A long-established ryokan known for its “double skin-beautifying hot springs,” fed by two different natural sources. The waters are an alkaline simple spring and a sulfur spring, each offering different benefits and a distinct feel on the skin. By alternating between the two, guests can enjoy a soothing bath that helps leave skin feeling smooth. Along with indoor and open-air baths, the inn also has private open-air baths, “Takimi no Yu” and “Keiryu no Yu,” where you can relax quietly while listening to the sounds of nature.

There are 68 guest rooms, mainly Japanese-style rooms, along with Japanese-Western and Western-style options. Each room is wrapped in calm tones and the gentle scent of tatami, creating a peaceful space where you can forget the routines of daily life. For dinner, guests are served kaiseki cuisine made with an abundance of seasonal ingredients from the local Chikugo area, offering both beautiful presentation and seasonal flavors.

The inn also has banquet halls, karaoke, and table tennis spaces, adding the classic fun you would expect from a traditional hot spring inn. Surrounded by rich nature, skin-beautifying hot springs, and dishes filled with local ingredients, it is a soothing place to refresh both body and mind.
