Best Luxury Spa in Seoul | Review of Ohui Whoo Spa 2025

The Best Luxury Spa in Seoul | Review of Ohui Whoo Spa was updated in March 2025.

South Koreans are the most innovative in the beauty industry. They’re revolutionary when it comes to quality skin care at competitive prices.

If you’re wondering how the Kpop and Kdrama stars look #flawless every day, now you know. The first place I ever experienced beauty treatments was in Seoul, and let me say… I have been absolutely spoiled. 

So why should you listen to me compared to everyone else? I lived in South Korea for almost six years and have tried many different skin treatments. You can count on me to know where to get the best service and have a peaceful healing experience. 

Trazy Korea sponsored my treatment package, but I enjoyed the O Hui Whoo Spa’s Beauty Care Package so much that I would often return on my birthday. For reference, I have been coming here since 2017.

The History of Whoo

Only the best facial treatments are available at the O Hui Spa. They have advanced spa facilities and professional beauty therapists who really make the experience incredible. 

The History of Whoo is one of South Korea’s highest-earning cosmetic brands. It is a luxury skincare brand that captures the meticulous beauty regimes of Korean empresses. Plus, their packaging is gorgeous and will make you feel like royalty. 

During the Lunar New Year is a great time to get these products for a deal since they come in special packages with discounts. You’re welcome! 

Trazy’s Special Care Package

Their treatments range from the 60-minute basic facial care all the way to the 180-minute Queen’s Care. 

This special package is exclusive to Trazy bookers and includes a 120-minute session. Whoo Spa uses top-notch products from OHUI, which Shin Min-a and Kim Tae-Hee models. 

This experience aims to detox your skin with a facial and body massage. I don’t know about you, but this sounds absolutely heavenly, especially after working so hard! 

In this session, you will be treated to:

• Scalp massage 
• Aromatherapy massage (back)
• Facial cleansing
• Exfoliation
• Oxygen deep cleaning
• Facial ampoule 
• Facial mask pack
• Lower body air compression massage

The Spa Consultation at Whoo Spa Seoul

For your peace of mind, make sure you arrive 15 minutes before your time slot. Upon entering the best spa in Seoul, you’ll slip off your shoes and put on slippers, then be guided up the stairs to a waiting room with snacks and tea.

You will answer a questionnaire detailing basic information, specific skin concerns, personal needs, and massage pressure. My problems have always been with acne, and Whoo Spa prides itself on personalized and specialized skin care for its clients. A consultant is available to speak English, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese.

Korean celebrities have made The Ohui Spa popular and are very accommodating to their foreign customers. 

The Massage Experience

You’ll experience the very best of Korean culture when doing this facial care. There are three different rooms at Whoo Spa—VIP, Special, and Refresh room. You’ll enter your specific room and are asked to remove everything except your panties.

When the masseuse and attendant return, your skin is cleaned, and the body care portion starts. I asked for a medium-pressure neck massage, and the masseuse was easily able to find the tightest knots in my shoulder muscle. She even massaged my lower back which really helped relax me. 

The last time I went, they didn’t have a head spa. However, I can tell you from my experience at The Days Dean, that you will enjoy every single moment of it! 

After the massage sent by heaven, you will get an air pressure massage on your legs. They will slip on these thigh-high boots, and air will inflate and deflate while your facial proceeds.

The Korean Skincare Experience

My favorite part of the facial was the oxygen-detoxifying mask. There’s a lot of air pollution in South Korea, and it is really humid during summer in Seoul. 

Your expert spa therapist will then apply the best Whoo products tailored to the skin needs you discussed in the consultation. 

I absolutely loved the mask pack. Your face is covered with soft cotton and the cool mask is applied.

It feels really soothing since the room is so comfortably warm and the only thing uncovered are your nostrils and mouth. Since my skin is so acne-prone, I needed extra products to help the acne on my jawline.

This part is so relaxing; within 5 minutes, you’ll be dead asleep after being pampered like a goddess. It’s the perfect place to relax, especially after a full body massage. 

After-Service Treatments

Have you ever heard of an Aqual Peel? If you have oily skin, this is one of the best treatments for you. 

I chose to upgrade my service because it came at a special price and I’m always happy with the results. 

After the facial ampoule, the Aqua Splus machine was brought out. This machine vacuums the excess sebum out of your pores and puts in hyaluronic acid to keep you moisturized.

The Verdict

If you’re in Seoul and looking to splurge, I cannot recommend Ohui Whoo Spa enough. From the moment you arrive, you’re treated like family.

The staff cares about your needs and will check up on you occasionally to ensure everything is perfect. The facilities are super clean, and the chandeliers, marble-like tile floors, comfy chairs, and relaxing atmosphere give it that luxurious feeling. 

In the end, you will be given deliciously sweet plum tea, a walnut pastry, and a face mask to put on 2-3 days after the facial for optimal results. These homecare samples are awesome, and it’s like getting a test run for their beauty products.

I have been a fan of The History of Whoo ever since my experience here. 

Everything about this place is rejuvenating and refreshing. You’ll be like, “Why didn’t I discover this place like… Yesterday?!”

The Result

Premium skincare is incredible; you could see the visible difference right after I got out! Even the next day I was still glowing! You can totally see why Korean celebrities go to get these luxurious treatments.

I highly recommend the Trazy 120-Minute Spa Package if you want that glowing Korean glass skin. It’s a wonderful experience for your Seoul travel and one I always rave about to other solo female travelers in South Korea. 

I usually don’t feel as confident without some BB Cream or light makeup, but it made my natural beauty shine through! I’m talking radiant, like when I was 22 years old.

Even after a week, while still following my normal skincare regimen, my entire face was still glowing.
