01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
The standout at Shinonome-yu is a square, deep soaking tub surrounded by jet baths and a reclining bath. One visitor found the water too hot and decided not to get in, opting for the herbal bath instead. The choice between testing yourself in a hotter pool and taking it easy in another is part of the appeal.
Several visitors describe a range of facilities, including deep and shallow baths, jet baths, an herbal bath, a cold plunge, an electric bath and a sauna. One way to enjoy them is to work up a sweat in the sauna before cooling off in the plunge. Some visitors describe the cold bath as using groundwater; another singled out how cold it was.
Visitors have also commented that the bathing area and changing room are relatively spacious, making this a place to consider if you like moving between several baths. One visitor reported that soap and shampoo are not provided, so it is best to bring your own. The bathhouse normally opens from 15:00 until 0:00 the following day and is closed on Tuesdays.
