EDO-YU RYOGOKU: A Modern Japanese Bathhouse Experience
Experience a modern take on traditional Japanese bathing in a luxurious spa-like setting at EDO-YU RYOGOKU.
Located in the heart of Tokyo's Ryogoku neighborhood, EDO-YU RYOGOKU provides a contemporary take on the traditional Japanese bathhouse, known as a sento. This 'super sento' offers a more extensive and luxurious experience than a typical neighborhood bath, with a focus on relaxation and cultural immersion. The bathing area is beautifully designed, featuring a contemporary mural of Mount Fuji and a variety of baths, including hot, cold, jacuzzi, herbal, and carbonated options. You can also enjoy Finnish and mid-temperature saunas, as well as a bedrock bathing area where you can lie on heated natural stones to promote blood circulation. For those seeking extra pampering, spa services like massages and body treatments are available. EDO-YU RYOGOKU also provides a comfortable and relaxing environment beyond the bathing facilities. You'll find relaxation lounges, quiet corners, and nap-inducing recliners, complete with free Wi-Fi. A restaurant on-site allows you to savor authentic Japanese cuisine after a rejuvenating soak. The bathhouse is open from 10:00 AM to 8:30 AM the next day, making it a convenient option for both daytime and overnight visits. Note that tattoos are generally prohibited.
