Miyagi · Ryokan Nanbuya

1

A Small Showa-Era Hot Spring Inn

• 🏮A small ryokan in Higashi-Naruko Onsen, part of the Naruko Onsen area, with a history of more than 650 years.
• 🏺The building keeps a Showa-era inn atmosphere, with antiques collected by the previous owner placed throughout.
• 👣Tatami corridors run from the entrance, so you can go slipper-free during your stay.

2

Hime-no-yu Baths and Open-Air Baths

• ♨️Colorless, odorless bicarbonate spring water, described as good for the skin among other benefits.
• 🪨There are two baths, cypress and rock, each with its own open-air bath and a reclining bath.
• 🔄Men's and women's sides swap in the evening, so you can try both baths in one day (closed 8-10 a.m. for cleaning).

Akahai-no-yu, the Original Source

• 🔥A small, old-style bath using the spring source in use since the inn opened, hotter than Hime-no-yu.
• 🔑Overnight guests can reserve it privately; just ask the staff.
• 🧺Bath towels, toothbrushes and other amenities are lent free of charge (closed 10-11 a.m. for cleaning).

4

Tatami Guest Rooms

• 🛏️All 15 rooms are traditional Japanese tatami rooms, ranging from 6 to 10 tatami mats.
• 🚽Most rooms have a washlet toilet, but some 10-mat rooms on the main building's 2nd floor (Satsuki, Ayame, Kiku) have no toilet and are priced lower.
• ♿The 10-mat rooms on the new wing's 1st floor face the large bath, convenient for guests with limited mobility.

5

Vegetable-Rich Homemade Dinner

• 🥗Dinner is creative Japanese-Western fusion cooking with plenty of vegetables; sashimi and a whole-tomato salad are always served.
• 🍂Everything is homemade with seasonal local ingredients, so the menu changes through the year.
• ⚠️Dishes cannot be altered for allergies or dislikes; children of elementary school age and younger get a separate kids' menu.

6

Country Breakfast and Signature Mochi

• 🍚Rice is Hitomebore from Tajiri, Miyagi, grown with reduced pesticides.
• 🍡Freshly pounded mochi is served every morning; the fried mochi is the most popular.
• ☕Vegetable miso soup made with miso from Koizumi Koji-ya in Iwadeyama, plus complimentary morning coffee.
