Onsen Facilities & Amenities
Bathing Experience & Onsen Etiquette
Your onsen journey at Yunohana Resort Suisen allows you to experience the therapeutic benefits of natural hot springs in complete privacy. Each guest room features its own open-air bath fed directly by simple alkaline spring water, known for its gentle pH balance that soothes tired muscles and leaves skin remarkably soft and renewed. For a special experience, reserve the resort's outdoor rock bath—a secluded natural stone onsen nestled among seasonal foliage where you can soak beneath the open sky without concern about tattoo visibility. The water temperature is maintained at approximately 41°C (106°F), perfect for extended relaxation while listening to the gentle sounds of the surrounding forest and mountain streams.
