One of the receptionists who I booked my appt with on the phone and who checked me in was super nice. The one when I was leaving was alright, not overly nice. The place is super clean and they seem like they're constantly maintaining it, which is great. You take your shoes off once you leave the reception area. I did see two women who had put their shoes next to them at the area with mirrors, blow dryers, lotion, etc. I wish they would enforce not having any shoes down on the floor in that area because not really fair for the rest of us walking around barefoot. They show you to your locker and you put your stuff in there and fully undress and put on there cute pink robes. You can explore the diff rooms (Himalayan salt, near infared magnetic, clay, jade steam, etc) before or after your appointments depending on when you get there. They suggest you arrive 15-30 mins before the appt so you can check in and settle in. There's food you can order but looks like only on weekends. I went on a Wednesday and had called to request an appointment for a massage and facial. They were able to book me for a couple hours later. I got a 60 min Swedish massage. They massage you with a sheet covering your body for the first half and then oil massage without the sheet for second half. I would've preferred oil massage the whole time, so I'm glad I know for next time. The 60 min hydrating facial was nice and relaxing. The esthetician would spread stuff on my face then use tools to massage it around, sometimes with the steam machine on. I was so relaxed / didn't get enough sleep the previous night so fell asleep lolol. When I woke up there was a mask fully on my face. Not sure how long that portion is. I think I'd go back and try to facial that has milk and honey. The rooms were cool to go in as I'd never been to a jjimjilbang before. You have to be naked for the shower room which includes the hot mineral tub, an area where you can pour mugwort water on yourself, and the scrubs. But otherwise, the remaining rooms you wear your robe. There's free parking in the lot. They don’t offer a birthday discount. Worth a shot asking though heh. I believe Queen Bee in Culver City gives you 10% off for your birthday month.

🤩 BAM! Found my new happy place! Seriously, where has this Korean spa been all my life? How did I not find this gem sooner? It’s the perfect spot for mother-daughter time! Age 9 and up. Even though it's a smaller place, the variety of rooms is incredible: they have Jade, Charcoal, Infrared Magnet, Himalayan Salt, Ice, and Oxygen rooms, plus a Tea bath and Salt bath. The place is impeccably clean—seriously, bring socks and you might feel like you could ice skate across the floor! 🧊 We treated ourselves to the body scrub and a massage, and it was so relaxing. Just remember to book your services ahead of time (they ask for a credit card to hold the spot). They also have a cute cafe, but note that it's only open Friday through Sunday. Pro Tip for Parking: They have a small lot, but if you’re staying for the spa, aim for the spots closer to the street curb. To guarantee a good spot, try to get there before they even open, or you’ll be hunting for street parking! Stay hydrated while you’re there!

This was my first time venturing out to a new K spa in LA and I enjoyed Hugh. This woman’s only spa feels small but mighty, with a decent amount of amenities. The ladies who run the spa are very sweet. I got a body, facial & shampoo package, which was great value for the price. (admission price is waived when you purchase a service) A few tips before you go: they don’t offer slippers so bring your own clean shower shoes if you don’t want to walk around barefoot in the common areas. The parking lot is tight and packed so pad some extra time to find street parking in case. If you pay in cash you get free face masks (also bring cash for tip). I’m not sure how the food tastes but the yuzu slush I got was fantastic. Super refreshing and the perfect balance of not-too-sweet or bitter. Had a rejuvenating time here and would recommend.

My daughter and I had our very first experience at Hugh Korean Spa and it was sublime. I made the appointment for the glow buster on Oct 25th to enjoy the day before going to see Leudovico Einaudi at the Shrine Auditorium. I must say the day was pure perfection from the beginning to the end, and we are still glowing! My daughter was very hesitant because of the non clothing factor, but Sandra assured her that it is a safe place and even upgraded us both with a collagen mask! We continue to rave about our experience with all of the girlies and can't wait to enjoy the amazing amenities, food, and the relaxing vibes again. We are extremely grateful for everyone's hospitality, thank you, thank you!

Went as a group of 3 on a Sunday afternoon to detox from a crazy weekend.... and it was perfect! A little busy but there was plenty of space and areas to find and relax. Between us all we tried the scrub, V-steam, and back massage. Everyone was very happy with their treatments. The food is amazing, prepared by a very sweet granny, just order ahead and be patient, it is worth the wait. Spent a couple hours here, it definitely slows down after 3-4pm. Small business means small business operations, I'm not sure what others are complaining for. Will definitely come back next time in Ktown!
