Can the massage therapist go directly to my room without meeting downstairs?
Very unlikely. BELLUSTAR uses keycard-controlled elevators, and the hotel lobby is not on the ground floor. Your therapist cannot reach your floor without your keycard. Plan for a
meet-up at the 1F entrance or the hotel lobby level.
Why is the hotel lobby not on the ground floor?
BELLUSTAR TOKYO occupies the upper floors (39–47) of the 48-storey Tokyu Kabukicho Tower. The building entrance is on the 1st floor, but the hotel reception, restaurants, and spa are
on the higher floors. A dedicated elevator takes you from 1F to the hotel lobby area. This is a common layout for luxury hotels inside mixed-use towers.
Is BELLUSTAR TOKYO the same building as HOTEL GROOVE SHINJUKU?
Yes — both are inside Tokyu Kabukicho Tower. HOTEL GROOVE occupies floors 18–38 (a lifestyle-oriented hotel with 538 rooms), and BELLUSTAR occupies floors 39–47 (a luxury hotel with
97 rooms). They share the same address but have separate lobbies, separate elevator banks, and different service levels. Make sure your therapist goes to the BELLUSTAR entrance, not
the GROOVE entrance.
Can I book a late-night massage here? (after midnight)
Yes. Many outcall services in Tokyo accept bookings until 3:00–5:00 AM. A late-night surcharge typically applies (¥1,000–¥2,000). The building entrance is accessible around the clock,
so the meet-up process works regardless of the hour.
The hotel has its own spa (SPA sunya). Why book an external outcall?
SPA sunya on the 47th floor is a premium experience with panoramic views. But it operates on fixed hours (typically until 21:00) and its own treatment menu. If you want a private
massage in your own room at a specific time (especially late night), with your choice of therapist, style (shiatsu, oil, deep tissue), and duration, an external outcall service gives
you that flexibility.
Shiatsu or oil massage — which works better in these rooms?
Both work well. Rooms start at 41 m² with generous floor space. Shiatsu on the bed requires zero setup. Oil massage using a floor mat is also comfortable given the room dimensions.
The Japanese-style interiors and spacious bathrooms make post-massage cleanup easy.
Can I get a couples massage (two therapists at the same time)?
Yes. Standard rooms at 41 m² can handle two therapists working simultaneously, and suites and penthouses offer even more space. Mention “couples massage” or “two therapists” when
booking so the service can coordinate dispatch.
How much does an outcall massage cost in Tokyo?
A 60-minute session typically costs ¥15,000–¥25,000; a 90-minute session ¥20,000–¥35,000. Late-night surcharges (¥1,000–¥2,000) may apply. Prices vary by service, massage type, and
time. Always confirm the total before the therapist is dispatched.
How far in advance should I book?
Same-day booking is standard. Most services can dispatch within 60–90 minutes. Shinjuku is a central hub, so therapist travel times are typically short. For peak nights
(Friday/Saturday evenings), booking a few hours ahead gives you better options.
Can I book a massage right after checking in? (jet lag recovery)
Yes. Message an outcall service while still at the airport or in the taxi. By the time you have settled into your room, a therapist can be dispatched and arrive within 60–90 minutes.
A post-flight in-room massage is one of the fastest ways to reset after a long-haul flight.
What types of massage can I get delivered to my room?
Most outcall services offer shiatsu (Japanese acupressure, done through clothing on the bed), oil massage (Swedish-style, using towels or a mat), and deep tissue massage (stronger
pressure). Some also offer Thai massage, sports massage, or lymphatic drainage. Describe what you are looking for (relaxation, pain relief, leg fatigue from walking) and the service
will recommend the best fit.
Do I need to tell the hotel it is a massage?
No. You are meeting a guest and escorting them to your room. That is normal behaviour for a registered hotel guest. Keep it simple and polite.
