Asahi-no-Yu

Asahi-no-Yu is a hot spring fed by a 100% natural water spring. Their baths use a special chemical composition of sodium, alkaline and sulfur, giving them excellent medicinal as well as relaxation properties that have made them well-loved by the locals. They have two indoor baths overflowing with warm spring water that reach almost 1m in depth, as well as an open-air bath.  We think you’ll find dipping between the two quite charming!

Their restaurant runs for lunch (each day, from 11:30 am to 2:00 pm) and dinner (weekends and holidays only, from 5:30 pm to 8:00 pm).
Visitors can also opt to stay overnight, enjoying nearby views of farmland cattle and horses, as well as getting to know the two local cats!
