  • Shunjuan Hasshokaku Mizunowo
  • Any recommendations for a good onsen near Nagoya that's easy to get to by train?

My friend and I are doing a foodie trip to Nagoya and would love to unwind at an onsen ryokan afterwards. Any suggestions for a relaxing place that's less than a 90-minute train journey away?

Shunjuan Hasshokaku Mizunowo

6-264,Unuma-minami-machi,Kagamihara-city

  • Great Views of Inuyama Castle and the Kiso River

  • This ryokan is fantastic. It's just a single, 40-minute train ride from Nagoya Station, making it super convenient. The highlight is the unbeatable view of Inuyama Castle, which you can see from both the room and the rotenburo (open-air bath)! With the Kiso River flowing right in front, it's incredibly peaceful. The multi-course kaiseki dinner was a culinary delight, featuring amazing dishes like grilled salmon with hoba miso. Highly recommended.

  • About 40 minutes from Nagoya

  • How about "Hasshokaku Mizunowo"? It is a 7-minute walk from "Inuyama-Yuen Station" on the Meitetsu Inuyama Line, and about 40 minutes from Nagoya. The inn overlooks Inuyama Castle. The bath has an open-air bath facing the Kiso River, and you can enjoy a garden-like view. For meals, you can enjoy kaiseki cuisine made with seasonal ingredients.

  • Indulge in the Luxury of a 100% Pure, Free-Flowing Natural Hot Spring

  • Why not visit Aqua Ignis in Mie's Yunoyama Onsen? It's a serene sanctuary for your skin and soul, just 80 minutes from Nagoya by train. The onsen is famous as 'Bijin-no-Yu' (Water of the Beauties) for a reason—it's 100% pure, free-flowing hot spring water with no extra water or heat added, leaving your skin unbelievably silky-smooth. You can spend a quiet, luxurious time gazing out at a tranquil bamboo grove from the open-air bath. After the onsen has soothed your travel fatigue, the perfect finishing touch is indulging in exquisite sweets from the renowned on-site pastry chef.

  • An Onsen Ryokan to Savor the Freshest Seafood of Ise Bay

  • For this ryokan facing Ise Bay, it's all about the fresh bounty of the sea. Its greatest pride is its kaiseki cuisine, a true masterpiece featuring the catch of the day alongside luxurious ingredients like Ise-ebi (spiny lobster) and abalone—it is, in a word, exquisite. Of course, the onsen is equally wonderful. The spectacular ocean view from the open-air bath is the perfect backdrop, and the healing properties of the natural hot spring are sure to soothe both body and mind after your incredible meal.

Hotel Takeshima

1-6 Takeshima-Cho, Gamagori

  • An all-ocean view hotel located an hour away from Nagoya

  • We recommend this hotel in Gamagori Onsen, where you can enjoy a hot spring bath and do some sightseeing. It's easy to get to from Nagoya Station, taking about an hour. They also provide a free shuttle from Gamagori Station. Mikawa Bay stretches out in front of the hotel, and you can see the ocean from the guest rooms, large communal bath, and open-air bath, which is very beautiful and relaxing. The hot spring water is good for your skin, and you can also choose a room with an open-air bath. Near the hotel, there are tourist spots such as the resort complex Laguna Ten Bosch, Takeshima, and Takeshima Aquarium.

Usyounoie Sugiyama Hotel

73-1 Nagara, Gifu

  • A Japanese-style inn on the banks of the Nagara River in Gifu Prefecture

  • The inn is located about an hour from JR Nagoya Station. In stark contrast to the city of Nagoya, this inn is located on the top of Mt. Kinka, on the gentle flow of the clear Nagara River. From the open-air bath, which boasts a view of Gifu Castle and the best scenery along the Nagara River, you can also enjoy the scenery from the large open-air bath, where high-quality hot spring water flows to the brim, creating a sense of openness. As the inn is designated as a nationally important cultural landscape, "Gifu's Cultural Landscape in the Midstream Area of the Nagara River," the view from the rooms is also soothing. Some rooms have open-air baths, and the meals are kaiseki cuisine, unique to an inn run by a family of cormorant fishermen who eat rare wild sweetfish from the Nagara River.

Ishikin Ryokan

112, Nagara

  • An inn boasting views of the Nagara River and Mt. Kinka

  • It's in Gifu Prefecture, but it's convenient because it's about an hour by train from Nagoya Station. There are about 14 rooms, but the views of the Nagara River and Kinka Mountain are wonderful. You can also see Gifu Castle from the open-air bath. It's a reasonable inn with a room rate of around 10,000 yen, where you can relax without being too pretentious.
