Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Seoul

We had an absolutely delightful stay at this Hanok! From the moment we stepped inside, we were enveloped in a serene atmosphere with calming music playing softly in the background, and a lovely, inviting scent filling the air. The home was immaculate and beautifully maintained, with everything in perfect condition. The washer/dryer was a fantastic touch, and it was such a relief to have that convenience during our stay. All of the instructions were clearly labeled in English, making everything incredibly easy to navigate. One of the standout features was the cold water filter by the sink—ideal for those hot days, and perfect for filling up our water bottles. It's clear that the host has put a lot of thought into the little details to ensure guests have the most comfortable and enjoyable experience. This Hanok offers a truly unique Korean experience that you shouldn’t miss. The neighborhood itself is charming, with easy access to trendy spots like Onion Café and London Bagel Museum

Sowol Hanok is nestled at the end of a street with lots of cute stores. A perfect location to immerse yourself in Bukchon Village. A bonus is it is right beside a hanok cafe with traditional Korean treats. The hanok is as described in the photos. The host did an amazing job welcoming us with cold tea and sweets. Everything was pristine and ready for relaxation. The hinoki bath was the ultimte reward after a long day of walking. It’s a unique experience not every tourist gets to do. Just note the house sits on a steep incline which might be difficult for those with heavy luggages. We chose to arrive via uber taxi for convenience. Also, follow the instructions on closing the screen doors and bathroom door as there are bugs that might enter from the outside.

We stayed at Doyoung’s hanok in Bukchon Village for 10 days after two weeks of travel, hoping for a home-like atmosphere where we could cook and reset. While the hanok was beautiful and well-located, the kitchen was missing a few essentials and there were no instructions for how to use appliances—all of which were labeled in Korean. Once we reached out, Doyoung went above and beyond to make things right. He responded incredibly quickly, brought us pastries and flowers to brighten our stay, and even created a neatly designed instruction booklet with photos—impeccably done and completed so fast, we honestly hope he didn’t stay up all night making it! Bukchon Village is a wonderful area—central, walkable, and full of charm. And Doyoung is truly one of the kindest, most responsive hosts we’ve ever had. Despite the initial hiccups, we left feeling incredibly well cared for. Thank you, Doyoung!

This is an absolutely beautiful little apartment in a great location in Seochon. Perfect for our stay—would definitely stay here again! Only note is that check-in is rather late (4pm), and early check-in/late check-out is not an option.

The lingering memories of the day I spent at the Transcend Mansion around this time last year still lingered in my mind. I heard that you were opening a new space this time, so I pressed the reservation button without hesitation. I am looking forward to see what kind of fragrance will fascinate me. As soon as I opened the door of the transcendental house, I felt a sense of relief. 'I knew it, this is it.' It was a moment when the trust in the boss became even stronger. I can't believe I'm seeing a harmony of bamboo and Hanok in Seoul. I also did a digital detox that was not planned to cherish every minute and second in my eyes and heart. I remember being so confused when I woke up in the morning, because the scenery I faced in a daze was so unfamiliar. I will send infinite affection to the owner who cared about even a glass of water and promise to meet again. Thank you! ☺️💙

Very good, the location is in a local residential area, the surrounding living environment is also crowded.Easy to get around, the room is very clean, easy to check in.

This was maybe the best Airbnb we have stayed in, it was exactly how they described it. It was very clean, near the subway and the host was very helpful. We stayed for a week and it was really good to come back to this place after being out the whole day. We will definitely book here again when we go back, it really was 5 stars for us and we have already recommended it to our other friends who are planning a trip to Seoul.

It was such a pleasure staying at this beautiful accommodation. The renovated Hanok was thoughtfully designed and incredibly photograph worthy - a perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort. The location was very convenient, with easy access to trains, buses, and some great local restaurants nearby. The host was exceptional with communication and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, including flexibility with early or late check-outs due to changes on our end. The amenities were excellent, and the bed was super comfortable. Highly recommend this stay!

Great place - excellent value and perfectly located. Would highly recommend.

very easy to take the airport limousine to arrive, as well as get the bus or subway when traveling around the city. the building was secure and had great amenities, and was just a bit away from the hustle and bustle of the general area where there were loads of restaurants and shops with everything you need.

