🏞️Bathe in a two-storey-high bathhouse looking out on the stream and a small waterfall
📜Founded in 1753, in the Horeki era, and known as the 'four-day bath' for how fast it healed wounds

Okukuji Kaiseki, the Taste of Ibaraki

🍶A four-season Okukuji kaiseki drawn from the mountains and the sea
🥩Local specialities across the table — Hitachi beef, ankonabe, duck hotpot, yamame trout
👨‍🍳Led since 2008 by a chef trained at Ginza's new-Japanese restaurants

A Night in the Mountains

🌆At dusk, lit windows and the old farmhouse facade set the mood
🌿Mountains and a stream through the seasons, right outside the window
🚗About 40 minutes from Naka IC on the Joban Expressway via Route 349

A mountain hideaway where three centuries of Yokogawa Onsen meet wa-modern rooms carved out of an old farmhouse. Soak in pH 10.1 beauty water, taste a kaiseki built on Okukuji's seasons, and let the night stay quiet.
