Staying in Seoul has been a bit expensive lately.

Recently, I was looking at hotels in Seoul and thought, “Wait, aren’t they a little expensive?” In March 2026, a free BTS concert is scheduled to be held at Gwanghwamun Square, and perhaps because of that, it seems that hotel prices in the city have gone up a little. Especially around **Myeongdong · City Hall · Jongno**, reservations tend to fill up quickly since they’re close to the venue. Seoul is also a city where accommodation prices can change dramatically when there’s an event. Everyone, which area do you usually choose when staying in Seoul? 🧸
