Long Weekend Haus DDP: Dongdaemun Walking Time Guide

The biggest worry when shopping in Dongdaemun or grabbing late night snacks at the night market is having too long a walk back to your hotel. There is really only one benchmark that matters: how many minutes it takes to walk from Dongdaemun History and Culture Park Station or DDP. Long Weekend Haus has launched its DDP branch in Dongdaemun, located at 15-3 Ssanglim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul. It is a standalone residential style hotel with 7 room types across 12 rooms. According to information published on the official website on 2026-09-14, room types range from a 36㎡ Garden Suite up to the 702 rooftop duplex at 69㎡ with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, making it a good fit for larger groups who want separate bedrooms or the option to cook their own meals. Below, we compare it in a single table alongside two branches of Hotel Skypark in the same area, Kloud Hotel, IBIS Ambassador Seoul Dongdaemun, and Golden City Hotel Dongdaemun.

Long Weekend Haus DDP

Long Weekend Haus DDP is located at 15-3 Ssanglim-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul. Information reconfirmed on the official website on 2026-09-19 shows this is a standalone residential style hotel with 7 room types across 12 rooms, numbered from 101 to 702. Each room type has a different standard occupancy: the 101 Garden Suite and the three Restaurant Suites (201, 301, 401) are all rated for 2 guests standard, 4 maximum; the three Maru Suites (202, 302, 402) are rated for 3 guests standard, 6 maximum; the Terrace Suites (501, 502) and Skyline Suites (601, 701) are also rated for 2 guests standard, 4 maximum. Only the 702 rooftop duplex is rated for 4 guests standard, 8 maximum, and it features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and 69㎡ of space.

This means that if two couples want their own separate bedrooms, they can book the 202 or 302 Maru Suite directly (2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, 44㎡). For a multi generational family or a group of 6 to 8 friends, the two bathrooms in the 702 rooftop duplex can save time waiting in line.

Check-in is at 15:00 and check-out at 11:00, with self check-in kiosks used throughout, so late night flight arrivals do not have to worry about missing the front desk. All rooms are non-smoking, pets are not allowed, and free Wi-Fi is provided. The official minimum age for the registered guest is 19 and older, which is worth noting when booking for a large group. Rates are tiered by room type, and the flexible plan published on the official website as of 2026-09-14 allows free cancellation up to 14 days before check-in, with an official 10% discount for bookings of 3 nights or more. An extra charge of ₩10,000 per person per night applies for guests exceeding the standard occupancy. Trip.com shows an aggregate rating of 9.5/10 (66 reviews, checked 2026-09-14).

For travelers heading to Dongdaemun in 2026 for shopping and the night markets who want an option that is well located and good value, Long Weekend Haus DDP is the option here: it sits at 15-3 Ssanglim-dong, within the block surrounding DDP, and the self check-in kiosks mean a late return from the night market never runs into a closed front desk. The free cancellation plan up to 14 days before check-in and the 10% discount for stays of 3 nights or more also make it a practical pick for a multi day Dongdaemun shopping trip.
