If you’ve missed your last train in Tokyo, you may be forced to stay out all night, but that doesn’t mean you have to smell funky until sunrise. Here are some of Tokyo’s best late night onsen and super sento facilities offering a place to wash away the sins of the night and welcome the morning with a clean body and mind — or at least a clean body. 

What “Open All Night” Actually Means

Bathhouses that are open all night come with an important caveat — nearly all of them close the baths for cleaning each day. At Thermae-Yu it’s overnight, from 3 to 6 a.m. At Toyosu Manyo Club it’s 3 to 5 a.m. At Haneda’s Izumi Tenku no Yu, it’s mid-morning, from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. During these windows you can’t bathe, though lounges and rest areas stay open. Be sure to check each facility’s cleaning hours before going.

The Best All-Night Onsen and Super Sento in Tokyo

1. Thermae-Yu (Kabukicho, Shinjuku)

Kabukicho is a neighborhood built for staying up late, so it’s fitting that this Roman bath–themed spa never closes. The baths use Naka-Izu hot spring water, with indoor baths, an open-air bath and saunas. A reclining lounge and a dedicated women’s area give you somewhere to rest when the baths close for cleaning from 3 to 6 a.m. Towels and loungewear are included.

  • Price: General admission is ¥3,100 Monday through Thursday and ¥3,200 on Fridays, weekends, holidays and special days, with a ¥900 holiday surcharge on weekends and holidays. That covers up to 18 hours between 6 a.m. and midnight.
