Nukumori no Yado Furu-kawa
A hot spring inn in Jozankei, a beautiful valley designated as part of Shikotsu-Toya National Park. With “hometown” as its theme, this wood-warmed retreat welcomes guests with heartfelt hospitality from staff in samue workwear. The three-level bathhouse features a garden inspired by Jozankei’s nature, and you can enjoy seasonal scenery while soaking in open-air baths and large public baths, each with its own character.
On this trip to Jozankei, I stayed at Nukumori no Yado Furu-kawa. The entire hotel felt as warm and welcoming as its name suggests, with the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese inn. From the moment I entered, the surroundings felt very comfortable and perfect for a relaxing vacation.
The room was very comfortable, and the Japanese-style decor gave it a special atmosphere. After soaking in the hot spring and returning to the room to rest, I felt completely relaxed. Especially in the cold weather, this kind of stay was truly enjoyable.
