I had a great experience for my business trip. It was clean, convenient and the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly.

The wifi in the lounge was great. It would have been nice to have wifi in the room, but that wouldn't stop me from staying here again.

7.2 Very good

Based on 47 reviews

The price was so low that I was expecting less. But the room is large. The main shopping area with all the famous Korean cosmetics brands were just 2 minutes outsides.

Famous bibimbap restaurants about 10 minutes walk and Korean Hanok Village about 15 minutes walk.

i traveled to jeonju on my own during the summer as a side trip out of seoul. since my korean is limited to hello/goodbye/thank you, i was quite horrified to realize that only 1-2 people speak english in jeonju.

it took forever to figure out where i needed to go (make sure your directions are in korean--not english), but once i got there, it was amazing. as a young female traveling alone, i wasn't sure how comfortable i would feel here (since i chose the hotel for its cheap price), but i was delighted to find the place charming, safe, and clean. the room had everything i would have expected from a far more expensive hotel (indeed was nicer than the rooms i've gotten elsewhere in korea), but it was nice, clean, and well-maintained. the owner spoke english and was incredibly kind enough to give me directions and store my stuff when i got there early. they brought me breakfast in my room, and made sure i had everything when i left. the breakfast to my delight had eggs and toast--an amazingly westernish breakfast for a korean hotel. this made me very happy! i was delighted that i stayed here, and i would definitely come here again!! as a side note...it is hard to find this hotel since it is on a side street kind of stuck in the middle of what looks like nowhere. however, it's actually only about 5 minutes from the mainway. just know that it may be a little hard to locate--take a taxi!

Goodstay Lynn House Hotel

7 Very good

Based on 38 reviews

The room was clean and fairly big for a single person. When I got off from Jeonju station, I looked at the map and decided to walk.

However it took about 30 minutes and when I reached the area, I saw many other hotels and do not know which one as all the hotel signs are in Korean. I walked into some of the hotels hoping to ask for directions, but some of their counters were closed. Finally I walked into a hotel with someone at the counter. She was helpful but does not speak English. She called up the hotel I am going to stay and the hotel owner came and picked me up. It was only a few blocks away but it was like a maze. The hotel location was also a bit far from the place of interest too. I had to take a taxi and it cost 5000 won. The next day I decided to take a taxi back to the station and request the hotel owner to call a taxi for me. However he could not understand English and he called up a friend who could speak English. The hotel facilities were good and the staff was quite helpful. It would be better if the staff could speak some English.

White Tourist Hotel

7.4 Very good

Based on 27 reviews

It was good. It was stated that there was WIFI in the room, but no. Only WIFI in the lobby. Was quite disappointed with that.

There is a coffee house just at the lobby where they sell great coffee. Just beside the coffee house, sells traditional korean food which is really cheap and opened by an old lady which sells really delicious food. Every place was near just that we have to walk for around 15-20mins. No buses around except for the bus terminal which only travels to other parts of korea, (Eg. Seoul, Gunsan , Gwangju etc) No buses that travel nearby and no subways too. Taxi is cheap to get around and it was the best place to stay in because it is in the center of jeonju. Staff can't speak english but was helpful to help us get a taxi and told taxi where we want to go. Night shift staff was very friendly, if interested in fried chicken/pizza, you can ask the staff to order for you and it will be delivered up to your room. Clean room. Convenience store just at the back alley of the hotel, beside the hotel and infront of the hotel. all are 24 hours.

Ilrakdang Hanok Hotel

8.1 Excellent

Based on 85 reviews

I liked this hanok hotel better than the other one I stayed at in Gyeongju. It's very easy to find and even shown on the tourist map of the Jeonju hanok village.

Once there, it is hard to figure out how to find the owner. I ended up knocking on every door until she came out and showed us our room. The room had a separate (but indoor) entrance area to take off your shoes which was a nice touch. Bathroom was small but clean without any weird smells. The owner didn't speak any English but was very nice and did her best to communicate with us, recommending us a great restaurant to try Jeonju bibimbap, making our futon bed for us, and even giving us a bag of fried seaweed to snack on. She also brought in an electric kettle and gave us some instant coffee and bottled water. Only downside was she forgot to tell us the wifi password, and later that evening I couldn't find her to ask for it (I tried knocking on doors again but nobody came out, also made me feel weird knocking on doors where other guests were probably staying).

