Great property in a good location. The room was very quiet and the bed was very comfortable. Moreover, Kevin at the front desk was incredibly helpful and was able to help us a few of the nuances of transit in Korea. Though I mentioned Kevin by name, all of the staff at the front desk were very helpful and informative.

Great boutique hotel in Insadong area of Seoul

Very spacious with a comfortable King-size bed. It would be helpful if they had plug adapters in the room, but I think they have them available for loan (we bought one). Note that the lack of shower curtain is likely cultural because we noticed it Japan as well - there is a drain outside the bathtub. We really enjoyed our 7-night stay. The location is great - off the busy street so quiet for sleeping, yet easy/quick walking distance to numerous restaurants and shopping. Public transit is also nearby, and several major attractions are within walking distance. Free laundry facilities are available for guests (with detergent) and there is 7/24 coffee and water in the attached cafe. Finally, I wanted to highlight the wonderful staff - friendly, polite and provided excellent recommendations.

I would it definitely come back to this hotel. Very clean, comfortable beds and accommodating staff. In fact, while I was there the owner, Kevin, was by chance working the front desk and was incredibly helpful. The location Insa Dong, Seoul was perfect. It was short walking distance to the Insa dong pedestrian shopping street which was lined with fantastic shops, restaurants, and cafés. The small alleyways were so much fun to explore. It was also just a 20 minute walk to the main palace. Gyeongbokgung. The hotel and the area were all very charming. In fact, the owner went out of his way to explain to me that the name of the, Sunbee, means scholar in English because this is the area where the scholars that were attached to the palace lived. Altogether a most pleasant experience.!

The staff were welcoming and helpful. The location was excellent! Great shopping and restaurants minutes away. Even as vegans we found a number of great options. Walkable (about 20-25 minutes) to other attractions like Myeongdong Night Market. The bed was super comfortable. The free laundry facility helped us transition to our next destination with a refreshed wardrobe.

This hotel is a real gem. It’s conveniently located, just a stone throw away from the wonderful Insadong main shopping area which is packed full of cultural interests, restaurants and local stores. The hotel itself has a really good vibe. We enjoyed getting in and out of the building, and always felt great to step foot in it after an outing. Everything in the room worked really well. It was late August the weather was really hot. The air con in the well proportioned room was a godsend. The beds in our family room were so comfy, we all had very good sleep. All the staff members we met were lovely and helpful. So glad we chose this hotel, it made our trip to Seoul even more memorable.
