The facility itself is a large public bath at the fitness club attached to the Prince Hotel, and the hot water was smooth and soft due to the salt content.I was a little surprised because I didn't think I could taste hot water like this in Karuizawa.

The bath was nice, but the cleaning lady warned me when my child made a little loud noise. Even though there were other people whose voices were louder. . It's a shame because there were many people with children at Momiji Onsen and they were very accommodating. . So why not ban infants from bathing? I can't control everything about the child and I don't want the mother to suffer.

A hot spring bathing facility exclusively for guests (excluding cottages). Of course it was empty, no complaints other than the temperature of the steam sauna was a little low, and the view was good.