Seonunjae Hanok Hotel

8.6 Excellent

Based on 99 reviews

I had my doubts when we first booked for 6 nights in this guest house but at the end my wife and i were unanimous that we will stay here again if we come back to Jeonju.

The experience of sleeping in a Hanok guesthouse was great, the room was comfortably warm and the floor was heated. The location in a Hanok village was excellent as there are a lot of nice restaurants, cafes and attractions around. And our host Mr Kim went out of his way to make our stay a pleasant one, from helping us plan our daily drivearounds (we were on self drive holiday), to recommending nice places nearby to eat (sometimes he even guide us there personally!), help us with our laundry and even helped to order a Korean pillow that my wife wanted! What more can i say, highly recommended! Btw, Mr Kim speaks good english.

In-Yeon Hanok guesthouse

9.4 Exceptional

Based on 82 reviews

Really enjoyed the one night stay at In-Yeon guesthouse! It took about 20min ride by taxi from Jeonju station and is about 1min walk away from the hanok village.

My friend and I were touched by the host's actions; she had waited for us to arrive outside the guesthouse as it was late and were worried that we were lost. The host was also a nice lady to talk (we forgot to get her name tho:P). But all in all, great place to stay at and you don't even have to worry about the cold in winter because the floor heating would keep you really nice and warm, you'd prolly wouldn't feel like getting out of bed;)

8.1 Excellent

Based on 42 reviews

my first time staying in a hanok and i really enjoyed it. the room is small but very clean and cosy, was sleeping on the floor with a thick blanket but it was very comfortable.

it is located in the heart of hanok village with plenty of food places nearby, ie the bibimbap restaurant and mandu shop running man filmed at. owner is very friendly and helpful and even walked with us to the fortune caskets when i wanted to visit running man film site. he spotted us in the crowed when we were listening to a busker and gave us a keychain each from a stall owned by him and his friend. will definitely stay here when i come back to jeonju!

Jeonju Geune Hanok Guesthouse

8.8 Excellent

Based on 58 reviews

Min-hee is the consummate host - kind, helpful, thoughtful and devoted to her customers. She was always prompt responding to my questions, helpful when I needed to leave my luggage for "early arrival" and "late departure", assisted me with my requests - and, a wonderful cook (breakfast).

The hanok is along the riverwalk and away from the maddening crowds, so I had a quiet and peaceful stay. Highly recommended - but, don't book when I need to book! LOL! Thank you Min-hee - I will see you again in a few months!

8.9 Excellent

Based on 13 reviews

My family LOVED this Hanok! The hostess was incredibly sweet and informative. The Hanok was comfortable and clean.

The overall decor and feel of the Hanok felt authentic with a touch of greatly appreciated upgrades (AC and a modern beautifully decorated clean bathroom). You must have breakfast at the Hanok!!! It was DEEEELICIOUS and only 5,000 won (~$5) per guest! Overall a wonderful experience and I will definitely refer friends traveling to Jeonju. ^ - ^

Traveler impressions of Jeonju-si

Jeonju is my favourite city in Korea. It's the provincial capital of Jeollabuk Province, an agricultural province known for it's delicious food.

Jeonju's specialties include bibimbap (assorted vegetables and rice) and kongnameul gukbap (bean sprout soup). The main attraction is the Hanok Village-- an area of the city with traditional "Hanok" buildings and relics of the Joseon Dynasty, as well as an old Catholic Cathedral. There are hiking trails leading into the surrounding mountains. Across from the village, on the second floor of Nambu Market is the vibrant Real New Town, a cooperative of cafes, restaurants (even Mexican!) Korea's best cocktail bar, boutiques. . . all run by young entrepreneurs. They often host concerts and events and the vibe is good. Jeonju hosts numerous festivals, including an International Film Festival every spring when the atmosphere of the city is cranked up. Wansan Sports Park in the south-west also has a huge covered rock-climbing wall! You can stay in a Hanok guesthouse in the Hanok Village, but there are lots of accommodation options for all budgets.

