First bathhouse? Scrub Pass →About this place
NotesSparex Dongmyo is a space that combines the traditional jjimjilbang (Korean sauna lounge) format with modern design. Built around the slogan 'Rest', the atmosphere leans toward quiet recovery, and various programs run on site. A physical ID is required for overnight stays. The address is the 13th floor of Season Building, 19 Jibong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, 40m from Dongmyo Station Exit 6, and it operates 24 hours, year-round. Adult admission is 14,000 KRW during the day and 16,000 KRW at night, with the jjimjilbang suit included; children pay 7,000 KRW by day and 8,000 KRW at night, and under-24-month infants enter free. Luggage storage costs 20,000 KRW and allows one trip out before returning. Parking is free for three hours, after which a single five-hour pass costs 10,000 KRW, then 1,000 KRW per ten minutes. Group visits and reservations are accepted. Bathing floors are gender-separated and hold a hot pool, a 38C warm pool and a cold pool. The saunas cover a 90C high-temperature dry room, a hanjeungmak (traditional Korean kiln room of stone or clay) and a steam room, plus a Himalayan salt room, cypress forest bathing area and cave room. The jjimjilbang floor has a sleeping area, and seshin (Korean full-body scrub) is offered day and night. Guests report that weekends get crowded, so off-peak hours are worth a look.
Practical notes
Luggage storage costs ₩20,000 and lets you leave your bags, go out, and come back in. A physical ID is required if you stay overnight. Eligible for the Korean cultural expense tax deduction; group visits and reservations are accepted. Visitors report that hairdryers are charged separately by the minute, so long hair or a winter hair wash adds to the bill. Wheeled suitcases cannot be taken into the changing room at any size and must be left in the luggage area inside the glass door at the entrance.

No booking needed
Just walk in
Places like this do not take bookings. Pay at the counter and go in. Know the steps below and a first visit is fine.
From the door to the exit
- Pay the entry fee at the counter. Many take cards, but a little cash is the safe bet. You get a shoe-locker key.
- Put everything in a locker in the changing room. The bath area is fully nude — no swimwear. Wear the key on your wrist.
- Shower before entering any tub. This is the one rule everyone notices.
- For a body scrub (seshin), go straight to the scrub attendant inside the bath area. Usually cash, and you wait your turn.
- Return the key at the counter on the way out. Some places settle extras (scrub, drinks) at that point.
Good to know
- Men and women bathe separately. In jjimjilbang common areas you wear the provided sauna clothes.
- Large tattoos may be refused at some places. If that concerns you, check before you go.
- A towel is usually provided but small. Scrub mitts, toothbrushes and razors are sold at the counter.
- No photos inside the bath area. Easiest to leave your phone in the locker.
- Prices and hours are compiled from public information and may have changed. If you are coming from far, one phone call is worth it.
