"Steps from one of Japan’s oldest mineral springs at Yonomine Onsen, this guest house offers warm, timber‑accented tatami rooms and multiple bathing options including eight indoor wooden baths and a private open‑air bath; many pilgrims perform water‑purification rituals at the nearby spring before setting out on adjacent Akagi‑goe and Dainchi‑goe trailheads. Breakfast is included, with generous lunch and dinner sets available for purchase, making it a restorative base for nearby hikes." - Lara Dalinsky
