Savor a soothing moment of pure relaxation as you indulge to your heart’s content in our mineral-rich hot spring waters that warm you from within.

Kintaro Onsen, named with the hope of revitalizing visitors like the legendary Kintaro, offers a unique blend of chloride and sulfur springs, which is rare even in Japan. The 100% natural free-flowing hot spring water, with a temperature around 75°C, is rich in minerals and highly effective for health benefits. This area is also famous as the site where mystical mirages appear. Nearby attractions include the Kurobe Gorge Railway, Unazuki Onsen, and the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route connecting Shinano-Omachi to Toyama—offering abundant natural beauty and sightseeing opportunities. With the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen line, new stations such as "Toyama Station," "Shin-Takaoka Station," and "Kurobe-Unazuki Onsen Station" have been established within Toyama Prefecture, making travel between Tokyo and Toyama much more convenient.

  • We stayed here to celebrate my best friend’s birthday. The Room was spacious, and it was great to be able to use two baths—one for day-use guests and one for overnight guests. The meals were delicious, and we were very happy to receive a birthday gift at the time dessert was served at dinner. We also enjoyed having a birthday party in the Room.Since we checked out at 7:15 a.m. to go to the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, we would like to stay longer next time.Thank you very much.

  • The Onsen is amazing!If you look for them, you can find various small issues, but the Onsen makes up for everything.I just wish there were more rooms with a private Onsen.
