Chiaki Jinsentei

My wife and I took an Onsen trip for the first time in four years. This time, we chose Ikaho Onsen, which we had never visited before. When selecting our Accommodation, we were looking for a place where we could relax in a Room with an open-air bath, and we found “Chiaki Jinsen-tei” online. After actually staying there, we were able to relax far more than we had expected. The open-air bath was free-flowing, the water temperature was just right, and I enjoyed it many times. The Ryokan staff were also very courteous, and even though I am quite picky about food, I ended up eating every dish as if I had overcome my dislikes—it was all delicious.On the drive home, my wife and I said to each other that we would like to stay again! When the stay is so fulfilling, the entire trip becomes a wonderful memory.

This was my first stay at Chiaki Jinsentei. I have stayed at Accommodations in Ikaho Onsen many times, but Chiaki Jinsentei is the best.As for the Onsen, you won’t find many places where so much of the “Golden Bath” water overflows so abundantly. I was told that about 10% of the total hot spring volume of Ikaho Onsen is used at this Accommodation.You can also enjoy seven different baths, including a free private family bath.All staff were extremely courteous and attentive, which truly impressed me. After dinner and breakfast, they prepared fresh tea and chilled water for us, reminding me of what makes a long-established Ryokan so special.I would love to use this place again for family trips or class reunions.
