Enjoy dishes made with seasonal ingredients in a scenic Onsen area.
The Japanese-style property in a scenic onsen area is a 5-minute drive from JR Suma Station. Guests are welcomed with seasonal cuisine and heartfelt service. The large bathhouse with an open-air bath offers views of nature that change with the seasons. Additionally, there are 21 rooms of 60 square meters, comfortable for 4-5 adults. Barrier-free access is supported with an elevator. The dishes, lavishly prepared with seasonal ingredients, are visually appealing and well-received by a wide range of age groups.
The staff kindly served tea and provided an explanation of the facilities. Dinner was served in the Room, with warm dishes delivered warm. The rice was Sanda rice, which was moist and delicious, though it might not suit those who prefer firmer rice. The large public bath was quiet, allowing for a relaxing private experience. However, there were no handrails, so it would be great if they could be added. The open-air bath wasn’t very hot and felt a bit chilly. Still, I had a relaxing time overall, and breakfast was also delicious. I am very satisfied and would love to visit again. Thank you to the staff for their excellent hospitality!
