Dai-ichi Takimotokan

Since its founding in 1858, "Dai-ichi Takimotokan" has been beloved as the symbol of Noboribetsu Onsen, a traditional inn boasting over 160 years of history. Its greatest feature is a 1,500-tsubo grand bathhouse where you can enjoy five different types of hot spring waters at once—a rarity even in Japan. Situated in a prime location facing Jigokudani (Hell Valley), a total of 35 baths for men and women let you enjoy renowned waters with different benefits, such as sulfur springs and salt springs, around the clock. The rugged yet beautiful scenery of Jigokudani viewed from the open-air bath is especially breathtaking. In addition, an indoor heated pool and water slider that can be enjoyed in swimwear are fully equipped, making it ideal for three-generation family trips. All 385 guest rooms cater to a wide range of needs, from rooms with open-air baths—the only ones in Noboribetsu Onsen offering views of Jigokudani—to traditional Japanese-style rooms, modern Western-style rooms, and even "dog rooms" where you can stay with your pet. For dining, you can choose according to your travel style, with options including a buffet featuring the flavors of Hokkaido, as well as Japanese banquet cuisine served in semi-private room settings. Within the facility, there are plenty of delights to enrich your stay, such as the giant 9-meter-tall "Dai-Kanabo" (Great Iron Club) and souvenir shops. Enjoy a hot spring experience that heals both body and mind through the warm hospitality that has continued since the Edo period.
