Uenodacho, Kawagoe, Saitama Prefecture

Chiisana Tabi Kawagoe Onsen

A good two-to-three-hour stop after sightseeing if you want natural spring water, including a raw-spring pool, without committing to a large stone-spa package. For early-morning or late-night hours, compare the other Kawagoe baths.

Check before bathing

Opening hours
The 2026 dated information gives 10:00–24:00 on weekdays and 09:00–24:00 on weekends and holidays. The footer still shows older hours ending at 25:00, so confirm before a late visit. Adult admission is ¥850 on weekdays and ¥950 on weekends and holidays. Children under 3 are not admitted.
Tattoo policy
Tattoos are not permitted. No official cover-seal exception is confirmed.

Spring & water temperature

Spring-source temperature
Not confirmed as a current value. An older 34.6°C figure is not treated as current official data.
Bathing temperature
No stable current pool temperature is published.
Spring source
Kawagoe Natural Onsen Bijin-no-Yu; current sources confirm a raw-spring pool and several pools using natural spring water.
Spring classification
Natural sodium chloride spring; current sources do not provide enough information to safely reproduce a more detailed 2026 analysis.
pH
Not confirmed as a current figure; an older third-party pH of 7.7 is not reused.
Flow rate
No current facility-specific figure is published.
Water handling
The local tourism association confirms a raw-spring pool and several pools using spring water. The current first-party pages do not publish complete water addition, heating, circulation or disinfection details for each pool, so the whole facility is not described as purely source-flowing.
Analysis date
2026

Bathing indications

The facility and tourism information use general warming and 'beauty spring' descriptions. These are not disease-treatment or cosmetic guarantees.

Hours conflict with an older 25:00 footer listing. Confirm the current closing time, especially for a late visit. Tattoos are prohibited.

How to read a bath profile

Spring-source temperature and actual bathing temperature are kept separate. Each score is shown independently for comparison rather than collapsed into one overall score.
