Naksan Balcony

We stayed at Naksan balcony for 4 nights and loved it. Area is super quiet but still with the convenience store just down the hill, Chang Chang Chinese restaurant is fabulous, soulgul bar definitely worth popping in, and the doughnut shop is wonderful. The walk into the centre of Seoul isn’t bad, just keep to Naksan balcony side of wall, the path is easier. We ubered everywhere and was reasonably easy, had to wait 15 mins once. Luda the host was fabulous, more than happy to help when needed. Couldn’t fault the accommodation, had everything we needed and more. Super city, super host!

Nothing

Das Apartment ist mit allem Nötigen ausgestattet (Küche, Utensilien, Handtücher usw.). Es gibt sogar eine Waschmaschine. Die Aussicht vom Balkon war traumhaft.

Das Apartment liegt auf einem Berg und ist daher am besten mit dem Bus oder Taxi zu erreichen.

We found the apartment clean, very comfortable and well equipped (dishes, pots, pans, washer, etc.). The hosts were extremely welcoming and their responses to our needs and requests were timely and always helpful. The apartment is located on the top of a hill which affords lovely views of the surrounding area. Although there is a paved pathway that leads to and from the neighborhood, the climb up is very steep and can be challenging. Luckily, there is a bus that serves the neighborhood and drops you off within a block of the apartment. That bus can also take you to the heart of the Dongdaemun neighborhood where public transit is readily available. We found the neighborhood quiet and conveniently located to Naksan Park, City Wall and some neat cafes.

Other than the steep climb discussed earlier, we didn’t find any to dislike about the apartment.

Very clean, great city views from the balcony and upstairs rooftop. Owners were very helpful and friendly

Nothing-everything was great

Appartement bien équipé, au calme, avec un balcon. Le quartier est très agréable et pittoresque. L’emplacement en haut de la colline offre une magnifique vue, et avec le bus 3 on s’épargne la montée un peu rude en fin de journée pour

Le grand rooftop (collectif aux résidents) est vraiment chouette, mais la raideur de l’escalier le rend un peu moins accessible.

The host gave us the front door code access and allowed us use the courtyard to store our luggage before check-in. However, she was there to greet us early and gave us an early check-in! The view is outstanding - but it is up a slight steep hill pedestrian walkway, and 2 steep flights of stairs. The hosts were amazing and very responsive. Space super clean. There are walkable cafes and restaurants on the other side of the old city wall, a few coffee and donut shops and restaurants in the alley behind the property. We took the local bus, but also took Uber to access other parts of Seoul. There is a charming bar (Soulgul) just down the street - lovely vibe, owner and patrons! The area is definitely local - exactly what we were hoping to experience! Like most of Seoul - the area and the people will steal a part of your heart.

The steps are a bit tricky if you have some joint issues (me) to navigate - but I managed and did fine, and everyone else in our group had no problems. The view must be earned - but worth it!

Im Naksan Balcony fühlt man sich wie zu Hause, die Lage ist perfekt, wenn man einen Eindruck in das authentische Leben in Seoul haben möchte. Ich werde wieder kommen!

Very comfortable apartment and beds. Gorgeous towels. Easy check in. Close to a bus route. Early check in was accommodated. The view of the city was amazing and proximity to Naksan Park & City Walls was lovely. Felt like a very traditional area of the city (old-town).

Its located on a steep hill and this limited our movements slightly. Restaurants were 15- 30 minutes walk depending where you were going.
