The fine print

Last checked November 11, 2026.

Onsen

In some baths. Hot-spring water in the open-air public bath and the annex rooms

The open-air public bath is cloudy Owakudani water, free-flowing. The indoor public bath is not hot-spring water.

Bath in your room

Some rooms. Open-air or view bath in 7 of 10 room types

Hot-spring water in four of them: the three annex rooms (Kiga spring) and the 70 m² semi-open-air room (Owakudani). The ryokan doesn't say what fills the others. One room has an indoor ceramic tub; two have a shower only.

Private bath

Yes. Private baths, one semi-open-air facing Mt Myojogatake

The ryokan's page doesn't give a price, time limit or how to book. Two private bedrock saunas are free, booked in 45-minute slots.

Tattoos

Not stated. The ryokan's site doesn't say

Ask the ryokan before you book if you plan to use the public baths.

Meals

Included with some stays. Room-only, breakfast, dinner and two-meal plans

Dinner is served in the dining room.

Dietary needs

Some diets. Guests with food allergies may be refused meals

The operator, Relo Hotels & Resorts, changed its allergy policy on 1 September 2025: if a reaction is possible, the ryokan may decline to serve food rather than adapt it.

Children

With limits. Welcome in the main building

Not in the three annex rooms for children of primary-school age or younger.

Check-in and dinner

Call the ryokan if you will check in after 18:00

With no word 3 hours after your stated arrival time, the ryokan treats the booking as cancelled.
