As recently reported on SciFi Japan, the Hakone Kowakien Yunessun hot spring amusement park ( Address: 1297 Ninotaira, Hakone-machi, Ashigarashimo-gun, Kanagawa Prefecture 250-0407; Manager: Motonobu Matsuyama) will host an extended promotional event with the new movie GODZILLA MINUS ONE (ゴジラ-1.0/ゴジラマイナスワン, Gojira Mainasu Wan) from Friday, October 20, 2023 until Monday, January 8, 2024. During that time, Yunessun will be transformed into a ``Godzilla-class Yunessun" (ゴジラ級なユネッサン, Gojira Kyūna Yunessan) where guests can enjoy not only the hot springs but an the entire facility filled with Godzilla decorations and displays, a new Godzilla-inspired bath, original Godzilla drinks, and exclusive merchandise.
Yunessun has now provided an update with the latest news on their GODZILLA MINUS ONE promotion.
A 2.6-meter (8.5 foot) tall statue of "Godzilla-1.0" -- recently displayed in the Tokyo Dome for the Yomiuri Giants /GODZILLA MINUS ONE Collaboration -- will welcome guests at the front desk on the 4th floor of Yunessun. The spa's press release describes the statue as "so realistic and large that you will involuntarily back away."
Three types of original Godzilla-themed drinks will be available: two flavors of "Rugged Godzilla-Style Floats" and the "Godzilla-Class Cola," which is twice the size of a regular soda .
Exclusive Godzilla merchandise will include a "Godzilla Bath," a new home-use bath salt that allows you to enjoy a black water Godzilla-inspired bath in your own tub.

Business Hours: Weekdays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays 10:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. (last entry 30 minutes before closing time)
