Luxury hanok with private bathtub – SN18 Overview

You know what caught me off guard about Luxury hanok with private bathtub – SN18? It’s not just another boutique hotel pretending to be authentic – this place actually gets traditional Korean architecture right while giving you those modern comforts you secretly can’t live without. I mean, the moment you step through that wooden gate, you’re basically transported into this peaceful courtyard world that feels completely removed from whatever chaos is happening in the streets outside.

The hanok itself is beautifully restored, with those classic curved rooflines and natural wood beams that creak just enough to remind you you’re sleeping in something with real history. But here’s the thing – they’ve managed to integrate modern amenities without destroying the vibe. That private bathtub they mention? It’s actually this gorgeous deep soaking tub that feels like it belongs there, tucked into what I’m guessing used to be part of the original structure. Honestly, after spending days walking around exploring, sinking into that tub with the courtyard view was pretty much perfection. The ondol floor heating is legit too – your feet stay warm even on those chilly nights, which is something you don’t really appreciate until you experience it.

What really impressed me was the attention to detail in the restoration work. The hanji paper screens still let in that soft, filtered light that makes everything look like a meditation retreat, and the sleeping area manages to feel both minimalist and incredibly cozy. I actually ended up spending way more time just hanging out in the room than I planned because the whole space has this calming energy that’s hard to find in regular hotels. The courtyard garden is small but thoughtfully designed – there’s this little stone pathway and some carefully placed plants that change with the seasons. Fair warning though: if you’re someone who needs a ton of storage space or expects a huge bathroom, this might feel a bit compact. But that’s kind of the point with hanoks – everything has its place and purpose. The location worked out great for me since I could walk to several neighborhoods easily, though you’ll definitely want to download a translation app if your Korean is rusty like mine. Check-in was surprisingly smooth considering the traditional setting, and the hosts clearly know their stuff about both the building’s history and what modern travelers actually need.
