Had such a lovely stay! The hosts were warm and welcoming, and the healthy breakfast each morning was a real treat. The neighborhood is beautiful and easy to explore, and it was quiet at night—perfect for a good sleep. They really make you feel at home!

A delightful stay with the hosts and fun Korean style breakfast. The property is very difficult to find with no English signage even with the KakaoMap app. Mat beds on the foor and no seating except the mat, cluttered courtyard area. Not comfortable if you are not used to sleeping and sitting on the floor. Excellent position in the historical village

Lovely stay

A lovely stay with wonderful hosts and a lovely breakfast. The room was cozy and warm. The location is fantastic right in the village. It is a traditional hanok so you will be sleeping on a blanket on the floor so it is going to be hard compared to a mattress but in saying that we slept well.

Amazing hotel! Stay in a traditional Korean building right in the heart of the Hanok Village district with a nice breakfast. The owner was very friendly and helpful. Just a note: in Google Maps the hotel shows up as Deomeomum.

Lovely Hanok stay in Jeonju

The Mumum (Deo Meomum in Naver app) is a wonderful accommodation if you want to stay in a Hanok. The owners are very helpful and friendly and made our two night stay more than we expected. The Korean breakfast was delicious. The location is very good right next to the wall of Gyeonggijeon Shrine. I highly recommend this accommodation.

Beautiful, friendly, traditional hanok stay

The Hanok was really beautiful, with a warm cosy room and attached bathroom. The room offered all necessary amenities. Also the hosts were lovely, providing a fresh breakfast every morning, looking after my luggage after I checked out, and even calling a taxi for me to get me to the bus stop.

Amazing stay

It was amazing staying at the mumum. The lady who owns the place was so kind. She greeted me and my daughter outside of the place to help us in. We had three big luggage, and she kindly helped to carry one of our luggage. The yard was so beautiful, and we enjoyed watching the bird family. Breakfast was great as well. I want to visit there again with my husband sometime soon.

We had a very pleasant first hanok experience at The Mumum. The property, especially the courtyard, is so nice! The room was small as expected but comfortable, and the heated floors kept us warm. The owner was super nice - she noticed us come back to the guesthouse in our hanbok and took a bunch of couple photos for us, and gave us soy milk and tangerines in lieu of breakfast since we were checking out early in the morning.

Come to Jeonju Hanok Village, it's a must to stay in a Hanok homestay. Deomumun's owners are a cute and nice couple. They were so happy to find I knew a little Korean. The lady host treated me very kindly and well, even teaching me proper Korean greeting. Every morning breakfast is served at the door that were delicious and filling. All in all, it made the stay cosy and lovely. If only Jeonju city got more to offer, else I would've stayed longer. There are many other Hanoks here in the village but I will come back here to Deomumun the next time I revisit.

Traditional stay in the heart of Jeonju Hanok Mael

This was one of my best Hanok stays in Korea. The room was spacious and cozy for a solo traveler and it would have been equally so for a couple with one child. Teh room and the bathroom were both spotless clean. The Hosts were absolutely fantastic. They went out of their way to help me with my travels, storing of my luggage and providing general guidance. The hosts do not speak too much English but they use a translator app that was very effective. They have also provided a hearty breakfast from to the room. I would very highly recommend "The Mumum" to anyone wants to experience traditional Korean lodging (e.g., sleeping on a futon on the heated floor, eating Korean style breakfast in a traditional wooden building).

The room is too small, it only suites for 2 adulds & 1 small kid. We're 4 adults and paid for 4. The bathroom is tiny, everything will get wet whenever you take a shower. We were uncomfortable to sleep here; we had to abandon our room to stay somewhere else on first night. The host wasn't friendly either; she kept checking on us every 10 minutes. Will not come back here ever.

Cosy, quiet hanok just minutes from everything

I had an incredible stay at the MumMum. The kind Emo who owns this hanok home was so kind and warm. I loved her breakfast in the mornings and she set me up as soon as I arrived with sights to see and restaurants to eat at. Her hanok is located on a quiet alley just around the corner from the main thoroughfare. I can’t wait to go back again. Jeonju is magical. Thank you, Emo for a beautiful stay!

Beautiful old hanok, very welcoming owners who spoke almost no English but were able to convey their meaning. There is no English signage on the gateway to the courtyard but Googlemaps led me there easily. I was able to leave my bag in advance of check in and the owner provided a map of Jeonju and helpfully circled points of interest. Room was clean and comfy with the underfloor heating. Ensuite wetroom. Communal room available to guests with free tea/coffee. Be aware walls are very thin and you can hear people talking quietly in adjoining rooms. Breakfast was served to my room on a tray with lots of lovely fresh fruit, rice cakes etc. When I checked out, I was able to leave my bag again to pick up later, when I did the enthusiastic female owner even gave me a hug goodbye. Very pleasant stay. Great location in the heart of the old town although it is a few blocks to walk from the bus stop.

Beautiful cozy hanok! The owners are the sweetest people ever ❤️ Very kind and helpful! The hanok is very well equipped: from air conditioner to floor heater. I definitely enjoyed my stay here. The breakfast is very traditional (sort of rice cake specialty -sweet-, fresh delicious fruits, boiled egg)… I would definitely stay again here if I come back to visit the city. Thank you so much for such warm welcome!
