Urabandai Lake Resort - Goshiki no Mori

Fukushima Prefecture/Urabandai

A Resort Hotel about a 3-minute walk from Goshikinuma, offering natural hot-spring baths with free-flowing source water.

Urabandai, one of Tohoku’s most scenic areas surrounded by rich nature. Urabandai Lake Resort Hotel is an elegant Resort Hotel in the best location. Fully renovated in October 2015! Just a 3-minute walk to Goshikinuma Ponds. The free-flowing natural Onsen is known as a “beautifying bath,” rich in naturally occurring skin-friendly minerals. The open-air bath with panoramic views over Lake Hibara is also a guest favorite! For dining, top chefs from across Japan gather in Urabandai to showcase seasonal ingredients through buffet, Japanese kaiseki, and French cuisine.

  • It was busy because it was during the summer vacation season, but the bath was spacious, so it didn’t feel too crowded.The food was delicious, but I felt our table was a little far away.Overall, it was good!

  • With mountain ranges and a lake, it’s the perfect place to fully enjoy nature.The open-air bath at dusk and early in the morning was extremely satisfying.Both dinner and breakfast were delicious.Goshikinuma is just steps from the Hotel, and with great weather we enjoyed an amazing holiday.I’d love to visit again during the autumn foliage season.
