Candeo Hotels Tokyo Shimbashi - A Tattoo-Friendly Hot Spring in Minato, Tokyo

CANDEO HOTELS Tokyo Shimbashi offers a modern urban onsen escape perched above the electric energy of central Tokyo. This sophisticated hotel's crown jewel—the 12th-floor Sky Spa—delivers a quintessentially Japanese bathing experience with breathtaking panoramic views of Tokyo's glittering skyline. Here, the traditional practice of communal bathing meets contemporary luxury, creating an oasis of calm amid one of the world's most dynamic cities.

​

Located in bustling Shimbashi, just steps from major transport connections and iconic attractions like Tokyo Tower and Hamarikyu Gardens, this urban retreat provides the perfect balance between exploration and relaxation. The Sky Spa's extended hours allow you to soak away the day's adventures while watching the city lights twinkle below—an authentic Japanese bathing experience with a distinctly metropolitan twist.

Cover-Up Required: This onsen allows tattooed guests if tattoos are covered. Please use waterproof tattoo cover-ups (often available at reception) when using public bathing areas. Staff are usually discreet and helpful if you need assistance.

• Extended Access Hours: Enjoy the therapeutic waters from afternoon through early morning (3pm-11am), perfect for night bathing under the stars
• Complete Wellness Circuit: Combine traditional bathing with sauna experiences (unique dry sauna for men, refreshing mist sauna for women)

• Business District Convenience: Ideal location for business travelers seeking authentic Japanese relaxation without venturing far from central Tokyo

The Sky Spa elevates traditional Japanese bathing with its stunning urban backdrop. After entering the gender-separated facilities, you'll follow the time-honored ritual of thoroughly cleansing your body at the washing stations before immersing yourself in the waters. The spacious indoor bath allows for full-body relaxation, while the highlight—the open-air rotenburo—invites you to soak beneath the open sky while gazing at Tokyo's architectural wonders.

​

The bathing circuit is thoughtfully designed for maximum therapeutic benefit. Begin with a session in the gender-specific sauna (invigorating dry heat for men, gentle mist for women), followed by a refreshing cold plunge to stimulate circulation, and finally, extended relaxation in the mineral-rich waters. This contrast therapy helps release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and induce a state of profound relaxation—especially valuable after navigating Tokyo's energetic streets.

For the optimal experience, book your stay directly through the hotel's official channels. While the Sky Spa doesn't require separate reservations once you're a guest, securing your preferred room type in advance is recommended, especially during peak tourist seasons.
