Teriha Spa Resort — Hotel in Fukuoka

This 24hour spa just opened at the beginning of August. There is a wide variety of sex segregated baths of different elements, temperatures and colours. Different themed dry saunas are unisex on another floor. There’s a manga library, televisions in the lounge area, a work area with outlets to plug into.||Everyone is given a set of 2 “uniforms” to change into upon entry.

Bean bags, massage chairs, USB charging areas all free to use. Smoking area and restaurants. The baths are really nice too. And you can pay extra for massages and other beauty treatments. Great place to relax for a day! I think its very difficult to get to by public transportation so going by...

I am German and I went here with my Japanese host family and friends. It is a very enjoyable place with a very nice selection of baths and overall good food options after bathing. The location is a bit difficult, however there are regular buses to Hakata station to accommodate for this. Overall I very much enjoyed the experience.

And as usual I had some nice enjoyable talks with some Japanese people, usually after I started talking to them when they wouldn't stop staring. That is one habit that one has to expect as a foreigner when visiting Japanese spas/onsen. Just remember, it isn't meant or...
