Tokyo Yurakujo is a day-trip onsen near Narita Airport.

It boasts an easily accessible location from the airport, Tokyo city center, and Narita city, and you can enjoy the hot springs without needing to stay overnight. It's the perfect place to experience a hot spring bath, an essential part of any trip to Japan.

What's more, it's not just a simple onsen bath;

in the communal areas, you can wear a Hakata (traditional Japanese attire), dine, and relax, and it's great for taking photos at various photo spots.

With its diverse attractions,

I recommend immersing your tired body in the warm baths

and truly experiencing some healing.

Tokyo Yurakujo offers bus services to Narita Airport, Narita City, and Tokyo Station, making it incredibly easy to access by public transport.

The bus timetables below are based on the official website, but I recommend checking them again before your visit.

Yurakujo ↔ Narita Airport

Buses for round trips between Tokyo Yurakujo and Narita Airport operate almost every hour.

These buses are also used by the hotel that operates Yurakujo, so shuttle services start quite early in the morning.

Please note that buses departing at 5:00 AM and 6:20 AM pass through Terminal 3, and only drop-offs are allowed at airport stops.

Yurakujo ↔ Narita City

If you're exploring Narita, you can take advantage of the free shuttle bus that goes via Keisei Narita Station and AEON Mall.

At Keisei Narita Station, the bus stop is in front of the Comfort Hotel entrance at the East Exit. For AEON Mall, you can catch the Yurakujo shuttle bus from stop number 3.

Yurakujo ↔ Tokyo Station

There's also a direct bus from Tokyo Station, making it possible to fit in an onsen visit on your last day of travel.

As the times are limited, be sure to check the timetable before you depart.

Tokyo Yurakujo is located about a 15-minute drive from Narita Airport.

It's situated within the International Resort Hotel Yurakujo, but it has its own separate parking area.

Right in front of the onsen entrance is a large bus stop, and if you go a bit further inside, you'll find a free parking lot.

The parking space is ample, and there's no time limit, making it perfect for enjoying the onsen to its fullest.

Admission Fees & Discount Reservation Method

The admission fee for Tokyo Yurakujo includes

a 'hakata' (traditional robe) you can wear in the communal onsen areas,

as well as a body towel and a face towel.

If you're planning a visit to Tokyo Yurakujo,

I highly recommend purchasing your tickets in advance.

You can use them right away at up to a 20% discount,

making your onsen experience even more budget-friendly.

Entrance & Lobby

After parking, as you head towards the onsen entrance,

you'll find the area in front of the entrance is incredibly elaborately decorated.

Out front, a spectacular fountain show with music

takes place daily at scheduled times.

If you visit, be sure to catch it!

The fountain show times are posted at the entrance,

and you can watch it from the walkway connected to the communal area after entering.

A sign at the entrance states that tattoos are prohibited.

Forced expulsion without a refund is possible,

so if you have tattoos, visiting this onsen is not recommended.

After entering, you store your shoes in a locker,

take the key, and then head to the counter.

The lobby was truly massive,

sparkling with an incredible grandeur and luxury, quite a sight to behold!

The reception and payment areas were marked separately, but when we visited, the staff was only at the payment counter,

so we received our hakata robes, towels, and key before entering.

There seemed to be various styles of hakata robes available,

but my husband and I just happily took what was given to us,

so I'm not entirely sure if you get to pick your own.

On one side, you'd find a charming selection of hakata robes and bath products for sale,

alongside foot massage boards and a variety of drinks.

I was delightfully surprised to spot Birak Sikhye there!

Communal Areas Inside the Onsen

Tokyo Yurakucho, despite being a single-story facility,

is surprisingly expansive and a bit labyrinthine,

so having snapped a photo of the map proved incredibly useful!

From the lobby, you'll first diverge into separate changing rooms for men and women,

where you can store your belongings and slip into your comfy hakata robe,

before reuniting in the communal area.

The main bathing area (daiyokujo) for washing is located past this communal space,

featuring its own distinct changing rooms and hot spring baths.

