Onsen with a view but not for relaxing ?

I suggest to visit evening or night if the view is your main attraction.

Visit weekdays preferable early hours if you like it quiet and coming mainly for regeneration.

About the nightview: Awesome night view of Tokyo City including Tokyo tower, Skytree and more,

Layout: Onsen and dry Sauna on the upper floor. Hot Stone Sauna, relaxation space is on the lower floor, including Restaurants etc.

Sauna: The big sauna allows for many visitors, but due to constant come and go it doesn't stay hot for long. Some regulation is required for relaxation purpose.

Recommendation: Due to the size and number of visitors I suggest to come weekdays at odd times.

Verdict: For 2500 yen (entrance) + 900 yen (ganbanyoku) you will find other options in Tokyo that serve you well.

Ticket purchase, payment etc is all digital ( web registration, vending...

This place is only a few years old, and it's amazing! They feature indoor and outdoor hot spring baths, along with plenty of spots to relax, restaurants, and vending machines.

The highlight for me was the reclining chairs equipped with TVs. The speakers are located in the headrest, so other customers can't hear your audio. You can stay as long as you want, and they provide blankets you can borrow, as well as a selection of books to read.

I recommend arriving early if you want a front-row seat, as you can use your blanket to reserve your spot. I highly recommend this place; you could easily spend the...

It's a lovely new facility, clean and spacious. The price includes entrance to the flower garden in the same complex.

I only used the baths (not sauna). They're all at a good temperature and the outside bath has a great view over Tokyo (perhaps the only onsen in Tokyo to have this kind of view?). It must be particularly beautiful at night. The restaurant is reasonable and has a decent choice, too.

Access: We thought it was in Yomiuriland, so got the cable car from Keio-Yomiuriland Station. Turns out it's not actually in the theme park - from the cable car terminal you have to walk back, around the perimeter of the park, to a separate entrance (c.10mins). There's a shuttle bus from the station, which would have been easier. We took it on...
