An open-air onsen bath in every room (tatami floor, support for a baby's first onsen)
Every room has an indoor bath and an open-air onsen bath, and you can bathe whenever you like, 24 hours a day. The bathroom floor is laid with tatami, so it is less slippery and reassuring even for a baby who is just starting to toddle. Baby soap, a bath towel and a foot-drying bath mat are provided for babies, and the water temperature can be adjusted in increments of 0.1°C, so the baths are set up with a baby's first time in an onsen in mind.

Meals are served either in your room or at the ryotei (a traditional Japanese restaurant), so families with young children can dine with peace of mind. Children under 4, meaning ages 3 and under, stay free - a pricing policy that makes it easy for a family to come back again and again.
