Vacation rentals with a hot tub in Paju-si

The impression of the city largely depends on the house you live in. It is not surprising that Seoul has become another favorite city. Because the house was magnificent. It is located in a very quiet and green area, near the Bukhansan National Park, around several great hiking routes of varying difficulty. At the same time, there is a subway station 5 minutes walk away and in 30 minutes you can be in the city center. There are many restaurants and cafes within walking distance from the house. The house itself (you will have the second floor) is well equipped with everything you need. In the yard live 2 cats and 2 turtles, my daughter ran every day to play with them. And the most important thing is the owners of the house, who met us, despite the late hour, were very hospitable and caring. We received a lot of recommendations for nearby attractions and restaurants, and felt like we were visiting best friends. Seoul remained in the heart thanks to such care, I already want to come back.

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.

We stayed at Doyoung’s hanok in Bukchon Village for 10 days after two weeks of travel, hoping for a home-like atmosphere where we could cook and reset. While the hanok was beautiful and well-located, the kitchen was missing a few essentials and there were no instructions for how to use appliances—all of which were labeled in Korean. Once we reached out, Doyoung went above and beyond to make things right. He responded incredibly quickly, brought us pastries and flowers to brighten our stay, and even created a neatly designed instruction booklet with photos—impeccably done and completed so fast, we honestly hope he didn’t stay up all night making it! Bukchon Village is a wonderful area—central, walkable, and full of charm. And Doyoung is truly one of the kindest, most responsive hosts we’ve ever had. Despite the initial hiccups, we left feeling incredibly well cared for. Thank you, Doyoung!

Très beau logement à proximité immédiate du village pittoresque du très prisé quartier de Bukchon. Les hôtes arrangent un service de transport privé depuis l'aéroport à la demande et vous attendent sur place afin de vous présenter le logement et ses fonctionnalités. Le hanok en lui-même est superbe, conforme aux photos, confortable et moderne. Tout vous permet de vivre une expérience authentique d'habitation traditionnelle. Belles prestations d'ensemble, hôtes communicatifs, aimables et très attentifs au bien-être de leurs invités (suggestions de visites, panier-cadeau surprise, recommandations de restaurants...) et emplacement imbattable pour les visites du fantastique quartier de Bukchon. Côtés attractions vous avez à disposition des cafés et restaurants à foison, des boutiques arty et musées insolites, des monuments magnifiques et le quartier d'Insadong, le tout à quelques minutes à pied. Laissez-vous tenter: ça vaut totalement le coup!

We had such a wonderful stay at Sawol Hanok. The space is peaceful, beautifully designed, and full of charm. We loved how the traditional architecture was paired with simple, modern touches which really helped us slow down and relax. The courtyard is gorgeous, and the whole place feels very calming and private. The neighborhood is quiet and lovely, but still close to everything we needed. We’d absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking for a unique and relaxing experience in Seoul.

Modern, clean, beautiful townhouse with a nice rooftop terrace in a hip neighbourhood. Great functional amenities provided, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. There are many nice cafes and restaurants on the doorstep, it is also walkable to Hongdae shopping street and subway station. The host provided clear instructions for checkin/checkout. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend it.

숙소가 밤리단길에 있어서 카페, 식당을 걸어다닐 수 있다는 게 큰 장점입니다. 호스트분께 질문하면 늘 빠르고 정확하게 답해주셔서 여행준비 하는데 도움을 잘 받았습니다. 지하철역인 풍산역도 도보로 가능하고, 서울로 갈 수 있는 광역버스(1200번) 도 가까운데서 탈 수 있어서 여러모로 교통편도 만족스러웠습니다. 무엇보다 깔끔하고 쾌적한 숙소가 가장 마음에 들어서 다음에 일산여행 할 때도 또 이용할것 같습니다.^^

We decided to stay at May’s place although it was a bit beyond our budget as we would like to experience the traditional Korean living spaces. We didn’t regret as the cosy place is beautifully designed, nicely looked after, simple and yet with required amenities and with cute stuff found here and there. The bedding and sheets were comfortable and clean. Lighting is adjustable- smartly designed-and bathroom is pristine. On the top of that, May was amazingly responsive and helpful with all of our random questions. The location is also excellent close to the two iconic palaces, few nice hiking, lots of cafes and a local market. Bus stop and train station are within a walking distance.

the apartment is in a calm neighborhood. It has everything you need and a very nice roof top! we could walk up to the radio tower and also down the hill is a nice area. to take a Uber, we just got up a few stairs, to the upper road, instead of going down the hill. thanks again

저도 미술을 하고 일본에서 지내다와서 확실히 일본건축가의 느낌이 더 와닿았습니다 꼼꼼하고 조식도 챙겨주시고 감각좋으신 호스트님 덕에 잘 쉬었어요 ㅎㅎ 다음에 또 갈게요!

The apartment lies in Itaewon. It is to recommend getting off the Yongan elementary school bus station - around 10 minutes walk to the apartment. With all bus lines you get easily to the city center. The Noksapyeong station Line 6 is the closest metro station to the apartment - around 15 - 20 minutes by walk. Be aware that you have to walk up to get to the apartment and it can get a little bit steep since the area is hilly. The room and the bathroom was fine and clean. The host was hospitable. The apartment is to recommend.

가족행사를 겸하여 샬레와 동시에 예약을 했습니다. 버스정류장도 바로 앞에 있어 숙소까지 교통편이 좋은거 같아요. 외관은 한옥 본연의 멋을 그대로 남겨 고즈넉함을 느낄 수 있었고 마루에 앉아서 바라본 넓은 마당과 풍경은 서울 도심에서 쉽게 볼 수 없는 아주 멋진 풍경이였습니다. 특히 밤에 보이는 한옥과 풍경이 너무 멋져서 아직도 기억에 남습니다. 같이간 일행들도 너무 만족해 다음번에도 기회가 된가면 또 머물고 싶은 숙소에요.

두 한옥에 함께 머물렀는데, 모든 분들께 칭찬을 들었습니다. 예쁜 가족 사진 남겼어요. 독보적으로 넓은 정원을 가지고 있고, 특히 뒷마당과 욕조가 예술입니다. 한옥 치고 방이 굉장히 컸고, 일단 큰 길이라 안전하고, 통행 금지구역이 아니라서 밤늦게 들어올 때도 불편이 없었어요. 바로 앞에 버스 정류장 있어요. 서울에 여행오시는 분들께 강력 추천이에요!
