Seoul Zimzilbang

Don’t expect a luxury spa. It’s a local and no frills sauna place. Good to sweat and detox once in a while.

Nice local spot for an authentic korean sauna experience. At entry you take a key from the shoe locker and place your shoe in. Then go tot the reception desk and give them the shoe key. Pay and they will give you electronic key, towel $, and uniform. As per usual, separate men's and women's naked areas for the hot tub, cold plunge and steam room. The men's area was a bit run down, but fine. Felt like a basement with no natural light. The hot tub was not super hot and can hold 5 people max. I was there weekday midday and there were 4 total so I had the tub to myself at times. The coed sauna area you have to put on the uniform they offer you is expansive. I don't know what they do in that huge room with the foosball table with the cafe. There's not enough seating for that space. The food offerings are very limited with packaged noodles. The sauna area is ig as well with saunas of varying temperature. I think the floor here is also heated.

Great real korean sauna. Clean places, professional staff, real experience. I also wisited a korean sauna in Korea, so all of my experience was in Seoul Zimzilbang. The sauna include 3 areas: 2 separate for man and women separetly. This areas for bathing with hot and cold tube and a classic wet hot sauna. Do not bring your swimmsuit, it is just naked. There is also the own lockery and massage option. The 3th area is for everyone. You have to wear a clean uniform what you got in the entrace. Here you can have wide various foods and drinks as ramen, susi, shikje, teas, korean beverage etc. You can play billiard and boardgames. From there you can enter the dry saunas with different stonesband healing options and cold sauna. Plastic slippers also recomend, but if you forget, you can ask one in the enter.

Bring cash or debit card and your own indoor shoes! The place is great! Clean no frills. I got scrubbed and it was great. The food is meh, but I wasn’t there for that. People are hanging out community center vibe, multigenerational.

Great sauna! The hot rooms are very relaxing, the food is decent, staff are polite. It is a very simple place, and it is in those simple places that I relax best.nnPerfect place to come as a family, bring some boardgames or a book for some down time.nnThe only thing I would improve is better sitting areas. The wooden benches are really uncomfortable.
