Shirahone Onsen · Kamikochi Onsen × Popular Stays for Travel with BabyRecommended Hotel·Ryokan

“Sawando” means “a place where rivers meet.” In December 1998, Onsen water was brought to this area—long used as a gateway to Kamikochi—and Sawando Onsen was born. Our inn opened five years later, in July 2003. Surrounded by mountains and little else, Keiryuso Shiorie warmly welcomes you. We hope you will enjoy the nature, unwind from everyday fatigue, celebrate an anniversary with someone special, or treat yourself for all your hard work—we would be truly happy if you choose Shiorie for moments like these.

Since ancient times, it has been said that bathing in Shirahone Onsen for three days can prevent colds for three years. Tsuruya Ryokan offers the gentlest spring quality in Shirahone Onsen. Relax to the sound of the mountain stream and enjoy the milky white hues and sulfur aroma.

The property boasts a milky-white natural onsen and open-air baths available 24 hours. Separate open-air baths for men and women are provided, offering a unique experience of bathing under a starry sky. Dinner is renowned for its hotpot made with natural mushrooms harvested from the local mountains, featuring mushrooms personally gathered by the owner, along with Shinshu's specialty horse sashimi.
