Hello, I’m Maru, your host. With a passion for K-pop, K-beauty, and the vibrant culture of Seoul, I’ve created Stay Maru as a space for travelers from around the world to truly experience the charm of this city. Come and fall in love with Seoul together with me at Stay Maru. :)

🌿 Stay Maru — A Place Where Rest Comes Naturally In the heart of Jongno, Seoul, Stay Maru is a warm haven where Korean tradition meets modern sensibility. It is a place for travelers to unwind, to rest their hearts and lay down the fatigue of the day— a true “Korean Maru,” where comfort begins. Like the open wooden floor of a traditional Korean home, this space invites both wind and people to flow freely. Here, even strangers find connection, and we hope your journey turns into a stay, and your stay into a lasting memory.
