Thank you very much for your hospitality.The property was thoroughly cleaned down to the smallest details, and I was able to relax.Fresh flowers were displayed in the Room, and although it faced the mountain side, we could still see the fireworks. It had a lovely atmosphere.The sauna temperature was not too high and felt just right. The cold water was also not too cold, which was great.I would love to stay again.Thank you very much.
ルリ 9/1/2026This was our first stay, and both my spouse and I were very satisfied. The Room was spacious, there were many baths, and the breakfast buffet had a wide variety of dishes. We would like to stay again. Next time, we would like to include dinner as well.

Introduction of the Accommodation
Relax on a hot spring journey exuding Japanese elegance along the banks of the Hida River.
Gero Onsen has healed the hearts and bodies of many people throughout its long history. We hope to be a hot spring destination cherished by young people, appreciating nature's blessings and preserving what our predecessors have built. Our joy lies in our guests experiencing the four seasons of Gero, relieving daily fatigue, and wholeheartedly enjoying extraordinary moments.
Alongside Kusatsu and Arima, Gero Onsen is one of Japan's three famous hot springs. Discovered during the Enki era (901–923 AD), it was renowned as a healing hot spring and reportedly attracted 30,000 visitors annually during the Edo period. The name is said to originate from the establishment of the "Shimotome Station" on the official road connecting Kyoto to Hida, which eventually evolved into "Gero."
The Origin of Suimeikan
In Showa 5, with the opening of Gero Station on the Takayama Line, the predecessor foresaw the development of the hot spring area 'Gero' and decided to purchase land in the Koda district to operate a Ryokan. On June 25, Showa 7, our property opened along the Hida River. The name of the Ryokan was decided as Suimeikan, symbolizing the steam of hot water rising from clear water, combining 'water' and 'brightening'. It became a fitting name for a Japanese Ryokan born in this picturesque location.
