Architect's Cat Hanok - Sindal House Gyeongju

A lovely little place that gives you a true feel of staying in a Hanok. It's not luxury, but this place is run with love, and you can really tell!

The accommodation was clean, spacious, and even had 3 cute cats, which made our trip so enjoyable. The location is also fantastic as Hwangridan-gil is within walking distance. However, there is no private parking lot, so you have to park in the alleys and play a bit of a parking game (luck of the draw). There is a public parking lot nearby, though~ I would definitely stay here again!

The exterior of the property is well-maintained and interesting, but honestly, there are just too many things that need improvement. From mold in the bathrooms to the lack of large towels for showering. The worst part is sleeping on a futon mattress without sheets, which is really unhygienic!!! In the refrigerator (self-service breakfast), you'll find expired milk... more attention to detail is definitely needed.

A truly authentic place. Sleeping on the floor turned out to be quite comfortable. It's very close to all the attractions and the bus stop. The hosts are incredibly kind and polite. The atmosphere itself is very pleasant and cozy. If I come back to this city again, I will definitely choose this place!

This was my first trip to Gyeongju, and I had a great stay at this accommodation. I booked it because they have cats, and the little ones didn't even shy away from people! So adorable. The bathroom was a bit small, but perfectly fine for one person to shower. The bedding and towels were also clean. Since it's a Hanok (traditional Korean house), soundproofing isn't its strongest suit, but I'm the type who sleeps well even with noise, so I slept soundly. They also provided earplugs for the number of guests, so it's a good idea to use them if you need them. There's a bus stop right in front of the hotel that goes to Gyeongju Station, so I didn't have to drag my luggage far. The bus terminal and Hwanglidan-gil were also close by, making it easy to plan my travel routes.
