Frequently Asked Questions

Can small children co-sleep with parents at Kissho Yamanaka?

expand_more

Yes. Most rooms are Japanese-style tatami rooms, and the tatami spaces make it easy for small children to co-sleep with parents. Families whose children aren't comfortable with the communal bath can also relax in their own room's bath instead, since some rooms come with a ceramic bath or an open-air bath.

Is there an age restriction for the communal bath or private-hire baths?

expand_more

No specific age limit is stated for the communal bath, open-air bath, sauna, or private-hire baths (family baths), so we recommend confirming young children's bathing and diaper handling directly with the ryokan when you book.

Are the private-hire baths free, and how many are there?

There are three private-hire baths with different atmospheres - hinoki-wood, rock, and stone. One 50-minute session is free on a same-day, first-come first-served basis.
