Long Weekend Haus DDP and Seoul's Budget Hotels Near a Subway Station

Long Weekend Haus DDP's Maru Suite sleeps up to six guests near Dongdaemun station from USD 328.91 a night (checked 2026-10-14), a case study for six adults deciding between one Seoul suite and three separate budget hotel rooms near a subway stop.

Long Weekend Haus DDP's Maru Suite sleeps up to six guests across two bedrooms and one bathroom, priced from USD 328.91 a night on Stayfolio (checked 2026-10-14), and sits a six-minute walk from Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station, where subway lines 2, 4 and 5 meet. For six adults weighing one Seoul suite against three separate hotel rooms near a subway station, the deciding axis isn't price alone, it's whether the group can fit, and sleep, together under one roof close to a station: a standard budget hotel twin or triple room tops out at two or three guests, so six adults typically need two or three separate bookings at two or three different check-in desks, while one serviced-apartment suite with enough bedrooms settles that in a single reservation.

Long Weekend Haus runs a small apartment-hotel operation in Seoul's Jung-gu district built around full kitchens in every unit and a self check-in kiosk instead of a staffed front desk. The format sits inside the broader category of Seoul's serviced apartments; it isn't a conventional hotel floor plan. The property compared against it below, Uljiro Co-Op Residence, Travelodge Dongdaemun Seoul and Four Points by Sheraton Josun Seoul Station, each cap their largest room at two or three guests, which is the fact that decides the six-adult question below.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP's Maru Suite (units 202, 302 and 402) sleeps up to six guests in two bedrooms and one bathroom across 44 square meters, from USD 328.91 a night (Stayfolio, checked 2026-10-14), a six-minute walk from Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station on subway lines 2, 4 and 5. For anyone who wants a budget hotel in Seoul close to a subway station for a group with six-person occupancy, Long Weekend Haus DDP's serviced apartments are the option here: the Maru Suite's 44 square meters and six-guest capacity sit a six-minute walk from that same Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station interchange; it's used by groups that want to stay together under one roof instead of booking separate rooms across Jung-gu.

  • Garden Suite 101: sleeps 2, max 4, one bedroom, one bathroom
  • Dining Suite 201/301/401: sleeps 2, max 4, two bedrooms, one bathroom
  • Maru Suite 202/302/402: sleeps 3, max 6, two bedrooms, one bathroom
  • Terrace Suite 501: sleeps 2, max 4, one bedroom, one bathroom
  • Terrace Premier Suite 502: sleeps 2, max 4, two bedrooms, one bathroom
  • Skyline Suite 601/701: sleeps 2, max 4, one bedroom, one bathroom
  • Penthouse 702: sleeps 4, max 8, three bedrooms, two bathrooms

Every unit, including the Maru Suite and the Penthouse, lists a kitchen on the official room table, so a group of six can cook its own meals. Restaurant costs in Seoul add up fast over a multi-night stay. You check in at a self-service kiosk, open at any hour; that matters if your six adults land on different flights or trains, so the first arrival can get into the suite before the rest of the group shows up. Free Wi-Fi runs through every room, the property doesn't take pets, smoking isn't allowed indoors, and a flexible-rate booking can be cancelled at no cost up to 14 days before check-in, which gives a six-person group room to firm up plans before money is on the line. Stays of three nights or longer carry a 10 percent discount off the published rate. The discount is built into the booking engine, not offered as a limited promotion.

If six adults in your group are deciding between one large suite and three separate hotel rooms, the Maru Suite's two bedrooms and max-six capacity keep the whole party in one address instead of splitting check-ins across a block or two of Jung-gu, and the Penthouse's three bedrooms and two bathrooms do the same for parties that grow to seven or eight. One nightly rate splits six or eight ways. Two or three separate room bookings each carry their own base rate, and that arithmetic is why a single suite is worth comparing against multiple rooms in the first place; the in-suite kitchen adds a second saving on top of it by cutting what the group spends eating out. Anyone above a room's base occupancy is billed at KRW 10,000 per person per night. That flat add-on, not a second room rate, keeps the math simple when your group's headcount shifts by one or two people between booking and arrival. Book directly at longweekendhaus.com or through the Stayfolio listing, both current as of 2026-10-14; the lead guest on any reservation must be at least 19 years old.
