  • A welcoming Accommodation with warm hospitality.

    Our first trip to Nasu-Shiobara.We had been looking forward to our stay very much.There were four of us: my 90-year-old mother, my husband and I in our 60s, and our daughter in her 30s.Everyone agreed that the Room, baths, and meals were all extremely satisfying. Our Room had a private open-air bath with free-flowing natural hot spring water, so my mother could soak many times with peace of mind. The spring quality was excellent as well—the hot water flowed continuously and left our skin feeling wonderfully smooth.The meals featured plenty of seasonal ingredients, were beautifully presented, and had gentle flavors—absolutely satisfying.It was such a wonderful Accommodation that our whole family agreed we definitely want to return during the autumn foliage season.

  • Healing Accommodation

    It was our first stay at this Accommodation, and as a long-established Ryokan it fully met our expectations—excellent hospitality, service, cuisine, and a superb free-flowing Onsen straight from the source. We were completely satisfied, and it has become one of the Ryokan we would like to visit again.The only slight disappointment was that since it was a Japanese-style room, we were a bit concerned about how the futons were laid out.Stayed on 2026.8.16

Nasu Highlands

Historic Nasu Onsen Sanraku

"Visited by Emperor Showa"

A traditional Ryokan with over 100 years of history, quietly nestled in the renowned summer retreat of Nasu Highlands. Located near the Nasu Imperial Villa, Sanraku holds a special place in history. When Emperor Showa (then Crown Prince) visited Sanraku, he was deeply impressed by the magnificent view of the Nasu Plain and planned the establishment of the Imperial Villa. Enjoy this same breathtaking scenery during your stay.

【Accommodation Loved by Artists】

A poem by Akiko Yosano, composed at Sanraku, remains preserved, and the location has been cherished by many writers and artists, including Kan Kikuchi. Poem by Akiko Yosano: "It is so cold as if snow falls on Mount Kunlun; when ill, even the snow of Nasu feels like my own." "In purple spring winds blow across kabuki curtains; I thought deeply of you in the folds of your name."
