Gyeongsangbuk-do(Gyeongju-si)

Cheonggong Hanok is a mere 10 minutes away from Bulguksa Station (Donghae Line) on foot. The two traditional Hanok buildings house 10 rooms. Once you enter the main gate, the harmonious scene of a big grassy yard, a very old pine tree, a small pond, and the graceful Hanok buildings welcomes you. The garden looks a bit exotic, but there is a back story to it. The first architect of the house did business in Japan with his wife living alone in Gyeongju but regretted not having spent a long time with her; thus, he came back to Korea, built the biggest house possible, and lived with his wife for the rest of his life. Afterward, his descendants took over it, named it after the architect, Cheonggong, and opened it as a Hanok stay. That is how the space where Korea’s traditional Hanok and Japanese garden were put together by the Korean architect who did an extended stint in Japan came to be. The table used by the couple is preserved in the garden for guests to look at. Although it is a traditional Hanok, every room is equipped with a TV, a refrigerator, an air-conditioner, and a bathroom to make the space comfortable to stay even for children.

How does the Transit Hotel differ from a standard hotel? A. The Transit Hotel is located inside the airport (Airside). It is the only hotel in Korea that operates on a "6-hour block" rate system, specifically designed for short-term rest during travel. Q. Can I stay at the hotel if I am transferring from an International to a Domestic flight? A. Yes, it is possible. However, procedures may vary, so you must confirm with your airline regarding luggage and transit regulations beforehand. Q. Can I leave the hotel and go outside (exit immigration) during my stay? A. Technically, yes, if you possess a boarding pass for the day of departure. However, you would need to clear immigration to exit and go through security again to return. We strongly recommend against passing through immigration (entering the Landside area) while staying at the hotel to avoid complications and delays. Q. Can I stay at the Transit Hotel before my departure date? A. No. Airline check-in is generally valid only on the day of departure, meaning you cannot access the duty-free area (where the hotel is located) days in advance. You can only stay after you have completed departure procedures and entered the Airside area. Q. Can I retrieve my checked luggage while transferring at Incheon International Airport? A. No. You cannot access checked baggage within the transit area. Your luggage should be checked through from your origin to your final destination. Please confirm specific baggage details with your airline. Q. What facilities are available at the Transit Hotel? A. The hotel offers access to a Lounge (Matina), a Business Center, and Shower Facilities.
