About this ryokan

♨️A Century of Kakenagashi at a Time-Honored Inn

Nagano · Andaikan

The Charm of a Time-Honored Inn

🏯Founded in 1902 (Meiji 35), a three-story wooden hot spring ryokan with over a century of history
🌉A vermilion-lacquered railed bridge and a wooden umbrella ceiling preserve the elegance of old times
🪨Set as the first house on Andai Onsen's street, between Shibu Onsen and Yudanaka Onsen

Two Kakenagashi Indoor Baths

♨️Enjoy two indoor baths with distinct character: Kodai-buro and Ryugu-buro
🔄The men's and women's baths swap between evening and morning, so you can try both
🛁On weekdays, the bath can also be reserved for private use

A Slightly Alkaline Simple Spring, Known as the 'Beauty Bath'

💧A clear, colorless, slightly alkaline simple saline spring, known as the 'beauty bath'
🌿Said to help with neuralgia, rheumatism, and skin care, among other benefits
🤲Rub a wet arm and you'll feel just how silky-smooth the water is

A Guest-Only Privilege: The Andai Outer Baths

Homemade Flavors Through Shinshu's Seasons

🌱In spring, a reservation-only mountain-vegetable plan features over 20 kinds of wild greens
🍲Breakfast opens with light yudofu, a careful Japanese-Western spread

A Building That Lets You Feel Time Pass

🛏️Eight tatami rooms in total, ranging from the 22-mat Tsuru-no-ma to the 8-mat Yuri-no-ma
🪟Rooms with an engawa veranda look down over the hot spring street
🔥From December to March, every room gets a kotatsu to keep you warm

🍦Try the young owner's handmade gelato, served 15:00–21:00 (500 yen each)

Old-Time Fun and Sights Along the Onsen Street

🐒The snow monkeys of nearby Jigokudani Wild Monkey Park are a famous draw
🚌About 5 minutes by bus from Yudanaka Station — comfortable for families, couples, and solo travelers alike
