Choosing the right arrival point for your journey depends on your destination and transit requirements. Gimpo International Airport (GMP) is the closest facility to the center, handling primarily domestic flights and short-haul international routes within Asia, offering the fastest access to the city through local transit. In contrast, Incheon International Airport (ICN) acts as the primary international gateway, situated in a neighboring city, and remains the top choice for travelers on long-haul routes due to its world-class amenities and extensive connections. For travelers heading to specific provincial destinations, Cheongju International Airport (CJJ), Wonju Airport (WJU), and Yangyang International Airport (YNY) serve as useful regional hubs located in nearby cities, which may be more convenient if your destination lies outside the immediate metropolitan core. Always verify your transport connections, as most regional airports rely on bus or train transfers to reach the wider network. Generally, opt for Gimpo if you prioritize time and short regional flights, while Incheon is superior for global accessibility and luxury transit services.

I stayed at the Residence side. The room was all right, nothing exceptional. The walls are kind of drab but you get used to it. The room is what Koreans call an officetel. There was sufficient floor space to open two large suitcases without blocking the way. I could hear a cat from another room. The breakfast really was outstanding. So many excellent food choices. Definitely worth including breakfast in your booking. Hotel to airport transfer was excellent. Just make sure you book it in advance. It stops at gate 8A if you're coming from Terminal 2.FromUS$60

- Great location - shuttle bus takes five mins from the T2 to hotel
- Hotel staff are polite and professional
- Fast check-in/check-out
- Breakfast buffet is very good
- Be careful: there're no toothbrushes provided by hotel, need to buy them downstairs in the convenience store
- The hotel shuttle bus leaves from T2 at gate 4 (you will find the sign as you exit), I attach the picture of the schedule as of the time of writing
Overall: easy to get to, very near airport, great breakfast, easy to find and board the shuttle busFromUS$89

A pretty good option for travelers looking for convenience and value. The rates are very reasonable, making it a solid choice for a short stay near the airport.
One of the biggest advantages is the location—it’s just two stops away from Incheon Airport, which makes getting there quick and hassle-free. The hotel is right next to Unseo Station, so transportation couldn’t be easier.
The surrounding area is also very convenient. There’s a Lotte Mart directly opposite the hotel, perfect for picking up groceries or last-minute essentials, and an Olive Young downstairs for skincare and toiletries. On top of that, there are plenty of food options nearby, so you’ll never have trouble finding something to eat.
The only downside was the air conditioning system. The hotel uses a central heating system, so there’s no individual control for the aircon in the room. It did get quite warm at times, and we had to open the window to cool things down.
Overall, it’s still a practical and comfortable choice for anyone transiting through Incheon or looking for an affordable, well-located hotel.FromUS$48

,It was close to the airport train station, so it was nice to be able to get there quickly as I was tired.
It was nice to have a shower in the room and it was quiet and perfect for sleeping. Speaking of greed, I feel that it would be more convenient if there was a toilet in the private room, but it was very helpful for using the air for an overnight departure in the morning.Family friendly

The worst mattress ever. Could not sleep. And service terrible. Front desk clerk missing from 8 to 8 nobody unt the evening. During the day rarely somebody there. Room smaller but the worst is the mattress. I could fill every spring. I think that was the box spring not the mattress itself. No shuttle even if they advertised. It doesn’t exist. So the front desk said. Not wanting to stay again here 🥹FromUS$32

What a great place to stay for families. The staff was nice and welcoming upon arrival and accommodated our request of having our three rooms nearby. The interior and bathrooms were well appointed with gorgeous floral arrangements throughout the lobby. The shuttle to and from the airport was free and convenient. We would definitely stay again.FromUS$175

The room was spotless and smelled lovely everywhere. It's really close to Incheon Airport, and there's a shuttle bus every half hour, which was super convenient. I was in a hurry and couldn't stay longer, but I definitely want to bring my whole family back next time! My only regret is not being able to get a BTS room card; the guy at the front desk tried hard to find one the day before, but they were all out.FromUS$245

We stay 1 night at Nest Hotel as tomorrow early morning flight. Location wise, it was very near to Incheon airport which takes about 15 minutes by hotel free shuttle bus.
One point very important to all, must be punctual and follow the schedule time exactly if want to take free shuttle bus. We tried both way depart from T1 to hotel and next day depart from hotel to T1. If the timetable stated 7.30am mean the bus will start engine and leave at 7.30am. Please arrive earlier.
Nearby there are various restaurants and beach areas to walk. We took our dinner nearby very delicious and reasonable price but most of the restaurants closed 9pm.
The room itself was well lit by natural lighting. The room was very comfortable and amenities were well stocked.FromUS$104

Incheon International Airport region Incheon|28.5km from city center
This was by far the best hotel we stayed at during our trip to Korea. The surprise hit the moment we walked into the room; we seriously thought the front desk had given us the wrong one. We had only booked a special-offer room and even asked them to switch it to two twin beds, so seeing a suite immediately made us think we were causing too much trouble and needed to get a cheaper room instead. So, we trekked all the way back to the front desk – and I mean *all the way*, because the room was really, really far from reception. But the staff told us the room was correct, no upgrade, they were just that amazing. We were absolutely stunned. For under $200, we got a five-star suite in Korea. This room made the subsequent $300-ish rooms we stayed in feel like we were sleeping in a public restroom.
So yes, the room was genuinely excellent. And the surrounding facilities were incredibly comprehensive; it is a resort after all, with everything you could want for dining, entertainment, and activities. There's even a casino, though I didn't go. There must be at least a dozen restaurants; we tried two. The prices weren't much higher either.
There's a water park too, which the front desk helped us book at a special rate. The funny thing was, just as we were about to leave, I couldn't find my swim trunks, so only my son got to go. According to him, there weren't many options or people, so he could play quietly by himself. I found my swim trunks just before check-out, under the pillow. I had specifically put them there the night before, ready to wear, and then completely forgot. Fate certainly has a sense of humor.
A great place, well worth a visit.FromUS$163
