Founded around 400 years ago, this is a quiet inn that was once a Sake brewery in the Edo period.
The quiet hot spring village surrounded by mountains has had a temple since before 1280 and was the “cure land” where water sprung forth. This facility was long used for brewing Sake but its business was changed to an inn in the Edo period and it is currently run by the 24th generation of the family.
The clean and pure spring water that creates original local Sake and fresh local vegetables that are used in the cuisine has a good reputation.
Its history is long. It is also famous as a “fertility bath” due to the fact that 2 of the concubines of Ieyasu Tokugawa Shogun fell pregnant during their visit for a hot spring cure. The film director Akira Kurosawa known as the “World’s Kurosawa” and the painter Taro Okamoto both long enjoyed this onsen and there is also a connection with the writer of “The Dancing Girl of Izu”, Yasunari Kawabata, a literary master.
The charm of a source that has flowed from time immemorial, cuisine made from local sea and mountain produce and nature overflowing with tranquility. In addition, the simple “spirit of hospitality” that has long and unchangingly welcomed travellers continues to attract many people.
