“A sanctuary of serenity found only here” — a secluded retreat in the mountains of Minamiuonuma

A hidden Onsen accommodation nestled in the tranquil mountains of Minamiuonuma, featuring a natural sodium chloride and bicarbonate spring. The smooth "lotion-like water" is known for its beauty-enhancing properties and is suitable for alleviating conditions such as atopy, cold sensitivity, and joint pain. Fully renovated in June 2025, the facility offers pet-friendly rooms and private baths ideal for families with small children, catering to various needs. Enjoy a warm stay with local cuisine made from Minamiuonuma Koshihikari rice and other regional ingredients, paired with renowned Echigo sake. Surrounded by seasonal mountain views and serene silence, experience modern comfort blended with traditional charm that reflects the local culture. Our staff eagerly awaits your visit!

  • The property had been renovated last year, and it was lovely with a modern Japanese style. However, the lighting was too dim and felt a bit inconvenient, so it would have been nice to have adjustable lighting. Also, the bed was quite low and there was only a floor chair, which might be tough for elderly guests.The bath left my skin silky smooth, and the effect lasted even after I got home. Wonderful.Niigata edamame was offered as a welcome service—local produce really is delicious. The meals were also very tasty. There was a wide selection of alcohol, which I enjoyed. I’m grateful to the staff for accommodating my requests without showing any displeasure. Thank you very much.
