About this ryokan

♨️A small Showa-retro inn with drinkable radon hot springs near Onomichi

Hiroshima · Yoro Onsen Honkan

Opened in 1960, a Showa-era hot spring inn
1

Opened in 1960, a Showa-era hot spring inn

  • 🏮The spring opened in 1960: drilling for sake-brewing water struck abundant radon-bearing water, and it became a hot spring.
  • 🏠The two-story wooden building is a simple structure with a nostalgic Showa feel.
  • ⛰️A small hot spring inn tucked into the hills a little way from central Onomichi.
Radon water you can even drink

Radon water you can even drink

  • ♨️A weakly radioactive simple cold mineral spring (radon) is heated for bathing and is known for warming you through.
  • 💧Metasilicic acid, said to moisturize skin, exceeds the standard level, making the water soft; it is also drinkable, and the inn runs entirely on spring water.
  • 🛁One bath each for men and women, with a slightly deep central tub and mosaic-tile walls showing European scenery.
Rooms from 6 to 15 tatami mats

Rooms from 6 to 15 tatami mats

  • 🛏️Rooms range from 6 to 15 tatami mats, including Japanese rooms with toilets and Western twin rooms.
  • 🚻Some rooms have no toilet; rooms with shared toilets can only be booked by phone.
  • 🧺Face towel, bath towel, toothbrush and yukata are provided.
Flavors of sea and mountains

Flavors of sea and mountains

  • 🐟Meals feature Setouchi seafood as well as mountain produce, with fish sourced from the Onomichi market and elsewhere.
  • 🍱Half-board comes in Standard and Deluxe plans, which differ in the grade of cuisine.
  • 🍽️Overnight guests may use the dining room from 4 to 8 PM.
Nostalgic shop and retro interiors

Nostalgic shop and retro interiors

  • 🍬The shop stocks old-fashioned sweets, ramune, milk, canned and draft beer, sours and selected shochu.
  • 📻Showa-retro decorations fill the building.

A modest inn for enjoying soft, metasilicic-acid-rich radon water in a Showa-retro setting. Note that some rooms lack a toilet, a car is the easiest way to get here, and it closes from December 29 to January 1.
