Hotels near Old Gate of JBNU, Jeonju

Staying at this traditional Korean thatched-roof house (chogajip) in Jeonju was such a special and unforgettable experience! I booked this place for my friend visiting from the U.S. to give her a unique taste of Korean culture—and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The location was great, the room was clean and cozy, and the host was incredibly kind and helpful :) After booking, I recommend contacting the host in advance to let them know your estimated arrival time—it really helps with check-in. For international guests, it may be a bit difficult to communicate, so having someone help with the message is a good idea! If you’re visiting Korea, don’t miss the chance to stay in a beautiful chogajip and experience a piece of traditional life. Highly recommended! ❤️

It was a comfortable sleep. The morning sunlight shining on the floor was warm. The warm garaetteok was impressive. The energy of the Hanok made for a pleasant trip.

We had a very pleasant stay here. The hostel owner was extremely kind and helpful, and he even treated us to pie from a famous bakery for breakfast. The location is perfect—just a short walk to the Hanok Village—while still offering a quiet and peaceful environment. The room is quite small but sufficient for two people. Overall, it was a great Hanok experience at a very reasonable price.

Really nice hotel We love it, and will come again. Though the location bit far but the hotel greatt ! Have enough parking

Nice and friendly host, locale is just opposite Hanok village. Hard floor but warm. Those who needs a soft bed will be better off staying in a hotel.

This hotel is not far from Jeonju Hanok Village and also close to the famous Jeonju Bibimbap restaurant. Then the receptionist is a handsome and gentle guy, which is rare. Most hotel receptionists are beautiful women, which may be a plus for female travelers. Then the room is a Hanok-style floor. Although the decoration is not particularly Hanok, it is a bit like a modern hotel, but the sleeping board and bed set are matched and it does not make people feel hard when sleeping. In addition, for family guests, as long as they can sleep in, he does not charge extra, and in fact, the bed set he gives is also quite large, so this is quite friendly.

The place had a cozy, homey vibe that made me feel right at ease. From the moment we walked in, the owner greeted us warmly with his charming eye smile and was always eager to help. The room was great, featuring a TV, a mini fridge and a spacious bathroom stocked with essentials like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothpaste and toothbrushes. We visited during winter and the room was wonderfully warm, creating the perfect retreat from the cold. We even had the opportunity to prepare our own breakfast - eggs, bread, butter, jam, coffee and milk. To top it off, I did my laundry there, which was incredibly convenient. The owner went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. He’s genuinely one of the kindest Koreans I’ve met during my trip. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I absolutely fell in love with this place. I would definitely return! Sir, this is me, your guest from the Philippines. Thank you so much for accommodating us! Take care always!

Nice hotel close to the station in a funny neighborhood. Loved the sauna in room.

It's great value for money. There's a modern house right in front, and the area around the property is quiet. It's not too far to walk to the Hanok Village.
