Natural Hot Spring Hananoi

The Super Hotel's large public bath is available for day use. When you enter the Super Hotel, located on the south side of Tosabori Street, you'll see a large table directly in front of you with many tablets on it. You use these to check into the hotel, and a large selection button for "Day Use Bath" is displayed on the top menu. Just tap that and then choose your payment method. Day use costs 1000 yen. Credit cards are accepted. After payment, you'll receive a receipt and a piece of paper with the PIN code for the entrance door to the public bath. Show this at the front desk and you'll receive a rental towel and a waterproof paper wristband. Actually, a beautiful female staff member at the front desk will ask you if you're staying overnight as soon as you enter the entrance. When they asked how I was going, I told them I was there for a day trip to the baths, and they guided me to a tablet, showed me how to use it, and handed me a towel right there. They even wrapped a paper band around my hand and guided me to the elevator going down to the basement. I was surprised by their excellent service. When I went down to the basement by elevator, there was a shoe locker area. After putting my shoes away, I entered the entrance to the side, and there was a stylish lobby with several seats. At the back, there was a relaxation room with reclining seats and hammocks. There was also a massage reception counter. At the back, on the left and right, there were curtains for the men's and women's baths. The doors there had a keypad, so I entered the keypad code I had just used. It wasn't number, enter, but start, number, which confused me a bit. Inside was the changing room. The lockers were about 90 cm high and 30 cm wide, in two tiers. There were also a few 180 cm high and 30 cm wide lockers. There was a hair drying area with several hair dryers, which were, of course, free. There were also chairs. Cotton swabs were available, but there were no brushes, hair styling products, or aftershave lotion. There is a water cooler on the right side just before the bathroom entrance. There are two toilet stalls. Upon entering the bathroom, the right side is the washing area with about 10 seats. On the left side, from the front, there is a rain shower, a jet bath, a large knee-deep bathtub, and at the far end, a chest-deep jet bath. At the far right is a powerful chest-deep jet bath called the Kaiser Bath, and on the left side is a cold plunge pool with two booths, and at the back left is the sauna. The sauna has two tiers and can accommodate several people. Sauna mats are also available. There is no television. There are three relaxation chairs in the bathroom. There is also a reclining chair-type heated tiled Kings Two chairs There is no outdoor relaxation space. The water in the large bath is a light brown color, giving it the feel of a real hot spring; unlike the imitation natural hot springs found in typical public bathhouses, you can enjoy a genuine hot spring experience. After your bath, you can relax in the lobby of the large bathhouse or the relaxation room, or you can take a break in the stylish terrace located in the alley-like space behind the front desk on the first floor. It's a 5-minute walk from Awaza Subway Station. If you use the Sennichimae Line, it's only 3 stops from Namba Station without transfers. I was surprised at how stylish Super Hotels have become! I think it's excellent value for money.

Today, I went to Naniwa Natural Hot Spring Hananoi in Nishi-ku, Osaka City with two sauna friends to explore a new sauna! This place has a sauna attached to the large public bath at a Super Hotel. Honestly, I went in expecting it to be just a small extra! The lobby is stylish and fashionable. After checking in at the electronic reception machine, I was given a towel and took a look around. There's a relaxation area where you can also smoke. As I stepped through the curtain, I was greeted by an uplifting object and headed to the bathing area. The bathing area has an auto-lock system where you need to enter a code to enter—this was a first for me! The lockers in the changing room are huge, big enough to fit a suitcase. I quickly took off my clothes and went into the bathing area. And what a surprise! Wow, the hot spring scent is amazing! It's great! 👍 The shower pressure in the washing area is also high, which is a plus! 👍 I made it in time for the automatic löyly (sauna steam) at 0 and 30 minutes after the bath was rinsed and got to experience it. Wow, it's great! There are two hot air generators on the ceiling, and they do a great job! They send the heat waves all the way down to your feet. And the löyly was super long—I couldn't endure it for 5 minutes! 😅💦💦 The cold bath, made from cooled hot spring water, is 14℃—absolutely refreshing! 😆 The break after the cold bath was incredibly relaxing! Hmm... I enjoyed 5 sets in total! For my break after the 5th set, I tried resting in the changing room, which was better than I expected! The relaxation area is dimly lit with comfortable chairs—you could easily fall asleep there! (lol) The all-you-can-drink acrylics in the relaxation space on the first floor are also great! I definitely want to stay at this Super Hotel! Today's post-bath meal was a yakisoba set meal.

It was surprisingly good! Even though it's been renovated, it's been around for a while, so some parts show their age, but it was well-equipped 😊 I went on a Sunday, and it was crowded as expected. Everyone loves saunas! The sauna was packed with people. The temperature was just right, around 90 degrees Celsius, and the automatic löyly (steam) activated every 30 minutes. The cold plunge pool was small, barely big enough for two people. After the bath, you can enjoy free Akuri (a type of yogurt drink) at the relaxation lounge! There are also power outlets, so you can charge your devices as much as you want! It's close to my house, so I'll be going regularly!

I came here to soothe the fatigue of working overtime. I went on a Saturday, so the price was 1,500 yen. It's great to find a place like this where you can take a natural hot spring bath in the middle of the city. Shampoo, conditioner, and body soap are provided, and they all smelled lovely. The baths include a large communal bath, a waterfall bath, a cold bath, a jacuzzi (?), and a sauna. You can also enjoy a variety of drinks from the drink bar after your bath, so I think it's good value for money. My fatigue was thoroughly relieved, and my skin is now smooth!✨

I dropped in to try the hot spring and sauna. It's a natural hot spring where the water is pumped up from underground, and it was a wonderful experience in the middle of the city. The sauna was an automatic loyly stone type, and it was hot, about 90°C. The cold bath was amazing, using cooled hot spring water below 14°C. It felt amazing. The paid massage service and the hammock rest area were also great. I'll definitely go again.
