Ukiha Annex Shinshiyou

My parents stayed here twice about 7–8 years ago, and this time I visited on a solo trip. The stairs to the open-air bath were pretty tough, but I enjoyed six rounds of Onsen hopping between the in-Room Onsen and the Onsen in the building!! Everything was great! Meals were served in a private dining room, so I could relax and eat without worrying about others. At check-out, I also received a small gift with a message, which made me very happy! My parents have become less steady on their feet now, so I’ll be coming back again on my own.

The room was very spacious and clean. The view from the window was wonderful, and I had the luxury of using the open-air bath in the large public bath on the second floor twice by myself, allowing me to enjoy a relaxing and indulgent time. The Onsen water was thick and smooth, making it incredibly pleasant. On that day, it seemed there were many guests, so we were guided to a conference room for meals. In terms of atmosphere, since it wasn't a space where we could enjoy outside views or ambiance, I feel that adding elements like soft music or dimmed lighting would have enhanced the experience if meals are served in such rooms again. The meal featured local cuisine; everything was delicious with generous portions, leaving us very satisfied. Amagase Onsen was absolutely fantastic!
