A Hot Soak for Women
The closest women get to a Japanese bath in Los Angeles is at the Beverly Hot Springs in Koreatown.
Women can’t do the whole Japanese bath routine, but they can at least get a hot soak in water that comes from an underground, natural mineral spring.
Like most baths in Japan, the sexes here are separated; men and women soak on different floors.
Beverly Hot Springs is at 308 N. Oxford Ave., Los Angeles. Hours: 9 a.m.--9 p.m. daily. Spa only: $25 on weekdays 9 a.m. to noon; $30 all other times. Information: (213) 734-7000.
