Seoul Family Rooms for Two Adults and Two Children: Long Weekend Haus DDP Suites Compared

Long Weekend Haus DDP rates six of its seven Dongdaemun suites for up to 4 guests in one room, and this comparison checks it against Seoul's branded hotels on family rooms, connecting rooms and sleeping two adults with two children together.

Published

Long Weekend Haus DDP rates six of its seven Dongdaemun suite types for up to four guests in a single unit, a room-by-room capacity the property's own site confirms as of 2026-09-19. The deciding question for two adults traveling with two children in Seoul is whether one booked room can sleep four, or whether the only option is two separate connecting rooms, and that is the axis each property below settles differently. Long Weekend Haus runs this Dongdaemun stay as an apartment-style alternative to a conventional hotel family suite, while the branded hotels compared here mostly answer the same question through connecting-room pairs rather than a single four-guest unit. Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Times Square, inside the Times Square complex in Yeongdeungpo-gu, lists a Standard Twin room that one retailer caps at three guests and no confirmed four-guest family category on its own Marriott page, so it sits in the table below rather than in its own section.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP, the twelve-unit stay Long Weekend Haus operates in Ssangnim-dong, Jung-gu, near Dongdaemun Design Plaza, rates its Garden, Dining, Terrace and Skyline Suites for up to four guests each and posts non-refundable rates from ₩306,000 a night, with free-cancellation rates from ₩341,000 a night (official site, checked 2026-09-19).

  • Self check-in kiosk, no front-desk hours to match
  • Free Wi-Fi in every suite
  • Non-smoking rooms throughout, no pets
  • Check-in from 15:00, check-out by 11:00
  • Free cancellation on the flexible-rate plan

Six of the property's seven suite types reach a maximum occupancy of four guests in one booked room: the one-bedroom Garden Suite, the two-bedroom Dining Suite, the one-bedroom Terrace Suite, the two-bedroom Terrace Premier Suite and the one-bedroom Skyline Suite each top out at four, while the Maru Suite tops out at six and the three-bedroom Penthouse tops out at eight. The listing books directly through the official Dongdaemun page, which lists both the non-refundable and flexible-rate plans for each suite.

For two adults traveling with two children, the question of whether one booked room can sleep four is what the Dining Suite and the Terrace Premier Suite settle: each puts two bedrooms inside a single key rated for four guests, so the family checks in once instead of splitting across two connecting rooms. If your flight lands after a front desk would normally be staffed, the self check-in kiosk still gets you straight into the suite, and because every floor is non-smoking with no pets on site, there is no second policy to check before booking. That single-key, two-bedroom booking is what answers a two-adult, two-child party's question directly.

L7 Myeongdong by Lotte

L7 Myeongdong by Lotte, the L7-brand hotel Lotte Hotels & Resorts operates at 137 Toegye-ro, Jung-gu, sits roughly 100 meters from Exit 9 of Myeongdong Station on Seoul Subway Line 4 (Lotte Hotels & Resorts, Expedia structured data, checked 2026-09-14).

The property's largest-capacity listing for a family, the Standard Family Twin Room, pairs one single bed with one double bed and is rated to sleep three; none of the hotel's published room types reaches a stated maximum occupancy of four guests (Lotte Hotels & Resorts listing, checked 2026-09-14).

The room is sold through the hotel's own booking engine and through Booking.com, Expedia, Trip.com, Agoda, Klook, momondo and HotelsCombined, and none of those channels lists a family package larger than the three-guest Standard Family Twin (checked 2026-09-14).

Grand Hyatt Seoul

Grand Hyatt Seoul sits in Yongsan district on Mount Namsan, within walking distance of Itaewon, per the property's own factsheet (conferencehotelgroup.com, checked 2026-10-08).

Several Hyatt-published room categories, including the Standard Twin, the Grand Suite and the Grand Executive Suite, are listed as connecting-room-eligible and rated to sleep four, but Hyatt's own room pages do not agree on a single occupancy figure for the Standard King: one reading states four guests and another states three, and no single hyatt.com page states that its connecting pairs are meant for a two-adult, two-child party (checked 2026-10-08).

A recurring Tripadvisor review describes the bathroom as outdated for a hotel of this standing, citing dim lighting, a clogged sink and a leaky faucet, and a separate reviewer called a bathroom extremely small and without a bathtub (tripadvisor.com, checked 2026-09-28).

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences

Novotel Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun Hotels & Residences, the Accor-operated hotel-and-residence complex at 238 Euljiro, Jung-gu, is a three-minute walk from Exit 12 of Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station on Seoul Subway Lines 2, 4 and 5 (Ambatel official site, checked 2026-09-10).

The Residence Premier Family room pairs one double bed with one bunk bed and includes a kitchenette, the configuration closest to a two-adult, two-child party's needs, but Ambatel's own site does not publish a maximum-occupancy number for that room, leaving the bed layout as the only capacity signal on the official page (Ambatel official site, checked 2026-09-10).

One aggregator lists the walk from Exit 12 as four minutes rather than the three minutes Ambatel states itself, a discrepancy the two sources do not reconcile (kr-hotels.net, checked 2026-09-10).

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul

Four Seasons Hotel Seoul, at 97 Saemunan-ro in Gwanghwamun, is a three-minute walk from Exit 7 of Gwanghwamun Station on Seoul Subway Line 5 (official site, checked 2026-10-08).

The hotel's only named family room, the Premier Family Room, pairs one King bed with one sofabed and is rated for three adults or one adult plus two children, an occupancy that stops short of a two-adult, two-child party (official site, checked 2026-10-08).

The hotel's own family-amenities page states only that connecting rooms "offer added flexibility for families traveling together," without naming a connecting-room product or specifying that it links two Deluxe rooms (official site, checked 2026-10-08).
