A temple-roofed neighbourhood bath in business since 1916, in a 1952 building with a high ceiling, small koi gardens, koi tile art and a Mt Fuji mural with a rabbit riding a carrot. The deep tubs are filled with well water heated over a wood fire, and the bandai-style front desk still watches both changing rooms.

Good to know
- The tubs run very hot (Time Out could barely manage the middle one): start in the smallest herbal tub.
- Wash or at least rinse thoroughly at the taps before getting into the tubs, and keep your towel out of the water (Tokyo Sento Association etiquette).
- Tattoos accepted without cover-up according to Time Out's tattooed editors (2026).
