Discover why Dormy Inn Premium Ginza is the top choice for a true hot spring experience in Tokyo. Find out about its prime location, real onsen, and amazing value.
When you're searching for a hotel with a large public bath in Ginza,
Make sure you check this first.
Is it a truly natural hot spring?
I was torn between the Mitsui Garden Hotel Ginza Gochome and
the Dormy Inn Premium Ginza.
The reason I ultimately chose Dormy Inn? It's a genuine hot spring!
Other places often just offer baths with heated tap water.
I booked my stay through Trip.com.
When I did my research, it was around ~$159 per night,
and it was actually the lowest price available.
🔻🔻
1. Dormy Inn Premium Ginza: Location
📍 Dormy Inn Premium Ginza
6-chōme-16-8 Ginza, Chuo City, Tokyo 104-0061 Japan
Location: A breezy 5-minute walk from Higashi-Ginza Station
18 minutes by subway to Asakusa Station
26 minutes by subway to Shinjuku Station
I arrived from Narita Airport
on the 1,500 yen Ginza bus.
The journey from Narita Airport took about an hour,
and after hopping off the bus, it was just a 10-minute walk
straight to the hotel!
I arrived earlier than the official check-in time,
so I dropped off my luggage and kicked off my itinerary.
I had a moment of panic when I realized I'd misplaced my luggage tag when it was time to pick it up,
but thankfully, they said a passport would suffice.
(The staff member was incredibly kind and helpful!)
2. The Double Room
After checking in, I got my room key and the essential hot spring password.
You'll need your card key to access the elevators!
The hot spring password is specifically for entering the women's bath.
I had booked a standard double room,
and for a Japanese hotel, it felt surprisingly spacious.
Absolutely enough space to open two large suitcases!
What's unique is that the bedroom, bathroom, and vanity area are
separated by a sliding door.
Because of this, I heard **absolutely no outside noise**.
As someone who's a light sleeper, this was a definite win!
Having a separate sofa and table was perfect,
as it allowed me to comfortably enjoy the complimentary ice cream after a relaxing hot spring soak.
While most Japanese hotels typically feature a bathtub,
here, perhaps because of the fantastic large public bath,
there was only a shower booth.
It was refreshing and not humid, which I actually found even better!
Basic amenities like a toothbrush kit, comb, and cotton swabs were all
provided.
Need more? Just ask at the front desk!
The hairdryer was a Panasonic model,
so it delivered excellent, powerful airflow.
The mini-fridge was stocked with two bottles of mineral water and a financier pastry,
all complimentary.
The financier was refreshingly delicious.
On the shelf by the TV, there's a towel basket,
and when you head to the hot springs, you can just take this whole basket with you.
(I didn't know this, so I ended up carrying all my stuff separately,
but everyone else was comfortably bringing the whole basket! 😂)
3. The Grand Bath
Grand Bath Location: Basement 1F
Operating Hours: 3:00 PM ~ 10:00 AM the next day
Women's Bath requires an entry password
(Provided at check-in)
The women's bath and men's bath are separate.
Of course, photography inside is not allowed,
so I brought these photos from the official website.
The actual baths are 100% identical to these photos! Haha.
Once you enter, head to the shampoo bar first!
It's on the left, just past the bath entrance.
You can choose and use any shampoo you like,
and there was even a cooling shampoo, which felt incredibly refreshing to use.
Perhaps because it's natural hot spring water,
the bath water had a slightly dark color.
It's a sodium bicarbonate hot spring, so there was no particular odor.
While the grand bath isn't huge,
it had everything you could need:
a hot spring bath, a cold bath, and even a sauna.
Inside, there are lockers with locks,
so I could bathe without worrying about my belongings.
You can go wearing the loungewear provided in your room.
They don't provide separate towels at the bath, so be sure to bring them from your room!
There was also a product from kinujo, a Japanese premium hairdryer brand,
which I tried,
and my hair felt incredibly soft afterwards.
After a relaxing bath,
you can indulge in some free ice cream.
I chose a Hershey's Monaka! 🤎
After bathing in the hot spring water,
my skin felt incredibly smooth.
