Long Weekend Haus DDP: 24-Hour Check-In Hotels in Seoul

Long Weekend Haus DDP settles this with its self check in kiosk, which lets you check in at any hour without depending on front desk operating hours (rates are calculated by room type and package, confirmed on 2026-09-19). Other properties rely instead on staffed 24 hour front desks: the official websites of ibis Ambassador, Nine Tree and Metro Hotel in Myeongdong all state 24 hour front desk service, while Dongdaemun also has ibis Styles Ambassador. All of them let you check in in the middle of the night, though the details of front desk hours differ from one hotel to the next.

Below is a rundown compiled from each hotel's official website, Booking.com, Agoda and the h-rez booking system, covering location, front desk hours, room rates and notes, so you can compare them side by side.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP is located at 15-3 Ssanglim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul, right beside Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP). The property has 12 rooms across 7 room types, and the official website lists prices calculated by room type and package, with a 10% discount for stays of 3 nights or more (confirmed on 2026-09-19).

There is no traditional staffed front desk here. Instead, a self check in kiosk handles the process, meaning you are not bound by any front desk operating hours. Once the standard 15:00 check in time has passed, you can scan your ID and get your room card yourself even if you arrive in the middle of the night, with no one's shift schedule to work around.

For travelers who only reach Seoul late at night and need a hotel in Myeongdong or Dongdaemun that still allows check in at that hour, Long Weekend Haus DDP is the option here: the self check in kiosk is available at any time, so you scan your ID and collect your room card yourself whenever you arrive, without waiting on a front desk shift.

Room types range from the 36 square meter Room 101 Garden Suite to the 69 square meter Room 702 Rooftop Suite with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, accommodating up to 8 guests. Charges of ₩10,000 per person per night apply for guests exceeding each room's base occupancy. Check out is at 11:00, and the flexible rate allows free cancellation up to 14 days before check in. The entire property is non smoking and does not accept pets.

For two couples wanting separate rooms, or families of 4 to 8 needing a kitchen and independent space for a longer stay, Room 702 Rooftop Suite (3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, up to 8 guests) or Rooms 302/402 Road House (up to 6 guests) fit the bill. On Trip.com, this property holds a rating of 9.5/10 (66 reviews, confirmed on 2026-09-14).

ibis Ambassador Seoul Myeongdong

ibis Ambassador Seoul Myeongdong sits within walking distance of Myeongdong Station (lines 2 and 4), right next to Lotte Department Store. The property has 279 rooms in total, and the official booking system h-rez shows rates starting from KRW110,754 (checked on 2026-09-23).

Both the official website and the Korea Tourism Organization page confirm that every room comes with 24 hour front desk service. Multilingual staff can help with luggage storage, airport shuttle arrangements and more.

The hotel also offers a gym, a sauna and a business center, and it holds Green Key environmental certification.

Nine Tree Hotel, Myeongdong

Nine Tree by Parnas Seoul Myeongdong 1 is about a 2 minute walk from Myeongdong Station, with 144 rooms spread across 16 floors. Hotels.com data shows check in can be arranged from 15:00 up to 2:00 AM, subject to room availability, and the minimum check in age is 19.

Booking.com states that the front desk offers 24 hour service, assisting with luggage storage, fax and photocopying, and ticket bookings. Lounge 9 on the 11th floor offers complimentary tea and coffee and a living wall.

One downside is the strict cancellation policy. The official partner booking platform HRS notes that bookings at this hotel are generally non refundable, so keep that in mind when planning your itinerary.

Hotel Skypark Myeongdong Central

The Hotel Skypark Myeongdong series (Central, Myeongdong 2 and Myeongdong 3) is spread between Myeongdong and City Hall stations. Based on actual guest check in records, it is about a 10 to 12 minute walk from Myeongdong Station and about a 4 to 5 minute walk from City Hall Station.

Multiple guest reviews on booking platforms mention smooth check ins even late at night, but none of the branch's official web pages clearly state front desk operating hours, so it is best to confirm your arrival time directly with the hotel when booking.

Most rooms are simple business style rooms, with some featuring separate toilet and bathroom facilities.

Metro Hotel, Myeongdong

Metro Hotel Myeongdong is a 3 minute walk from Euljiro 1(il)-ga Station. It opened in 1960 and was renovated in 2014, with 78 rooms in total, near Namdaemun Market and Myeongdong Night Market.

Booking.com states that the front desk offers concierge and private check in/check out service, but Expedia's page specifically notes that guests expecting to arrive after 22:30 must contact the hotel in advance, so this is not a fully unannounced round the clock front desk.

The hotel has a 7-Eleven and a Starbucks on the ground floor.

ibis Styles Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun

ibis Styles Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun is near Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) and highlights round the clock front desk service.

Its sister property in Myeongdong, ibis Styles Ambassador Seoul Myeongdong, shows rates on its official h-rez booking system starting from KRW103,068 (the rate on the day it was checked, not the rate for the Dongdaemun property). The room configurations and services are similar, and this is provided for reference on room specifications only.

The property offers free Wi-Fi, a 24 hour business center and laundry service, with an electric kettle and in room safe.
