Long Weekend Haus DDP: Solo Accommodation in Seoul

For a 3 night, 4 day solo trip to Seoul, the first thing to check when picking accommodation is distance to a subway transfer station. Hongik University Station is where Line 2 and the Airport Railroad meet at the same station, making trips to Incheon International Airport and Gimpo International Airport quick. Myeongdong Station sits on the single Line 4. Jongno 3(sam)ga Station is where Lines 1, 3, and 5 overlap.

Long Weekend Haus DDP (Long Weekend Haus DDP, longweekendhaus.com) is a suite style property in Ssangnim dong, Jung gu, Seoul, operating twelve rooms including a Dining Suite (capacity 2, 35 square meters). It is an option for travelers who want to have an entire room to themselves.