So, our strategy was to first put on our hakata robes in the changing room,

then with just our phones in hand, we wandered around and enjoyed the vibrant communal spaces,

then gathered our towels, undergarments, and toiletries again,

and made our way to the hot springs for a relaxing soak.

If you're someone who prefers to wash up right after entering,

you can simply pack your essentials – underwear and toiletries – into your towel bag,

and head directly past the communal area to the main bathing area (daiyokujo).

Within the communal areas, you'll discover wonderful spaces to unwind with manga comics,

and even a fantastic kids' room, making it perfect for families!

At the heart of it all, you'll discover a charming array of shops, including restaurants and an arcade,

beautifully designed to transport you to an old-world Japanese street,

making it an absolutely perfect backdrop for snapping some memorable photos in your hakata robe!

Alongside charming photo zones, a central stage really caught my eye,

and it looked like they host a variety of exciting performances on weekends.

What's more, this spot seems to be a darling of Japanese film and TV!

I spotted numerous posters indicating it’s a popular filming location.

In fact, the Japanese drama 'Eye Love You,' starring Chae Jong-hyeop, which I absolutely loved,

featured this very place as a romantic date spot!

On one side, there's also a quiet relaxation space that can be reserved and used for a fee.

You can also get scrubs and massages, so a massage after a hot spring bath would be absolutely wonderful!

In front of the bathhouse entrance, there's a **small shrine**.

It's a Kumano Shrine dedicated to healing and rejuvenation, a spot where visitors can casually offer their respects.

Dining Options Inside the Onsen

Inside Tokyo Yurakucho, there were several eateries,

and the system is to **sit wherever you like and order yourself**.

From hearty **sukiyaki, tonkatsu, and grilled fish set meals** to lighter **one-bowl curry options**, the variety was great,

and the prices were quite reasonable.

Beyond full meals, there were also **simple snacks** perfect for enjoying with a refreshing beer.

Since it was evening, most people seemed to be enjoying their meals with a beer.

Relaxation Areas Within the Onsen

As you head back towards the lobby from the communal areas,

you'll also find **photo booths and claw machine games**.

A wonderfully **spacious relaxation area** was set up.

With vending machines for drinks and ice cream nearby,

it was perfect for enjoying a snack and unwinding.

I noticed a hidden door and decided to venture in,

discovering a fantastic spot perfect for a little nap or quiet rest.

It was a peaceful space, sectioned off by curtains,

ideal for lying down and relaxing.

Although the map indicated it as a men's **Ganbanyoku (rock bathing area)**,

it's actually **a co-ed space**.

We lay down on the warm floor to soothe our backs,

and since there was no one else around, we sat and chatted comfortably.

Please note that there's a separate women-only Ganbanyoku located next to the main bath's changing room.

Onsen Open-Air and Indoor Baths

Please note that photography is prohibited inside the main bath area,

so I've brought photos from their official website to give you a peek.

The main bath area boasts a spacious open-air bath,

and right next to it, you'll find individual tubs for a more private soak.

Dipping into the warm water on a chilly day

felt like my body completely melted into blissful relaxation.

Indoors, you'll discover several different baths and saunas.

As I moved from one to another, soaking and washing,

I was amazed at how quickly time just flew by!

The best part? Inside the hot spring facility, amenities like shampoo and body wash are thoughtfully provided.

This means you only need to pack your personal toiletries and underwear,

making it wonderfully easy to visit without a heavy bag!

And what's the perfect treat after a revitalizing hot spring soak? Milk, of course!

Compared to the coffee milk I tried previously,

the strawberry milk was absolutely much tastier and a real delight.

I actually visited this hot spring right after a golf game.

My body, tired and a bit chilled from the brisk weather,

truly appreciated just melting into pure relaxation – it was absolutely divine!

If you're planning an exciting golf trip to Narita or Chiba,

then listen up: I wholeheartedly recommend visiting a hot spring after your golf round! It's the ultimate way to unwind!

So, during your travels, I wholeheartedly recommend Tokyo Yurakucho. It's incredibly accessible and the perfect spot to capture amazing photos, make lasting memories (perhaps even with Hakata!), and truly unwind to feel refreshed and revitalized!
