A unique accommodation boasting natural hot springs with a view of mountains and streams that change their beauty with each season.
Nestled in the nature-surrounded village of Totsukawa, this property features an Onsen with riverside open-air baths, star-gazing reclining baths, and private baths, offering eight types of baths with 24-hour continuous flow. Relax with the gentle aroma of sulfur.
The meals were all delicious, leaving us with very fond memories. It was a soft-shelled turtle course, and the price felt so reasonable that in Tokyo, accommodation would likely be charged separately. Although the building itself is old, it was well-maintained and did not bother us at all. Next time, we would like to have a multiple night stay. Thank you very much!
めろんぱん1986 7/22/2025The building shows some age, but the Onsen and meals are truly exceptional. The mikan chicken shabu-shabu, in particular, was outstanding. Both dinner and breakfast were served in just the right portions. The natural free-flowing Onsen has excellent quality and was incredibly refreshing. I had a deep sleep on the fluffy futon after a long time. While it lacks luxury, this place is highly recommended for those who value high-quality hot springs and delicious meals. I would love to stay here again!

Introduction of the Accommodation

Quietly situated at the source of Totsukawa Onsen, "Shimo-yu Onsen," is a traditional Japanese Ryokan with 35 years of history.

Onsen and bath
With views of "mountains" and "rivers," this open-air Onsen in Totsukawa is highly popular. Located at the source of Totsukawa Onsen, "Shimoyu Onsen," just 300 meters from the source, it maintains the quality, temperature, and freshness of the water. Due to the high temperature of the hot water, it is mixed with natural spring water from the premises, making it gentle on the skin and retaining warmth. Known as the "Beauty Bath," it is a simple spring rich in sodium, with a faint sulfur aroma that enhances the Onsen atmosphere.

All rooms are designed in a traditional Japanese tatami style.

We use "spring water" in our cooking to promote bodily health.

Other Facilities
The 500-tsubo site features a "clear stream" flowing through it, offering opportunities for river play and fishing.
