Tenryukyo Onsen Hidden Inn in the Valley Kyosen
Nagano Prefecture/Tenryukyo GorgeA secluded, 8-room Accommodation nestled along the Tenryukyo Gorge.
Surrounded by the Tenryu-Okumikawa Quasi-National Park, this Accommodation stands on a promontory overlooking the Tenryukyo Gorge, with the Tenryu River below shifting colors from moment to moment. Embraced by breathtaking natural beauty, accompanied by birdsong and the resonant sound of flowing water, your mind gently melts into nature. Dining features creative Japanese cuisine—an enchanting story brought to life through Chinese poetry inspired by the gorge’s extraordinary rock formations. Soak in an Onsen as smooth as a beauty serum infused with nature, and feel both body and mind renewed. A journey that awakens your senses and reconnects you with your true self. A hidden retreat for adults—one you may want to keep secret.
From the daybed in our Room, we could see the white rock faces of Tenryukyo Gorge and the green river, and enjoyed a truly luxurious time. Dinner was especially memorable, with each course served to follow the highlights of Tenryukyo Gorge, making it fun to dine while imagining the scenery. Local ingredients such as handmade soba, caviar (the staff explained it is farmed in Iida), and yukimasu trout were beautifully presented and a delight to look at as well.The large public bath has only an indoor bath and is not very spacious, but it also faces Tenryukyo Gorge, so we could see the river from the bath and relax in the Onsen.Thank you very much for a comfortable stay.
nebo-san 8/1/2026Surrounded by the natural beauty of Minami-Shinshu, we were able to spend a relaxing time in a peaceful setting.Most impressive of all was the cuisine. Every dish, made with local ingredients, was carefully prepared and truly moving with each course. We have stayed at many Accommodations while traveling, but this was so wonderful that we would love to come back just for the food.It was a lovely Accommodation that made us want to return in another season. Thank you very much.

Introduction of the Accommodation

From the window, enjoy the ever-changing seasonal scenery of Tenryukyo. The bath features gently silky free-flowing hot spring water from the source (heated). From a semi-open-air bath that blends into the gorge to an indoor bath where you can immerse yourself in quiet serenity. Spend a peaceful time in Rooms, each with its own unique character.

Tenryukyo Onsen envelops you in a silky, serum-like warmth. Naturally rich in radon, the water absorbs smoothly into the skin, earning its reputation as a “beautifying bath.” Enjoy the four seasons of the gorge reflected on the surface of the water. Experience nature’s healing beyond what any ingredient list can describe—and the lingering softness of your skin after your soak.

A mesmerizing culinary world inspired by ten classical Chinese poems associated with the striking rock formations of Tenryukyo Gorge. Savor the abundant blessings of Southern Shinshu as you embark on a gastronomic journey, like drifting down the gorge in a small boat. Enjoy our one-of-a-kind creative Japanese cuisine, where each dish captures vivid scenery and delicate flavors.

Soft jazz drifts through a modern lobby lounge overlooking a four-season garden through the windows. Choose a book from the library and your favorite drink. Enjoy unhurried moments in this refined adult space, just as you please.