I originally planned to only go in the evening,
but it was so wonderful that I visited again in the morning! ♥️
In the morning, instead of ice cream, they offer yogurt.
4. Breakfast
Breakfast Hours: 6:30 AM ~ 9:30 AM
(Last entry 9:00 AM)
Honestly, this hotel isn't just famous for its grand bath.
Its breakfast is also renowned!
The luxury of being able to enjoy Kaisendon (seafood rice bowl) first thing in the morning!
It's a buffet, but you can take the food you've plated and enjoy it as if it were a full-course meal served at your table.
With everything laid out like this, it looks so extravagant and generous,
just like a fancy ryokan breakfast, haha!
You can even warm up your bread in a Balmuda toaster.
But the rice!! It was so incredibly delicious that
even as a huge bread lover, I kept going back for more Japanese dishes.
Definitely overate first thing in the morning!
And when you're done with breakfast and heading out,
you can grab a coffee to go.
5. Complimentary Food & Beverage Services
I'll be honest with you,
one of the biggest reasons I chose Dormy Inn Ginza was
definitely the complimentary snack service.
Ice cream, yogurt,
coffee and sodas,
and even ramen –
all of this is completely free.
You can grab as much ice cream as you want from the freezer located in front of the hot spring on the first basement floor.
(Having ice cream after the hot spring was absolutely divine!)
In the evenings, there's ice cream, and in the mornings, you'll find yogurt.
On the second-floor table area, you'll find a
coffee machine and a beverage dispenser,
so you can enjoy free drinks anytime you like.
Beyond coffee and green tea,
they also had Coke, Calpis, Oolong tea, Ginger Ale,
and Minute Maid.
But perhaps what they're most famous for is, of course, the ramen.
Ramen Serving Hours: 9:30 PM - 11:00 PM
You can enjoy complimentary Shoyu (soy sauce flavored) ramen.
Honestly, I thought it might be lacking since it was free,
but it came with generous toppings like egg and bamboo shoots –
it was the real deal!
The noodles were deliciously chewy too.
And the portion was quite generous,
so I ordered one bowl and shared it with my husband.
As of August 21st today,
here's a price comparison across different platforms
when searching for a one-night stay on September 27th.
These prices are for rooms without breakfast, with free cancellation available.
Trip.com | Agoda | Booking.com |
~$163~ | ~$175~ | ~$180~ |
For your reference, if you include breakfast,
Agoda and Trip.com are quite similar, both around ~$186 for one night,
so you can just book through whichever platform you use most often.
This hotel is so popular that booking platforms even display warnings like this.
It's probably best to quickly book through your usual platform!
Recommended for Travelers Who...
- For those seeking a hotel with a natural hot spring grand bath in Ginza
- For those who truly value a delicious breakfast
While Ginza is absolutely brimming with incredible dining spots,
the breakfast at Dormy Inn Ginza is truly exceptional,
and I wholeheartedly recommend you give it a try.
The public bath at Dormy Inn Premium Ginza is a genuine natural hot spring, not just tap water heated for bathing. It's a sodium bicarbonate hot spring, so the water color is slightly dark, but it has no odor.
From Narita Airport, you can take the Ginza 1,500 yen bus. The bus ride takes approximately one hour, and after getting off the bus, it's about a 10-minute walk to the hotel.
The Standard Double Room is quite spacious for a Japanese hotel, with enough room to open two suitcases. The bedroom and the bathroom/vanity area are separated by a partition door, which helps block out outside noise. Since there's a large public bath, the guest rooms only have a shower booth.
Complimentary ice cream is offered in the evening and yogurt in the morning, both available in front of the hot spring on B1F. On the 2nd-floor table area, you can enjoy coffee and soft drinks (such as Coca-Cola, Calpis, etc.) at any time. Additionally, complimentary Shoyu Ramen (soy sauce flavored ramen) is available from 9:30 PM to 11:00 PM.
Breakfast is available from 6:30 AM to 9:30 AM, with the last entry at 9:00 AM. You can enjoy Kaisen-don (seafood rice bowl) from the morning, warm your bread in a Balmuda toaster, and even take coffee to go when you leave.
