Gwanak-gu
Furnished stays near Seoul National University
A quieter, more residential Seoul — with a bus ride to a hillside campus.
Seoul National University's main Gwanak campus sits in the hills at the southern edge of the city. Most students live in the neighborhoods around it — Sillim, Nakseongdae and Bongcheon — and take a short bus ride up to the campus.

What SNU is like
- A more residential Seoul than Hongdae or Sinchon, with local markets, affordable meals and quieter streets.
- Sillim is a well-known student and exam-prep neighborhood with lots of small restaurants.
- Nakseongdae and Seoul Nat'l Univ. Station offer a bit more variety and an easy line into the center.
Getting around
- Line 2 runs through Nakseongdae and Seoul Nat'l Univ. Station, with frequent buses up to the campus.
- Sillim Station (Line 2) is another common starting point, with its own bus connections.
- The campus is large and hilly; it's worth checking which gate or building you'll use most.
Good to know
- The station that carries SNU's name is a bus ride from the campus, not at its gate. Allow extra time on your first week.
- A room that looks close on a map can still mean a long uphill walk — check the route to your actual building.
Staying 90 days or more? Some listings may offer a residence confirmation for your ARC application, but we make no promise about it: it depends on the host and our booking partner, and may depend on the length of stay. See our ARC guide for general information.
