The charm of the traveler's property and new hospitality, relax in the hinoki open-air bath, and savor the mountain's delights.
As a property with a long history as a lodging for travelers, it offers a serene ambiance and heartfelt cuisine. It features the only onsen open-air bath in a room at Dorogawa Onsen, where you can relax in a hinoki wooden open-air bath. Additionally, the spacious rooms are suitable for families or groups. At the bottom of the ceramic open-air bath, there is a single character '笑', bringing smiles from the heart in a tranquil setting. You can also enjoy dishes prepared with abundant mountain and river delicacies.
Although my check-in was delayed due to work on the day of my stay, you kindly picked me up at the station, which was a great help. The room was spotless and very comfortable, and all the staff were exceptionally kind. Your thoughtful attention and warm smiles made it truly the best hospitality I had been looking forward to. Thank you so much!!
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 3/29/2026I stayed here for the first time in decades. It was relaxing, and the Onsen and meals were excellent!Everything was perfect, but it was disappointing that the washbasin was cracked. It still worked fine, so it wasn’t a problem, but…I’d love to stay again.

Introduction of the Accommodation




Kakujin was completely destroyed in the Dorogawa Great Fire once in the 1830s and twice in the 1940s. Tracing its origins is extremely challenging, but investigations have been conducted based on evidence and information from other sources. Notably, inscriptions on stone monuments confirm dates from the early Genroku era. However, while it is presumed to have existed before Genroku, due to lack of confirmation, it is currently regarded as having been established in the first year of Genroku (1688).


Please enjoy our pride, "Jinshiro Gozen," the specialty "Pure Water Tofu," and the classic "Wild Boar Hot Pot."
