18-3 Hyoja-ro 9-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul 1F
A private studio just minutes from the walls of Gyeongbokgung Palace—not the fifteen or twenty minutes implied by most listings here, and not part of an apartment complex. It is located in a residential building in Seochon with four units on the ground floor. Approximately 36 square meters, featuring your own kitchen, bathroom, and entrance. Pets are welcome.
Gyeongbokgung Palace is just a few minutes away. Gyeongbokgung Station (Line 3) is about a 6-minute walk away, offering direct access to Jongno, Chungmuro, Apgujeong, and the Express Bus Terminal. Gwanghwamun is 15 minutes away.
Wi-Fi and a one-time move-in set (bedding, towels, and cookware for two) are included. Utilities are covered for normal usage; excessive usage will be billed separately within the same month. No ongoing services are provided (e.g., housekeeping or linen changes); toiletries and toilet paper are not restocked, so please bring your own. The unit is cleaned only between tenancies, and a one-time cleaning fee is charged upon move-in. This is a private rental home, not a hotel or commercial lodging facility. No smoking. Pets are allowed for a one-time cleaning fee of 50,000 KRW; please notify us in advance. Located on the ground floor; no elevator. Parking is available (non-designated spots). The door access code will be sent once the lease is confirmed. [Operational Information] This space operates as a short-term rental property, not a commercial lodging facility. Bedding, towels, and tableware are provided once upon move-in; disposable items, toiletries, and hygiene products are not supplied, so please bring your own. Tenants are responsible for cleaning, laundry, and waste sorting; housekeeping services are not provided.
THE NEIGHBOURHOOD Seochon is the historic district that most visitors pass by on their way to the palace. It features narrow lanes, small bookshops, family-run restaurants, and Mount Inwangsan standing at the end of the street. Just thirty seconds away lies Jahamun-ro 10-gil, a street lined with cafes—including Mk2, Boan, and Camel. Also nearby are the Changing of the Guard ceremony at the palace; Tongin Market, where you can buy brass tokens to fill a lunchbox with treats from the stalls; Cheongwadae (the Blue House); and the National Palace Museum and National Folk Museum, both of which offer free admission. Bukchon lies just beyond the palace. Rent a *hanbok* at the palace gates—wearing one grants you free entry. Hike up Mount Inwangsan at sunset. Enjoy *samgyetang* (ginseng chicken soup), market-style *tteokbokki* (spicy rice cakes), and the grilled dishes found along Sejong Village Food Street.
Gas, water, electricity, and high-speed internet are included for normal residential use. If consumption significantly exceeds the normal level for a single occupant, the excess amount will be billed separately within the same month, and the utility bill will be presented to you. The fee also covers building maintenance and waste collection.
