It's reasonably priced and the hot water is very good. It might be the best in Kikuchi. The food was satisfying 😆 Even though the building is old, it is well kept. You can feel the handmade inns here and there. There was also a Family Mart nearby, which was convenient. I will repeat it again.

I stopped by to take a bath. There is a family bath and an open-air bath nearby, but I used the indoor bath.The spring quality is a simple spring, but it has a nice smooth and soft feel. The water temperature is moderate, but the bathhouse is quite hot and stuffy.It is one of the 88 hot springs in Kyushu, and is about a 10-minute walk from the Kikuchi Onsen Civic Plaza. The bathing fee is 600 yen.

One of the 88 hot springs in KyushuI was allowed to stop by and use the hot springs.There are three parking lots, and if you add them all together, I think you can park several dozen cars.There are separate indoor baths and open-air baths, so use the open-air bath.The ticket costs 600 yen and can be purchased from a ticket vending machine.If you are a JAF member, it will cost you 400 yen (200 yen discount), and you will have to ask the staff and pay directly at the counter.I haven't used the indoor bath so I don't know the details.There is a footbath on the open-air side, which is free to use.There is only one open-air bath, but the location is good as it is near the river.There is a complete set of horse oil shampoo etc., but there is no separate washing area, so you have to wash using hot water.There is space for two people, but it's really only for one person.The spring quality is clear and slippery.I'm slimy at a level that competes for 1st and 2nd in the past.Looks pretty good for your skin ♪Considering that you can use the hot springs for 400 yen with JAF discount, it was a very satisfying hot spring.

There is an open-air bath surrounded by nature and an indoor family bath.There is no shower in the open-air bath, so those who wish to take a shower will have to use the family bath.It's not cheap, but you can relax in the hot spring surrounded by nature, so please stop by the open-air bath.There is a locker with a key in the changing room (free of charge)No saunaFree parking available

I used it at a drop-in bath.Reception may be difficult to understand. It's near the river in the back.Same location as the family bath reception.The open-air bath costs 600 yen, and if you are a JAF member it costs 400 yen, so don't forget!Open-air bath locker available (free)Unfortunately, there is no shower or washing machine to wash your body❗️Horse oil shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and hair dryer are provided.I had a luxurious bath in the hot springs.I thought it would be slippery even after shampooing, but it turned out to be my favorite slimy hot spring♨️!! ️The open-air bath also has a roof.The sound of water flowing by the river will soothe you😁

Facilities covered by the 88 hot springs tourOpen-air bath ¥600Free lockers available, shampoo providedThere are two washing areas and no shower, so you have to use a basin to wash your body from the bathtub or overflowing water, which is a hassle.The open air is hot and the quality of the spring water is good. You can hear the sound of the river along the river, but there are plants so the view is not that great.The changing room is stuffy, probably because of the high humidity.
