Tokyo Toshima City
A central Tokyo retreat where you can unwind body and mind with exceptional sauna sessions and a variety of baths
"Times Spa Resta" is a day-use spa facility for adults in Higashi-Ikebukuro, Toshima City, Tokyo. In the Finnish sauna, powerful heat from auto löyly and aufguss envelops your entire body, while the cold plunge bath and open-air cooling down in the outdoor area guide you into a deep state of totonou. The women’s bath area also features a low-temperature clear mist sauna, allowing guests to enjoy both beauty and relaxation at the same time. In addition to the open-air baths and a variety of tubs, including a high-concentration carbonated spring, the facility also offers an exceptional relaxation lounge and restaurant, carefully designed with attention to lighting, music, and fragrance. Away from the bustle of the city, you can fully enjoy a refined retreat experience.

The open-air baths, where you can feel the changing seasons, offer the openness of a resort even while being in the heart of the city in Ikebukuro. The men’s bath area features a white ion bath surrounded by fine bubbles, while the women’s bath area includes a jet foam bath, and the open-air space even offers movie screenings. The indoor baths include a carbonated spring that promotes improved blood flow and reclining baths with a pleasant water flow, gently easing away your daily fatigue.

An authentic Finnish sauna in the men’s bathing area, filled with the scent of wood. Auto löyly activates at regular intervals, bringing just the right level of humidity into the room and encouraging comfortable sweating without making it hard to breathe. aufguss events led by sauna masters are also held regularly, letting you take in dynamic waves of heat and sink into a deep state of relaxation for both body and mind.

A dry sauna in the women’s bathing area inspired by Finland, the sauna pioneer. Beautiful pale wood and a space filled with the scent of wood let you sweat comfortably. It is equipped with auto löyly, and the heat and moderate humidity warm the entire body thoroughly, delivering an exceptional refreshment experience.

A women-only mist sauna filled with plenty of moisturizing steam. By gently applying salt to the skin and letting it blend in, it may help remove impurities from the pores and leave the skin smooth and firm. It is a blissful beauty space where even people who are not fond of very hot saunas can relax at their own pace.

A clear cold plunge bath that sharply cools and tightens your body after a thorough sauna session. It is deep enough to submerge yourself to the shoulders, quickly drawing out heat and providing a refreshing cooldown. After washing off the sweat in one go with the bucket shower from above, you move smoothly into the cold plunge bath and then on to outdoor cooling in the open air, creating a seamless flow that promises an exceptional totonou experience.
