Seoul Station (West) luggage storage

About Seoul Station

Seoul Station is by far the busiest and most important train station in Korea. Located in central Seoul, this is the central hub not only for the Seoul Metro but also the terminus of Korea’s highly efficient KTX bullet trains. If you’re traveling throughout Korea by train, there’s a good chance you'll pass through Seoul Station. Similarly, you’ll likely rely on Seoul Station at some point during your stay in the capital. 

Navigating this vast metropolis’s public transit system can be daunting for foreign travelers, making it all the more important to plan ahead if you need a place to store your luggage. Our luggage storage service is the best option near Seoul Station, but you can choose any of our dozens of partners throughout the city, including the popular spot at GS25, 8, Samil-daero 17-gil, Jongno-gu.

• There's an app: Using the intuitive search function on the Bounce mobile app or website, you can find the most convenient storage spot on the go and book in just a few minutes. 
• Flat rate pricing: Because we have a standard flat rate in each city, there will never be any surprises or hidden fees when you go to collect your stuff.

How luggage storage is different from train station lockers

• The ultimate flexibility: Storage lockers at train stations or museums are often small, especially if you have large items and heavy suitcases. We partner with locations that can fit a wide variety of bag sizes and specialty items. You can also add time to your booking if needed.
• Enhanced Security and Protection: Each reservation has a QR confirmation code that makes your check-in more convenient and also ensures that only you have access to your belongings. We rigorously vet every luggage storage location to ensure it will handle every item with professional care. Can the same be said for your average locker?
• Friendly service: Bounce partners with local businesses and shops (so don't expect a formal luggage storage office) to provide both convenient locations and a pleasant user experience. It's not uncommon for Bounce users to ask the attendant for local tips, our locations tend to be open from 9 AM to 8 PM, with some operating much later than that.
