Must do in traditional attire, free entry to the palace!!!
Very good experience we enjoyed it
I had so much fun wearing this hanbok!! They look great in pictures and the price was very reasonable. The hairstyle are also so pretty!!! Would recommend👍
I had so much fun dressing up in a traditional hanbok and visit the palace. So many beautiful hanboks and hairstyles to choose from. The staff was friendly and helpful.
No one helps you dress - it’s like being cattle and expected to know what size will work and it’s a madhouse. Not nearly enough staff and not attentive, even had issues using our Viator booking. If you are an XL in women’s sizes (USA) or larger, this is not the place for us.
This location is very accessible - right at a train stop. There are a lot of Hanbok rental location in this area - we got a little turned around but found it without too much trouble. If you book your Hanbok on an app they don’t normally work with, a little patience is required as their standard check in doesn’t work. However, the staff is extremely helpful and friendly. They walked us through everything and were kind and understanding. I wanted to change my skirt to a different style after I was dressed and they didn’t mind at all. They do check carefully to ensure you select only items in the range you paid for. The walk to the palace is maybe 10 minutes and is easy. The palace is a beautiful place to wander and take pictures. We loved our experience and would do it again.
Fashionable and cute hanboks to choose from and the staff helps you either everything. I was dressed pretty quickly.
Great service, friendly staff! Hanbok was beautiful and simple hairstyle was included. Walking distance to palace.
It was a bit chaotic at first because our voucher didn’t work, but we were eventually able to find someone to help us out. Once everything got sorted, the staff were incredibly helpful and made the experience much smoother. They had everything you could need—accessories, styling, and even storage. The hanboks were super cute! It was a little challenging to find options for larger sizes at first, but the staff did their best to assist us and helped us find something that worked. Overall, a positive experience.
Definitely need to get there early as it gets super busy. Very well organised. Don't forget to take your passport though.
