There are several Ryokan (Japanese inn) in Hanamaki Onsen. However, I thought that the source of the springs is the same within Hanamaki Onsen, so the water would be the same no matter where you stay. However, due to budget constraints, I stayed one night at this Ryokan (Japanese inn) and one night at another Ryokan (Japanese inn), and found that the water was completely different. The water here makes your skin moist and smooth. The waitresses were also very nice. I recommend it.

This inn is located in Okutsukyo Gorge, Okayama Prefecture, which is famous for its autumn leaves. The hot springs, known as "foot-welling artesian springs," are rare even in Japan.
