Express bus or subway
Hello, I need some advises here.
I will be staying at JW marriott Dongdeamum for few days with a friend. Was wondering which route (express bus or subway) is easier for us to travel from incheon airport to our hotel. And same route back from our hotel to airport.
Thank you!

Airport Limousine Bus Stop #6002 (From ICN)-Dongdaemun Shopping Complex 0.3 miles E
Subway Station

Strange they don't mention Limo Bus that stops directly at hotel. I would email and ask if this is omission and/or error?

Def bus. Specially if you have luggages to carry around. I found airport limousine bus to be the most convenient and efficient way to travel from the airport into seoul.
There is an airport limousine bus information counter when you come out of the immigration. You can ask them which bus you should take, bus stop no. as well as buy your ticket from here.

Personally, I don't mind spending the extra 6000 KRW (~6USD) to ride in the KAL limo bus. The KAL limo bus has 2-1 seating with wide and reclining seats. This is just heaven, especially after a long flight stuck in Y. The regular airport buses have 2-2 seating.

After using the airport bus for three years to go to the airport, I finally had to use the train to my new neighborhood last week. Hands down, the bus wins. Quite simply, you are guaranteed to get a seat on the bus. I had no such comfort on the train.

Back when I lived on Line 9, a handful of stops from GMP, I always took the train to ICN. Taking the commuter to GMP and then crossing the platform to an express line 9 train was nearly always quicker than the bus, and at least 50% the price. The train can be the better option in select cases, but most parts of Seoul are best served by the busses.
