Does KEISEI RICHMOND HOTEL in KINSHICHO have a pool and sauna?

Keisei Richmond Hotel had its grand opening in Kinshicho in December 2021, and the Sumida Ward General Gymnasium is within walking distance. Even if you don't live in the ward, you can use facilities such as the indoor pool and gym for 550 yen/2 hours (130 yen/30 minutes for any additional hours). Kinshicho is also a hotbed of saunas, so I created a plan to stay in Kinshicho and enjoy the pool and sauna.

1. Access from JR Kinshicho Station
- If you are heading to the hotel from JR Kinshicho Station, head to the South Exit.

- After exiting the ticket gate, head left towards the plaza and onto the footbridge with an escalator that crosses the main street intersection. The escalators seem to be out of service in the early morning and late at night, so in those cases, we recommend heading right towards the front and using the crosswalk.

- Cross the crosswalk on the left side of the square and take the escalators on the right to the footbridge. You will see Exit 1 of Kinshicho Station on the Tokyo Metro Hanzomon Line (with an escalator leading up to ground level) in front of you.

- Once you've crossed the footbridge, turn right. (To get to the Hanzomon Metro Line, take the elevator on the left side of the footbridge.)

- Go straight along the dashed line, but there are stairs to the left, and an escalator to the right, which is a bit of a detour.

- Go straight.

- After crossing the crosswalk, Keisei Richmond Hotel is on the corner after the second traffic light.

- arrival

- About a 5-minute walk from the station

2. Keisei Richmond Hotel Tokyo Kinshicho
- As you enter the entrance, you'll be greeted by the lobby, complete with a sofa that makes you want to sit down and take a breather. The front desk is on the right, and you check in by filling out your name, address, and contact information. You can then pick up any amenities you need from next to the elevator on the first floor.

- The room entrance, guest rooms are on the 2nd to 12th floors, and this time I booked the "Moderate Single Room Basic Plan" on Ikyu's time sale for 8,400 yen + 13% points (1,092 yen), effectively 7,308 yen. Not only was this satisfying, but I also left a comment saying I wanted a "room with a view" on a whim, and luckily I was given a room on the 11th floor, which made me very happy...

- On the floor map, the bottom is west (Tokyo side) and the top is east (Chiba side). There is a breakfast area, vending machines, and a microwave on the second floor.

- Although the windows are small, the clean and simple 17m2 room feels spacious.

- Desk area

- TV, Sharp, about 42 inches

- On the desk there was a charging cable, as well as a courier delivery slip, a dry cleaning bag, a mirror, etc.

- Cups and glasses, drip coffee and green tea can be picked up from the amenity corner on the first floor.

- water heater

- The Astage 20L refrigerator was on, but it didn't seem to be very cold. It's a quiet Peltier type.

- It was used as a table and a place to put luggage...

- The air purifier was plugged in

- The separate loungewear was made of a comfortable waffle fabric and felt like a gown...

- Bedside small item holder

- Crawl set next to the entrance

- The slippers are not disposable. They are more comfortable than disposable slippers, which are thin and difficult to walk in.

- bathroom,

- The bathtub was also large, and the shower curtain didn't feel too oppressive, so it felt like it was okay to soak in the bathtub.

- shower

- shampoo

- dryer

- Other amenities included makeup remover, lotion, milky lotion, and cotton pads.

- West view from the 11th floor

- schedule

- Lockers are keyed with wristbands and no coins required
- Swimming caps are required (you won't be able to enter without one, so be careful)
- The water was cleaner than at the sports club (I feel that most municipal pools are relatively clean).
- It was available on Tuesdays from before 7pm to around 8pm, with around 3-6 people per course (there was no school at 7pm, so all courses were for individual use), and the walking course was the busiest with around 10 people.
- Jacuzzi available
- In addition to showers, there are hot bath facilities (shampoos cannot be used)
-
Koganeyu
...A popular public bath near Kinshicho Station. Purchase tickets from the ticket machine next to the entrance.
From the website- Unfortunately, when I stopped by after 8pm on my way back from the pool, there was a limit on the number of people allowed, so I had to wait 90 minutes, and I gave up on using it this time.
