I took care of them several times for daily bathing and once for overnight stay. We are currently closed, but we are looking forward to reopening as soon as possible. There must be many people who think so.The building from the old spa days remains, and the baths and guest rooms have been renovated and used, but I'm looking forward to the renovations starting again.The food was so delicious that I couldn't believe it was a lodging in the mountains (sorry, this is my honest impression). It's absolutely delicious.For dessert, they serve homemade mille-feuille.My favorite was the Juwari Soba. I think the soba noodles are top class in Inawashiro.I will stay again just to eat that soba.

I stayed here with my family before it closed. We received a warm welcome and everyone said they would like to come again. We had been worried behind the scenes that the renovations would not be progressing, but we are very happy to hear that the rebuilding is starting in the early summer of 2024. I would like to visit again with my family. We are rooting for you.

I stayed here while climbing Mt. Bandai. It is located at an altitude of 650m at the foot of Mt. Bandai, about a 10-minute drive from JR Inawashiro Station, but in a quiet environment. It's unusual for a ryokan to have Robatayaki as the main dish for dinner, so we simply grilled autumn mountain delicacies. The source of the indoor bath is a slightly brown simple spring that contains iron. The mixed open-air bath in the large backyard (there is a women-only time in the morning and evening) is a simple, colorless and transparent spring. Both are free-flowing. The open-air bath uses hot water drawn from the source of the Inawashiro Resort Hotel. I had a good impression that the proprietress was bright, friendly, and talkative.

It is located near the Grand Sunpia Inawashiro Resort Ski Resort, at the foot of Mt. Bandai, approximately 4 km along Prefectural Route 7 towards Mt. Bandai.There are two types of hot springs, and the simple spring draws its water from the ski resort.Oshidate is pronounced ``otate''.

It seems that it is closed for renovations, but I am looking forward to reopening until the end of July 2019 instead of the end of April.It is said that the application process will take time, and the application will be postponed even further, with no hope of success.The open-air rock bath is a mixed bath with no enclosure and only natural standing trees. However, it is OK to wear a bath towel. During your stay, only women can bathe during certain hours.The source of Oshidate Onsen is a greenish-brown color that is heated and flows directly into the main indoor bath and semi-open-air bath in the large public baths for men and women.The Omotesandai source is clear and colorless, and is used in the small indoor baths in the large public baths for men and women, as well as in the mixed open-air baths.The mixed open-air bath is closed during the winter. It is a hot spring that makes you want to stay for a long time because it is relatively lukewarm.

I used it on my way back from climbing Mt. Bandai. I was able to take a relaxing bath in a very quiet environment.
