10-minute walk from Hongdae Entrance Station, BBQ, campfire, 2 rooms, 3 beds Overview

Honestly, when I first saw the name 10-minute walk from Hongdae Entrance Station, BBQ, campfire, 2 rooms, 3 beds, I thought someone had accidentally copied their booking notes into the hotel name field. But you know what? That awkward name actually tells you everything you need to know about this quirky little spot in Seoul‘s most vibrant neighborhood.

I mean, let’s talk about that location first – it really is about a ten-minute stroll from Hongdae station, which puts you right in the heart of all that late-night energy. You’ll hear the distant thrum of live music and street performances drifting over, especially on weekends, but it’s far enough away that you can actually sleep if you want to. The walk back after a night out isn’t too brutal either, though I’d recommend downloading a map app because those narrow streets can get confusing when you’re tired (or, well, after a few soju shots).

What really caught me off guard was the whole BBQ and campfire setup – this isn’t your typical hotel experience. There’s actually an outdoor area where you can grill Korean barbecue, and they’ve got this little fire pit that creates this unexpectedly cozy atmosphere. It’s sort of like urban glamping, if that makes sense. The staff will help you get the fire going if you’re not sure what you’re doing, and there’s a convenience store about two blocks away where you can grab meat and vegetables. I spent one evening out there with some other travelers, roasting marshmallows and swapping stories – definitely not something you’d expect in the middle of Seoul. The smoke does linger on your clothes though, so maybe pack accordingly.

The sleeping situation is pretty straightforward – two rooms with three beds total, so it works well for small groups or families who don’t mind sharing space. The rooms themselves are clean and functional, nothing fancy but everything works. The beds are those firm Korean-style mattresses that take a night or two to get used to if you’re coming from softer Western beds. There’s decent Wi-Fi throughout, which matters when you’re trying to navigate the subway system or translate menus.

What I really appreciate about this place is how it embraces that slightly chaotic Hongdae energy without being overwhelming. You’re close enough to stumble into amazing late-night food stalls, underground clubs, and those karaoke rooms that stay open until sunrise, but you’ve also got this little sanctuary where you can decompress. The 9.5 rating makes total sense once you understand what they’re going for – it’s not luxury, it’s authenticity with a twist of adventure. Perfect if you want to experience Seoul’s nightlife culture but also crave something more personal than a standard hotel room.

Reviews of 10-minute walk from Hongdae Entrance Station, BBQ, campfire, 2 rooms, 3 beds

  • Frances from Philippines (9/10)

    The ambiance was really nice. All rooms were very neat and spacious. Requested for early check-in and bath towels and the host approved with no charge which we were happy about. There were also free complimentary treats, yakgwa. The host was very responsive and kind enough to help us with our requests. It was near Hongik University Station and bus stops.
