With a large parking lot, this hot spring is perfect for climbing Norikura.This is probably the third time.It's great because you can pop in quickly on your way home.I'm very happy to be able to bathe in the open-air bath while looking at the ski resort.There is also a restaurant attached, but I would like to try that next time.The people at the reception were very kind and I had a pleasant time climbing.

Use your hot spring passport to take a day trip bath at half price ♨️As it is the entrance to the Northern Alps and the closest to Honokidaira Ski Resort, Norikura, and Goshikigahara, it is a healing hot spring inn that has been used by many people for a long time. I'm grateful that it can be used all year round as a base forThere are two spacious large baths with hot and lukewarm baths. The open-air bath where you can enjoy the view of the ski slopes all year round is also the best~♡♡You can enjoy nature to the fullest just by looking out at the vast and open ski slope in front of you 🌿🕊️ It feels really good to take a bath in the outside air after the sauna! ︎It is a luxurious natural hot spring that gushes out from 1,000 meters underground at the foot of Mt. Norikura in the Northern Alps 🧖‍♀️In addition, since it is a sodium hydrogen carbonate spring, you can expect many benefits such as fatigue recovery, bruises, neuralgia, and muscle pain!It's a place you'll want to visit again when you want to heal from the fatigue of your trip 😌

I used this hotel to visit Kamikochi on a motorcycle tour during the May holidays. Since it was the middle day of a four-day holiday, none of the hotels around Hirayu were available, but we were lucky because we could book a reservation the day before we left and the price was cheap. The hotel receptionist was very kind and guided me to the covered motorcycle parking lot.Although the bath time was a bit limited, the bath itself overlooking the ski resort was nice, and the meals were plentiful both in the morning and evening, and even during the Golden Week period, the price for one night and two meals was less than 10,000 yen. I was grateful for the price.

Stayed for one night. No one was there when I checked in, and no one answered when I called. I had no choice but to go to the cafeteria and was told that there was a check-in sheet and key at the reception desk, so I should use it. There are no specific meal times, and if you come directly to the cafeteria and ask, they will serve it to you.The food was okay, and the open-air bath was pretty good. However, it was early (until 10pm) and I couldn't get in the next morning either. The front door was locked around 9 o'clock and no one was allowed to go out. Is it more of a guesthouse than a hotel?

600 yen for adults, seems like a tattoo friendly place. Outdoor onsen has a nice view of the ski mountain. Shampoo, conditioner, body shampoo and hair dryer are provided. Would recommend for people visiting kamikochi or takayama!
