Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Gapyeong-gun

Sowol Hanok is nestled at the end of a street with lots of cute stores. A perfect location to immerse yourself in Bukchon Village. A bonus is it is right beside a hanok cafe with traditional Korean treats. The hanok is as described in the photos. The host did an amazing job welcoming us with cold tea and sweets. Everything was pristine and ready for relaxation. The hinoki bath was the ultimte reward after a long day of walking. It’s a unique experience not every tourist gets to do. Just note the house sits on a steep incline which might be difficult for those with heavy luggages. We chose to arrive via uber taxi for convenience. Also, follow the instructions on closing the screen doors and bathroom door as there are bugs that might enter from the outside.

Such a beautiful hanok stay– peaceful, full of charm, and very well cared for. The host was kind and attentive, and the location made it easy to explore the area with great cafes and the New Balance and Adidas heritage stores right outside. A bit pricey, but the experience was unforgettable and totally worth it. Check out my TikTok for a video of the place: @allsnsagucci

친절하고 신속한 답변으로 숙소에서 편히 잘 머물다가 왔어요🙃 수영장도 너무 깔끔하고 물 깊이도 적당했어요. 숙소 들어가자마자 향도 너무 좋고 편안해지더라구요.

This was honestly a dream location. I could not have asked for a better experience. Everything was beautiful and immaculate while still feeling cozy and very much like home. Hosu is very kind and offered excellent recommendations for not only restaurants but historical sites and experiences as well. I will definitely stay here on my next visit to South Korea.

들어서자마자 아기자기한 인테리어 너무 예뻤고, 시원하게 내부 온도 설정해주시고 +음악도 틀어놔주셔서 배려에 감동했어요. 외부에는 차 마시는 공간, 책읽는 공간이 있어서 정말 좋았어요. 조용히 빗소리 들으며 책도 읽고 음악도 감상하고 차도 우려마셨습니다☺️ 남자친구가 넘 만족했어요! 아쉽게도 자쿠지랑 습식사우나는 시간이 없어서 사용하지 못했지만 그래도 만족스러웠어요. 욕실도 아기자기한 인테리어에, 향도 좋았어요. 그냥 공간 자체가 힐링이었어요..!🥺 연차내고 온 보람 max !! 침대방이 2개라 하나는 빔프로젝트 (집에서 개인적으로 가져왔어요 ㅋㅋ) 사용해서 흰색 벽에다가 쏴서 누워서 보기 좋고 하나는 침대가 엄청 크고 푹신해서 숙면하기 좋아요. 그릴 신청해서 저녁에 고기를 밖에서 구워먹었는데 너무 낭만있고 화력도 좋아서 만족스러웠습니다 ㅎㅎ 고기먹을 때 필요한 소스는 직접 가져오셔야하고, (기본 소금, 설탕 이런건 구비되어있어요) 기타 그릇 이런건 많아서 좋았어요! ㅎㅎ 차 대고 숙소를 찾는 게 조오금 어려웠는데, 안내해주신 길을 따라서 가도 좋지만, 차를 일단 약국 뒤쪽에 있는 주차장에 먼저 대서 짐을 빼고 (숙소 뒤쪽 -> 좁은 길로 그 주차장까지 통하더라구요. ) 그러고 나서 차량을 이동시켜서 주차해놓으면 좋아요! 그 공간엔 외부차량은 계속 대놓으면 안되어서요. 잠깐 대고 짐만 빼면 좋더라구요~!! 아무튼 그점만 빼면 아주아주 완벽한 숙소였답니다😆🩷 100일 기념 여행이 완벽했어용

집처럼 편안하였으며 테라스에서 산 풍경을 바라보며 상쾌한 공기를 몸 속 깊이 느낄 수 있었던 힐링 여행이었습니다. 또한 준비해주신 바베큐 장비로 가족들 모두 맛나게 고기도 잘 구워먹었습니다.

아이들과 잔디밭이 있는 숙소에서 즐거운 시간을 보냈습니다~! 쌈채소도 직접 따먹고 야옹이들도 보고~~ 행복한 추억이었어요🩷 감사합니다🩷

My wife and I stayed here for two nights in June 2025. If you are looking for a truly unique, peaceful but modern hanok experience in Seoul, you must come and stay here. Each and every furniture and amenity has been curated and carefully thought of. The local recommendations and little details provided were spot on. Our host Jee and her husband has made a space to come and and unwind any stress in a truly beautiful setting and in a neighbourhood away from the typical “tourist” areas of Seoul. This is genuine modern hanok experience - highly recommended for the discerning couple.

A very cosy and tranquil home to come back to after exploring the city all day ☺️ Some of the best coffee shops close by, a convenience store in the building, accessible public transport and beautiful interior touches. I’d stay here again.

絕對會再次入住！ 尤其房東非常的熱心，講解非常詳細，有任何問題都回覆非常快速，房源內應提供旅行需要的所有東西，完全不用擔心，真心推薦的好房源～

This is a lovely apartment in a really great area of Seoul. It was cosy, comfortable, warm and well equipped! Bruce left clear instructions for check-in and was very responsive on messages. The snacks and drinks were a lovely added bonus. I really enjoyed my week in Seoul at Bruce’s apartment and would recommend it!

