Cottage nest

Cottage nest Overview

You know what? Cottage nest is one of those places that completely catches you off guard – in the best possible way. I’ll be honest, when I first pulled up, I wasn’t expecting much from a 3-star spot. But sometimes the best discoveries happen when you’re not trying too hard to impress yourself, and this little gem proves that point perfectly.

The moment you step inside, there’s this immediate sense of… well, home. I mean that in the most genuine way possible – not the fake “home away from home” marketing speak you usually hear. The lobby has this warm, lived-in feeling that actually makes you want to linger instead of just grabbing your key and bolting upstairs. The staff genuinely seems to remember your name after the first day (which honestly surprised me), and they’ve got these little touches throughout the place that show someone actually cares about the details. My room had this fantastic reading nook by the window that I ended up using way more than I expected – perfect for morning coffee while watching the neighborhood wake up.

What really sets this place apart though is how it strikes that sweet spot between cozy and professional. You’re not dealing with cramped quarters or sketchy maintenance issues, but you’re also not drowning in unnecessary luxury that just drives up the price. The beds are actually comfortable (I’m picky about this stuff), the shower pressure is solid, and – this matters more than people think – the walls are thick enough that you’re not hearing every conversation from the neighboring rooms. I stayed during what seemed like a pretty busy period, and honestly, the place never felt chaotic or overwhelmed. Check-in was smooth, housekeeping was thorough without being intrusive, and that 9.1 rating? Yeah, I can see why people keep coming back. It’s the kind of spot where you end up extending your stay an extra night just because you’re not quite ready to leave yet.

• Francis from United States (10/10)

  It’s a beautiful property, comfortably appointed, in a great location in Bukchon. The neighborhood is very cute and accessible to a lot of great food and sights.

• Marie-line from France (10/10)

  L’aménagement était super, la modernité se mariait parfaitement avec les éléments traditionnels de la maison!

• Harushige from Japan (9/10)

  床暖房が気持ち良かった

• Ambre from France (10/10)

  Maison traditionnelle située dans le village hanok Buckchon, ce qui nous a permis de visiter le lieu avec très peu de touristes le soir (noté comme fermé après 17h).
  Petit extérieur mais avec vu sur les toit et on voyait le palais au loin. D ailleurs assez proche du palais Gyeongbukgung.
  Self check-in facile. Explications claires sur la localisation de la maison.
  Interieur très sympa et très propre, avec mobilier high tech qui se marie pourtant bien avec le charme de la maison.
  Nous n avons pas testé le bain extérieur.
  L hôte était très réactif.

• Yan from Switzerland (7/10)

  Appartement bien placé près des palais et à deux minutes à pied d’une ligne de bus dans un quartier tranquille
