Mariyam from Norway (9/10)
The hotel location is perfect as its close to the palace and you can find lots of cute cafes in the area too. The night life is amazing as resturants are open till late and you'll see local and tourists enjoy good food and drinks. I usually sleep poorly in hotels, but the bed was very comfortable, so I slept like a baby everyday. The private bathtube was a great experience too. Would recommend staying in the hanok for atleast two nights. It's in a quiet neighborhood, and you can hear the bird sing until evening. Very peaceful indeed.
