How to choose hotels and stays in Korea

Places to stay in Korea include tourist hotels, budget-friendly hotels, guesthouses, hanok stays in traditional houses, resorts and condominiums, and temple stays, where you spend the night at a temple. In Seoul, hotels around Myeongdong, Dongdaemun and Seoul Station are easy bases for sightseeing, and near Incheon Airport there are stays for layovers and early flights. You can also find hanok stays in Bukchon and Jeonju, resorts in Gangwon-do and Jeju, and seaside stays in Haeundae, Busan. Trippose introduces places to stay across Korea by type. Some accept foreigner-only coupons.

Choosing a stay in Korea: how to pick the area and type

On a first trip to Korea, staying near Myeongdong, Dongdaemun or Seoul Station, where the subway makes getting around easy, keeps sightseeing simple. On days with a late-night arrival or an early-morning flight, a transit hotel in or near Incheon Airport can make getting to and from the airport easier.

A hanok stay is a chance to sleep in a traditional Korean house. At hanok in Seoul's Bukchon and in Jeonju, you can enjoy a distinctly Korean stay, such as sleeping on bedding laid out in an ondol (heated-floor) room.

Amenities, loungewear and check-in times vary by property, so check each property's page before booking. Find foreigner-only coupons to use during your trip on Korea Coupon.
