Shirahone Onsen has long been said to keep you from catching a cold for three years after just three days of bathing.

Our waters are a milky-white “Silk Bath,” known as one of the gentlest in Shirahone Onsen, with an exceptionally smooth feel on the skin. We provide an easy-to-follow bathing guide even for first-time guests, and suggest ways to enjoy the baths to suit your needs—along with moments of relaxation in our post-bath lounge—so that simply staying here helps you reset. Unwind body and mind tightened by everyday busyness, and experience how much lighter you can feel with a one-night, two-day stay.
