YAMATO THE SEASONS Sugatanionnsenn
Shiga Prefecture/Sugatani OnsenA secluded mountain Accommodation, a reddish-brown Onsen, seasonal kaiseki cuisine throughout the year, and a soothing retreat
A secluded Accommodation in the mountains, featuring an iron-rich bicarbonate Onsen with a reddish-brown hue. Enjoy a large communal bath and an open-air bath, along with kaiseki cuisine and hot pot dishes that highlight seasonal flavors throughout the year. Choose from rooms with a private open-air bath, rooms with a jacuzzi, and Japanese-style rooms—so you can unwind at your leisure in a soothing space. The free-flowing natural spring water is said to have been used by Sengoku-era warriors to heal their wounds, and its benefits are well regarded. Savor kaiseki dishes that combine the best of each season with local specialties from this area.
I found Sugatani Onsen while looking for an Accommodation where I could stay with my pet, without knowing the name beforehand. It was very comfortable. I brought pet pads, but if possible, I would like you to provide some spares. There is no need to lay out the futon during meals; I worry my dog might bark, so it makes me more concerned. The air conditioner noise felt a little loud. The meals were very delicious. It is a quiet location away from the crowds.
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 7/20/2026Traveling with three dogs meant we had a lot of luggage, so thank you for kindly accommodating us—lending us a cart and allowing us to come to meals at staggered times.\n\nIt was a bit disappointing to find two spots of dirt from a previous dog’s mess on the veranda, but since we were traveling with dogs as well, it didn’t bother us much.\n\nOverall, we had a very comfortable stay and would love to visit again.

Our Onsen has long been cherished as the first in the prefecture to offer 100% free-flowing natural hot spring water. Rich in iron, our “bicarbonate iron spring” turns reddish-brown when exposed to air and has been loved for generations as a renowned hot spring. Relax in our open-air bath nestled among the mountains of Mount Kotaniyama, and enjoy a soothing soak while taking in the beauty of nature through every season.

We offer local cuisine that makes the most of Lake Biwa’s bounty, locally grown produce, and the unique character of the region. So that every guest can truly experience the area’s charm, we go beyond simply using local ingredients to serve dishes rooted in its history and culture. Please enjoy our meals, prepared with heartfelt hospitality and a deep connection to the community.

We offer a wide variety of Room types, mainly Japanese-style, ranging from standard options to spacious two-room suites, Japanese-Western Rooms (with beds), and Rooms with semi-open-air baths. We also provide barrier-free Rooms and dedicated Rooms where you can stay with your pet. We support a comfortable stay tailored to each guest’s needs.
