Enjoy dinner around a charcoal fire in the hearth, bringing back memories. Freshly grilled seafood from the mountains and rivers, creative kaiseki cuisine, and local sake will surely liven up your feast.
A historic hot spring discovered over 820 years ago
The open-air baths, which are fed directly from the hot spring source and are available for private use along the clear stream, will release you into a sense of unity with nature. The hot spring that originated in Yunishigawa and was discovered over 820 years ago is a weakly alkaline simple hot spring, and is a famous hot spring known for its skin-beautifying properties and its ability to bring about fertility.
All guest rooms are located along the clear stream, and all rooms with open-air and half-baths have natural hot spring water. Two Japanese-Western rooms with half-open-air baths were opened in January this year. You can transcend time and space and immerse yourself in an extraordinary experience, transported to your spiritual home.
