The Room was spacious and clean. Both dinner and breakfast were of excellent quality and quantity, leaving us very satisfied. The parking lot allowed early arrival and late departure, which was very convenient. All the staff members were extremely kind; thank you very much for your hospitality. We would love to stay again if we have the chance!
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 10/14/2025The room was a bit old but very clean. The staff were all polite and provided clear explanations about the Onsen facilities. It was fun to have help with wearing the yukata. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, and we were very satisfied. The beef tongue kamakura and Yoka pork shabu-shabu were especially tasty. After check-out, they kindly stored our luggage while we visited the Onsen, which was very helpful. The price was quite reasonable, and everything was excellent, so I would love to stay here again if I visit Kinosaki Onsen.

Introduction of the Accommodation









Yanagisou offers Japan's only specialty, the "Kani Kamakura" (trademarked) grilled crab! This exquisite dish features fresh whole crab wrapped in special salt and carefully grilled to perfection. Enjoy this unique delicacy exclusively at Yanagisou! Seasonal original variations such as "Fish Kamakura" and "Beef Tongue Kamakura" also make limited-time appearances. You can even experience making your own original Kani Kamakura during dinner—perfect for families or couples to try together! Breaking open the salt crust with a wooden mallet just before eating adds to the fun. For breakfast, don't miss our popular dish, "Kani Bonbori," a flavorful ochazuke made with rice topped with shredded crab meat and served with our secret dashi broth.




Yanagiso is located almost in the center of the Onsen town, making it a very convenient base for enjoying Kinosaki Onsen's famous "Soto-yu Meguri" (hot spring hopping). The charm of Kinosaki Onsen lies in its nostalgic and picturesque streets. Strolling through the town while experiencing hot spring hopping is one of the highlights. For our guests, we provide a Soto-yu Meguri Pass at check-in, allowing unlimited access to the public baths for free from check-in until 1:00 PM the next day.




Yanagiso offers three types of free private baths in Annex Kazan and two types in New Annex Tsuruyoshi. Each bath has a unique theme, such as one inspired by the cherry blossoms of Kinosaki or another by the scenic Genbudo Cave, allowing you to enjoy your preferred style. The private baths are not reservation-based; you may use them freely if they are vacant by locking the door behind you. Please note that the baths will be unavailable during facility closure days. Thank you for your understanding.





At Yanagi Inn, we offer a wide selection of colorful yukatas, perfect for enjoying the local hot spring tour! From vibrant designs to chic styles, you're sure to find your favorite. Pair your yukata with geta sandals and a basket for a stylish stroll around town! Men's yukatas and geta sandals are also available.






At Yanagi Inn, we offer a Baby Plan to support your baby's first trip! The room is equipped with a diaper disposal bin, baby wipes, nap mats, and more. Yanagi Inn is perfect for families with children as all private baths are free to use (no reservation required). We also provide baby baths, baby bath chairs, and baby soap so you can enjoy bath time with your little one at ease. Feel free to request assistance in warming up baby food.
