FEATURE

WHAT WE ARE

Ⅰ

Onsen

Private onsen are the perfect place to wind down after a day of hiking. Please refresh yourself at our 100% natural hot spring without any filtration or additives.

Ⅱ

Kodo

Yunomine Onsen, which is the gateway to Kumano Kodo Pilgrimage Routes bound for Kumano Hongu Taisha. It takes about 70 minutes to Hogu Taisha through Dainichi-goe.

Ⅲ

Nature

Since it is located in deep mountains, the abundant nature is attractive. Enjoy the sky full of stars in the clear night sky, wild animals such as deers and monkeys etc.

Ⅳ

Nostalgia

The shared living room where the afternoon sun penetrates is Japanese style with tatami mats. We put a kotatsu in winter. You can experience the atmosphere of the Japanese countryside.

Ⅴ

Cleanliness

The facilities are not up-to-date as it is an aged building, but we try to keep the inside of the building and the rooms as clean as possible.

Ⅵ

Inexpensive

The service is simpler than a hotel's, so the room rate is cheaper. It is also recommended for solo tourists, couples and families with kids.

REVIEWS

WHAT GUESTS SAY

Good point

Absolutely loved the private onsens, traditional Japanese common space, complimentary drinks/rice, and kind staff. It's quite rare to get access to a private outdoor onsen - especially at a hostel - so that was definitely a highlight. Great atmosphere in all senses!

Bad point

it was all great, the only thing is when people don't think of others and walk around the room on the upper floor like an elephant, (you can hear it in the dorm down below) maybe just to give the hint to future guests that it would be great for all, if one would think of others. :)

Good point

Extremely well maintained & clean. Staff was also kind enough and had offered the option to use the room / facilities (until my bus arrived) even after my check out, given the circumstance.

Bad point

Parking space was only for 4 cars. So we had to go to public parking which was 5 minutes walking distance.

Good point

Cooking my meal in their lovely and so well-organized kitchen and then enjoying it with a cold beer in their traditional Japanese sitting area was just lovely. I staid in the women capsule rooms; very spacious and comfortable.

Bad point

In the evening when most guests were back from hiking, the onsen baths and kitchen got very crowded (need to queue for the baths) so plan your time wisely.
