Experience of the stay
My first solo trip to Korea! After having great skin care during my last visit, I decided to come back again ☺️
The location of this hotel is excellent!
First, you can take a direct bus from Incheon Airport to Sinsa, and the nearest bus stop is within a 2-minute walk from the hotel. It’s also a 3-minute walk to the subway station "Sinsa", and you can reach the beauty-favorite station "Gangnam" in just 3 minutes by train.
The room wasn’t particularly clean or luxurious, it had a typical overseas hotel feel, but the staff were friendly and spoke Japanese, making me feel comfortable during my stay!
Across from the hotel, there was a female-only jjimjilbang, which I was excited to experience! When I actually visited, I felt so relaxed and relieved of my fatigue.
Additionally, Garosugil is within walking distance, making shopping fun. I recently visited a popular croissant specialty shop, and the interior was truly adorable 🫶 I highly recommend this hotel for women.
Experiences during the trip
When I tweeted about my love for travel on SNS, a woman replied, "I'm going to Korea next!" so I asked her about her schedule and found out we had the same dates 😳
Since both of us were traveling alone, we decided to have a meal together! We enjoyed some interesting conversations, saying it was our first time having such a unique experience together, and we had a fantastic time. We also did some sightseeing in Seongsu and shared adorable bear-shaped bread at a cute shop! Great memories.
The jjimjilbang experience was incredible as well; the bath and relaxation area were connected, and I could see people using their phones in the next room while bathing! In Japan, this might be considered a privacy concern and would be prohibited, so it was surprising 🫢 It really highlighted cultural differences.
