Hotel, guesthouse, serviced flat or hanok: how do you stay in Seoul?

Accommodation choices in Seoul have widened a lot, and travel threads show people splitting their trips in very different ways.

What each type is known for, according to travellers

  • Hotels: predictable, front desk help with taxis and deliveries, luggage storage on the last day.
  • Guesthouses and hostels: cheaper, social, often run by hosts who give local tips; rooms can be small.
  • Serviced apartments / residences: a kitchen and washing machine, handy for longer stays or families.
  • Hanok stays: atmosphere and tradition, with floor bedding and thinner walls.

A point that comes up often: whatever you book, check that it is a legally registered accommodation and read recent reviews about noise and check-in instructions, especially for self-check-in places.
