stayed here for a couple nights and was pretty disappointed with my stay. everything is outdated, the only good thing about the place is that its pretty 'central' and not far from the bus terminal. however, gyeongju is an extremely small city so i suppose everything is within a 10 minute timeframe. the host is kind of rude, he seems...

This hostel is located in a fantastic central location, on a main street with easy access to shops and food. But the real star of the show at this hostel is the owner TJ and the other staff. He was always there to help our group out with directions, suggestions, and feedback on what we had planned to do. He'd... More

I stayed at Nahbi Guesthouse when I visited Gyeongju last summer. I found the hostel to be more than adequate and it had a true hostel vibe. The location is perfect. You are less than a 10 minute walk from all the major sites within Gyeongju proper and a short walk away from the bus station to take you away... More

Nahbi Guest House is the perfect place for those looking for cheap budget accommodation in Gyeongju. Owner TJ is very friendly and came running down the street with a peach to give me as I left the hostel! The free breakfasts and drinking nights were a nice social bonus. A short walk from the main bus depot. Highly recommended.

During my travel through South Korea I spend 3 nights in this centrally located Guest House. It might not be in the nicest building, but you cannot beat the atmosphere of this place.

The hostel is in a good location in the center of the city near bus stops. The owner was friendly and a lot of information is provided for places and things to see in the nearby area. Check in is only allowed after 3:00, no exceptions. Which is because between 10:30-3:00 everyday you cannot be in the guest rooms or... More

This is a great place to stay, located centrally in Gyeongju, as well as conveniently on the bus lines from the Singyeongju Train station and other bus lines to visit the sites. Easy to walk to the sites in the town from the place. The room I had was clean and comfortable, and so was the rest of the place... More
