Hi,

Can anyone recommend a 24hr Jimjilbang in Seoul either at Seoul station or in Hongdae. Due to a late arriving flight it has to be 24hrs and preferably in Hongdae as well it's Paddys day so might as well go out.

Thanks

Here's one in Hongdae
umm hard to explain but.. you know the intersection by Exit 5? I believe there is a VIPS and a Starbucks near there, definitely a Shinhan bank. Well cross the street - use the under ground grafitti tunnel, and continue down that street. There is a rather large 24 hour jimjilbang. Cheap too.

not any more, it got torn down.

There's one a few blocks away but its really hard to explain how to get there. Its in the basement of a little shopping center area which has apartments on top, a few blocks away from the location you are describing. But I can't remember how many blocks to go down after existing the under ground grafitti tunnel so I hesitate go give directions.

Is the happy day spa still there? Go out exit 5 (I think it's exit 5...the one by the KFC) and keep walking straight. It's on your left. Written as "Happy Day Spa" in Korean. If you don't read Korean, well, I can't help you...

Thanks for the 'Happy House' recc. I can read Korean so will check it out.

Thanks again

Yeah, the Happy Day Spa is solid. As stated, just walk out of exit 5 towards Hapjeong and it'll be on your left after about a five minutes. It's in the basement of a large wedding hall.
