Jonan Onsen

Jonan Onsen

This is the best example of a modern sento that still has the sento feel to it. Like Kasamatsu in Kobe but for a bigger sento. There are all the baths one would want to have in a very traditional terraced layout with the electric/bubble at the top flowing down 2 levels till the main deep bath. Along the back wall is a cold water, powerful sunflower jet bath and the dry sauna. The electric bath was arranged in a way that made it easy to get your legs massaged--great after a hike. On the wall was a mosaic of a mountain scene of Kyoto's Daimonji. The 大 kanji being lit in red--something I had never seen before in a sento. Overall an amazing place and a great example of what a modern sento can be. Also I saw people with tattoos in the bath so that makes this great option for people with tattoos who want to try out a sento but want the security of going to a newer looking bath.