Thank you we had a great stay! It’s easy to get to Myeongdong and Bukchon Hanok Village and the view is amazing

Me and my friend loved every minute here, the place is very clean and sleek with an amazing view of the city. If you’re looking for easy access to the nightlife and shopping in hongdae this place is for you. It was amazing to also have front door access to the subway station so we could get in and out quick, I absolutely recommend this place if you’re staying in Seoul.

（日本語） 素晴らしい滞在先でした。 ホストはとても親切でしたし、お部屋はとても美しいインテリアで気分が上がりました。私は長期滞在でしたが、とても快適に過ごせました！ そして、アクセスも素晴らしいです！ソウル駅から直通ですし、すぐ近くにCUやオリーブヤングも揃っています。 ホストのjiniさん、今回はありがとうございました。あなたの優しい気配りと素晴らしいセンスで私の韓国での生活は特別なものになりました。 また韓国に行く際は是非利用させて欲しいです！ （ENGLSH） It was a wonderful place to stay in Korea. The host was very kind, and the room had a beautiful interior that lifted my vibes. I stayed for a long time, but had a very comfortable stay!! And the access is great! There's a direct line from Seoul Station, and CU and Olive Young are nearby. Thank you to my host, Jini. Your kind consideration and great sense made my life in Korea a special one. I'd definitely like to use your service again when I go to Korea! Thank you.

Le logement est vraiment entre la station dongdaemun history and park station and station euljiro 4 ga. nous pouvons les joindre à pied, pour prendre la ligne 4, 5 et 2. Et juste devant l'entrée du logement, vous avez une entrée sous terraine qui permet d'éviter les passages piétons, et aller prendre la ligne de métro que vous souhaitez. La propriétaire a su être très réactive le premier jour car le lavabo de la salle de bain était bouché. Je l'ai autorisée à aller dans le logement pendant la journée pour le réparer. Je recommande.

We had such a lovely 8-day stay! It was conveniently located, close to different subway lines, airport limousine bus, and city buses, and also walkable to Myeongdong without having to live in the midst of the busy-ness. Being able to store our luggage for free when we arrived was so helpful. Our bed was comfortable, and having a water purifier spared us from having to buy water every night. Amelia was very helpful and responsive. We highly recommend this home!

My wife and I stayed here for 1 week, and it was well worth what we paid. It was very easy to get around with the metro close by, do note that it’s a steep walk to the apartment if you have mobility issues. It was not a problem for us. The air conditioner worked amazing, as did the hot water. The bed was comfortable & the lack of bedsheets was not a problem and she had this comfy pad on the bad that did not move. The one night some neighbors were loud after quiet hours, we let Kelly know and she handled it very promptly for us, which we appreciated! There’s also a great Indian restaurant nearby, and lots of 7 elevens and other convenience stores. The quality for the price is amazing for Seoul, and we definitely recommend for your next stay if you want a central and affordable place!

Great location with numerous restaurants in the area, and access to multiple subway lines as well! The place was quaint and the small touch of setting up the radio to Seoul’s classical music station was really nice. We can’t wait to come back for another trip in the future!

the location of the airbnb was absolutely perfect!! as it’s in a very quiet residential area but it is no more than a 10 minute walk away from hongdae (one of the most lively and turistic shopping areas!!) the apartment had everything needed, and the host provided all the utilities and help necessary! would 100% recommend it, i had an amazing stay

Amazing location. Not too far Away from the hongdae street (5-7 minutes away by walking). Area is quiet so i got a good rest after a whole day of sightseeing. Baba was always quick to answer to my questions and the Apartment was completely clean. I had an amazing time in Seoul and would definetly recommend this place to everybody. After staying for 3 weeks it really felt like home. Thank you so much :)

Logement petit mais agréable. quartier très sympa et animé (nombreux restaurants et cafés, commerces et marché de quartier pas trop loin. la ligne de métro est très proche donc facile de se déplacer. L hôte est très serviable et réactif, très bon contact. J ai apprécié mon séjour. L aménagement de la terrasse serait un vrai plus.

A very nice apartment, and the location is great too!! If I’m going to Korea again I would like to stay in this Airbnb again!

nice have some some amenities provide eg soap, clothes washing liquid etc. made for any easy stay, place was comfortable and convenient to travel to/from. thanks :)

很愉快的一次入住体验，离弘大很近，我觉得弘大是最好逛的一片，而且民宿离地铁站公交站都很近，所以住这边非常的方便。民宿很温馨，很有家的感觉，房间里应有尽有，跟普通的民宿不一样，有厨具，洗衣机，烘干机，洗衣液，甚至还有卷发棒，对女生超级友好，而且周围环境也非常好，很安静，晚上睡觉根本不用担心会吵。房东人也巨好，有求必应的那种。走的时候非常不舍得，下次来一定还住这里。
