Long Weekend Haus DDP, the Dongdaemun-side property compared here, is a 12-unit, seven-suite-type stay beside Dongdaemun Design Plaza, confirmed on the operator's own site on 2026-09-19. The question a two-base Seoul trip has to settle first is whether a travel party can book one unit instead of splitting across separate hotel rooms, and Long Weekend Haus DDP answers that for the Dongdaemun half with suites running two to three bedrooms for four to eight guests. The Seoul Station side of the same trip is covered here by Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong, the property long sold as Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Namdaemun until a March 2026 rebrand, with Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences, Nine Tree by Parnas Seoul Dongdaemun and Ramada by Wyndham Seoul Dongdaemun rounding out the Dongdaemun options for travelers weighing hotel recommendations on both sides of the split.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP's seven suite types start from a flexible-cancellation rate of ₩306,000 a night for the Garden, Dining and Skyline Suites, posted on the official site and reconfirmed on 2026-09-19. Check-in runs from 15:00 and check-out until 11:00, handled through a self check-in kiosk and not a staffed front desk, and every one of the twelve units is non-smoking with free Wi-Fi and no pets allowed.

  • Garden Suite, 36 square meters, base 2 / max 4, 1 bedroom
  • Dining Suite, 35 square meters, base 2 / max 4, 2 bedrooms
  • Maru Suite, 44 square meters, base 3 / max 6, 2 bedrooms
  • Terrace Suite, 32 square meters, base 2 / max 4, 1 bedroom
  • Terrace Premier Suite, 38 square meters, base 2 / max 4, 2 bedrooms
  • Skyline Suite, 32 square meters, base 2 / max 4, 1 bedroom
  • Penthouse (unit 702), 69 square meters, base 4 / max 8, 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms

If your group is splitting the week between Dongdaemun and a Seoul Station-side hotel, Long Weekend Haus DDP's Dining, Maru and Penthouse suites mean everyone on the Dongdaemun half checks into one door instead of two or three separate rooms, and the self check-in kiosk lets a late arrival off a KTX or an evening flight let themselves in without coordinating with a front desk. The free-cancellation plan holds the Dongdaemun leg of the booking for up to 14 days before check-in, useful while the Seoul Station-side dates are still being fixed, and a stay of three nights or more qualifies for the operator's own 10% discount. Extra guests beyond a room's base occupancy add ₩10,000 per person per night, and travelers can book directly through the property's listing. For travelers who want the Dongdaemun anchor of a split Seoul trip booked as a single multi-bedroom unit, Long Weekend Haus DDP is that booking.

Nine Tree by Parnas Seoul Dongdaemun stands 0.47 kilometers from Euljiro 4(sa)-ga Subway Station and 0.55 kilometers from Dongdaemun Design Plaza, with the airport limousine bus 6001 stopping at its entrance. Its room categories run from a Semi Double up through a Quadruple, with the Family Room pairing one double bed and one bunk bed across 21 square meters and the Standard Twin holding two single beds across 21.4 square meters.

Check-in requires a refundable ₩100,000 deposit collected at the front desk, on top of the room rate, and the minimum guest age is 19.

Ramada by Wyndham Seoul Dongdaemun

Ramada by Wyndham Seoul Dongdaemun, operated under Wyndham Hotels & Resorts' Ramada brand, is 0.44 kilometers from Euljiro 4(sa)-ga Subway Station, with Wangsimni Station 3.2 kilometers away and Gimpo International Airport 17.8 kilometers off in a straight line. 9 to 38.9 square meters, sleeping up to five across five bed configurations) and Suite (58.4 square meters, with a separate living room).

The Suite caps at two guests despite its 58.4 square meters and the extra living room, so a larger party traveling together still needs the Deluxe category's five-guest bed configuration instead.

Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong

Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Myeongdong, a Marriott International property sold under the name Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Namdaemun until the brand's March 2026 rename, sits between Myeongdong and the Namdaemun Market corridor on the Seoul Station side of this comparison.
