A small inn in 150-year-old Mimata Onsen

• 📜Mimata Onsen was discovered in 1864, late in the Edo period, and grew into a quiet healing spa along the Mimata River.
• 🏯During the Russo-Japanese War it hosted a sanatorium for the Hamada Regiment; the current source was drilled in 1996.
• 🏠A compact inn with 8 rooms for up to 36 guests, with the front desk, dining room and shop on the ground floor.

Free-flowing 'beauty bath' spring

• ♨️An alkaline simple spring at 47.1°C at the source, clear and colorless with a slightly silky feel, known as a 'beauty bath'.
• 💧The water flows straight from the source without heating, and a Hamada City analysis found it rich in metasilicic acid, which helps moisturize skin.
• 🕰️The men's bath is on the 2nd floor and the women's on the 3rd; bathing hours are 6:00-10:00 and 16:00 to 22:00 or 23:00.
