Iwaki Yumoto Onsen Genroku Saigayado Furutakiya

An onsen ryokan founded in the Genroku era, in the Iwaki Yumoto hot-spring town

Iwaki Yumoto Onsen Genroku Saigayado Furutakiya is a historic onsen ryokan in the hot-spring town of Iwaki Yumoto, founded in the Genroku era. It is a 7-minute walk from Yumoto Station on the JR Joban Line and about 10 minutes by car from the Iwaki Yumoto Interchange on the Joban Expressway, so it is easy to reach by train or by car.

Iwaki Yumoto's natural onsen, where the hotel says babies may bathe

You can enjoy Iwaki Yumoto's natural onsen on the property. Asked whether babies may bathe in the onsen, the ryokan answers, "Yes, of course," and because the water, including its temperature, is stronger on the skin than a bath at home, they recommend pouring a little of it over your baby at a time before getting in. It is a thoughtful touch for families hoping to make their onsen debut together with a baby who is not yet out of diapers. It is worth confirming when you book which baths you can actually use and under what conditions.

Rooms with an open-air bath, and hotel facilities

Guest rooms have a bath and toilet, and rooms with an open-air bath are also available, so you can soak at your family's own pace without worrying about other guests. Wi-Fi is available in every room, and the building and guest rooms are non-smoking, with a smoking corner on the 9th floor.

A location that puts parents at ease

There is a 24-hour Lawson convenience store next to Furutakiya, a municipal hospital 2 minutes away by car, and a pediatric clinic 5 to 6 minutes away by car. That makes a sudden fever easier to handle, and the ryokan is an easy place to stay with children from babies through elementary school age.
