Very authentic traditional experience while staying in this hanok, we loved it! The host is super friendly and helpful, he met us and told all the details what is worth to visit, gave us a map and marked main places, told stories, he’s always ready to advise. Also a nice surprise was that each morning we got breakfast, although it wasn’t included to the price and when we suggested to pay for it, he refused. The location is also good, you can reach old hanok village and city center by foot, National Museum is on the other side of the road and Donggung Palace & Wolji pond is just 5 minutes by foot.
Nothing, everything was great! We trully recommend it

Our two-night stay in this traditional hanok in Gyeongju was truly memorable. Our host was kind and welcoming and he provided a detailed map of the city with all the main sights and offered recommendations for attractions in Gyeongju. Thanks to his guidance, we were able to make the most of our short visit. The hanok itself is exactly as described on booking: clean, charming and full of character. A particularly thoughtful touch was the breakfast he prepared for us, even though it wasn’t included in the booking. It was simple but very much appreciated, and it reflected the genuine hospitality that made this stay so special. Highly recommended for anyone seeking an authentic and warm experience in Gyeongju.

An AMAZING experience. Staying in this traditional hanok(with modern bathroom amenities) just across the road from the central historic sites was a highlight of our time in Gyeongju. Not only was the property amazing but the host really made the experience. He spent time with us on arrival, and each morning, to suggest the best way to see his city and how to get around it. We felt most welcome in his hanok and truly loved staying in the traditional experience. This is a traditional house of wood and paper doors, so being quiet and respectful of other guests makes everyone's stay so much better!

Absolutely unforgettable stay at Yettle Hanok Stay in Gyeongju. - The hosts were warm, thoughtful, and treated us like family from the moment we arrived. - The hanok was peaceful, beautifully maintained, and rich with traditional charm. - Every detail—from the cozy bedding to the hand-prepared breakfast—felt personal and full of care. - The garden was serene, and the location was perfect for exploring the cultural treasures of Gyeongju. - We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already missing it. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a soulful, memorable experience.
Our stay at Yettle Hanok Stay was perfect in every way. - The hospitality was warm, genuine, and unforgettable. - The hanok itself was beautifully preserved—peaceful, clean, and full of character. - Every moment felt thoughtful and intentional, from the delicious homemade breakfast to the calming ambiance of the courtyard. - We felt truly cared for, not just accommodated. There is absolutely nothing I would change. Thank you for such a special experience—we’ll treasure it always.

Location was outstanding. We could walk to all the sites in the main historical area. The house was very charming. The owner was helpful, he helped us with booking our cabs and he gave us some breakfast, even though it was not included in the room rate, because he knew there was nothing we could grab near the house.
While we appreciate the owner's helpful nature, we felt like we didn't have our privacy and felt very rushed the following morning . The owner was there very early and he kept trying to ensure we left by 9am. Maybe the intention was good but we were on a holiday and didn't want to be rushed but we ended up feeling a little stressed out.

Great location beside museum, palace, observatory and bus stop a few minutes walk. The hosts are lovely people and very knowledgeable about Gyeongju, with excellent English speaking skill. Mr J brings a light breakfast each day and is happy to discuss where to go, what to see, how to get there etc. He is so helpful. If you want an authentic Korean hanok stay, I would highly recommend Yettle. I loved everything about Gyeongju.

If you’re looking for an authentic traditional Korean hanok experience, this is the place! First of all, the host was amazing, super helpful and took the time to explain everything about the local area, even helping me create a daily itinerary. He assisted me with ordering a taxi, gave me coffee for the road, and kindly offered an early check-in. Despite there not being many photos of the room, the experience as a solo traveler in the single room was fantastic. Everything was exceptionally clean, and the host provided everything I needed, including a free breakfast. I totally recommend this place, 10/10.

This place was super cool, the gentleman who ran the home was absolutely incredible. When we arrived he went through the local attractions, suggested activities, and was generally incredibly helpful. The stay itself is a very unique experience, if you're looking for a traditional hanok stay I can't imagine a better place to do it.
The rooms were on the smaller side but there are plenty of common areas to hang out in. The doorway to the bathroom was also a little low so as a taller guy (6' 3") I had to duck. This definitely resulted a banged up head in the middle of the night.

Had an amazing 2 nights at Yettle. The owners are wonderful, so available and attentive. They waited for us to arrive at 8PM (we did a last-minute booking) and proceeded to explain how the whole city works and where to go / what buses to take. Also, the house is adorable and a great chance to experience staying in a classic Korean Hanok. They also gave us a free little breakfast! If I am ever in Gyeongju again, I will definitely be staying here. Can recommend 100%.

We had an amazing time. The hosts were so kind and forthcoming. As we only had one day, they helped us figure out how to make the most of our visit and even took us to the first stop when the wait for the bus was somewhat long - just to make sure we were able to do it all. The stay is also just a short walk from the historic sights and several bus stops, making it a really convenient place to stay for exploring in general.
