The Asiana caveat#

Both remaining Asiana lounges are listed by Priority Pass, but entry reportedly works only when you are departing on a Star Alliance flight. On Korean Air or another carrier, plan on Sky Hub or Matina instead. A third, the Asiana Business Lounge (East) near gate 11, closed on October 1, 2026.

Where to go#

In Terminal 1, the east wing is where the quality is. Sky Hub East at 4.8 and Matina East at 4.7 are close; take Matina if you want a shower, Sky Hub if you want the longer five-hour stay. The west wing drops more than two points and is a fallback only. In Terminal 2, Sky Hub West at 4.5 edges Matina by a tenth, and again Matina has the showers.

The top three up close#

Sky Hub Lounge East (T1) at Seoul sits in Terminal 1, near gate 25. It rates 4.8 overall. It has a full bar and room for about 300 people. Hours on file: daily 00:00-21:30, 22:00-23:59. Recorded access: DragonPass, LoungeKey, Priority Pass.

Matina Lounge East (T1) at Seoul sits in Terminal 1, near gate 11. It rates 4.7 overall. It has beer and wine, 4 shower suites and room for about 250 people. Hours on file: daily 06:00-22:00. Recorded access: DragonPass, LoungeKey, Priority Pass.

Sky Hub Lounge West (T2) at Seoul sits in Terminal 2, near gate 247. It rates 4.5 overall. It has a full bar and room for about 150 people. Hours on file: daily 00:00-21:30, 22:00-23:59. Recorded access: DragonPass, LoungeKey, Priority Pass.
