This is the recommended Breathtaking view-air bath in Zao Onsen. The hotel's pride and joy, the open-air bath with a spectacular view, is located a little independent guest cottages from the hotel and you have to walk there. It is located a little higher, so it has an excellent sense of openness and view. The spring quality is so good that I walked there several times to take a bath. I was also pleased with the food and service at dinner, which was more than worth the price.ササラ's answer (Posted on:2020/7/ 6)

Be careful not to get water in your eyes when bathing.
- I recommend Zao Plaza Hotel. It is located halfway up the mountain and the view from the restaurant is amazing. The mountains are looming to the left and the lower world spreads out to the right. The food is prepared using local ingredients and is very satisfying. There is an open-air bath made of cypress. However, if the water gets into your eyes, it will hurt for a while, so be careful.アラート's answer (Posted on:2020/9/17)

Enjoy the cloudy water while taking in the great outdoors

If you're visiting Zao Onsen, we recommend Hotel Jurin, a famous hot spring resort surrounded by nature. It is part of the Takamiya Hotel Group, a long-established hot spring resort that has been in business for over 300 years, and has a very high level of satisfaction. This hotel is located on the slopes, so you can enjoy Breathtaking view surrounded by nature and a view that will make you forget about the city. The hot spring water is cloudy, and the old-fashioned wooden bathtub gives it a sense of elegance. The meals are a Japanese-Western fusion meal of Yamagata brand meat, and the Yamagata beef steak is especially delicious!きりん's answer (Posted on:2019/6/ 9)
