forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 5.00 out of 5 (68 reviews). This is a small onsen inn set among the farmland along the tsuji basha (horse-drawn carriage) route, with Mount Yufu directly ahead. All of the bathing is private-hire, so families can enjoy a soak on their own without worrying about other guests. Rooms can be chosen from Japanese-style tatami, Japanese-Western and twin. The building's guest floors are the 2nd and 3rd, and there is no elevator, so it is worth asking the inn in advance if you will be using a stroller.
