【Tokyo – Sugamo】Enter the real Onsen while enjoying the four seasons of Japan - Tokyo Somei Onsen Sakura

This time I wrote an article about Tokyo. And I updated this article in January 2025 to incorporate my findings from this research, along with the latest information for 2025.

Another reason for updating the article is the growing interest in tours that allow visitors to safely and deeply experience Tokyo. Because Tokyo is a city that continues to develop at a dizzying pace and in complex ways, tourists visiting for the first time find it extremely difficult to discover the truly excellent spots beloved by locals.

This is why food tours led by knowledgeable local guides who know Tokyo inside and out have been gaining popularity, as they take visitors through Tokyo's maze of establishments.

In fact, Magical Trip's tour, which ranked #1 among all tours on Tripadvisor, has been receiving numerous applications.

If you want to experience authentic izakayas beloved by Shibuya locals, try the "Shibuya Bar Hopping Night Tour in Tokyo," which is ranked #2 on Magical Trip. A knowledgeable local guide who knows Shibuya inside and out will take you to spots where you can enjoy genuine Japanese cuisine.

And if you want to make the most of Tokyo's nightlife, you absolutely must join the "Tokyo Bar Hopping Night Tour in Shinjuku," which is rated #1 on Tripadvisor. You can safely explore Shinjuku's historic retro drinking districts and Kabukicho, the largest entertainment district in Asia, with an expert guide who knows Shinjuku thoroughly.

We hope you'll have a wonderful time experiencing everything Tokyo has to offer by joining a Magical Trip tour!

Introduction


## Tokyo Somei Onsen Sakura

Tokyo Somei Onsen Sakura is a hot spring located in central Tokyo. The buildings have a Japanese-style, and you can enjoy the Japanese gardens. Especially from the entrance lobby, you can enjoy the four seasons of Japan through the various flowers and trees.
Although the building itself is Japanese style, it also incorporates modern style chairs and sofas.
Therefore, if you’re not used to tatami or sitting on the floor, you can relax with no problem.
The hot spring tubs are made of cypress, so you can sense the peculiar smell of the cypress. The hot water is set at 38 degrees, so those who aren’t used to hot springs can enjoy as well. In the outdoor hot spring, you can take a bath inside a stone tub.

Also, if you pay additional fees, you can enjoy ganbanyoku, or bedrock bat. The bedrock bath uses a special stone called Amaterasu stone. It is a large monolith which you can find it only here in Japan.

There are also restaurants we recommend you eat at while enjoying the Japanese garden. Furthermore, there are esthetic salon which you can experience healing such as body scrub, care, etc.
