This is a historic luxury Ryokan (Japanese inn) that has many repeat customers in Japan. You can enjoy the famous "Kinsen" hot spring in Arima Onsen, Hyogo Prefecture. For dinner, you can enjoy a seasonal kaiseki（a traditional Japanese multiple course meal ）. There is also a Japanese-style garden inside the building, and being able to enjoy the view in a relaxing space is the charm of this adults-only inn.

スタンダードの部屋でもウッドデッキがあり露天風呂から海の景色を眺めることができます。接客もお料理も日本人にも好評で、満足度の高い温泉旅館です。大浴場はありませんが貸切風呂があり、そちらで十分満足できると思います。広島県の福山市にある旅館で、宮崎駿監督のジブリアニメ映画「崖の上のポニョ」の舞台にもなった「鞆の浦」にあります。せっかく広島に行かれるのであれば鞆の浦での観光もおすすめです。

We recommend the Kusatsu Onsen Hotel Ichii, Ryokan (Japanese inn) located in a hot spring area 25 minutes by bus from Naganohara-Kusatsuguchi Station. The tourist spot, the Yubatake, is right in front of the hotel, and although it's limited, you can see it from the rooms. The open-air bath is surrounded by nature, the air is fresh, and the large bath is comfortable. Yumomi (A technique in which a board approximately 180cm long is placed in the hot spring to stir the water and lower the temperature until it is ready to bathe.) experience costs 600 yen for adults, so it's perfect for tourists. For meals, you can choose between a Japanese course meal or a kaiseki meal.

The inn is located a 3-minute walk from Kobe Electric Railway Arima Onsen Station. There is also a shuttle bus. The cleaning is thorough and you can stay comfortably. There is free Wi-Fi, so you can do research without any problems. There is an open-air bath and a spacious large bath. The brown open-air bath, which is unique to Arima Onsen, feels very good. There are Japanese-style rooms where you can experience the Japanese atmosphere, and there are rooms with beds for those who don't like futons.

ホテルの立地が良く箱根観光におすすめです。できて日が浅いので部屋もきれいですし、部屋数も全10室と少ないので落ち着いた時間を過ごせると思います。露天風呂付きのお部屋もありよりラグジュアリーな時間を過ごせますよ。ホテルではありますが日本らしい和の雰囲気のある外観でいい思い出になると思います。

This is a pension-style hotel with a garden on the premises. The natural hot spring bath is available for private use 24 hours a day, so you can relax. The luxurious rooms are highly recommended for this price range. You can experience Yumomi (A technique in which a board approximately 180cm long is placed in the hot spring to stir the water and lower the temperature until it is ready to bathe.) experience at "Netsu-no-yu," a 13-minute walk from the pension.

This hotel is located in Kyoto and is part of the popular "Hoshinoya" group, which is also popular in Japan. The luxurious rooms and facilities are wonderful, but the biggest attraction of this inn is the activities. You can actually experience Kyoto culture, such as appreciating incense and performing services at a Zen temple. To allow you to immerse yourself in these experiences and the scenery of Kyoto, there are no TVs or radios in the rooms. This inn offers a rare array of activities, even in Japan, where you can immerse yourself in Japanese culture in an extraordinary space.

This inn is located in Hyogo Prefecture, where you can enjoy beautiful scenery. As the name suggests, it is an environment where you can enjoy Japanese sunsets to your heart's content. All rooms have an open-air bath, so it is recommended for those who are concerned about sharing the large public bath or hot spring with other guests. For dinner, kaiseki（a traditional Japanese multiple course meal ）made with locally produced ingredients is served. Junior high school students and younger are not allowed to stay, so you can enjoy the Japanese garden in a quiet space.

こちらは、犬山城近くにある歴史ある旅館です。日本のお城だけでなく、壮麗な木曽川の眺望も一見の価値ありです。全客室に檜風呂が備わっており、入浴中もプライベート性を重視する方にはぴったりですよ。宿までのアクセスは、名鉄「犬山駅」からタクシーで約7分ほです。または、事前予約性の送迎サービスも利用できます。

日本観光で人気な嵐山エリアにあるラグジュアリーホテルです。大人の宿泊に特化したホテルで、露天風呂付きタイプのお部屋もあります。美しい嵐山の景色はもちろんですが、フレンチと和食が融合したような創作料理も魅力のひとつです。JR「嵯峨嵐山駅」から徒歩約10分程度で着くため、電車で向かう際も便利ですよ。

Located in Okayama Prefecture, this inn features a typically Japanese wooden structure. It is a small, high-class inn that is registered as a tangible cultural property, and its exterior and interior have a charm that gives a sense of its long history. In front of the inn is a lounge that was renovated from a 100-year-old traditional Japanese house. In the evening, enjoy a drink in this lounge where quiet music is playing, and soak in the afterglow of your trip to Japan.

The inn is a 20-minute drive from Gamagori Station on the JR Tokaido Main Line, and a shuttle bus (advance reservation required) is also available. The location is easily accessible from urban areas in the Tokai region. It is also very convenient for visiting tourist spots such as Laguna Ten Bosch and Takeshima. We recommend this inn to those who want to do a bit of sightseeing as well as experience the hot springs.

How about staying at this resort hotel where you can enjoy Kusatsu Onsen? You can experience Yumomi (A technique in which a board approximately 180cm long is placed in the hot spring to stir the water and lower the temperature until it is ready to bathe.)) at the hotel for a fee. The hotel has a variety of outdoor facilities, including hot springs, a pool, amusement facilities, tennis courts, and cycling, so everyone from adults to children can enjoy themselves. There is a shuttle bus to Kusatsu Station. You can also walk to the Yubatake, or there is a shuttle bus available.

I think 10,000 yen for two meals is a bit steep, but it's possible with a limited plan. Since it's close to the Yubatake, you can also experience Yumomi (A technique in which a board approximately 180cm long is placed in the hot spring to stir the water and lower the temperature until it is ready to bathe.), and being close to the Yubatake means being close to the bus terminal, so I think this is a place that meets your needs. Kusatsu's selling point is the quality of its hot spring water, so I recommend this inn at the source of the Yubatake hot spring water.

We recommend "Boun" as Ryokan (Japanese inn) in Kusatsu Onsen. It takes 25 minutes by bus from Naganohara-Kusatsuguchi Station to reach Kusatsu Onsen Bus Terminal, and then a 7-minute walk from there to Ryokan. Near the Ryokan, you can see the popular Yubatake hot springs, a show of Yumomi (A technique in which a board approximately 180cm long is placed in the hot spring to stir the water and lower the temperature until it is ready to bathe.), and experience Yumomi. Ryokan has six baths, including an open-air bath, so you can enjoy the hot springs to your heart's content. For meals, you can also try Himemasu dishes.
