Where to stay near here
Rooms we already check for concert trips, in areas within about 2 km of here (Itaewon, Jongno / central Seoul (Line 5, no transfer), Dongdaemun (DDP)). Prices are typical nightly rates and the links open without dates, so put your own nights in.
Hamilton Hotel
★ 7.7On the same subway line as the gym, so the trip back after the fan-con is one train with zero changes, and Itaewon keeps you near late food and bars when the show lets out.
Beyond Residence Jongno
★ 8.6Better rated and in the middle of the city, and Line 5 runs to the venue without a transfer, which is what makes central Seoul workable for this dome rather than just nice to look at. Books out earlier than Konkuk does.
K-Grand Hostel Dongdaemun
★ 8.38.3 from 783 reviews, which is the deepest review record of anything we would put you in around this venue, and the private double rooms are ordinary hotel rooms rather than bunks. It sits on the Wangsimni-ro corridor, so it is a straightforward ride back and you are next to Sindang for late food.
K-pop concerts near here
Shows within about 15km, with where to stay and how to get home after.
