Roppongi’s Sauna Mother to open in late October as one-room private sauna

A one-room private sauna called Sauna Mother is scheduled to open in late October in the basement of Keepers Roppongi. The source gives few practical details beyond the location and creator.

For people in or visiting Tokyo, the useful detail is the location: the basement of Keepers Roppongi. The source describes Sauna Mother as a one-room private sauna and says it was created by longtime sauna obsessive Yuka. It also frames the experience as crawling back into the womb, which signals a private, immersive sauna rather than a large public bath.
