User reviews and feedback

Since its opening, Osaka Sauna DESSE has received a lot of praise from many sauna enthusiasts. There have been 4,201 reviews posted on the sauna review site, which shows the popularity and high profile of the facility. In particular, the high praise is due to eight unique saunas. The "River Sauna" is famous for the unique experience of jumping directly into the river from inside the sauna. The "Forest Sauna" is highly rated for its quiet enjoyment in a dimly lit, relaxing atmosphere, with many users praising it as "wonderful." The facilities' cleanliness and the equipment's quality are also highly rated. The high amenities and the fact that you can visit without bringing anything are also popular with users. In addition, the provision of free Wi-Fi that can be used in the building is also highly regarded as a facility that meets modern needs. In terms of location, the excellent access of just a 3-minute walk from Shinsaibashi Station is highly rated by many users. The fact that you can experience a genuine sauna experience in the city center is cited as an attraction.
On the other hand, because the facility is so popular, some comments have commented that it is sometimes impossible to get into some of the saunas during busy periods. This could reflect the facility's popularity, but it is also recognized as an area that could be improved. Overall, Osaka Sauna Dessé is highly regarded as an attractive facility for sauna enthusiasts. It has been described as a "theme park that puts Universal Studios to shame." The combination of a diverse range of sauna experiences, excellent facilities, and a convenient location has helped to establish it as a new sauna hotspot in Osaka.

Tattoo-friendly days

Osaka Sauna DESSE has designated "Tattoo Day" for those with tattoos. Specifically, every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday are designated as Tattoo Day. This allows those with tattoos, who would usually be restricted from bathing, to use the facilities on certain days of the week. However, there may be exceptions to the tattoo day policy, so we recommend that those considering using the facility check the official website or official social media for the latest information in advance. In addition, Osaka Sauna DESSE has received many inquiries about the implementation of Tattoo Day and has indicated that it will provide detailed information in due course. This is part of the facility's efforts to meet the needs of a diverse range of users. The implementation of Tattoo Day demonstrates the comprehensive approach of Osaka Sauna Dessé. It reflects the facility's policy to provide a sauna experience to as many people as possible. Thanks to this initiative, people with tattoos can use the facility with peace of mind and enjoy the eight unique saunas just like other users.

Welcoming foreign customers

Osaka Sauna Dessé welcomes foreign customers and has become a popular spot for many visitors. Foreign customers can often be seen in the facility, creating an international atmosphere. With the increase in foreign customers, conversations in various languages can be heard in the facility, creating a lively environment. This shows that the excellent location in the center of Osaka and the facilities' well-equipped facilities are highly rated by foreign tourists. However, with the increase in conversation, consideration is also being given to users who want to enjoy the sauna in peace. For example, a "silent bathing space" has been set up to meet users' needs who wish to enjoy the sauna experience in peace. The facility does not publish specific information about special services for foreign users or multilingual support. Still, it is thought that it has a system to accommodate international users as an urban sauna facility. The increase in foreign users shows that Osaka Sauna Dessé is not just a local facility but is establishing itself as an international tourist spot. This proves the facility's appeal is being evaluated beyond language and cultural barriers.
