Konya Ryokan Hotel

Konya in Tamatsukuri Onsen is a long-established Japanese-style hot spring Ryokan (Japanese inn) that was founded in the Edo period and boasts over 300 years of history. The hot spring is a sulfate spring that is rich in medicinal properties and is said to be good for the skin. You can bathe in the large, tasteful bath or the open-air bath. There is a plan that includes two meals at a reasonable price, and for dinner you can enjoy a kaiseki kaiseki（a traditional Japanese multiple course meal ）that is an adaptation of Izumo Honzen, a meal offered to the gods.

This hotel draws on hot spring water with many beneficial properties, also known as "beauty skin water." You can enjoy it to the fullest in the quaint large bath and the open-air bath. Day trip bathing is also available, so you can easily enjoy the hot springs even if you are in Shimane Prefecture on a business trip. There is also a day trip plan that includes lunch, where you can take a break in your room, and you can enjoy a kaiseki meal made with plenty of ingredients unique to Shimane Prefecture.

 Izumo Kamigami Enmusubi no Yado is about a 10-minute drive from Tamatsukuri Onsen Station, and they offer a free shuttle service. The inn features a spacious public bath and an open-air bath where you can enjoy the skin-beautifying waters. Staying in a room with a private open-air bath is relatively affordable here, so it's definitely worth considering! Dinner can be served in your room or a private dining room, ensuring you can enjoy your mealtime privately as a couple. This inn also offers a colorful yukata rental service, which is perfect for taking some great commemorative photos!

Ryokan (Japanese inn) has a calming atmosphere and is surrounded by a vast Japanese garden. You can relax and unwind while looking out at the four different gardens from the bath or your room. The moisturizing hot spring water, which is like lotion, can be enjoyed in the large communal bath and open-air bath. There is also a private open-air bath, so why not take a relaxing bath with your married couple once in a while?

This is a wonderful traditional Japanese inn (ryokan) conveniently located close to Lake Shinji. They offer a complimentary shuttle service from the nearest JR Tamatsukuri-Onsen Station, making it super easy for train travelers! Your room will be a comfortable Japanese-style tatami room, offering lovely views of a traditional Japanese garden. When it comes to the hot springs, you'll find indoor and outdoor baths, plus the fantastic option of a private reservable bath – perfect if you prefer to enjoy the onsen without sharing! For your meals, prepare to indulge in local delicacies like turban shell (sazae), abalone (awabi), and premium Shimane Wagyu beef. Be sure to try the Nita rice served at breakfast; it's highly acclaimed across Japan for its exceptional taste! Lake Shinji is about a 20-minute walk from the ryokan, and catching the sunset there on a leisurely stroll is highly recommended.

Although it is an old-fashioned inn, you can see the river from the rooms, and in spring the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. In summer, it is refreshingly cool. There are few people in the hot spring during the day, so you can relax. There is also an open-air bath, which is perfect for washing away the sweat on a hot summer day. However, please be aware that there is not much around.
