    Interview with Bentenyu (Zenimoto)
    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    The reclining bath, sitting bath, high power bath, and tub bath all have a switch that lights up for two minutes. The medicinal bath contains herbal medicines, and the men's and women's baths alternate daily between a sauna and mist sauna and a sauna and open-air bath.
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    Above the bath, you can enjoy painted pictures of Mount Daisetsu and the wind gods and thunder gods, and on the other side, watercolor paintings of the nearby Sakura Park and Nishima Tenjin Shrine.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?
    The building is 74 years old and has high ceilings.
    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    The bath salts for the open-air bath change every day, and there is a drying box for your coat on rainy days.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?

    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    The entire facility uses soft water, so you can enjoy the quality of the water, which is similar to that of a sodium hot spring.
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    There is no sauna, but there is a high-temperature bath, a medium-temperature bath, and a cold bath, so you can enjoy alternating between hot and cold baths.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?
    You can relax in the design by Kentaro Imai, a leading expert in hot spring facility design.
    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    Many foreign tourists visit the area. Depending on the time of day, you might be able to enjoy an exotic atmosphere. Why not try interacting with them?
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?
    We are proud of the fact that we rarely have to close temporarily. I think that the fact that we are open whenever you come gives you a sense of security.

    The key features of this bath include a spacious lounge and a large TV, allowing you to relax after your bath.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?

    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    During the summer (July to September), the regular rock bath area is turned into lukewarm water, allowing you to bathe while cooling off from the heat of your body.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?

    Renewed and reopened on November 26, 2023. With the concept of “Nothingness,” the entire bathhouse has been renovated into a chic space where you can forget your daily life and fully relax. The open-air bath features hot water (with a powerful jet), and the indoor area offers four types of baths: a medium-temperature deep bath, a shallow bath, and a cold bath. Inside the bathhouse, you can enjoy a relaxing time while listening to the sound of the famous “Matsunoyu Waterfall,” a beloved feature even before the renovation. A family booth has also been installed, allowing parents and children to wash comfortably together. In the men’s open-air area, guests can enjoy an outdoor bath while admiring a painted mural created by the previous owner. Without adding a sauna, Matsunoyu focuses on the quality of its hot water—please relax and enjoy this newly reborn bathhouse. Designed by architect Kentaro Imai.

    Interview with Shinjuku Ochiai Onsen Matsunoyu (Kasahara)
    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    The water used at our bathhouse is natural underground water drawn from a deep well, rich in metasilicic acid and exceptionally gentle on the skin. This pure water is used throughout the facility, including for showers and faucets.
    ※ Our water has been officially certified as natural hot spring water. Starting Wednesday, November 26, we will reopen as the “Hot Spring Public Bath — Shinjuku Ochiai Onsen Matsunoyu.”For more information, please see the homepage below.
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    Our concept is “So-Sento” — a *Plain Public Bathhouse.*
    Water, space, light, and the connection of hearts.
    We hope you will experience the true charm of a public bathhouse that emerges precisely from its simplicity.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?
    Our bathhouse was founded in 1923 (Taisho 12) and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2023 (Reiwa 5).
    To mark this milestone, we carried out a large-scale renovation under the direction of sento architect Kentaro Imai.

    Shinjuku Ochiai is a neighborhood deeply rooted in public bath culture, with six sento located within a 10-minute walk from our facility (as of January 1, 2024).
    Given this environment, our renovation aimed to create a space where local residents can experience a true sense of relaxation through the everyday presence of a public bath.
    Are there seasonal or time-of-day ways to enjoy this place?
    ◆ Seasonal Baths ◆
    Hot Bath (October–June), Warm Bath (January–December), Medium-Temperature Bath, Tepid Bath (July–September), Cold Bath, Open-Air Bath (July–September: Cold Bath / October–June: Hot Bath), Jet Bath, Standing Shower, Outdoor Air Bath, Herbal Bath
    ※ The months in parentheses indicate the planned operation period.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?
    Not a “bathhouse with nothing,” but a “bathhouse that embraces nothingness.”
    In today’s world—overflowing with schedules, things, and information—this is a place that invites you to unwind and recharge.
    Many guests visit us as a space for “digital detox” or as their own “third place.”

    Interview with Fukunoyu (Takada)
    What part of your baths or facilities are you most proud of?
    The groundwater pumped up from 100m underground has been well received by customers, who often say that it warms the water in their homes, especially in the winter.
    What do you especially want first-time visitors to enjoy here?
    The decorations on the entrance change every month.
    Any history or unique commitment about this bathhouse we should know?
    The coffered ceiling in the changing room, which was built in 1950, is rare these days, and customers sometimes find themselves gazing up at it.
    Why do regulars keep coming back, in your opinion?
    It's rarely crowded, so you can take your time bathing.
