About this ryokan

♨️Four free-flowing hot spring baths and Aizu cuisine by a mountain stream

Fukushima · Kutsurogijuku Shintaki

1,300 years of onsen history

📜Higashiyama Onsen is said to have been discovered about 1,300 years ago by the monk Gyoki, and flourished as the Aizu domain's healing spa in the Edo period.
🖼️Taisho-era painter Takehisa Yumeji stayed here three times; a gallery beside the lobby displays several of his works, including his signature portraits of women.
🌊The ryokan sits in the heart of the hot spring town, along the Yukawa stream.

Pure source hot springs

♨️All four distinct baths are kake-nagashi: no water added, no reheating, no recirculation or filtration.
🧪The water is a sodium-calcium sulfate-chloride spring, said to help chronic skin conditions, arteriosclerosis and neuralgia.
🏞️The Sennen-no-Yu outdoor bath faces the Yukawa directly, so you soak to the sound of the stream.

The baths

🌲Watari-yu is a hinoki-cypress bath reimagining the old toji spa, with a footbath, a men's outdoor bath and a women's semi-outdoor bath.
⚔️Saru-no-Yu recalls the tale of Hijikata Toshizo visiting to heal his wounds during the Boshin War, and has an outdoor bath too.
🔑Sennen-no-Yu (outdoor bath and bedrock rock bath) is down about 27 steep steps with no showers or shampoo; from 19:00 to 23:55 it becomes a private bath for guests, reserved by phone.

A wide range of rooms

🛏️Options include the Main Building Japanese Suite (only 3, twin beds plus 12 tatami mats), the Annex Semi-Suite (48㎡) and a two-room Western corner room with four beds (55㎡).
🌿The riverside Japanese-modern twins combine beds with a tatami area and look down on the Yukawa.
🚭All rooms have been non-smoking since 2017, and futons are laid out before check-in.

Nine special rooms with private baths

🌳Two mountain-side semi-suites opened in 2026 with a spacious terrace and open-air source bath, ideal for families.
🛁One riverside twin with a Japanese living room, renovated in 2024, has an indoor source bath big enough for two adults.
🔞Six adults-only rooms with semi-open-air baths (rooms 11-13 on the 1st floor, 01-03 in the basement) are closed to children 12 and under and come with a private lounge.

Aizu flavors and local sake

🍱Dinner is a creative Aizu regional set menu served in the dining room, featuring horse sashimi, yuba and the local kozuyu soup.
🍚Rice is Aizu-grown Koshihikari, and guests staying two nights get a different menu on the second night.
🍶More than 30 Aizu sakes are always on hand, and breakfast is a homemade buffet centered on local ingredients.

Facilities

☕The 1st-floor lobby lounge offers books and photo collections about Aizu plus self-service coffee and tea (15:00-23:00, 6:00-11:00).
🏓The table tennis room is free in 30-minute slots, with rackets and balls provided.
🎁The Haikara-san shop (7:30-21:30) sells a curated selection of souvenirs.

Getting there

🚃From JR Aizu-Wakamatsu Station (Ban'etsu West Line), take the town loop bus about 15 minutes to Higashiyama Onsen Eki stop, then walk about 3 minutes (taxi about 15 minutes).
🚌There is no station shuttle; if you have heavy luggage or the weather is bad, call from the bus stop and staff will pick you up in about 5 minutes.
🚗About 20 minutes from the Aizu-Wakamatsu IC on the Ban'etsu Expressway; staff guide parking and valet parking is available on request.

🌲Watari-yu is a hinoki-cypress bath reimagining the old toji spa, with a footbath, a men's outdoor bath and a women's semi-outdoor bath.
⚔️Saru-no-Yu recalls the tale of Hijikata Toshizo visiting to heal his wounds during the Boshin War, and has an outdoor bath too.
