An arched inn on the hillside

• 🏛️Built in 1993 by the former Kitamimaki village as a lodging that doubles as a day-trip spa, it reopened after a remodel in April 2016.
• ⛰️The modern arched building sits on a hill slope, and every room looks out over the Asama mountain range.
• 🛏️With only 12 rooms in total, it is a small, intimate inn.

Outdoor bath facing the Asama range

• ♨️The sodium-calcium chloride spring emerges at 56.5°C; it is clear, slightly salty and keeps you warm long after bathing.
• 🌄From the outdoor bath the view sweeps across the Yaehara plateau farmland and the Chikuma River to the Asama range.
• 💧Only source water flows from the spout, and the bath is also filtered for hygiene as instructed by the health authority.

Four room types

• 🛁Two Japanese-Western rooms with a panoramic bath (about 36㎡) overlook farmland and the Asama range, but the in-room tub currently uses heated tap water rather than hot spring water, so 2,000 yen per person is discounted.

• 🎌Two Japanese-style rooms (about 25㎡) sleep up to 5, and four twin rooms (about 19㎡) sleep up to 2; rooms have Wi-Fi.
