Pros:

The location and the design was really good, close to attractions and lots of restaurants and shops around, nice vibe especially after dark with lights on

Cons:

The bathroom - mould on windows and moist air smell, the floor was bit dirty when we put the futons, no advise on how to actually put the funtons

Pros:

The vibe is exactly what we were after, felt like a little sanctuary in the middle of the city. So beautiful and serene.

Cons:

The sleeping was super uncomfortable because you are sleeping on a wooden floor versus something like tatami. Wouldn't recommend for people who have sensitive backs or anything.

Außergewöhnlich gut
Pros:

Ruhig gelegen, in der Nähe der wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten und trotzdem ruhig gelegen. Gut mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln erreichbar. Expressbus ist besser angebunden als railway Station.

Cons:

Es gibt keine richtige Sitzgelegenheit draußen. Das wäre noch wünschenswert

Renoncez au confort
Pros:

Le cadre est très beau et vaut vraiment de détours pour quelques photos en hanboks prêtés sur place.

Cons:

Êtes vous vraiment prêt à dormir par terre ? J'ai accepté pour faire plaisir à ma femme mais la nuit a été très longue et mon dos à eu du mal à s'en remettre. C'est un peu comme du camping mais sans la nature.
Ma femme a très bien dormi elle.

Fuja dessa roubada!
Pros:

Somente a localização.

Cons:

Definitivamente não recomendo este lugar. O hotel é bonito, mas todos os outros hotéis da região também são. A primeira impressão foi péssima, pois a recepcionista foi extremamente rude.

Quando entrei no quarto, o cheiro era ruim. Péssimo acabamento. Materiais e móveis baratos. Roupas de cama e banho de baixíssima qualidade.

Cama e colchões ruins. Desconforto. Travesseiros ridiculamente duros e pequenos.

A localização é o único ponto positivo do lugar, e o preço é muito alto.

Todos os funcionários que nos atenderam foram muito antipáticos.

Estou deixando esta avaliação para que outros viajantes, principalmente ocidentais, não caiam na cilada.
Reclamar lá não adianta, já que não pretendo voltar nunca mais. Há muitas opções de hospedagem melhores nas proximidades, limpas e sem cheiro ruim.

Se prezem seu dinheiro e conforto, não fiquem lá. Truque de disfarçar uma espelunca de Hanok experience. Ah Inteligência Artificial que me sugeriu esse pulgueiro, você me paga!

Pros:

Hôtel bien situé et personnel présent, expérience en hanoc intéressante mais aucune isolation dans les chambres, de ce fait si vos voisins sont bruyants, bon courage pour dormir.

Great potential, could be improved
Pros:

Traditional Hanok in a great location, good cultural feel to the courtyard and area. Rooms looked great

Cons:

Bathroom was unclean, had hairs from others. Pillows perhaps were traditional (bean bag) but a modern option would have been good. We had a awful smell in our room that could have been sewage, not sure where it was coming from

A memorable stay in a beautiful traditional setting, worth the experience.
Pros:

Unique and welcoming property — staying in a traditional Hanok village in Gyeongju was a genuinely special experience. Great location and very atmospheric.

Cons:

Cleanliness and staff could be a notch above, but overall nothing major.

Esperienza autentica
Pros:

Ho soggiornato presso Hwangnamguan Hanok Village per una notte e, nel complesso, è stata un'esperienza molto positiva e autentica, ideale per chi desidera vivere l'atmosfera tradizionale coreana.
La struttura è davvero bellissima: gli hanok, il cortile interno e l'architettura tradizionale creano un ambiente suggestivo. La sera, con le luci accese e la tranquillità del luogo, l'atmosfera diventa ancora più magica. Dalla finestra della nostra camera avevamo una splendida vista sul cortile.
La posizione è eccellente, all'inizio della strada principale e a pochi minuti a piedi dalle principali attrazioni di Gyeongju. Abbiamo inoltre apprezzato la possibilità di lasciare i bagagli prima del check-in, in quanto le camere vengono rese disponibili tassativamente nel pomeriggio.
Lo staff è estremamente gentile, disponibile e anche simpatico, contribuendo a rendere l'esperienza ancora più piacevole.
Abbiamo soggiornato in una camera tripla un po' troppo piccola. Anche il bagno è in stile tradizionale coreano, senza una vera e propria doccia separata, un aspetto che potrebbe non essere comodo per tutti.
Nonostante questi piccoli dettagli, il soggiorno è stato molto piacevole. Dormire sui futon tradizionali stesi a terra e utilizzare i tipici cuscini coreani è stata una bella esperienza, e sorprendentemente abbiamo dormito benissimo. Consiglio questa struttura a chi vuole vivere un'esperienza tradizionale durante una visita a Gyeongju.

Cons:

Abbiamo soggiornato in una camera tripla che, purtroppo, è risultata piuttosto piccola. Fortunatamente viaggiavamo solo con degli zaini, perché con valigie grandi lo spazio sarebbe stato davvero limitato. Inoltre la porta della camera non si chiudeva perfettamente e durante la notte le correnti d'aria l'hanno fatta aprire leggermente, causando qualche spiffero a chi dormiva vicino all'ingresso.

Amazing, but could use some work
Pros:

The hotel was incredible, so beautiful and it was an amazing experience. Ten staff was very helpful and I would say that the hotel itself is in a perfect location.

Cons:

The rooms were very dirty.

Pros:

The location is super convenient! Staff friendly! Has parking. The washroom are pristine looks absolutely renovated! The premises is beautiful! Weirdly the ondol bedding was convenient. I opened the windows and had such a blissful sleep!

Cons:

The condition of the room! The walls really need to be painted! And I the quilt was sooo colorful. It was putting off

Prachtig! alleen slapen op futon is een vaardigheid
Pros:

Echt een sprookje, zo mooi. Kamer zelf klopte wel met de prijs en was eenvoudig maar past bij de experience. Goed mooi gerund hotel. Overal is aan gedacht. Betere locatie bestaat niet. Ligt tegenover de tombes. Gratis hanbok te leen.

Cons:

De futonbedden slapen voor geen meter. Je ligt op de grond. Heb er een extra gevraagd en toch nog OK geslapen. De locatie is op NAVER echt niet te vinden. Het Koreaanse adres is niet goed naar Engels vertaald. Gelukkig reageerden ze binnen een minuut na mailen het koreaans adres. Beter dit adres kopieerbaar te maken in Booking app of naar gasten te mailen. Zoek op Miffi cafe, zit ernaast. Geen van de adressen in deze wijk is op Booking te vinden.

Belle expérience! Superbe emplacement et extérieurs magnifiques
Pros:

L’emplacement, les bâtiments et le jardin, la salle de bain moderne

Cons:

Le matelas fin et les oreillers durs, mais j’étais au courant au moment de réserver.
Le logement n’était pas complètement propre: un tube de dentifrice usagé retrouvé à terre dans la salle de bains, un gros insecte mort dans la chambre

Pros:

The place is beautiful and perfectly located

Cons:

The rooms are quite old and the walls are dirty. The floor mattresses are very thin. Considering what we paid for (the most expensive stay in our 2 week trip) prob not worth it. Its a very rustic stay and for a low price maybe worth trying. But if you are looking for a traditional experience I would have gone somewhere else.
