    [Room only] Plan. *Customers who choose on-site payment will be required to pay in cash on the day. Hot spring usage hours: 6:00-23:00 From 21:00 to 23:00, it is exclusively for hotel guests. This is the only hot spring inn in Obuse town that was loved by cultural figures from long ago, such as Katsushika Hokusai and Issa Kobayashi. Along with the rare black hot spring water, the hot water changes color depending on the day, from cloudy to green to clear and colorless, and is said to be effective against sensitivity to cold and neuralgia due to its warming effect. This is a plan that allows you to stay as a base for sightseeing in Shinshu with hot springs throughout the year, from the cool winter of Shinshu to the fresh greenery of spring, summer, and autumn full of seasonal flavors such as apples and chestnuts. 【bath】 Our hot springs are said to change color depending on the temperature and weather of the day. However, the exact cause of the color change has not been elucidated. No matter how many times you visit, you will never get tired of this hot spring, which offers a variety of different expressions. Because the hot spring water at our hotel comes out at a relatively low temperature of 42 degrees, we adjust the temperature to an appropriate temperature. We also accept day trip bathers, and during the day, we are patronized by many people, including local residents.
