Spa LaQua Tokyo: Tattoo Rules, How Entry Works, and Night Fees (2026)

With a tattoo, you cannot enter Spa LaQua, and the official rules list no exception for foreign visitors. Tattoo stickers and body paint count too. Without one, an adult pays ¥2,500 to ¥4,700, set by the date and your arrival time. Stay in the spa between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. and ¥2,500 is added.

✓ Checked October 23, 2026 against the official Spa LaQua pages · 💴 In yen, tax included; exchange rates vary

Spa LaQua sits on the upper floors of LaQua, next to Tokyo Dome. I went on October 23, 2026, and checked each rule and price below against the official pages that day.

Tattoos, body paint and tattoo stickers: all three mean no entry

The official usage guide says, in my translation: “Guests with tattoos or body art (tattoos, paint, stickers and the like) … are refused entry.” Source: official usage guide (in Japanese), checked October 23, 2026.

The official pages give no exception for overseas visitors, for size, or for covering a tattoo up.

Inside, you pay with the wristband and walk barefoot or in socks. Source: official site, October 23, 2026.

What the entry fee covers, and what it does not

The entry fee includes a towel set, loungewear rental and use of the amenities. Healing Baden, the rock-bath (ganbanyoku) area on the 8th and 9th floors, is for 18 and over and needs its own wear, rented for ¥1,100 on top (in yen, tax included, as of October 23, 2026; exchange rates change what this is in your currency).

Spa LaQua Prices and Night Fees (2026)

3
Spa LaQua Prices and Night Fees (2026)
Four price bands, a night rate and a late-night surcharge

The price depends on the date’s band (A to D on the official calendar) and on whether you arrive from 7 p.m., when the night rate applies. October 23, 2026 is an A day.

Spa LaQua adult prices (18 and over)
Regular entryA day¥3,500B day¥3,800C day¥4,400D day¥4,700Night entry (from 7 p.m.)A day¥2,500B day¥2,800C day¥3,400D day¥3,700
In yen, tax included (official price page, checked October 23, 2026). The night rate cannot be combined with other discounts. What you pay in your own currency changes with the exchange rate.

Two charges sit outside the table. Stay in the spa at any time between 1 a.m. and 6 a.m. and a late-night surcharge of ¥2,500 is added. Healing Baden wear rental is ¥1,100 (both in yen, tax included, 2026).

Example: arriving at night and staying until morning

My calculation; the official page lists the two fees separately. On an A day you check in at or after 7 p.m. and stay past 1 a.m.: ¥2,500 + ¥2,500 = ¥5,000. Leave before 1 a.m. and you pay the night rate only.

Save ¥600 with the Tokyo Dome City app

Show the Tokyo Dome City app at check-in and the adult entry fee on an A day falls from ¥3,500 to ¥2,900. Add Healing Baden (¥1,100) and the total is ¥4,000. The official price page lists this as the app and Mitsui Shopping Park Point presentation discount (in yen, tax included, as of October 23, 2026; exchange rates change what this is in your currency). The coupon cannot be combined with the night rate, other entry discount tickets or entry service tickets, so it applies to the regular rate. The ¥2,500 late-night surcharge (1 a.m. to 6 a.m.) and the Healing Baden fee are charged on top.

The app works on iPhone and Android. It needs a TOKYO DOME CITY ID, and it also carries coupons for other facilities in Tokyo Dome City, an illustrated map and event news. The app is in Japanese only. Details are on the official app page (in Japanese).

Using the coupon in the app
1Tap the Coupon tab (クーポン) at the bottom2Choose the Spa LaQua filter (スパ ラクーア)3Tap the coupon named スパ ラクーア入館料 割引, which says ¥600 off the entry fee4At check-in, scan the QR code at the front desk with the app, and the discount is applied
Conditions shown in the coupon (my translation): for the holder only; show it at the 6th-floor front desk when you check in, because it cannot be used after you have paid; not valid for ages 6 to 17. The QR code has to be scanned once for each person in your group. The coupon showed an expiry of October 31, 2026 when I checked on October 23, 2026.

Hours (2026)

The spa is open from 11 a.m. until 9 a.m. the next morning; baths close at 8:30 a.m. (outdoor bath 7:30 a.m.), last entry 8 a.m. Bands change daily and some days are closed, so check the official price calendar (in Japanese).

Where photos are allowed, point the camera only at the people you came with.

Every route ends at the same elevator on LaQua’s 2nd floor

Spa LaQua: Frequently Asked Questions

Spa LaQua: Frequently Asked Questions
Tattoo stickers, cover-ups, booking, wristbands and valuables

Can I enter Spa LaQua with a tattoo sticker?
No. The rule refuses entry for “tattoos or body art (tattoos, paint, stickers and the like)” (my translation; official usage guide (in Japanese), checked October 23, 2026), so stickers and body paint are covered too.
Can I cover my tattoo with a bandage and go in?
Not under the official rules. They refuse entry to guests with tattoos and list no cover-up option, and no exception for size or nationality.
Do I need to book Spa LaQua in advance?
No. The official usage guide says no advance reservation is needed.
What happens if I lose my wristband?
You pay the actual cost. The same goes for the shoe locker key, the loungewear and towels.
Where do I keep my passport and other valuables?
In the small lockable boxes in the locker room (the spa’s site calls them “free boxes”). Check that yours is locked, and keep watches and necklaces out of the baths.
Planning Your Spa LaQua Visit? What to Do Next

Step 1 — Check your group: anyone with a tattoo, body paint or a tattoo sticker will be turned away.

Step 2 — Look up your date: the official price calendar shows the band or a closed day.

Step 3 — Plan the rest of your day: use the Things to Do in Tokyo guide.
