No matter how many times they returned the statue to the water, it kept coming back to them.

My first time ever trying a Japanese head spa experience was amazing. I had a free afternoon and the studio was super easy to book and find in the hotel. Keiko-san and the rest of the team at 1895 Maison were so welcoming and kind. Our language barrier wasn’t an issue at all (some staff speak English) and the team is extremely texture friendly (for reference I have type 4C dreadlocks). The spa experience was so relaxing. I was washed, massage, and pampered to the fullest. It was extremely relaxing especially after a long flight and they even offered a gift at the end. I would definitely book this experience again!!! 恵子さん、そしてチームの皆さん、本当にありがとうございました！！！

You can get there by taking the train to Hawajima Station and then walking or taking a bus. For the return trip, there's a free bus ticket available. There are many hot spring baths, including steam rooms and saunas. Towels and robes are provided. There's also a lounge area with a great, very relaxing atmosphere. It's located on the 2nd floor of the Big Fun mall.

I had a really nice experience getting my feet and head massaged. was just what I needed at the end of my trip and she applied a good amount of pressure to my muscles. it was confusing to find since there’s another business on the 2nd floor that seems similar. this place is on the 7th floor.

Excellent service, staff was kind and respectful. We got the couples head massage after landing from our flight and it really helped with the jet lag and grogginess. So good and relaxing, my wife even fell asleep!

I had a wonderful and relaxing experience at Kunistyle Enzyme Spa in Ginza!
Excellent Service: The staff here are incredibly kind and attentive. A huge plus was being served refreshing drinks right while relaxing in the enzyme bath itself.
Tasty Pre-Spa Drinks: They also provide a delicious enzyme drink before your session starts, which was a great way to begin.
Atmosphere & Facilities: The overall environment is peaceful and deeply relaxing. Additionally, the shower area is exceptionally clean, tidy, and well-maintained.
Highly recommended if you are looking for a high-quality, soothing enzyme bath experience in Tokyo!

An amazing and relaxing experience! The massage included work on the neck which was perfect for recovering from a long flight. There is a makeup room where you can fix your hair or makeup following the massage and continue your day.
Tokyo at a glance
Quick facts about Tokyo
General info
What to know before visiting Tokyo
Quick snapshot of Tokyo’s experiences and timing
Tokyo’s busiest Klook categories are observation decks, museums and theme parks, giving the city a mix of skyline views, cultural visits and big-day attractions. Demand on Klook rises and falls through the year, with clear high and low periods that shape how crowded those experiences feel.
Best months to visit for price and crowds
Klook booking data shows demand peaks in February and falls to a trough in August. Prices, however, move differently: Klook’s data indicates the priciest month tends to be August while the cheapest month typically falls in June. That means crowds are lowest in August but prices are at their highest, whereas June often offers lower prices with more moderate demand. If you prefer smaller crowds and peak-season atmosphere, aim for February; if lower prices and quieter booking windows matter more, consider travelling in June.
Tips for travellers from Australia
Australian travellers typically book about two weeks ahead, so plan arrivals and big activities with that lead time in mind—especially during February when demand peaks. Many experiences in Tokyo can still be arranged a few days out, but locking in key observation deck tickets, museum entries or theme-park options around 15 days ahead gives you more certainty. Use Klook to secure those bookings in advance while keeping some flexibility for last-minute additions.
