Asaba

From check-in to check-out, both my mind and body were truly refreshed. What surprised me most this time was the effectiveness of the Onsen. For the past year, I’ve had facial allergies and couldn’t wear makeup, but after returning home I noticed my skin condition had improved significantly. I believe Asaba’s Onsen even soothed my skin. I was so happy that I immediately made another Reservation for my next stay. I’m looking forward to visiting again.

We stayed here to celebrate the 60th birthday of two senior friends, a long-postponed occasion due to the global COVID-19 pandemic. We had a Multiple Night Stay, but we couldn’t Reserve the same Room for consecutive nights, so we ended up in different Rooms on the first and second nights—and it turned out to be the perfect choice.From the Matsukaze Room, we could look down on the Noh stage from the second floor, and the view from the window was truly breathtaking. The taiko performance on the water at dusk was also magnificent and very enjoyable.Of course, every dish was beautifully presented. We loved details such as red-and-white plum-blossom plates for plum season and sake cups decorated with illustrations of Mt. Fuji—there was something delightful with each course. Even the foam on our draft beer was shaped like Mt. Fuji!As you would expect from a Michelin three-star experience, every dish was thoughtfully crafted, and we enjoyed it wholeheartedly.The woman in charge of our Room provided attentive yet natural hospitality, which our senior guests greatly appreciated (especially impressive given her young age—I felt I should learn from her). It became a truly wonderful memory. Thank you very much to all of your staff for taking such great care of us.
