When searching for soaplands in Kawasaki (**Horinouchi/Minamimachi**), the overwhelming amount of information can easily lead to confusion. Here, we've created a guide to "how to make your selection easier" based on the text published in **Fuzoku Japan (Kanagawa > Kawasaki > Soaplands)**. *This page does not determine the superiority or inferiority of a store, but rather organizes it from the perspective of "making your selection less confusing" based on the published text, number of reviews, price information, etc. ---
## ✅ First, keep in mind: Key indicators to look for in Kawasaki Soaplands (Horinouchi/Minamimachi) From the published information, the following four are easy to use as comparison criteria. 1) **Number of reviews and ratings**: The more reviews there are, the more likely you are to gather testimonials (however, ratings are subjective, so don't rely on them too much). 2) **Price guide (total price/bathing fee + service charge)**: Since the format varies by establishment, review it under the same conditions. 3) **Business hours/last appointment**: Morning hours (e.g., from 6:00 AM) or late nights make it easier to fit into your schedule. 4) **Concept (married women/school/aromatherapy, etc.)**: The "description" often mentions that matching preferences increases satisfaction. ⚠️ Fuzoku Japan states, "**Only establishments that have submitted a pledge regarding illegal activities** are listed," and provides an explanation of the listing criteria. ---
## 🔥 Choose by number of reviews (emphasis on depth of information). If you prioritize the quantity of testimonials, you can first narrow down your search to establishments with a large number of reviews. - **Natural Princess**: 4.7 rating, **1,081 reviews** (described as "a hideaway for adults" and "for those tired of ordinary entertainment") - **Young Plaza**: 4.7 rating, **238 reviews** (described as "a lover-type soapland" and "pure and innocent amateurs") - **Akatonbo**: 4.7 rating, **146 reviews** (described as "specializing in married mature women" and "actual ages listed and almost no photo editing"). ✅ Key point: Having more reviews doesn't necessarily mean it's a good fit for you, but it does give you more information to compare beforehand. ---
## ✅ Tips for Avoiding Confusion When Looking at Price Listings (Total Price/Bath Fee Difference) The listed establishments have two types of prices listed. - **"X minutes, total price starting from X yen" type** (e.g., Young Plaza 30 minutes, total price starting from 10,300 yen, Akatonbo 40 minutes, total price starting from 15,400 yen, etc.) - **"Bath fee X yen + service charge" type** (e.g., CELEB 90 minutes, bath fee starting from 20,000 yen + service charge, PROPORTION 110 minutes, bath fee starting from 30,000 yen + service charge) ⚠️ When comparing, - Use the same length of time - Distinguish between "total price" and "bath fee + service charge" Keeping these two points in mind will help you avoid being swayed by apparent low/high prices. ---
## ✅ Choose by concept: For people with clear preferences The concept direction will vary depending on what can be inferred from the description. ### 1) For those interested in married women and mature women - **Kawasaki Married Women Soapland Mint**: Rating 4.4, 22 reviews. The listing emphasizes the wide range of services, from "cute young wives in their 20s to those in their late twenties and early thirties." - **Akatonbo**: Rating 4.7, 146 reviews. The listing mentions "specializing in married women and mature women," "actual ages are listed," and "photos are almost never retouched." ✅ Since the descriptions of the age ranges and atmospheres of married women and mature women vary from establishment to establishment, reading the profiles carefully seems important (based on the listings). ### 2) For those who like school uniforms, uniforms, and cosplay - **Eden (Kyoto Group)**: Rating 4.5, 81 reviews. The listing mentions "uniform cosplay" and "not just high school girl uniforms, but also professional and anime-themed." - **Kawasaki Uniform Idol Soapland KiSeKi**: Rating 4.8, 12 reviews. The listing clearly states, "Only those under 25 years old are hired." - **Cosplay Empress Orihime**: Rating 4.4, 79 reviews. The listing includes expressions like "many inexperienced girls" and "apparently offers free transportation." ⚠️ Because the same terms may be used for cosplay/uniform services, the listing suggests checking the photo diary for updates. ---
## ✅ If you prioritize "relaxation" and "skill" (aromatherapy/high-end): - **CELEB~Celebrity~**: Rating 4.8, 59 reviews. The listing emphasizes the technical aspects, such as "combining soapland and aroma treatment" and "dedicated instructors." - **PROPORTION**: Rating 4.9, 67 reviews. The listing mentions "naturally large breasts (E cup or larger)" and "hospitality." 🔥 These establishments are labeled "luxury," and the price column includes "bathing fee + service fee." They are described as being for people seeking **"relaxation/specialness"** (this is not definitive). ---
## ✅ Choose by access and opening hours (avoiding realistic mistakes) The listing information clearly states the walking distance from Kawasaki Station and opening hours. - **Natural Princess**: 5-minute walk from JR Kawasaki Station, 8:00 AM to midnight (last appointment 11:15 PM) - **Eden**: 5-minute walk from JR Kawasaki Station, 6:00 AM to midnight - **Kagayome**: 10-minute walk from JR Kawasaki Station or Keikyu Kawasaki Station, 6:00 AM to midnight (last appointment 10:50 PM) ✅ Some establishments are open from 6:00 AM, so narrowing down your search by hours, walking time, and price based on your schedule is helpful. ---
## ✅ Check whether reservations and payments are possible or not first. Many of the listed establishments will state that they accept credit cards. Also, some establishments have clear reservation paths, such as **Natural Princess**, which displays **Online Reservations**. ⚠️ The schedule and conditions on the day may change, so it is best to check the latest information on the store page (the page will also indicate the update date). ---
## ✅ A checklist for choosing a shop that is less likely to fail (to the extent possible with the posted information) - ✅ **Number of reviews**: If you want to compare, start with the shops with the most reviews - ✅ **Price display format**: Don't confuse the total price / bathing fee + service charge format - ✅ **Concept**: Choose based on the introduction, such as married women, school, aroma, etc. - ✅ **Opening hours**: Morning type (from 6:00) or open until night (until midnight/midnight) - ✅ **Access**: Prioritize realistic travel options, such as a 5-minute/10-minute/15-minute walk ---
