Hakutetsu no Yu Manzatei

A traditional hot spring inn surrounded by the abundant natural beauty of Joshin’etsukogen National Park. Located in Manza Onsen, Gunma Prefecture, Hakutetsu no Yu Manzatei offers free-flowing water drawn directly from the springs of Manza Onsen, which has welcomed visitors seeking therapeutic hot spring treatments since the Edo period.

Manza Onsen’s milky-white, acidic sulfur water has a smooth texture that gently soothes both body and mind. In addition to a warm and inviting wooden indoor bath, the inn features a log-built open-air bath overlooking the seasonal scenery and private baths, allowing guests to relax in these renowned waters.

The inn offers a variety of accommodations, primarily tranquil Japanese-style rooms, as well as Japanese-Western rooms and special rooms with semi-open-air baths. The selection accommodates a wide range of travel styles, from solo trips to family vacations.

Another highlight is the seasonal Japanese cuisine, prepared with highland vegetables grown in Tsumagoi, mountain produce, and other ingredients from the Joshu region. The inn also features a calligraphy-themed sauna, a reading area, and a café, where guests can spend their time as they please alongside the hot springs.

Surrounded by fresh air and magnificent natural scenery at an elevation of approximately 1,800 m, the inn offers relaxing soaks in the distinctive waters of Manza Onsen and a peaceful retreat.
