Coin lockers are the cheapest option — but they fill up on busy days, and sometimes a shop near your hotel or on your route is simply easier. Shops and cafes across Seoul hold luggage by the hour or day, booked in about a minute on your phone.

Good to know
Is my luggage safe?
Each booking is protected, and spots are vetted shops and cafes — not random lockers. You get a confirmation and your bags are tagged on drop-off.
How much does it cost?
From about ₩2,900 per bag per day — a little more than a coin locker, but you can book ahead, store any size, and leave it overnight.
Do I need to book in advance?
You can book on the spot, but reserving on your phone guarantees space on busy days and takes under a minute.
What if my suitcase is oversized?
Shops take bags of any size, including cases and sports gear that do not fit a coin locker.
Can I store overnight or for several days?
Yes — unlike most coin lockers, shop storage works for overnight and multi-day stays.
🪙 Try the subway coin lockers first
Subway coin lockers are cheaper (from ₩2,200 for 4 hours) and self-service. Use a shop when the lockers near you are full, or when you need longer or overnight storage.
