My girlfriend and I stayed at Hanok Midam during our visit to Jeonju, and our experience was very positive, especially for anyone looking to enjoy an authentic stay in a traditional hanok.
The property boasts an excellent location right at the entrance of the Hanok Village, making it easy to walk to all the main attractions in the area.
Upon check-in, we were greeted with great warmth and hospitality. The entire property was clean and well-maintained, keeping in mind the typical characteristics of a traditional hanok. The atmosphere is lovely, peaceful, and quiet, perfect for immersing oneself in Jeonju's authentic vibe.
Breakfast is simple and self-service: in the common kitchen, you'll find toast, jam, milk, fruit juices, and everything you need to make coffee. It's a system based on trust and respect for shared spaces: whatever you use, you wash and put back.
Wi-Fi is available and works very well.
Regarding the room, it's important to know that this is a true hanok experience: you sleep on the floor with a traditional Korean futon, not on a bed with a mattress. Consequently, you shouldn't expect the comfort of a modern hotel. However, those who choose an authentic hanok generally seek precisely this type of experience, unlike some more commercial establishments that present themselves as hanoks but simply offer modern rooms with beds that are only traditional in appearance.
The only minor point concerns check-out: we expected to find someone at reception to ask if it was possible to leave our luggage for a few hours, but we found no one. In the end, we neatly left them with a note and had no issues.
Overall, we definitely recommend Hanok Midam to anyone looking for an authentic traditional hanok experience, in a perfect location, and within a welcoming and relaxing environment.
