I booked this place in December of 2023 through Booking.com. I booked the large house for my family of 6. I received an email last week from Booking.com that the Hanok cancelled my stay. There was no reason given.  …

HI, sorry to say this is the worst hotel ever experience in over 50 years. When I arrived I was given the key and that's it. Nobody spoke English nobody was on the counter if I have a question. felt like a prison with open doors. …

The pictures advertise are not the reality. Staff not available, most time the weren't even there. No communication as nobody speaks English. Very expensive for offering nothing. In my 50 years of traveling staying here was a big mistakes.

I thought the terrace would be individual, but it was a garden. Each room is surrounded by a garden, so when you open the curtains, you can see other rooms directly. You can't open the curtains. …

Its OK..... Reception staff very nice. The place is oversold... Its in the middle of a tourist area and a bit shabby. Good wifi.... and due to the 3pm check in and 11am check out, the wifi is good in the garden where you have to wait. Good running trails in the area
