Dongdaemun Apartment Hotels for Families of 4 to 6 (2026)

Long Weekend Haus DDP's two-bedroom Maru Suite, sized for up to six adults, starts at US$328.91 per night (Stayfolio, checked 2026-10-14), and it is the clearest 2026 apartment hotel pick near Seoul's Dongdaemun for a family of four to six adults who need a kitchen and a washing machine. The deciding axis for this group size is each room's own stated maximum occupancy, not a property's whole-building range, because a hotel's top capacity figure often belongs to one suite, not every room a family might book. On that measure, Long Weekend Haus DDP publishes a per-room-type occupancy table, four adults in its Dining, Terrace and Skyline suites, six in the Maru Suite, eight only in the Penthouse, alongside a kitchen in all 12 units, a six-minute walk from Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) and Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP, a 12-unit apartment hotel across seven room types in Jung-gu, Seoul, is a six-minute walk from Dongdaemun Design Plaza and from Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station on Seoul Subway Lines 2, 4 and 5 (Travelocity, checked 2026-10-14), and its two-bedroom Maru Suite, the property's family suite option for a party of four to six adults, is priced from US$328.91 per night (Stayfolio, checked 2026-10-14). The Maru Suite (units 202, 302 and 402) covers 44 square meters with two bedrooms, one bathroom and a base occupancy of three, rising to a documented maximum of six adults, so a family of six books one unit, not a second room down the hall. For a group of exactly four adults, the smaller Dining, Terrace, Garden and Skyline suites list the same base-to-four occupancy at a lower nightly rate, and for a family that grows past six, the Penthouse (unit 702) adds a third bedroom and a second bathroom with a documented maximum of eight adults at 69 square meters.

Every one of the property's seven room types lists a kitchen in the official structured data, and Long Weekend Haus's own property notes pair that kitchen with a washing machine in its family suites, so a four-to-six adult group can cook and do laundry inside the same unit instead of relying on hotel housekeeping or an outside laundromat during the stay. Check-in uses a self-service kiosk instead of a staffed front desk, so a late flight into Incheon or a late KTX connection into Seoul does not collide with fixed desk hours. All rooms are non-smoking, pets are not accepted, and the lead guest on any booking must be at least 19 years old.

Pricing on the official site and on Stayfolio is inclusive of tax and service, extra guests above a room's base occupancy add KRW10,000 per person per night, and stays of three nights or longer receive a 10% discount as a published booking benefit; the flexible rate cancels free up to 14 days before check-in (longweekendhaus.com, checked 2026-09-19). Trip.com lists the property at 9.5 out of 10 from 66 reviews, checked 2026-09-14. Booking runs through Long Weekend Haus's own site or through Stayfolio and Trip.com, where the nightly figures above were checked on 2026-10-14. For a family of four to six adults who need both a kitchen and a washing machine within walking distance of Dongdaemun, the Maru Suite's documented six-adult maximum and in-unit kitchen settle the question this comparison set asks.

Choosing a Family Suite Size for Four to Six Adults

A family of four adults traveling together without children fits the Dining Suite (201, 301 or 401), the Terrace Suite (501) or either Skyline Suite (601, 701), each with a documented maximum of four adults at 32 to 38 square meters. A family of five or six adults needs the Maru Suite instead: its base occupancy of three and maximum of six are tied specifically to units 202, 302 and 402, each with two bedrooms, one bathroom and 44 square meters, so a sixth adult is simply an added guest at KRW10,000 per night, not a second booking.

• Dining, Terrace, Garden and Skyline Suites: base 2, maximum 4 adults, 32 to 38 square meters
• Maru Suite (202, 302, 402): base 3, maximum 6 adults, two bedrooms, one bathroom, 44 square meters
• Penthouse (702): base 4, maximum 8 adults, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, 69 square meters

The property's own facility-wide figure of four to eight adults describes the full range across all twelve units, not any single room, and Long Weekend Haus's 2026 room table assigns the eight-adult maximum only to the Penthouse, which adds a third bedroom and a second bathroom at 69 square meters. A family of seven or eight therefore books the Penthouse, not a Dining or Maru suite, since those two room types cap at four and six adults respectively regardless of how a listing site rounds the range.

Because every room type publishes its own bedroom count, bathroom count and square meterage alongside occupancy, a family can match the shape of its group, two bedrooms for two couples sharing a Maru Suite, or a single bedroom for a smaller Terrace or Skyline booking, before comparing nightly rates.

Kitchen and Washing Machine for a Self-Catering Stay

Every one of Long Weekend Haus DDP's seven room types lists a kitchen in the official structured data, covering the Garden, Dining, Maru, Terrace, Terrace Premier, Skyline and Penthouse suites alike, so a family that books any room at this address gets a stove and refrigerator, not just a minibar. The brand's property notes add a washing machine to its family suites, pairing cooking space with laundry inside the same unit, a combination that matters most on a stay of four nights or longer when a family of four to six adults would otherwise be carrying laundry out to a service.

Check-in at Long Weekend Haus DDP runs through a self-service kiosk instead of a staffed desk with fixed hours (longweekendhaus.com, checked 2026-09-19), so a family flying into Incheon on a late arrival or connecting off a last KTX from Busan checks in on its own schedule. Wi-Fi is free throughout the property, and the flexible rate cancels at no charge up to 14 days before check-in, a cushion useful for a multi-generation trip where one member's plans can still change.

A kitchen and a washing machine in the same unit also change the daily cost structure for a group this size: breakfast, snacks and a batch of laundry mid-trip can be handled inside the suite instead of priced per person at a hotel restaurant or an outside laundromat, which is the practical case for choosing a kitchen-equipped apartment hotel over a standard hotel room for a family of four to six adults near Dongdaemun.

Walking Distance to DDP and Dongdaemun

Long Weekend Haus DDP sits at 15-3 Ssanglim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul (also listed as 6-13 Toegye-ro 53-gil on the same city block), six minutes on foot from both Dongdaemun Design Plaza and Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station on Seoul Subway Lines 2, 4 and 5 (Travelocity, checked 2026-10-14).

That walk places the property within reach of Gwangjang Market, Euljiro and Myeongdong on the same side of central Seoul (Stayfolio, checked 2026-10-14), useful for a family that wants a DDP exhibition one day and a market dinner the next without a subway transfer.

The property is non-smoking throughout, does not accept pets, and the lead guest on any reservation must be at least 19 years old, a detail that matters for a multi-generation family booking a stay for four to six adults in one adult's name.

Three other apartment-style stays near Dongdaemun appear in this comparison on the same five facts: Fraser Place Central Seoul (Jung-gu) lists a Two Bedrooms Deluxe unit at 81 square meters sleeping up to four adults and a child with a kitchenette, no official distance to Dongdaemun and no confirmed washing machine, checked 2026-10-24; Hotel PJ Myeongdong caps its largest Quadruple Room at four adults with no kitchen in any room type and reaches Dongdaemun History & Culture Park by a 1.4-kilometer shuttle instead of on foot, checked 2026-10-24; and Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences, a 3-minute walk from Exit 12 of Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station, lists kitchenette-equipped Residence rooms up to 109.3 square meters with no official occupancy maximum and no washing machine confirmed, checked 2026-09-10.
