Satoyama Onsen Hatagoya Maruichi ~ A Retreat of 17 Detached Rooms to Enjoy the Extraordinary ~

Gunma Prefecture/Sarugakyo Onsen

A long-established Accommodation surrounded by art, with spacious guest rooms up to 110 m²

“Kura-no-Yu,” a renovated Meiji-era storehouse bath, offers a lukewarm soak in our private 36°C natural hot spring, along with guest Rooms set within a traditional Japanese house of white plaster and black lacquer finishes. Each Room is equipped with a massage chair, and we welcome you with relaxed, unobtrusive hospitality. Furnishings, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings are displayed throughout the property, creating an atmosphere like an art museum. For dining, savor creative cuisine made with local and seasonal ingredients to your heart’s content.

  • The peaceful, relaxing atmosphere left a strong impression. With the charm of an Edo-era establishment, this is a wonderful Accommodation where adults can unwind at a leisurely pace. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, and it was clear that each dish was prepared with great care. We enjoyed taking our time and savoring every bite. This time we stayed in a guest room with a private Onsen, so we could enjoy the Onsen as many times as we liked whenever we wanted—an incredibly luxurious experience. The water wasn’t too hot; it was slightly warm, just the right temperature for soaking slowly and comfortably. On the other hand, getting from the room to the large public bath or dining area requires walking outdoors, so it may feel a bit inconvenient in winter or on rainy days. Overall, this was an extremely satisfying Accommodation that I would recommend to anyone looking to relax in a quiet setting or fully enjoy excellent meals and an Onsen experience.

  • I looked for a good Accommodation in Gunma, my father’s hometown, to travel with my elderly parents. My husband and I have stayed here about twice before, and I really wanted to come again, so I made a Reservation. The Room, the meals, and the service from the staff are all excellent—this is a truly wonderful Accommodation. One thing only: I knew it wasn’t barrier-free, but moving around inside the Facility was still quite demanding for my father, who cannot walk without a cane. The buildings and atmosphere are so beautiful that I wondered whether adding ramps or handrails might spoil the charm… but it was disappointing to feel that this place may be difficult to use for guests who need assistance with walking. Other than that, everything was truly outstanding, and I would love to stay again. This time we stayed in the Room called “Kanho.”

Sarugakyo Onsen
Exterior
Sarugakyo Onsen
Founded in 1728, a traditional inn that lives on through the ages.

Sarugakyo Onsen is nestled amid abundant water and greenery, embraced by the mountains of Mikuni. Hatagoya Maruichi is located in one corner of this serene area. Founded in 1728, our Accommodation has witnessed nearly 300 years of history. Through changing times, it has remained a timeless place where travelers’ stories continue to unfold. Surrounded by magnificent nature and the breath of history, we invite you to spend a warm, relaxing time with us.

Room
A guest room where historic charm and comfort come together

Built on the timeless beauty of traditional craftsmanship—solid beams, pillars, and fine wood joinery—each guest room is uniquely adorned with Ryukyu tatami, yukimi shoji screens, and curated artworks and calligraphy. The special suites and detached villas feature private in-room Onsen baths, allowing you to enjoy an exceptional stay without concern for time or prying eyes. Listen to the gentle rustle of history in the trees and birdsong as you spend an extraordinary time immersed in nature, while relaxing in a warm, calming space that feels just like home.

Onsen
Unwind with a soothing soak in our private hot spring, “Satoyama Onsen.”

After nearly 300 years of running an Accommodation, Maruichi finally welcomed its long-held dream in 2024: pure natural water and its own Onsen source. Inside the property, we offer “Kura-no-Yu Hayashi,” a bath surrounded by the scent of wood, as well as in-room Onsen baths, all filled with our private spring, “Sarugakyo Mikuni Onsenkyo Satoyama Onsen.” As you gaze out at nature and surrender to the gentle waters, a deep sense of calm will wash over both body and mind. In this quiet setting, please enjoy a relaxing soak at your leisure.

Kaiseki Cuisine

Kaiseki Cuisine Featuring the Bounty of Gunma

We offer dishes made with local Gunma ingredients, such as Joshu beef sukiyaki, Joshu Mugibuta pork shabu-shabu, and fresh locally grown vegetables. Our kaiseki cuisine, which cherishes the blessings of the season, enriches your time away. Savor the flavors of each season along with the charm of our historic Accommodation.
