Onsen, which roughly translates to “hot springs” are an important aspect of Japanese culture and have been used for therapeutic and calming purposes for generations. What makes an Onsen so specially relaxing are the specific minerals added to the waters which must have a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius or more, though the usual temperature is 38 degrees Celsius.
As much as we wish you could experience the original Onsen in Japan itself, sometimes things get a bit more complicated when factors like money and travel come into play. But that doesn’t mean you can’t experience this stress free treat! That’s why we’re bringing you the top 5 Onsen spas you can try out right here in Klang Valley, Malaysia.
It’s time to plan your next self care session, because you deserve it!
1.Hanami Wellness Centre

Hanami Wellness Centre is located at Puchong and has a very Zen interior, with terrazzo flooring and wood furnishings.
Here, you can experience their stone bathtub, where natural mineral-rich salts have been extracted from Japan’s famed volcanic highlands. They offer 4 kinds of special Onsen slats which are Kirei (for beauty and skin nourishment), Anshin (for relaxation and tranquillity), Iyashi (for healing from the inside out), and Genki (for energy increase).
The baths here are set to a comforting temperature of 38 to 40 degrees Celcius which helps to increase blood circulation, relieves tense muscles and helps to reduce stress. It’ll definitely be hard for anyone to stress out when surrounded by such an aesthetically calming environment like this.

This next Onsen spa is located in Cheras and prides itself for being a family loved establishment. Onsen Cheras specializes in authentic Japanese Onsen baths as well as amazingly tailored massages for each customer.
Their private Onsen rooms are uniquely designed, offering a spacious wooden bathtub that can fit two adults as well as a digital “window” offering views of tranquil Japanese landscape.
If you’re looking for a reasonable splurge, this spa has packages (for individuals or couples) that’s so worth it! They include hot teas, a foot soak, massages and either sea salt milk, black tea or lemongrass ginger baths. That sounds pretty darn relaxing.

Urban Retreat is Malaysia’s first most authentic Japanese bath spa, recreated using mineral-rich crystalline powders collected directly from Japan’s renowned Onsen springs. The individual wooden tubs are also imported from Japan!
This spa is popular amongst spa enthusiasts and is rapidly expanding with 6 outlets already open. While you may book a good massage or spa treatment here, the star of Urban Retreat is undoubtedly their Onsen. The tubs are available in private rooms (so don’t worry, you won’t have to strip naked in front of strangers!)
