36,000 won which was less than ideal. Perhaps directions and clear instructions on parking can be sent ahead of time.

Pro: Is located in the Hanok village. It was really convenient and there’s a coffee shop above and you get a discount for staying at hotel. The view is spectacular. If you’re looking for a korean style stay this is it. You will be sleeping on the floor with very soft blankets. The owner was very friendly as well. A small Community kitchen-net is available if you need to get water or out items in the fridge. Cons: No parking. The garbage cans were not properly wash and it smelled like poopoo from other people because they place their toilet there and hotel do not place plastic bags in them. Rooms are very tiny. Also, just an advice if you suffer from back problems do not stay in this kind of hotels. You will be miserable at night time. But overall it was a good experience

The room is really comfortable And cosy despite being a little bit small. Overall we had a good 2 night rest. Floor is equipped with thermal heater to keep us warm during winter. Owner was really nice and provided a simple breakfast for us in his cafe. Although we reached the hanok very late at night after our flight + express bus, the owner waited for us to check in.

This Hanok is extremely well located, right in the middle of the Hanok Village. It is a beautiful property, the rooms are small but it was as expected when you stay in this type of properties.

Located in a small lane, it was convenient and has the basic things you need. We stayed for 2 nights there and everything was fine. They have a heater installed if you feel cold, you can just turn it on. We turned if off after awhile and the floor was kept warm till the next morning. There is also can individual aircon installed in the room so you can turn it on if you feel hot. Toilet was kind of small but just right for 2 person. The boss was really nice, explained the things we had to take note of and there is also simple breakfast provided at their cafe just above the rooms. Would be a little troublesome if you have heavy/large luggages as you have to lift it up the platform of the room. Everything was good and we enjoyed our stay as a whole!

Everything is as advertised. We are very happy with the stay. There is a shared kitchen where we can prepared late night snack - ramen.

Didn't get a chance to stay in this hanok in the end as the heater was faulty on the day we arrived. So Mr Liu booked another Hanok for us instead.

Great location, but just beside a main road, so you will hear trucks and buses at night if you sleep with the inner door opened. We went with our 5-year-old and the location and facilities were great for our needs. Room is a bit smaller than a regular hotel though, there was just enough room for our 2 medium-sized bag packs, and we stayed only a night. Will stay there again if we go back to Jeonju.

The property is beautiful and located in a fun area.

The owner was friendly, but this is not a hotel so don't expect someone to answer to your needs anytime. We checked out in the morning around 7 am and there was nobody to answer or confirm the check out, and no one was there to help us call a taxi. The room was not big, I would say it could house up to two people but no more than that.

I think May is a good month to stay in the Hanok. Although the property has A/C, which you will need it at night if you prefer to sleep with your doors closed, during the day it's so comfortable to sit near the door and just let the sun shine in. Laon is also very close to the main streets of Hanok village, so you can get around very easily. The hosts are very nice people and their cafe on the rooftop is just perfect to start/end your day at. I really enjoyed my stay there. One small suggestion - if you can place a small water bottle in each room so that the guest can help themselves with the water in the kitchen.

Lovely owner and a unique experience. However, had a lot of trouble locating this place as it shows up differently on all maps as Raon Hanok Kkkuljam. Cab drivers all had no idea how to get there either as there are so many! Perhaps in future a pre-arrival email/contact will help foreigners find the place.
