Yukemuri-no-Shou — Restaurant in Kawasaki

Relaxing bathing area with many different rotenburo (outdoor baths) constantly overflowing with dark mineral hot spring water. There is a lounge area where you can relax in recliners and watch tv or fiddle on your phones or browse a collection of manga depending on your age range. The women’s bath section is upstairs so as to avoid any peeping eyes but they too have outdoor rooftop baths. There is an added section which costs a little extra where you can try out a hot steam room which sounds like it’s raining indoors, a couple of rock beds where you can lay down on the large towel they give you to see how long you can stand the dry heat.

Different types of bath in the facility. Black hot spring, which is typical in this area. The facility itself is not bad but it is just too crowded.

One of the best onsens in the area that is fairly accessible from Tokyo as well. Good selection of baths but the type of water is quite limited. It’s either normal hot water or this black oil like water which is very good. One of the better onsen waters in the area.

There’s also a sauna, chill lounge, massage chairs, and this whole downstairs with hot rocks (ganbanyoku). It’s a bunch of different rooms with various hot rocks and you lay down and just sweat essentially. May or may not be your thing. It does cost extra to use though.

Restaurant has good food but may have a long waiting time depending on time of day.

Place can get pretty crowded and at night (around 9pm) there can be a lot of university students or young adults and they can be pretty loud. Depends on the day...
