Use the hot springs for a day trip. There are far fewer users than the lower Seseragi, so it might be perfect for those who don't like crowds. The madam at the reception is also very friendly and nice (*^^*) The floor of the bathhouse is wet (water quality) so be careful.

I stopped by on a trip to Hiroshima and Ehime. First, I went to the Nubukawa Seseragi Community Center, a day-trip hot spring facility, but it was closed due to the approaching typhoon, so I went to Minarakuso. The bathing fee is 500 yen, the bathing hours are from 9:00 to 17:00 (last entry at 16:00), and the spring quality is a simple alkaline spring containing radon. It felt so good to be in a hot spring surrounded by a clear valley. There is also a lunch course that includes hot spring bathing (reservation required), so next time I would like to consider staying overnight.

Day trip bathThe floor you enter is the 3rd floor, take the elevator down to the 1st floor and go to the public bath.Outside the large windows, you can see the flowing river and green trees. It would be great if there was an open-air bath.

A hot spring inn located in the Nabukawa Valley. It is located at the innermost part of Nabukawa Onsen, so the quality of the spring water is said to be very strong. The hot spring water has a mysterious texture of being thick and slippery, and you can even feel the hot spring water coming from the sink or shower. There are no jacuzzis, saunas, or open-air baths, so the quality of the hot springs is the only thing that matters, and the quality of the hot springs is absolutely amazing. The hot spring water comes from the room bath, but I felt that the hot spring water was stronger in the public bath, so I took a bath three times during my stay: in the afternoon, evening, and the next morning. Your skin will become smooth and your body will feel warm. The hot water would be a perfect score of 200.Unfortunately, the toilet in the room is smelly. However, the smell was quite disturbing. Although it was cleaned properly, it smelled like a mixture of sewage and mold. Perhaps because this area is a valley, it's very humid and the musty smell can't be helped. The room smells like new tatami mats, so there is no problem. Clean without any dust. The equipment is sufficient and I am satisfied.The meal was exquisite. The selection and taste are good, and the accommodation fee is reasonable, so is it really worth it for me to treat you like this? It was the state. It had an elegant and gentle flavor with less sweetness.This is an inn I would like to stay at again.

Strangely enough, it's highly rated on travel booking sites, but it's pretty average. An inn that provides the minimum level of service without too much or too little. A big plus point is that the quality of the hot springs at Nabukawa Onsen is good.The inn was used to accommodating children, and the dining venue was well-prepared with tableware and chairs from the beginning. It feels good to have new Anpanman tableware.Most of the dishes for adults were fish dishes. It was a fish that had nothing to do with the land. The volume was high in a good way. Breakfast is very safe.What was especially good was the hot springs. My skin becomes smooth. Every corner was clean as they had a cleaning company in attendance. The bathhouse was large considering the size of the inn, so I had a relaxing bath. For day-trippers, the ticket gate should have closed at 16:00, so you can enter slowly after that.However, the narrow bathhouse and the large bathhouse are swapped between men and women, so it may be the narrower one.If you choose a room with a bath, you can soak in the hot springs even in your room. It's a normal unit bath, but the water is hot spring. You can also add water and adjust the temperature.The room was really a normal room.The front staff also behaves more like a bathhouse than an inn.There's nothing around here, so I don't ask for any more services than that, just take a bath, eat, sleep, and go home, so I guess I don't have many complaints about the service.If you think about the food, baths, and price, it's a very good inn.
