Experience Tokyo’s Best: Spa LaQua Admission & 24-Hour Subway Ticket

Imagine a day where you can unwind in soothing thermal baths and then hop effortlessly across Tokyo’s bustling neighborhoods — all with one easy, cost-effective ticket. For just $25, this combo experience offers admission to Spa LaQua, a luxurious spa in Tokyo Dome City, plus unlimited rides on all Toei Subway and Tokyo Metro lines for 24 hours. It’s an excellent way to combine relaxation with city exploration.

What we love most about this tour is how seamlessly it connects two very different but equally essential Tokyo experiences. First, the spa facilities — hot springs, saunas, and lounges — are designed to melt away stress, and the 24-hour subway pass gives you the freedom to explore Tokyo at your own pace without worrying about transportation costs. Plus, with digital tickets and QR codes, the process is smooth and stress-free.

One thing to keep in mind: children under 6 are not allowed into the spa, and tattoos are a no-go — common in many traditional Japanese baths. So, this experience might suit adult travelers or older teens. If you’re after authentic relaxation and urban adventure rolled into one, this tour could be your perfect day in Tokyo.

A Deep Dive into the Experience

Visiting Spa LaQua: A Respite in Tokyo Dome City

Located on the 5th to 9th floors of LaQua, Spa LaQua is a hidden gem amid Tokyo Dome City’s vibrant entertainment district. For $25, you receive a standard admission ticket that grants access to a variety of hot spring baths, saunas, relaxation lounges, and even a few unique features like mineral-rich waters. We loved the way the spa’s atmosphere balances luxury and authenticity — it’s clean, quiet, and designed for stress relief.

The facilities open at 11:00 and stay open until 9:00 the following morning, making it suitable for both a midday escape or a late-night soak. When we visited, the staff efficiently checked our digital tickets — a simple process with QR codes that saved time and avoided queues.

The Spa’s Rules and Restrictions

Be aware that for safety and health reasons, children aged 0 to 5 aren’t permitted inside. Visitors aged 6 to 17 can enjoy the spa until 6 p.m. (last admission at 3 p.m.) only if they are accompanied by a guardian of the same sex — a typical rule for many Japanese baths. The policy against tattoos and body art is strictly enforced, reflecting traditional customs, so travelers with tattoos should plan accordingly.

People with skin diseases, infectious conditions, or who are intoxicated are not allowed inside, maintaining a hygienic environment. Some travelers mentioned that these rules can be a bit restrictive but are standard in Japan’s onsen culture.
