Dorogawa Onsen, a traditional property with over 500 years of history, filled with the warmth of wood.
Dorogawa Onsen, a historic hot spring that began as a lodging to host practitioners visiting the sacred peak "Ōmine-san," a World Heritage site. This is the oldest property in the area, with a history of 500 years. You can fully enjoy the unique nostalgia, charm, and culture of Dorogawa.
The service was attentive, and the locally sourced meals were delicious. Although it took some time to get there, we had a wonderful stay where we could truly experience the great outdoors and the purity of the water.
陀羅尼助さん 7/9/2026After viewing the cherry blossoms in Yoshino, we stayed in Naramachi and used this Accommodation the following day. When we arrived, the rain had just stopped, and we were able to fully enjoy the Onsen until dinner. We came by car, and thank you for providing Shuttle Service to the parking lot. We stayed in “West Sky,” which was on the 4th floor, so going up and down was quite tough on our bodies after walking around Yoshino (lol). In the end, we mostly stayed on the 2nd floor—just moving between meals, the Onsen, and our Room—and only went down to the 1st floor after dinner to go out briefly. The wood balcony in our Room was very pleasant, and we were able to relax comfortably. It was perfect for enjoying a slow stay at this Accommodation. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much.
