I'd been wanting to go here for a while as a day trip but heard it was too difficult. It's not. Just take the Shinkasen or the Shinjuku Liner and your up there in no time. So I decided to spend the night in this area...not my best choice. If your in this area Shika no Yu is excellent. Great sulfur waters, beautiful and clean. The history dates back to the 7th century and the onsen is old, rustic and charming. Nearby, there is a temple and the Valley of Jizo which you can enjoy in about 2 hours. If your an Onsen buff this is not to be missed. If your into 1st class and luxury...probably not the place to go. If you stay in the area nearby Nasu Harvest or Nasu Sanraku are very nice.

After being refused from another onsen because in a group of 5 I was the one with tattoos (although very small), and not being allowed in even if covered them up, Tenzan accepted us and were nothing but friendly and kind. So nice and relaxing, despite having (unknowingly) made the mistake of starting with the last "pool" - the hottest. It was an incredible experience to quietly sit outside, in the rain, surrounded by bamboo and with your body submerged in warm water. Beware low blood pressure people! It will make it even lower so be very careful - you will feel dizzy/lightheaded in there and after. A little reading break in the nap/resting room is mandatory, where you can quietly enjoy the sound of the river running through a very small waterfall just outside two massive windows. Very beautiful views. A must-do for those who enjoy doing nothing! Afterwards we tried the food at the restaurant which was equally nice (see photos). First photo was in the morning, last photo was the time we left. That's how good of a time we spent there. Highly recommend!

The most relaxing and special experience. They are trialling letting in visitors with tattoos. Any tattoos larger than about the size of a hand need to be covered with a flesh tone, waterproof, plastic bandage that can be purchased from the reception for a couple hundred yen. The staff were so friendly and all spoke quite good English. So many different bath options and lots of different add on options like massages etc. Huge relaxation/lounge areas and two restaurants. Simply cannot recommend it highly enough especially if you’re staying in the Shinjuku area.

Toyko's largest artificial hot spring complex is filled with a seemingly never-ending series bathtubs with different temperatures, textures, and foci, such as the special foot baths.

We wanted to do something authentic on our last full day in Tokyo- after visiting the giant Gundam statue in Odaiba, we decided to head over to Oedo Onsen Monogatari. It was a bit of a walk from the Diver City Plaza, so try to take a bus (I believe there were buses/shuttles running to that area but we walked because it was a nice day). Once you enter, take off shoes, get a wristband (it will be charged each time you purchase something - food, souvenir, extra onsen service) and choose a yukata to wear around the facility. We really liked the outdoor foot bath (included in admission price) and the surrounding gardens, as well as the large tatami room for relaxation. Nice photo opportunities throughout the place. For the two of us, the cost for everything (admission, ice cream, one drink) came to $70 USD. You can also have a meal in the facility (extra charge) and they provide free water/green tea! Overall, a fun and relaxing experience!
