Communal and Open-Air Baths with Tubs at Different Temperatures
The communal bath is fed by the slightly cloudy Shirohata spring in front of Yubatake, while the open-air bath uses clear Bandai-kō spring water. Both are free-flowing directly from their sources. Kusatsu's spring water is relatively hot, but tubs maintained at different temperatures allow guests who are uncomfortable with very hot onsen water to enjoy bathing. This also makes it easier for children to experience Kusatsu's onsen.
A Buffet with Plenty of Choice for Children
Yu-kumo, the new buffet dining venue that opened in 2024, serves Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes, including sushi prepared at the live kitchen and roast beef made with Joshu beef. Children can choose the foods they like. Guests who prefer a more relaxed meal can instead choose a Japanese-style course at Kimi no Roman, a dining venue with Taisho-era Romantic decor.
