Overview
Kusatsu Onsen Yubatake Sensui is a room-only inn a 1-minute walk from the Yubatake, the hot-water field that is the symbol of Kusatsu Onsen. Every room has its own onsen bath fed straight from the source and a kitchenette. There is no communal bath; instead, each room has the onsen to itself, so your family can bathe together without watching the clock. The Family Loft Room with an open-air bath sleeps up to 4, and up to 2 children can co-sleep. There is no parking at the inn, so drivers use the free parking at the sister property and a shuttle bus.
Rooms
This room-only inn opened in March 2024, a 1-minute walk from the Yubatake, and every room has an onsen bath fed straight from the source. There are four room types. The Standard Room with an open-air bath is 34 sq m and sleeps 2 adults, and the Universal Room with an onsen bath is 43 sq m and also sleeps 2 adults. The Universal Room is built with as few steps as possible, and for that reason its bath, fed straight from the source, is placed indoors. The only room at Yubatake Sensui where 4 guests can stay together is the 39 sq m Family Loft Room with an open-air bath. The 53 sq m Deluxe Room with an open-air bath sleeps 2 guests and has two beds, each 140 cm wide. Each room has a kitchenette with cooking equipment, including a microwave, an induction cooktop, a kettle, tableware and a refrigerator.
Dining
As this is a room-only inn, dinner and breakfast are not served, but from 7:30 a.m. there is a free light-meal service for staying guests at Kamon, the restaurant on the first floor. Kamon serves dishes made with local Gunma ingredients and has 47 seats in all: 39 regular seats plus 8 footbath seats. Of the 34 table seats, 8 can be used as a private room, so it is easy to eat there with young children without worrying about other guests. It is open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., with last orders at 8 p.m.
Baths and Onsen
There is no communal bath; instead, each room has its own bath where you can enjoy the onsen for as long as you like. Water from the Yubatake source is piped into every room, and since every room has an onsen bath, there is no need to reserve a separate private-hire bath. Kusatsu Onsen is a strongly acidic spring, so children with sensitive skin may develop skin irritation. If you are concerned, the inn advises either using the shower only or rinsing the spring water off in the shower after bathing.
Family-Friendly Features
Up to 2 children can co-sleep. Children from age 0 through elementary school stay on a co-sleeping basis regardless of age, and even if the booking system shows "futon bedding included," no additional bedding is provided. To book a child aged 4 or over with meals and bedding, you need to choose the rate category that includes both. Guests take off their shoes on the guest-room floors, which can also be used by guests in a wheelchair.
Access
The inn is a 1-minute walk from the Yubatake and about a 5-minute walk from the Kusatsu Onsen Bus Terminal. There is no parking on the grounds, however, so drivers use either the paid Yubatake Kanko Parking or the free parking at the sister property, Kusatsu Now Resort Hotel. If you use the sister property's parking, you transfer to the free shuttle bus that runs between the hotel and Yubatake Soan, a 1-minute walk from the inn. The street in front of the inn is narrow and busy with pedestrians, so cars cannot stop or park there; you need to leave your car in a parking lot and walk the rest of the way. Early check-in and late checkout may be possible, depending on the situation on the day.