Thank you we had a great stay! It’s easy to get to Myeongdong and Bukchon Hanok Village and the view is amazing

There is a market within a five-minute walk, which has a wide variety of Korean food. There are pickled seafood, fried rice cakes, fish cakes, and everything else. You can take bus No.9 to Hongik University. There is a subway No. 2 there, which is very convenient. Because I had a schedule on the first day of my stay, I asked Hyelyn if I could put my luggage in advance. They kindly agreed and let me put on makeup. Thank you very much, I really like this balcony. It's very comfortable to sit outside and drink. My friends and I had a great trip to Seoul, highly recommended。

Which is a good place and comfortable, will definitely comeback next time ☺️

Had a wonderful stay! The space was spotless, stylish, and exactly as described. Host was responsive and kind throughout. Would definitely stay here again!

First of all - view is just wow and worth the price alone. Host was very good and responsive as well, giving us warnings about possible rain and even helped us take out the trash when needed, as we stayed for a couple of weeks. What matters to me personally while traveling is the bed, and while in this case its just a matrass, I am happy to say that it was probably even more comfortable than my own bed. While the space where you sleep is not too big (you can reach the ceiling with your hand while laying, it was pretty funny), but everything is comfortable and made resting before every day very easy. All in all, I can gladly say this place enhanced our stay in Seoul and we were very happy about it. Host, bed, shower, kitchen, view - everything was perfect. Thank you Joy for providing this accomodation. Highly recommend!

We had such a lovely 8-day stay! It was conveniently located, close to different subway lines, airport limousine bus, and city buses, and also walkable to Myeongdong without having to live in the midst of the busy-ness. Being able to store our luggage for free when we arrived was so helpful. Our bed was comfortable, and having a water purifier spared us from having to buy water every night. Amelia was very helpful and responsive. We highly recommend this home!

My wife and I stayed here for 1 week, and it was well worth what we paid. It was very easy to get around with the metro close by, do note that it’s a steep walk to the apartment if you have mobility issues. It was not a problem for us. The air conditioner worked amazing, as did the hot water. The bed was comfortable & the lack of bedsheets was not a problem and she had this comfy pad on the bad that did not move. The one night some neighbors were loud after quiet hours, we let Kelly know and she handled it very promptly for us, which we appreciated! There’s also a great Indian restaurant nearby, and lots of 7 elevens and other convenience stores. The quality for the price is amazing for Seoul, and we definitely recommend for your next stay if you want a central and affordable place!

This place is definitely a recommendation for any family. Having 3 bathrooms was great, especially with teens. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. They were responsive and helpful. Being above a bakery was great. Sinchon station exit 7 is just a 5 minute walk. There are several convenient stores around and an E-Mart for groceries with a Daiso next to it. Great location.

Great location with numerous restaurants in the area, and access to multiple subway lines as well! The place was quaint and the small touch of setting up the radio to Seoul’s classical music station was really nice. We can’t wait to come back for another trip in the future!

The place is quiet and spacious compare to the other airbnb's in seoul. Definitely very worth the buck. It may be quite far from the central seoul but it is very accessible to subway line 4. Convenience stores and a lot of restaurants nearby.

I stayed for a month and was so satisfied! It was so easy to go to other places because the subway was close, and there were so many restaurants and cafes around that it was easy to choose a menu! The host was also very kind, and it was nice to get a quick response when I needed something or had a question! It was a little difficult to move the carrier because there was no elevator, but everything else was good. If I come to Korea, I want to stay here again!

We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment. It’s very close to Namsan Tower — we took the bus up and walked down, which was a great experience. You can also easily walk to Myeongdong, which is super convenient, and Seoul Station is just nearby. The apartment itself is great, and the host was kind and helpful whenever we needed anything. Highly recommend this place! If I come back to Seoul, I’ll definitely try to stay here again if it’s available.

We enjoyed our stay here! Location was pretty close to good restaurants and shopping in Hongdae/Hongik Station area. The host let us know that the room was ready for check in earlier than the expected time and it was very convenient that they had an area for secured luggage storage. The air conditioner worked great and bed was very comfortable! Only issue we had was figuring out how to get warm water for a shower but would stay again!

Great space. Just enough for one person. I think two people would feel cramped. The space is smaller than in the pictures. I like how she decorated the place. It added more warmth to the room. I enjoyed chilling with the warm lighting and under the covers at night. It felt cosy and like home. Host is kind and allowed an early check in, with specific instructions on how to get to her place. She also recommended me places to visit nearby and responded quickly whenever I asked her questions. I’m a solo female traveler so I felt safe because there’s two passcodes to enter the building, unlock the door and a small lift. Cons: There is a steep slope you have to climb before reaching the Airbnb. So pushing luggage up & down is a hassle. The toilet is also really small. It takes about an hour if you want to go to myeongdong/gangnam/dongdaemun. But the airbnb is closer to the airport and highly accessible via bus/train. Overall, great deal for the price! You get what you pay for!
