[5-minute walk from Genbikei] A historic Onsen Property ideal for Hiraizumi sightseeing, where you can enjoy natural Onsen and seasonal delicacies such as authentic Chinese cuisine and Maesawa beef.
The open-air bath and spacious large public bath, where you can feel the murmuring of Genbikei Gorge, are natural onsen known as "Bijin no Yu" (Beautiful Skin Water). In the calm atmosphere unique to a property with a long history, you can relax and soothe your travel fatigue. Meals include carefully selected dishes using ingredients such as authentic Chinese cuisine and Maesawa beef. It is just a 5-minute walk to Genbikei Gorge and about 17 minutes by car to the World Heritage Site Chuson-ji Temple, offering excellent access. Ideal as a base for sightseeing in Hiraizumi, perfect for family or group stays.
This is a stately, traditional Hotel. Even the hallway carpets evoke a sense of its history. The baths were very spacious and relaxing. Since a lift is installed on the stairs leading to the baths, they can be used by guests with limited mobility or elderly guests as well. The open-air bath was also wonderfully open, and we could hear the sound of the river flowing through Genbikei Gorge nearby, which made it especially relaxing. The meals were carefully prepared. Breakfast in particular featured a wide variety of items beautifully arranged, making it both delicious and enjoyable. As we traveled by Shinkansen this time, we really appreciated the Shuttle Service bus to Ichinoseki Station. We also heard that you place special emphasis on Chinese cuisine, so I would like to try it on our next stay.
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 9/4/2026Although it was the rainy season, we were able to fully enjoy Genbikei Gorge with reassuring weather.\nThe river surface was also visible from the Accommodation, which was wonderful. In addition, there is nothing to complain about regarding the meals and the Facility.\nWe plan to visit again.\nThank you very much.

Introduction of the Accommodation
Based in southern Iwate Prefecture and northern Miyagi Prefecture,
There are many tourist attractions representing Iwate and Miyagi prefectures, such as the World Heritage Site Hiraizumi, Morioka, Sendai, and Kesennuma. We recommend a sightseeing plan based at Itsukushien. ■ <World Heritage> Hiraizumi A group of buildings, gardens, and archaeological sites representing the Buddhist Pure Land. The "Cultural Heritage of Hiraizumi," registered in June 2011 (Heisei 23), consists of five assets. ■ Genbikei Gorge A scenic spot and natural monument. You can see contrasting scenery from the suspension bridge: the rough upstream flow and the gentle downstream pool, each offering seasonal beauty to enjoy. ■ Geibikei Gorge Counted among Japan's top 100 landscapes, Geibikei Gorge is a scenic spot loved by people of all ages throughout the year. ■ Mount Kurikoma An attractive scenic area visited by many people throughout the year. It is located in central Tohoku region and spans three prefectures: Miyagi, Iwate, and Akita. ■ Takkoku no Iwaya A rock cave where Sakanoue Tamuramaro enshrined Bishamonten to commemorate his conquest of barbarians. The entire precinct is designated as a historic site.

The traditional Japanese architecture, based on the beauty of Japanese tradition, is filled with elegance and warmth, creating a serene and calm atmosphere. The essence of "Iki" in Japanese style liberates the mind and fulfills a sense of tranquility.
Indulge in our carefully crafted dishes that lavishly use the bounties of the Michinoku mountains and the Sanriku sea, with a focus on local flavors, seasonal ingredients, and fresh tastes. Please savor our proud offerings.
