  • Beppu SUGINOI HOTEL
  • Looking for Luxury Ryokans with Breathtaking Infinity Onsen!

I've been seeing those amazing infinity onsen on Instagram—the ones where the hot spring seems to merge right into the landscape. I'd love to experience one for myself! Can anyone recommend some top-tier onsen ryokans that have one? This is a special trip to treat myself and unwind from work, so budget isn't an issue. I'm looking for the best of the best!

Beppu SUGINOI HOTEL

1 Kankaiji

  • A Next-Level Stay: The New 'Sora-kan' Wing is a Must!

  • Since you mentioned that budget isn't an issue for your special trip, I highly recommend staying in the new 'Sora-kan' (Sky Wing). Our room was incredibly spacious with a chic, sophisticated interior that was just lovely. The best part was the window, which gave us a private, panoramic view of Beppu Bay. Guests of the Sora-kan wing also get exclusive access to 'Sora-yu,' a scenic rooftop onsen. It has a much calmer and more intimate atmosphere compared to the main 'Tanayu' baths, allowing you to enjoy the view in a more private setting. The dining was also a special experience, with a dedicated restaurant for Sora-kan guests serving a magnificent buffet.

  • More Than an Onsen: A Full-Blown Spa & Entertainment Resort!

  • While the Suginoi Hotel has a fantastic view from its scenic open-air bath, that's just the beginning of the fun. They have "The Aqua Garden," an outdoor hot spring park where you can wear swimsuits. At night, it completely transforms with a spectacular fountain show synchronized to music and lights. Watching this dynamic show while relaxing in the warm onsen water feels like you're at a world-class resort's nightly entertainment event. But that's not all! There are events all over the hotel, like projection mapping shows, so there's always something happening to keep you entertained all day. It's the perfect place if you want to enjoy a healing onsen experience while also having an active, fun-filled stay.

  • The View from the 'Tanayu' Onsen is Absolutely Breathtaking

  • The "Tanayu," the signature open-air onsen at the Suginoi Hotel, is the very definition of a spectacular infinity bath. It's designed with five tiers of baths that spread out like terraced rice paddies (tanada). The feeling of merging with the panoramic view of Beppu Bay and the city below is so beautiful it will leave you speechless. I especially recommend going in the morning. Watching the sun rise over Beppu Bay while you soak in the warm water is a truly moving experience. At night, the view transforms again as the city lights glitter and sparkle, offering a stunning scene you could gaze at all day and never get tired of.

  • hot spring and hot spring pools are infinity

  • Suginoi Hotel is the most famous hotel in Beppu. Both the hot spring and the hot spring pool are infinity. It is located at a high place, so the view is excellent. As the name suggests, Tanayu has a 5-story structure and has an indoor bath, a semi-open-air bath, and an open-air bath. There are many types of hot spring pools, so you can enjoy them in various ways.

AMANE RESORT SEIKAI (SHIOSAI NO YADO SEIKAI)

6-24 Shouningahama,

  • The Ultimate Luxury: Every Room with an Ocean View & Private Onsen

  • At AMANE RESORT SEIKAI, every single room has a stunning ocean view, and even better, each one comes with its own private open-air onsen. There's truly nothing more luxurious than being able to soak in your bath and enjoy that incredible scenery all to yourself, whenever you want, for as long as you want. If you're someone who wants to relax and truly values your privacy, I honestly think this is the perfect hotel for you. Of course, the main public bath is also amazing—it has a spectacular infinity view that makes you feel like you're floating right in Beppu Bay.

  • Become One with the Ocean at this Sea-Level Infinity Onsen

  • The infinity onsen at Harumi is called "Shiosai no Yu" (The Sound of the Tides), and it truly lives up to its name. It’s a stunning onsen experience that makes you feel like you're literally bathing in the ocean itself. Located right at sea level, the surface of the onsen seems to merge seamlessly with the waters of Beppu Bay. There's absolutely nothing to obstruct your view. The time I spent soaking in the bath, gazing out at nothing but the vast sky and the calm sea, was the ultimate detox for my soul. I highly recommend going at dusk—the way the colors of the sky constantly shift is breathtaking. The only sound is the gentle lapping of the waves. It's a wonderful place to truly and deeply relax.