Jeonju very easy to get there, fr incheon by express limousine bus, then get off at terminal express, cross forward take a taxi 4500 or by bus intercity, get off in front of church katedran Jeonju.

fatimah ,Indonesia

not able to say much about the town as i was only there for one night. hopefully there will be direct bus to hanok village from express bus terminal and return trip.

Lee ,Singapore

In all my travels in Asia and North America the locals are the friendliest I've encountered from hotel staff, taxi-cab drivers, shop keepers, people on the street, etc.

Just looking bewildered and confused, and someone notices and tries to help! The food is out of this world - Jeonju known as the heart of Korean cuisine lives up to its billing and more! The cultural and historical offerings are exceptional, as well as shopping! I am definitely planning a return visit!

kim ,United States

Nice place to visit because its food its amazing, being also its people great. The Hanok village its nice but lacks a little bit of authenticity.

Vaca Sanz ,Spain

The Jeonju is the first of the food " BIMBIMBAP" , in the night they are close.. so You must the original of bimbimbab in the evening

LESTARI ,Indonesia

Visit the Hanok Village to see traditional Korean builings that are still in use today. There are amazing cake shops and people sell home grown vegetables on the street in the evenings.

There are lots of parks and outdoor gyms. You can stroll trough Jeonju on the footpath along the river. Get the 970 bus to the mountains and eat in the restaurant there. Go early it gets busy, but the food is all fresh.You can buy some to take home from the farmers market below the restaurant. The strawberries were delicious. Try the local dishes, they are very good.

We were here for the Jeonju International Film Festival. The volunteer workers at the festival were friendly and helpful.

The Cinema Street area is packed with food and shopping that could be enjoyed year round. Nearby Hanok Village gives a look into the historical culture of Korea. Learning simple Korean phrases will help you in communicating with taxi drivers and shop workers. Many of the workers at JIFF were university students who had English skills, but it still would be nice to learn some basics of the language.

Everson ,United States

it is a fantastic place to visit and you can enjoy the traitional korean food there. It is an ancient and traditional place.

very nice!vv...

PoWah ,Hong Kong

Apart from the Hanok village, Jeonju is nice for eating Bibimbap and the people are really friendly and helpful.

It is also a good hub if you want to visit Suncheon Bay

Bennett ,Netherlands

Very nice medium size city with lots of attractions around. Recommend to visit "Mai-san" (Horse ears mountain) which is just an hour from the city.

Chui ,Hong Kong

This place is very famous for its food and indeed the food are really delicious. You should try Bibimbap (mixed rice), 콩나믈국밥 (a kind of porridge with bean sprout, I don’t think it sounds delicious to me but it turned out to be savory, you should try), 한정식 (a kind of traditional Korean meal full of every kind of food you might think, you will feel like a King/Queen.

I recommend it if you travel in group because it’s quite too much for couples and the price is expensive), 떡갈비 (grilled minced marinated beef, you wrap it with kimchi, fermented raddish and other Korean side dishes in a leaf of lettuce) and its 임실치즈 (Its plain yogurt is delicious)

Vu ,Vietnam

Great traditional Hanok village located within a moderately sized city. Great artisan goods, amazing food and tea houses.

Look down small alley ways for some wonderful tea houses.

Pietrzak-Wegner ,United States

Jeonju is city of slow, you should slow down your speed to enjoy delicious food and to know more about Tradition Korean Culture.

Wong ,Hong Kong

Good to stay there for 1 - 2 nights and then go to see red leaves at Naejangsan in end Oct to early Nov.

Chan ,Hong Kong

Can spend 1 day walk in downtown! Day and night is totally different there! Don't miss the night time! Romantic and impressed!

NG ,Hong Kong

Overall, an enjoyable stay in a medium sized town/city, both within the town and on trips to outlying places, which were easily accessible

Collins ,United Kingdom

Jeonju-si is labelled as slow city. Yes, as compared with Seoul, its pace is indeed slower but I think most Koreans don't have the habit to take things slowly and you can still car-horns.

However, love the early mornings in Jeonju Hanok Village where the tourists had yet to invade and you see the locals going about doing their daily stuff (such as being a volunteer ensuring the safety of the children going to school)
