Housing

We have negotiated hotel rooms at reduced price at Hotel Gallery, 150 meters away from the meeting venue.The Hotel Gallery is the only luxury business hotel in Seongnam-City, Seoul’s largest commuting satellite city. It is located in the central downtown of Bundang-gu which is the most thriving area of Seongnam City. The area can be connected in 30 minutes from big cities around Seoul, such as Suwon and Anyang.

We recommend you book your hotel room as soon as possible because we won't be able to keep these rooms for very long. Reservation must be done using this form (docx format). It can be sent by email or fax. Please ping Daniel if you have any issue with the hotel using this form.

Warning: the limousine bus mentioned on the reservation form is for people landing in Seohyeon Domestic Airport. If you arrive from abroad, you'll land in Incheon International Airport or Gimpo International Airport…

Map of the hotel and venue area

Transport to/from Airport

It takes between 60 to 80 minutes (yes…) from Incheon or Gimpo International Airports to the Hotel Gallery by Airport Limousine Bus. Expect an hour if you take a taxi. VISA cards are accepted just everywhere, you don't have to care about having korean money with you.

Travel to/from Hotel/TTA Office

The venue is at walking distance (150 meters) from the hotel. Please see the map above in the Housing section.
