The hanok is gorgeous, clean, and comfortable! It is so close to Gyeongbokgung Palace, shops, and restaurants. The heated floors work wonderfully and the overall ambience exceed my expectations. Our stay allowed us to experience living in a normal neighboord which is exactly what we wanted.

A charming traditional house, immaculately clean and just steps from major palaces, museums and public transport. In a neighborhood of trendy coffee shops, bars and restaurants. A great base for our family of 5.
The hanok was exactly as described and we loved it! It was clean, spacious, and well stocked with everything we could need. The location was wonderful and the perfect spot to explore Seoul. We would definitely stay here again.

A great place to stay, though a little on the small side for our family of 4 (we knew this before as I'd spoken to them prior to booking). Great location, easy walk to public transport and lots of food options. Would thorougly recommend.
This beautiful Hanok is in a really great location. Close to subway, Gyeongbokgung palace, a food street and market and tons of coffee shops. The home is cozy, clean and unique. The property owner was prompt to respond and answer questions. We had a wonderful stay. Highly recommended.

The place is very clean and indeed gorgeous! The host Jessica is absolutely great with communicating with us and also assisted us with getting a cab to the airport. Definitely enjoyed our stay here even though it was short. I recommend to try it out to experience korea’s traditional homes. The place is also located in a convenient area where a gs25(convenience store), cafe and popular tourist spots like the gyeongbok palace is nearby.
One week stay with my wife and 15 year old son. Just wonderful. Two bedrooms and a full basement "Netflix" room could serve as a third. The radiant floor heating took some getting used to but lends itself to a cozy warm feeling of home, especially after wandering the interesting intricate streets of Seoul in mid February. Really felt like home coming home. The pure joys of the interior design and decor was a wonder. It's not big and spacious by American standards but really highlights how much and how stylish you can live in a relatively modest space. We went sightseeing in other parts of the city but mostly enjoyed the small restaurants and cafes in surrounding Seochon neighborhood of our Hanok house.

Thank you so much, John, for sharing such a thoughtful review! It makes us so happy to hear that you, your wife, and your son felt at home in our hanok during your week-long stay. We’re delighted that you enjoyed both the cozy warmth of the floor heating in winter and the unique design and décor of the house. Seochon is indeed full of charming cafés and small restaurants, and we’re glad you were able to experience the neighborhood like a local. It was truly our pleasure to host you, and we hope to welcome you and your family back again in the future! 🙏✨
I will begin by saying that Jessica is a great property manager. She was always very responsive to any questions about the property.
The primary aspect of the Hanok that we enjoyed was experiencing a traditional home in Korea rather than just staying in a nice hotel. We also took advantage of the kitchen and washer/dryer.
There were some negative surprises. The stairs to the lower bathroom/shower are meant for someone shorter than 4 ft tall ... yes, that's 4 ft tall. No one in my family could safely go down the stairs. Also all the rooms and bathrooms were smaller than expected with little room for anything larger than a backpack.

Thank you for visiting NuileStay. We appreciate your feedback and are delighted to hear that you found Jessica to be a great property manager.
Korean traditional houses, or Hanoks, are typically not built to be very large. However, we have made efforts to provide ample bathroom facilities, with three bathrooms available for the comfort of up to four guests. When four guests each bring a 28-inch suitcase, there is adequate space to store your luggage. The main room is spacious enough to accommodate three suitcases, while the smaller room can hold one.
Regarding the lower bathroom/shower area, we understand the height of the stairs may pose a challenge as one section is about 150 cm tall. However, once you descend, the basement space opens up to about 2 meters high and is designed as a Netflix room, similar to a loft space that children often enjoy.
As a traditional Hanok, our property may not conform to modern hotel standards, but it offers excellent ventilation and the charm of beautiful eaves. While the layout may have caused some inconvenience, we believe staying in a Hanok is a valuable and unique experience. We are continuously seeking ways to improve and provide a more comfortable stay for our guests.
Thank you for choosing NuileStay, and we look forward to welcoming you again.
Best regards,
Jessica
My stay was wonderful! It was a very quiet, peaceful place. In a convenient location for two palaces
My friends had a wonderful experience in Nuile Stay and Seoul. It’s in a fabulous location near Gyeongbok palace, Daelim museum, Art Gellery, food streets, Blue house, Metro station. You can get some food and snack, drink near Super Market, convenience store 24/7 . House was very clean, cozy and warm. Rooms were large enough for 4people to stay comfortably. We were lucky to have a good weather too. And she has been a great host with very prompt replies to my enquiries. What I find really great was the amenities in the house. The floor was warmed up nicely, rooms were cosy. Beds are exceptionally comfortable. We felt very comfortable inside after coming back from the cold weather.Highly recommended for anyone looking for a place for gorgeous Korean traditional place. can't compare with other 5star hotels! Definitely, here is best than hotel.
