Accommodation in Seoul is not cheap. So you pay for what you get. In terms of location, this place is great. It's walking distance to Insadong, Changdeokgung Palace, Gyeongbokgung Palace, subway station and eateries. Getting to places like Myeongdong only costs US $5 via taxi. Getting to this place after being dropped off by the airport bus is tricky. So... More

We wanted to stay in a hanok and found this one in the lonely planet. If you are thinking about it, these are according to us the good and average/bad sides: Why do it: - Staying in an Hanok is an experience. - The people are friendly and it's likely to meet other travellers - It's small scale - the...

They have good quality breakfasts, both western and Korean and you can have different menus every day. And I liked the fact that the rooms were very quiet and had this really traditional Korean furnitures. It was pretty awesome. There are separate bathrooms in every room and were well equipped. Overeall, the staffs were very helpful and we had a... More

We'd stayed elsewhere in Seoul and had a great experience at a place half the price, so we thought we'd come back and treat ourselves to something a bit more expensive. First issue was that there was nobody to meet us when we arrived, and when we called the phone number there was no answer...luckily the owner turned up some... More

I stayed 2 nights in early Dec, 2011. The guesthouse is not too difficult to find, about 10 min. walk from the metro station. When we arrived, the owner was busy serving the customers who have joined the expensive extra curricular activities so only giving us the key and the password of the main gate. It's quite cold outside, but... More

Did not stay at the Tea Guesthouse as it was closed for renovations. I recommend double checking your booking prior to your stay as we had not been notified of the closure for renovations despite our booking being confirmed. The staff were apologetic and assisted us in finding alternate accommodation but unfortunately it is an experience I would rather not... More

We had booked to stay at Tea Guesthouse, so had the directions from the station to that location, and the phone number for that guesthouse. We followed our directions from the subway and got their to find nothing but a street sign. After calling the phone number provided and having no one answer we were at a loss. A man... More

We spend 4 nights in the guesthouse. However because of raining season in Seoul, Tea Guesthouse was closed down for maintenance. Thus, the owner arranged us to stay at Bamboo House (owned by them as well). Bamboo Guesthouse located nearer to the Angkuk Station. We have free access to tv, wireless connection, washing machine, towel, kitchen and etc. Well, its... More
