Hey everyone,

I'm planning to go up to Seoul on Saturday (am currently in Ulsan) to meet a visiting friend and spend a couple of days checking out Seoul.
My question is how does one get from Seoul terminal train station to Incheon International...is there a shuttle bus from the station..or nearby?.. would taking a cab cost too much?..how much time does it take to get there?
any info/advice would be so greatly appreciated...please keep in mind I've never been to Seoul, so the more details the better..
While we're on the topic, anyone has a cheap motel/hostel to recommend...location, preferably next to major sightseeing spots
Thank you so much

There are two buses that leave from Seoul Station, one is really cheap and stops at couple locations. The other bus is direct and I think it takes about 40 min. This way is alot cheaper than a taxi.

Goodluck

If you looking for a cheap place thats not bad for a few days. Try the hostel Travellers "A" . The cost is Dormitory 12000 won ( aprox. 11US$ ) , Single 30000 won ( aprox. 25US$. Here is a link, the pics are not that realistic.

It is relatively close to the following


Myong-dong ( downtown area )
-> 2 stop by subway or 15 minutes walk distance

Seoul City Hall
-> 3 stop by subway or 15 minutes walk distance

Dong Dae Moon Market ( Huge night market area )
-> 1 stop by subway or Just in 600 meters.

Jong Myo - Royal Shrine (World Heritage,UNESCO)
-> in 300 meters. 5 minutes by walk.

Gyeong Bok palace - Kings palace
-> 3 stop by subway

Good luck