Hakone Kowakien TEN-YU

1297 Ninotaira, Ashigarashimogun

  • True Bliss: A Hakone Ryokan Where Every Room Has a Private Onsen

  • You have to check out Tenyu in Hakone! The amazing thing is that every single room comes with its own beautiful open-air onsen bath, made from traditional Shigaraki pottery. It was the ultimate luxury to be able to soak in my private bath on the balcony, feeling the crisp, fresh air of the mountains. It's your own little sanctuary. While the main public infinity onsen is stunning, there's something truly special about enjoying the high-quality spring water in the comfort of your own room, anytime you please. My favorite way to relax there: after a long soak, just sit out on the balcony chairs and peacefully take in the view. It's absolute bliss.

  • A Heavenly Onsen Overlooking the Majestic Hakone Mountains

  • The main public bath at Hakone Kowakien Ten-yu is called "Uki-gumo no Yu" (The Bath of Floating Clouds), and it is truly an infinity onsen in the sky. Perched high on the mountainside, it offers a completely unobstructed, panoramic view. As you soak in the water, you get the incredible sensation of blending right into the majestic scenery of the Hakone caldera's outer peaks. The sight of the mountains illuminated by the morning sun is so beautiful it will honestly touch your soul. At night, you can bathe while gazing up at a sky full of stars, allowing you to completely forget the hustle and bustle of the city and feel refreshed. The scenery reveals a completely different character depending on the time of day, which will make you want to go back for a soak again and again.

  • Tenyu's luxurious cuisine and infinity outdoor baths will leave you in heaven for body and soul

  • The food is of the highest quality, beautiful to look at and delicious in the kaiseki dinner. The sashimi, including fish, shrimp, and turban shells, as well as the steak, tempura, and fresh salad are all delicious. Buffet breakfast the next day has a wide variety of options, and it's also fun to make your own seafood bowl. In the daytime, the infinity bath has Breathtaking view that blends in with the background, making you feel as if you're floating in the air, but at night, you get the illusion of being sucked into the starry sky. You're sure to have a wonderful time.

The Lake view TOYA Nonokaze resort

29-1 Toyako Onsen, Toyako-cho, Abuda-Gun

  • Hotel on the shores of Lake Toya

  • Lake Toya is right in front of you, so when you soak in the open-air bath, it looks like the water is flowing down onto the lake. There is also a large bathhouse in the style of a Showa-era public bath, which has a completely different atmosphere and is interesting. Overall, the hotel has a modern Japanese feel, making it a relaxing place to stay.

Akou Onsen Yuubaenoyado Ginpaso Ryokan

2-8 Misaki, Ako-shi

  • Enjoy the Seto Inland Sea in an infinity world

  • This hot spring inn is located in Ako, and from the open-air bath in the large communal bath you can enjoy Breathtaking view view of the Seto Inland Sea. There are no fences in front of the infinity bath, and it is one with the sea and sky. I was able to relax with the sound of the waves as background music. The indoor bath is made of glass, so you can enjoy the view of the sea from inside the bath as well. The food is a kaiseki meal with plenty of fresh fish, which is unique to Ako. The sashimi is also excellent. The specialty, salt-grilled sea bream, is a taste that can only be found here. There are rooms facing the sea and the mountains, and I chose the sea side, so I could see the sea from my room. It was a wonderful inn where I could relax.

Tsunagi Onsen Hotel Shion

74-2 Yunodate, Tsunagi

  • Lake Gosho and hot spring infinity

  • Enjoy the comfort of a hot spring bath while admiring the magnificent Gosho Lake that spreads out before your eyes. We recommend Hotel Shion in Tsunagi Onsen, Iwate Prefecture. This wonderful hot spring hotel is less than 30 minutes by car from Morioka Station. You can enjoy the luxury of beautiful lake views from all rooms. The open-air bath "Hitorijime no Yu" is especially comfortable as you can admire the lake. If the weather is good, you can also admire the beautiful Mt. Iwate across the lake. The highly alkaline hot spring water also has skin-beautifying effects, so we especially recommend it for a reward trip or overnight stay♪
