Shirakami Yatate Yugen Village Inn Hikage Onsen

This was my first stay here.Above all, the Onsen were outstanding. I was able to enjoy a variety of baths— a clear, colorless iron-rich spring in the Room, a thick mixed sulfur and carbonated spring, and a gentle sulfur spring— and I was completely satisfied. The traditional Japanese meals made with mountain ingredients were also very delicious and easy on the stomach. I’m also grateful for the warm hospitality and smiles from all the staff.I would love to visit again. Thank you very much.

In a word: extremely satisfied!The Room is spacious, and while it has a bit of a Showa-era feel that can make some things less convenient, it has been nicely updated overall.The Onsen is milky white with a sulfur scent—truly feels like an Onsen.Dinner was delicious, incorporating Akita’s local cuisine very well. For breakfast, you can choose Hinai-jidori chicken rice porridge or steamed white rice, and the side dishes are plentiful.It’s not ideal for families with small children. Recommended for adults or couples who want to relax at a leisurely pace.Just one thing: the air-conditioning noise at night carries a bit. If you turn it off, though, it’s fine.This is an Accommodation I’d love to return to after a long time.
