Part 3: There and Trashed Again: A Waygook’s
Tale (because ‘Party Rooms’ was too difficult to come up with something for…)
Seriously, this article was ready two days
ago, but we couldn’t come up with a suitable pun.
Do you like hot tubs? Saunas? Noraebangs?
Pool tables? How about having them all in one room? Better yet, with all of
your friends, and no one else? Then why not spend the night in a party room!?
The party room is an awesome innovation
that gives you and a group of friends a setting outside of the norm in which to
hang out and have a good time. Birthdays, anniversaries, office parties, or
just because you want to, there are many reasons to try this out at least once.
Mate Hotel is prime as it has a HUGE
two-level room complete with Noraebang and a small swimming pool or hot tubs
and a terrace. The décor is a little classy and there are prices that will stop
your pulse until you factor in the number of people you’re splitting them
between. Not EVERY Mate Hotel Party Room is the same (It’s a chain with several
locations), so make sure you do your research and know which room you’re
getting before you go. No sense bringing your swim suit to a pool table.
Hotel M, near Sungshin, has an even bigger
one. Pool table, noraebang, hot tub, lasers. Oh yeah, lasers. Woot.
These are just two options in a giant list
of choices. There are bound to be some handy to a good location for you, and
also likely that they will match your needs. If you don’t mind the prices, and
have the people to make it worth it, go for it. It’s bound to be a memorable
night. Be aware that time and numbers are a factor in many of the prices and
plan well.
Thus concludes the Three-part series about
having fun in Korea that differs from the normal, expected cultural (palaces
and teahouses), and counter-cultural (Clubs, Hofs, and PC Rooms). These aren’t the
only ways to enjoy yourself in Korea, so if you have anything you’ve done or
have heard about, leave it in the comments to share with everyone.
